By American politics, I am a liberal.

In Australia though, the liberal party is the equivalent of the American conservative party, lol, just thought I'd put that out there in case it hasn't already been said

How interesting. Their "liberal" party is the right-wing party as their "conservative" party is the left-wing party, when in America, it's the other way around.

Oh, and in the 1860's to 1940's, the Republicans were the liberals and the Democrats were the conservatives. Since the 1970's, the Democrats were the liberals and the Republicans were the conservatives.

The one dimensional left-right spectrum is pretty bad. Most people are more complex than that. I guess it works for America though, since only having two parties makes mostly everything either "left" or "right" by default.

Our liberal party (here in Sweden) are actually part of the block to the right.
