Doesn't leave much to choose from, regardless of what name is on the ballot...

I find it hard to believe that you were ever anything other than a Far Left Liberal Democrat. The transformation must have been something to behold!

For me, I grew up in a very political family. My mom was an active Republican, and I remember C-Span, Rush Limbaugh, or CNN being on when I got home from school every day. The first election I remember with any detail is 1992, but I first got interested during the 1994 elections. I was thirteen, and had other teenage stuff to do, but I was also really into politics too. And the interest in politics has been with me ever since.

How about you?

Politics is the struture and revolutionary ideas that birthed this nation. It was newpapers, Thomas Paine (Common Sense) the dinner talks and social interaction that made this country decide it had enough of taxes, british rule and the few who risked their lives to defend liberty. If we would only look at what the American People have to put up with now. I dont have care if your Dem or Repub you must see it is broken. It can no longer be fixed from within and frankly our country is being destory from within by our government.
The more government you have the more it is corrupt and I dont think those who go to fix washington really know what they are fixing. Again it is only the people who must abolish this government and start new one based on the constitution. Of limited government, less taxes for everyone, real money and balance budgets we must think small and dream big and put the liberty in the hands of the people and not the power into the few in washington.

Every year you vote with hope and change but really your voting for chains and slavery to the next big government idealogy from the right or left which ever it is INDIVIDUAL LIBERTY IS LOST!! Big government finds new ways to control you and uses forms of control to keep you silent and weak. They bailout a bank, a corporation and then offer you free money in stimuls. It's not the governments money it was your money to begin with that you pay in taxes and they already spent it which is why the nation is in debt. Stop believing in government and demand they believe in you, the people who work for a living and have them remove in the income tax, the regulations on your economic and personal lives. Stop the government lies and break the chains and find your freedom.
