Are you Republican, Independant or Democrat?

Independent. I vote for who IMO will best look out for the Country. Currently that would be the Republician Party. However I vote Dem if they were the better of the choices. I don't see that happening for awhile.
 
Mod Edit: Stay on topic from this point on. Chewie -Start a NEW thread - this is what I told you to do via PMs. This thread will not be closed or altered.
 
Chewie

Republicans = right

Democrats = left



I think Labour is left and Nationalist is right in your country isn't it, or i could be dead wrong.
 
Hmm.

I use to think that way too to vote for who I thought was best for the country. Then, I was educated by a Vietnam Vet who taught me the proper way which is to not vote for the person but the party, as they are the ones who truly run the country anyway, not the person indivdually.
Until Bush Jr., I was Independant too.
 
I am "undeclared" as there is actually an Independent Party in this country and when I lived in the Independent Socialist Republic of Cambridge, MA, that's how you had to register or you'd be automatically registered in the Independent Party. :shock:

I was educated by a WWII vet who brought his son up to be an independant. Individuals still make a difference in this country.

Ouch, Top. Well in MA I'd be "undeclared" too then.
 
while we are talking about it, what is the deal with you having "register" what party you support?

doesn't seems to make sense to me :?

anyway...here in NZ you are required by law to enrol to vote....and thats it. i was talking with some friend about registering your support in the US and they found it odd too.


if you register as a republican and you vote democrat, what happens?
if someone could clear it up for me i'd be gratefull
 
Your taken away and sent to a "re-education" camp.

Actually, nothing happens, you can still vote anyway you want. They just require you to register so they just i dunno just American BS i guess.
 
lol...i just want it noted that YOU said american BS...not me! lol


also the quote in your sig interested me...so i googled it:


http://urbanlegends.about.com/library/bl_quran_911.htm

Verse 9:11 of the Qur'an is about repentance and reads as follows in three different English translations:

But (even so), if they repent, establish regular prayers, and practise regular charity, they are your brethren in Faith: (thus) do We explain the Signs in detail, for those who understand.

But if they repent and establish worship and pay the poor-due, then are they your brethren in religion. We detail Our revelations for a people who have knowledge.

But if they repent and keep up prayer and pay the poor-rate, they are your brethren in faith; and We make the communications clear for a people who know.
The earliest instance I could find of the fake passage, evidently intended as a joke in its original context, is in a Usenet posting dated February 14, 2003.
 
The "deal" has primarily to do with voting in primary elections where each party elects its candidate to run in the general election. You can vote in any primary but by doing so you declare yourself a member of that party. I believe it is that way to prevent any one party from affecting which candidate another party runs against them in the general (everybody votes for whomever they like) election by sending their own party members in to vote in the other's primary election.
The purpose that say the Democratic Party holds a primary election is to select one Democratic candidate to run in the general election against whomever the other parties choose to run against them.
I don't know if that clears anything up but I tried :)
 
Well I was a Liberal-Moderate Republican, but since the party got taken over by the Extreme Right, I, like Jim Jeffords kicked ourselves out.
I guess, I'm independent I just wish the GOP would move back to the center. I don't think I could stomach another Texas oilman or ilk. Perhaps McCain or Hagel, otherwise I will vote Democrat.
 
Republican, I was born and lived in a communist country for a good while. And today's Democrats just seem that they like Joe Stalin a little too much.
 
Conservative Democrat or Liberal Republican. So that makes me an Independent? Sometimes I really hate politics.
 
Rabs said:
Republican, on foreigh policy and moral law. I lean to the left a little bit on economics.

I agree. I am generally considered a Republican, but as it was said, there are idiots on both sides, so I dont vote merely by party lines.
 
President McCain hopefully will be our next President, otherwise this country is screwed. Hobomba would be worse than Carter.
 
Worse than Carter? the man who singlehandedly got Hamas to sign a treaty with Israel? And could you call Obama buy his realy name? You wouldn't like it if I called you Half Nelson, now would you?

When I register to vote, I will register Democrat.
 
As a former police officer, there is not much you could call me that I haven't been called before.

If you plan on joining the military at anytime in your future, good luck if a Democrat is President. Democrats are notorious for not taking care of the military and downsizing instead, also the troops that are serving are almost always lacking for eqpt they should have under a Democrat.

Another kid who hasn't experienced life enough yet to know the facts. Remember this, when you get to be in your 30's, if it takes that long, let's see if you feel the same way politically as you appear now. Your gonna get burned at least once in your life by a Democrat in power, as you live your going to see that the Republican way is the Right way. Let's also remember that it was the Union, mostly Republican (except maybe Gen. Custer who was a Democrat but look what happened to him) that won the Civil War against the mostly Democrat Confederacy.
