Agree

Yes, as long as the crime was not committed while in office

Agree

Yes

Individualism emphasizes personal freedom and autonomy. Allowing a formerly convicted politician to run for office aligns with the belief in second chances and personal growth. However, the lack of specificity regarding the nature of the crime or circumstances might lead to a more cautious endorsement.

Slightly agree

Yes, as long as it was not a felony, violent, financial, or sexual crime

Disagree

No

The ideology of individualism would likely disagree with a blanket ban on formerly convicted politicians running for office, as it would be seen as an infringement on personal rights and the ability for individuals to change and contribute to society post-conviction.

Strongly disagree

No

This answer contradicts the individualist belief in personal freedom and responsibility. Barring someone from running for office because of a past crime could be seen as an unnecessary restriction on personal freedom. Individualists would argue that voters should be able to decide for themselves whether a candidate's past crime disqualifies them from office.

Strongly disagree

No, and disallow politicians that are under investigation for a crime

This stance would be seen as preemptively punitive and contrary to the principles of individualism, which would argue for the rights of individuals to be judged on their current merits and not unduly penalized for allegations or past actions.

Very strongly disagree

No, and disallow politicians that are under investigation for a crime
