We all tend to love reading those articles that tell us how we tend to act if we fulfill a certain requirement (like college major, sorority, or hometown).
Maybe it's because when we relate to that kind of article it makes us feel like we are doing what we are supposed to with our lives. Or maybe it's because it's fun to read about something like that. I'm a political science major, not a psychology major.
1. You follow all political races
You don't limit yourself to only following politics during presidential years. You understand that all levels of government are important and can equally screw over your city. From city commissioner to governor to president you make an effort to stay on top of things.
2. You cringe when certain people talk about politics
There are so many misinformed people that make you want to scream when they start talking about politics.
3. You watch at least one legal/political show
Scandal, House of Cards, The West Wing, Law & Order, Park and Recreations, etc. You may not have seen them all but you have watched at least one of them.
4. You run on coffee because of the insane amount of reading and writing you do
Your blood is basically 83% coffee at this point and probably will stay that way until... Well probably forever but you have accepted your fate.
5. You get incredibly annoyed when people don't know who runs your state
When people start complaining about something political and automatically blame the president when in reality it's probably like the mayor's problem or something.
6. You feel the need to fight people who use biased media as "credible" sources
Fox News and MSNBC are two of the most common (one on each of the spectrum). If you are having difficulty figuring out if a news source is biased or not check out this link Fairness & Accuracy in Reporting.
7. You have (or had) dreams to become president
When your elementary school teacher asked you what you wanted to be when you grew up you probably stated that you wanted to be president (of the world).
8. Your Facebook feed is equal parts puppies and politics
It doesn't have to be puppies just something that can help you take your mind off the world when things get too hectic.
9. You have an opinion on how your party could win any election
You are already planning on how your party can win the next presidential campaign. If only grown ups would listen to younger people.
10. You have worked on at least one campaign (no matter how small)
Whether it was knocking on doors or hanging flyers, you have made a contribution to the American political machine.
