DeliberateModerate
Issue Spectrum
The purpose of this 'Issue Spectrum' is to provide an aid to game sponsors for the "Delmod, the Deliberate Moderate" game. After reviewing your issues, an optional exercise would be to apply your answers to one issue at a time below. Then discuss where each player feels they would find themselves and why; or where candidates or political parties may land and why.
Put your Extreme Right benchmark here.

The purpose of this exercise is NOT to evaluate the value of any positions or options. The purpose is to recognize where the positions are relative to each other; or relative to the extremes or Delmod positions.
Do not be surprised to find that on some issues, even major US political parties may be relatively close to each other relative to the extremes. On other issues, they may be much farther apart. This makes for great conversation, as long as the discussion does not assume any position is right or wrong.
