: I've councelled so many people who recognized themselves in the E7 archetype but also in the E6 and vice versa, that I applaud dr. Oldhams Adventurer/Anti Social Style: it integrates E7 with E6cf and matches so perfectly with McCains story of life as 'hellraiser'. Since the adventurous style persons are focussed at their own pleasures and DON'T really care that much about others feelings and are good at manipulating people ('the fox' archetype; he now tries to project a moralistic E1 behavior style stressing values) I wonder how sincere McCain was when he said that 'he never gotten over the mental anguish'. The article also shows the impatient intolerance that pops up when the E7/6 doesn't get what he wants quickly (they get stressed.)


I suspect our regular forum contributer Andy to be an 'adventurous style'person; do you recognize something of McCain's style in yourself Andy? McCains is probably more close to E7 than to E6; he failed in his campaign because he overestimated the need of the American population to 'have something else' (E7's are easily bored with things.)

Bush are an idiot compared to him....I have never seen that dude, only read about him
in the newspaper, so not really mutch I can say. But he seems fresh, new,
and not fearful. Bush on the other hand seems like an empty stupid shell.

The only reason Bush beated MCcgain was because he had mutch more money
for election campains....I don't think it's because he overestimated
the americans need for something new......


If McCain had beeen a democrathic candidate he would sure beat that
hopeless (MR. Evil) Gore.

My impression of McCain is that he is a 7w8 or 8w7.....

Anyway.....I have only read a few lines in the paper...really hopeless to say
if I see myself in him...But I am mutch more like him, than I am like Gore
or Bush......


It's also funny....McCain are cleary the most self confident of all the candidates...

I think those oldham styles kind of lines together....

I think those who are adventurous also are very self confident...
I think those oldham styles mix very mutch....

I have studeied those typologies..

I have stopped saying things about my own type, since I think that really are of
no importance to others.


: Enneagrammists would say McCaine has an 6W7 or 7w6 character style.
