Pew research has broken the American political spectrum down into 8 groups. Which one do you fit into?
Steadfast Conservative: Your basic conservative. Supports economic freedom but is more skeptical on immigration and is conservative on social issues.
Business Conservative: Maintains skepticism of government power but holds a more positive view of immigration and is moderate or slightly liberal on social issues.
Young Outsider: Like business conservatives but definitely on the left for social issues. They favor republicans slightly over democrats.
Hard Pressed Skeptic: Favors the social safety net but not other areas of government. They are also anti-immigrant.
Next Generation Left: Basically the opposite of hard presses skeptics. Tend to be more business oriented and are much like young outsiders except for being less skeptical of government and favoring democrats over republicans.
Faith and Family Left: The polar opposite of young outsiders. They are religious, hold a positive view of government, and are socially conservative.
Solid liberal: Your run of the mill democrat. Believes that racism is currently holding minorities down
bystanders: Doesn't vote and don't follow politics all that much. In it for the memes and moves on with their daily lives.
This gives a bit more insight into what each of the groups believes in: The Political Typology: Beyond Red vs. Blue | Pew Research Center
