Cb -- what does your text material say?

I would guess a -- but I don't have the statistics to prove it.

Here is a hint: AIDS has changed the landscape of some activities since the 1960's. Free love is left in the 1960s.

But honestly, "liberal" and "conservative" are silly words without much meaning, and I am surprised that your text is using them. Those words change meanings often. I read a new litmus test today in the NY times, that the Jr Senator from SCarolina is touting: Ronald Reagan didn't pass it, so was he liberal? Lord help us.

I agree "a", but your text has to be consulted, since logic in the definitions cannot be applied.
