Answer to Question 1

An ideal response will:
1. Define political socialization and relate factors that contribute to a voter's political preferences.
2. Explain selective exposure. This dynamic, coupled with political socialization, limits the amount of new information that voters are exposed to, which decreases the chance of ideological shifts.

Answer to Question 2

An ideal response will:
1. Define libertarianism as limiting government to such vital activities as national defense while fostering individual liberty.
2. Explain that unlike conservatives and liberals, libertarians oppose all government regulation, even of personal morality. Libertarians believe that private enterprise and the market are more efficient than the state could ever be, unlike socialism. Libertarians see property rights and repealing economic regulations as key to freedom, unlike communism.
