Default New idea for the Forum

This might have been proposed before. But I am going to suggest it anyway. There is one twist to it that might not have been discussed before.

Is there anyway to include tags at the top of every post showing the political affiliation for that user, in the same way that it shows their nation of origin? Does the software allow for that?

My idea is that

1) It be completely voluntary

2) The affiliation would link to the corresponding Wikipedia page.

This would not only allow people a way to recognize the general political views of whoever they are responding to (which would especially be useful for new members) but might educate people on the various political ideologies as well.

I am not suggesting political PARTY affiliation (Democrat, Republican ect..) I am suggesting IDEOLOGICAL affiliation (paleo-conservative, neo-liberal, paleo-libertarian, centrist, anarchist, ect..)

If the software doesnt allow it I suppose it is moot. But I thought it's be a cool option on a political forum.
