If 12 o'clock on a clock is Centrist, and everyone before 9am and after 3pm are far left/right then I'm about 11am to 1:30pm. I don't get the extremists, and I don't understand the mindless hate. I'm 62, when I was a kid, my Dad, a Republican, was best friends with a Democrat . Nowadays, we have to carefully feel people out before any kind of conversation. We may not agree on everything political, but you stood up to show we can still be agreeable with each other. For that I thank you. Most Americans don't know this, but not all of OUR Founding Fathers agreed on everything. In fact, far from it. They managed to introduce the Great Experiment. Modern Americans have managed to destroy it. Peace.

It's hard to define what centrist means. In the past half century, the definition of left is leaning towards Communism, the right is leaning towards the Fascism/Nazism, the American conservatives/constitutionalists are completely outside of that spectrum. Obviously the left and right are the two sects of authoritarianism, American conservatives/constitutionalists are libertarian/anarchists, it's written everywhere in the Constitution of the U.S.
