Detailed, intellectual responses, please. No name-calling; I want reasons why you're FOR the side you're on, not why you're AGAINST the other side. Ready, set... go.

Several hours after publication and I've already seen some answers to my question that don't meet the criteria that I established. If you don't have a REASON for your political affiliation, or just don't want to share it, DON'T ANSWER. Seeing "conservative" or "liberal" doesn't tell me anything; I want DETAILS.

I am a Republican, because I believe I should be able to keep the money I make. I should not be expected to support anyone who doesn't work. Plus I am from a state whose economics are based on oil, coal, gas, etc. which is supported by the republican party.

I am a Liberal (on the Left) according to the World's Smallest Political Quiz, which is correct, I am a Liberal, but there are some things I am against, such as economic freedom. Letting some people be richer than others is a crime, and needs to be stopped. I am against the Right, mainly due to fascism and big corporations. Technically I align myself as a Democratic Socialist, as opposed to a Social Democrat.

I consider myself a Republican and the reason is that more of my ideas are in line with conservative Republicans. I would still vote for a Democrat if his beliefs were the same as mine.
OK to SAGHAILI on your answer--you are f****d in the head! You are against some people being more rich than others?! So you are against being rewarded for hard work and success! Sounds Like you are a loser, and a welfare case. Move to North Korea you communist!

Democrat. I think they care slightly more for the middle class. They don't seem to be as concerned with big oil money.
