Why specifically are you a Republican, Democrat, or Independant?

Question

I just wanna know

Answer 1

I am a Democrat.

Democrats are the party of the people as history attests. Democrats have the best plan for america to progress. Investing in human capital is germane to promise and growth and Democrats share that same philosphy. Democrats exhort job training and retraining programs, both public and private, while Republicans cut funding. These are indispensable in an era when trade and technology bring rapid change to the job market, and these programs need constant retooling and reexamination.

Ted Kennedy said it best, "Cutting education during the Information Age is like cutting defense during the height of the Cold War."

Republicans unclear philosophy claims the rich will work harder if given more breaks and the poor will work harder if given fewer breaks.

Some of the democrats’ achievements:
GI Bills
Earned Income Tax Credit
Americorps
Peace Corps
Head Start
FEMA
Human Genome Project
Clean Water Act
Medicaid Medicare
Brady Law
Ban on CFCs
Direct Student Loans
WIC
Social Security
Meals on Wheels

Answer 2

Democrat's because they are more liberal. They don't demand on a plate the head of anyone who disagrees with them.
I think the Republicans have become radical religious extremists.
They are scary people. I am not for big businesses and the rich.
I believe in raising the minumn wage. Help programs for unwed mothers so they don't see abortion as their only option.
More abortions have been done under this administration than any previous administration. I am not for abortion but I am for the poor and disadvantaged not the rich. I believe in universal health care. Not for sending all our money over seas to secure oil.
But putting some into alternative fuels. All the people in Iraq are given free health care courtesy of the American government, but the poor in this country can't get it. Old people who can't afford their prescriptions, what is wrong with helping them.
They all get free medication in Iraq.
Why are you a Republican? They take from the poor to give to the rich. They are all for big business and hide behind religion saying yes we steal and we kill and we are corrupt but we don't like gays or abortion. Big deal. Who cares what some wierd guy does in his bedroom.

Answer 3

I'm a Libertarian because I agree with everything I've read about them thus far, and I've read, discussed and learned a lot about Libertarianism. And I agree with what they say, because freedom is a right, and freedom stops as soon as you're forced to do anything that stops you from pursuing your goals. With, of course, the limitation of not infringing upon other peoples' rights to freedom.

Answer 4

I am independant. Why you ask so I can listen to both sides and decide who is lying the least.
I mostly vote for republicans because I feel they have guts to get things done. They dont talk crap and then never back it up.

Answer 5

I do not believe democrats can do the job that needs to be done on terrorism, in general. I am ready to back a democrat up IF he proves to me that he can do a better job tackling terrorism than the republican candidate.

Answer 6

I am a democrat, my father was a democrat and my grandfather before him was a democrat. Nuff said!!!

Answer 7

I am a proud Republican because I believe in small government rather than large, I am for a strong military and I do not believe in tax and spend.

Answer 8

What about the Libertarians- who hold the most similar values, ideas that this country was founded on. They believe in the most freedom and are very close to pure Capitalist beliefs.

Answer 9

I am a Republican because I believe people should keep the money they earn, and win the wars they start.

Answer 10

Independant. Loyalty is a sign of an oppressed mind!!!!!!!!
