Political socialization,

Question

of these five, which would you consider the one that has the most influence..
family,
organizations,
peers,
events,
or media

Answer 1

Wouldn't it depend on the individual, how connected to family, or peers, or organizations he was?

Lyndon Johnson once listed his political allegencies this way...

First, I am a child of God
Second, I am a free man
Third, I am a family man.
Fourth, I am an American.
Fifth, I am a Democrat.

So we all have our own influences, and of course, it varies with circumstance and events. We will be happy to comment on your thoughts.

Answer 2

I agree with BobPursley that it depends upon the individual.

For me, it was a combination of my own experiences plus learning about the world from college teachers that shaped my political socialization.
