To Skymaster, the number one reason i feel to be considered a Liberal, is that you try to see the big picture overall. I find a lot of people who say they are conservative a lot of agression and hate toward people who happen to be a little different. The indifference is not limited to way of thinking, but toward a persons skin color.
As an African=American who fought in the Viet Nam war, I was very offended when he APPEARED to endorse the segregation platform that Strom Thurmond ran on when ran for president. Senator Lott created this negativism on his on and not from what someone else said about him.
Al Gore's father and Robert Bird are what would be a blue dog are yellow dog conservative democrats, more of what would be a republican lite.Al Gore's father and Robert Bird or not liberal!
