I don't think Hillary is at all more socially liberal than Bill. If anything, she's more socially conservative by a long shot. Though I agree she would be more economically liberal.

Bill Clinton- E: -0.45 S: -1.9
Gary Johnson- E: 5.95 S: -5.55
Ralph Nader- E: -7.10 S: -6.55

Political compass consistently puts centre-left politicians/parties (Labour, Obama etc) on the centre/centre-right of the spectrum. What do you think are the questions that we would answer differently vs Political Compass?

The whole "neoliberalism has corrupted all parties in the Western world to the point where they're all far-far-right and there's no difference!!!111!" thing is a pretty clear giveaway.

According to the Political Compass, Hu Jintao also is to the right of Ron Paul, Francois Hollande is a centrist, Sweden is a neoliberal libertarian's paradise, Rocky Anderson is a moderate libertarian and the conservative party was once to the left of John Kerry.
