According to the quiz, which political ideology best reflects your answers? Do you agree or disagree with the findings? Are there any questions from the quiz that you had not previously thought about the answers before?

Thinking about the concept of political socialization discussed in the video, briefly tell the class about your own experiences. While doing so, what are/were a few key influences in your own life? How do those influences of  parents, religious leaders, teachers etc affect your views (or not) on governments and politics? Please discuss your viewpoint on a specific issue. Please relate your viewpoint to a specific political party. Which political party dominates Texas politics? How does that influence state policies and what does that mean for the people in Texas?
