Hello, my name is Sage, like the herb. It also means a wise old man,  and is this color:            It looks amazing, right?                         me--><--Also me           I live on                       ct,             city, CA,           15. My social security number is                         , and mother's maiden name is           .

 Anyway, the point of this blog is to get a good grade in AP government write down my political beliefs/ideals. Speaking of politics, according to this survey by the Pew Research center, my political typology is a New Era Enterpriser. The key points to this is that I:

  • Have moderate views on immigration and america’s engagement with the world.
  • Believe U.S involvement with global economy and immigration is a good thing.
  • Think that homosexuality is a good thing.
  • Conclude that the government is alright.
Personally, I believe the survey is correct, I agree with most of the following statements.
