What do you consider yourself to be?
Please use the most specific term you can.
Also, what party do you usually vote for? (please list country)

Please, don't start arguments about ideologies, just answer the questions. Everyone is entitled to their opinion.

I'd say that the two people I'm most in line with are Cicero and Confucius.  Cicero's republic to be exact. 

One of the great things that Confucius realized is that all humans live in relationships, and that relationships are best managed through mutual obigations.  I owe my parents respect, they owe me support while I'm a child ad advice later on.  My leaders owe me the right to be heard via voting and letters and whatever, I should respect them enough to work for the good of the country.

Cicero's version of the Roman Republic sounds like the best system really.  You vote, there's balance of power, and so on.  No one really gets to lord it over everyone else.  It's organized more by "tribe" than geographic area -- something that might make sense if there was some reason not to tie the senators to the states.

There ya go -- call me a Confucian Republican.
