I have to place President Obama and Governor Romney on the political spectrum. It pretty much looks like a graph and one side is social and one side is economical.

I'm having issues placing them.
Where would Obama be and where would Romney be?

Thanks

I was looking through them and I don't quite understand, Obama is more on the liberal side then? And Romney would be more on the Conservative side?

Yes, that's right. How far left and how far right is apparently what you're being asked to illustrate.

That's the issue I'm having.

Sorry if I'm confusing, I do understand one is on one side and one is on the other.
But where?

Liberal is called "left."

Conservative is called "right."

How far left of center is Pres Obama?
How far right of center is Gov Romney?
That's what you'll need to decide.

Oh, alright.

Thank you!

You're welcome.
