AceNeerav | which category would Linda fall under? and why? |
Dervish | It just occurs to me that "liberal" and "conservative" don't even make sense when you try to apply it to someone decades ago. You can't take someone from her time and easily apply the label because the very names have changed in definition, as have their values. I know my granny gets confused at times because of the changes of what's considered liberal and conservative being different than when she was growing up. I like to think she'd be above the fray, as both sides get too ridiculous too often. I imagine her instead using charts and intuition when it came to candidates (I could see her as supporting a "Third Party" too), and would probably be inclined to measure things according to values rather than political expediency (ie, the exact opposite of the trend). She had many progressive ideas, that are still fairly radical for this day, but that doesn't mean she's necessarily one or the other. She had ideas that would be considered strange by many liberals AND conservatives today. |
Gooober | she loved ralph nader ------------------ while the soul slumbers God talks to us in numbers.. |
Randall | Liberal then, conservative now...maybe? ------------------ "The stars which shone over Babylon and the stable in Bethlehem still shine as brightly over the Empire State Building and your front yard today. They perform their cycles with the same mathematical precision, and they will continue to affect each thing on earth, including man, as long as the earth exists." Linda Goodman |
Randall | Yeah, she did love Nader. ------------------ "Don't worry about the world coming to an end today. It's already tomorrow in Australia." Charles Schultz |
juniperb | Independent ------------------ What we do for ourselves dies with us. What we do for others and the world is immortal"~ - George Eliot |
Randall | Ah, methinks Juni could be right. ------------------ "Don't worry about the world coming to an end today. It's already tomorrow in Australia." Charles Schultz |
Randall | Perot had a lot of fans a few years back. ------------------ "Cooking is like love. It should be entered into with abandon or not at all." Harriet Van Horne |
Randall | I remember Perot singing, "I'm crazy" by Patsy Cline. ------------------ "Cooking is like love. It should be entered into with abandon or not at all." Harriet Van Horne |
Randall | *bump* |
Randall | Maybe she wouldn't even vote. ------------------ "All deaths are suicides, do you realize that? Every single one. The only distinction is that, with some people, suicide is a subconscious choice, and with others it's a conscious choice. Otherwise, those who commit suicide and those who succumb to accident, illness or "old age," die for exactly the same reason: belief in the inevitability of death." Linda Goodman |

RegardesPlatero | Social conservative--she supported very traditional gender roles, anti-reproductive rights, anti-LGBT people (or, at the very least, not very understanding about them). She claimed to be supportive of the Equal Rights Amendment and viewed herself as a feminist, but she had very clear and pronounced ideas about gender roles and they leaned toward the conservative ideals. That's what I picked up from "Love Signs". I'd say that she was probably more liberal on metaphysical issues, but a social conservative, as I've already indicated. So, I suppose that would technically make her moderate or independent? I don't think that she fits into one neat little category. ------------------ *I use the whole sign system* Personal Planets: Sun, Mercury: Libra Venus: Scorpio Moon: Cancer Mars: Capricorn See my profile for my complete chart. |
Randall | She did a complete 180 from Love Signs to Star Signs (after learning from her GURUs). ------------------ "Never mentally imagine for another that which you would not want to experience for yourself, since the mental image you send out inevitably comes back to you." Rebecca Clark |
Randall | In Love Signs, she was very adamant against abortion. In Star Signs, she was trying to figure out when the Soul enters the body. ------------------ "Never mentally imagine for another that which you would not want to experience for yourself, since the mental image you send out inevitably comes back to you." Rebecca Clark |
Randall | *bump* ------------------ "Never mentally imagine for another that which you would not want to experience for yourself, since the mental image you send out inevitably comes back to you." Rebecca Clark |
kewf1988 | I analyzed her chart here: http://leftwingastrology.blogspot.com/2016/12/linda-goodman.html The chart strongly supports her being socially to the right (and thus anti abortion and gay rights, which the authoritarian Pallas may also indicate), but the economic indicators lean strongly to the left. Very interesting. |

Randall | She would probably be Libertarian. |
juniperb | quote: Originally posted by Randall: She would probably be Libertarian.
I think she would be too firey to be a Libertarian ------------------ Partial truth~the seeds of wisdom~can be found in many places...The seeds of wisdom are contained in all scriptures ever written… especially in art, music, and poetry and, above all, in Nature.

Randall | Rand Paul is fiery. He calls himself a Libertarian. |
