A few months ago, Jobs officially stepped down as CEO of Apple after appointing Tim Cook to his former position. But Jobs' wasn't just an amazingly creative, advant garde tech guy. Jobs was clearly a liberal.
His record of political donations over the years supported various Democrats from Nancy Pelosi, to Edward Kennedy, to Rahm Emmanuel; even including a $4,000 donation for the 2010 March for Progress (D).
Steve Jobs didn't talk much about his political views, but his donations and those made by his wife, Laurene Powell Jobs (to the Obama campaign), speak louder than any words.
And although he wasn't known as a philanthropist (at least, publicly), the 'idea guy' did believe in work. He was a true hybrid of capitalism and liberalism.
In a world of advancing technology (largely because of himself), Steve Jobs was a REAL Jobs creator (think Apple stores, tech builders, assemblers, packagers, advertisers, etc).
