Are you an Occupier or Tea Partier?

[Hat-tip to the YAL at Ohio State paper, The Rubicon]

The Occupy Wall Street movement has quickly spread across the country. While their goals are still vague, some general trends have begun to appear. So just where do you fall? Are you more aligned with #OWS, the Tea Party, or somewhere in between? Take the test and find out!

(No, we didn't come up with this idea ourselves, it’s based on “The World’s Smallest Political Quiz.” Check it out.)

Glenn Beck: "Most Americans are Libertarians"

No, I'm not kidding. In fact, I'm far from kidding.

Guess who busted out the Nolan chart on their show just the other night, alongside Judge Andrew Napolitano? Yep, the one, the only, the controversial and frequent "ranter," Glenn Beck.

But the very interesting thing, however, was how much credence he gave the concept of libertarianism. Furthermore, what surprised me was that the son-of-a-gun actually explained it well.

Check out the video (posted below as well) from Beck's recent program where he explains the Nolan chart; but more importantly, make sure you send it to a "conservative," or any Glenn Beck fan. Convert these fans; don't fight them just yet.
