Most Americans won't know what it means because to them political liberalism is the mainstream left
Classical liberalism is free market economic policy and being pro personal freedom. It's having a Liberal attitude to both. I.e. Soft libertarian capitalist.
I'm a socialist myself because I support personal freedom and see the free market as producing less freedom (for the majority) of individuals when left unconstrained. The only thing that can prevent that is a strong, democratic and interventionist state.
