I'm too new at this to try to guess, but I'm curious about what type Gov. Chris Christie might be, especially after watching his interview with Oprah. Here are a couple of the segments:

I keep getting an ENTJ 8w9 vibe from him.

I was curious because his straight-forward approach would seem T to me, but he talks a lot about being steered by his feelings in this interview, so I was wondering if he might be F. I had never heard of him before we moved to NJ late in 2010. My initial impression is that I kind of like the guy.

Being steered by feelings... I think it may be his own feelings and values on an issue. He is willing to go all the way out to realize a vision, and doesn't seek harmony with it... rather going by what he feels is morally right to do. So this is more indicative of Fi rather than Fe. But he has a clear "take-charge" attitude, which is very Te. "Lets get this done." type of outlook. Plus, there's the Ni-vision, but tied into synthesizing a plan to get things accomplished in the present moment (tertiary Se). So I think he's ENTJ.

And, if you tie in the Enneagram system... type 8s are quite emotionally turbulent and use more aggressive/direct tactics to get the job done. Christie fits the type 8 description... he's a boss, and not afraid to stand up and tell people to get things done right. ;)

Thanks, [MENTION=8888]CuriousFeeling[/MENTION]. Like I said, I'm very new to this, so your explanation and a real world example help me learn and see how it all fits together.
