I am a bit of a lefty on some issues.

I don't view myself as a political leftie. I view myself as a storyteller who is fair to both sides.

You've got to respond to that and of course thinking through the role of a left party in the modern world, in the modern economy and society and having a policy response to that.

If anything, I'm to the left of Obama.

Frankly, my politics are pretty left of left.

I am on the right wing of the middle of the road and with a strong radical bias.

I've been a conservative my whole life. There is nothing hard-right or far-right about anything. I just believe in ideas and that ideas matter in history, and that's my background, and that's the way I'd like to be portrayed.

My politics are very centrist and sometimes, especially when it comes to foreign affairs, lean to the right.

I'm as left-wing as you can get.
