Who are you?
- Are you willing to respect or accept behavior or opinions different from your own; open to new ideas?
- Are you favorable to or respectful of individual rights and freedoms?
- Do you favor individual liberty, free trade, and moderate political and social reform?
Answer yes to two or more? Then you are defined as a liberal!
Answered yes but don't think you're a liberal? If you are open to new ideas, you might think about where you learned what being a liberal is; who was the teacher and did they have a motive for teaching what you learned?
Everything you know, you learned.
