But I can't be converted by bashing left winger and convincing me not to vote Democrat. I can find plenty of my own reasons not to vote Democrat without help. But the reason I can't vote YOUR way is because I've failed to hear one right wing solution to the economy's woes that hasn't been tried before. I've failed to hear any exit strategy to our campaigns in the Middle East or how we make these campaigns worth the resources we pour into it. I have yet to hear any solutions to our failing education system from a right winger. Or a better healthcare plan. I will fight my instinct to argue with your points if you can do this without bashing Obama, Democrats, Muslims, Socialists or any sort of empty rhetoric, fear mongering or finger pointing that I promise will not sink in. Bashing the Obama administrations policies imply that your candidates have better ideas. Plans for better policies that help the many Americans trying to stay afloat in the recession. I'm dying to hear them. All I want, all I've ever wanted to read are any rational feasable solutions your candidates offer that will have America of 2016 (assuming the Mayans are wrong) much further along in in the right direction than in 2012.

Republicans, Independents, Obama-Haters, Freedom Fighter, Un-ObamaMoron. Whichever one you find the most flattering. I just picked one I meant no offense. I just wanted to hear someone give me something to vote for instead of something to vote against.

I would but I feel baited. Especially with negative connotations such as: "Obama-Haters, Freedom Fighter, Un-ObamaMoron".

Come on this is the best I can do as an olive branch. The names were just to satisfy him. Everyone can't be satisfied with labels. You may find this hard to believe but I am actually tired of Democrats taking the black vote. (what I am) for granted. For the longest I wanted Republicans to say something I identify with. (when it comes to foreign policy they occasionally do. As well as how welfare keeps some imprisoned in poverty and removes motivation for empowerment,) Many times I know Democrats and the left are lying to me. I'm not stupid at all. I consider myself non partisan but Republicans have given me absolutely nothing but negativity. I'm not asking what do they offer the black community. I don't ask questions like that. What do they offer the middle class? What are some solutions? It's not a loaded question at all. If someone can't come with a rational answer that leads me to assume that they have no rational answers.

You need to come to your own conclusions by doing your own research, not asking for input from anonymous people on an internet forum. Besides, this feels way too much like a bait post for me to bother, sorry. Good luck finding your political self.

I vote Republican because of what I have seen and lived through. I have always lived better and have never lost a job under one.

Do I agree with everything they say and do? Absolutely not. I just find that I agree more with them than the Ds.

Aww really!?! Come on now. Had I posted OBAMA FOR 2012!! Or ALL RIGHT WINGERS HAVE LOST THEIR MINDS!!! Every anonymous Red Voter would have been on this post like wild pirhanas knowing it was baited. Now suddenly when all I want is a peaceful exchange of productive political insight. Nobody has anything to say?
