But I think it's quite clear in my work that my orientation isn't political or doesn't come out of modern politics.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I took a political stance early on, but I don't think my work is overtly political. I respond to events.
I wouldn't characterize my work, however, as directly political.
My work is not directly about the social or political.
I'm driven by issues, not driven to be political.
My politics are very centrist and sometimes, especially when it comes to foreign affairs, lean to the right.
Although I've been a longtime Democrat (primarily because, unless there is some very compelling reason to be otherwise, I am always for 'the little guy'), my political orientation is not rigid. For instance, I supported John McCain's run for the presidency in 2000.
Usually, whatever people's particular political leaning is, they either think I'm just like them or the opposite.
Never was my political stance determined by the men I was with. I had my own ideas.
It's OK to not be political unless your country is falling apart.
My work is drawn to the political but avoids an agenda. There is no inherent critique or support.
