1. I don't believe in Beatles, I just believe in me. 2. I think that government has a role to play but that it should be limited to protecting it's citizens. This protection is broad though and can mean providing military protections, education and healthcare (including mental health care) etc. I have never declared myself a republican or democrat and never will. The person I deem the most capable will get my vote. That said, I now wish I had voted for Romney but I couldn't stomach his running mate. I sincerely think the country/economy would be in a better place had he won. Leadership qualities and experience are key when you need to work through others in order to accomplish things on this scope. But yeah, most people see politics in the same way they do sports or religion. They feel the need to "pick a team" and root for it no matter what. That's just odd to me.
Yes sir, same here. Not an independent either... or a communist... or a nazi... In addition, I think the Parliamentary system in theory has much stronger potential for democratic representation than that in the U.S. but it's clear that in reality that representation is easily skewed, and corrupted via $$$. So that doesn't work either. I just hope I can continue to strive for values as true and honest to myself as I can. edit: wait. Ryan was your problem?! I couldn't stand Romney! Every time I saw his smile on tv I felt like punching him right in the hair.I have never declared myself a republican or democrat and never will. The person I deem the most capable will get my vote.
