Extra questions for politics. Policy questions might be better than identification labels.
The European welfare system is superior to the American system:
Strong Disagreement - Light Disagreement - Neutral - Light Approval - Strong Approval
Snowden did the right thing in making secret documents public:

Capital gains should be taxed the same way as other income:

It was right for the West to intervene militarily in Lybia:
Strong Disagreement - Light Disagreement - Neutral - Light Approval - Strong Approval

Libya.
Also, "American system" - I think you mean US. I'd say that explicitly.
I have finally gotten the survey to a point where I'm pretty happy with it. I have no big changes I want to make this year. But as is the tradition, please take a week to discuss what minor changes you want to the survey (within the limits of what Google Docs and finite time can do) and I will try to comply. In particular, we can continue the tradition that any question you request can be added to the Extra Credit section unless it's illegal or horribly offensive.
You can find last year's survey results here and you can find the very preliminary version of this year's survey (so far exactly the same as last year's) here.
EDIT: I don't particularly like the IQ test or the Big Five test used last year. If you have any better replacements for either, tell me and I'll put them in.
EDIT2: CFAR, you added seven questions last year. Let me know what you want to do with those this year. Keep them? Remove them? Replace them?
