The Ideological Turing Test

The following statement was written based on the prompt: “I’m a Democrat because…”

I am a Democrat because I had no choice in the matter. I was a loyal Republican for many, many years and then Donald Trump came along. He some how became president and the person everyone thought of when you said democrat. Who in their right mind would want to be a Republican if HE is associated in any way, shape or form with your group let alone the president of the United States of America. He is everything that is wrong with Republicans and males in general. So, now I am Democrat and I will do everything in my power to support the Democratic Party.

I am a Democrat because I believe in expression, equality and the benefit of my fellow American. It is important to me that I identify as a Democrat because it reminds me of the things I hold close. I feel confident and pride when I tell someone I am a Democrat and interacting with other Democrats, I feel, provides me with a strong sense of community and acceptance. I find that the democratic party is committed to preserving the ideals that I hold close and I feel obliged to show my support to the Democratic party as a way to re-affirm my own morals and beliefs.

I am proud to be a Republican because the party reflects my values and love of my country. As a small business owner I struggle with the regulations of doing business and the health of the economy needs to be good for my work to survive and thrive. The Republican Party works to remove unnecessary regulations and pushes their plan to keep the business environment strong. Also I am an avid white tail deer hunter and the Republicans along with the support of the NRA will keep my rights to continue enjoying hunting a reality. My father, who was a straight Republican ticket voter always felt like he still make a choice for a candidate from another party, it just never happened. I feel free to vote for the best man for the job but nearly always the best man is a Republican.

I am a democrat because I believe that climate change is an issue that is important, and is an issue that needs to be addressed immediately. The science is out on this issue, and there is no denying that humans are contributing to this change. I am actually part of the progressives who want the Green New Deal to be passed. I am also voting for Andrew Yang because he has plans to pass medicare for all, a universal basic income, and his views on human centered capitalism. I feel he is the most logical and factually based person for the job, and I'm actually pretty excited about a potential Asian as president, as I love the Asian Culture as a whole.

I am a Democrat because I believe in equality for all. I believe that all people were created equal and deserve an equal chance at life here in the US. I think we should do more to help immigrants seeking a better life, and that there should be more women and people of color represented in our leadership. I want there to be affordable healthcare available to every citizen, no matter their income level or background. I want the US to be a place of safety and prosperity for people of all genders, sexual orientations and races. I believe the US CAN be a great country, when not bogged down by bigotry and hate.

I am a republican because I am a true American. I love my country and I am very patriotic. I support our military 100% and believe in the freedom to own your own weapons to protect you family and home. I stand for family values and will always stand firm in my faith to guide me morally. I believe in backing your president and respecting their position. I believe criminals should be punished for their havoc in society. I believe the working man should earn reward. I firmly believe that every life is valuable no matter how small or how young, so I would be completely against the thought of abortion.

I believe in the well-being of all human beings. People should be treated equally, paid equally and have the same opportunities to advance their goals. The issues important to me are Healthcare, Environmental responsibility, Education reform and gun control. Although immigration is important to the economy, I support a limited border policy in order for the United States to be able to manage populations for efficiently. I believe solutions can be achieved by embracing the best from all the races of people. Additionally, I support a woman's right to make decisions regarding her pregnancy, including a safe and legal abortion, regardless of ability to pay.

The following statement was written based on the prompt: “I’m a Republican because…”

I am a Republican because my beliefs line up more closely to Republican beliefs. I do not think that the direction that Democrats are currently moving towards will keep our country successful. Therefore, current Republican beliefs on the economy, immigration, infrastructure, the environment, abortion, trade, etc. are more in line with my own personal beliefs. It also appears that the party that is more realistic in understanding the detrimental effects of the current ideology on 'free' education and medical insurance would be Republican, in my opinion. So, even though I may not appreciate the party leaders not always being reasonable and fair in their dealings with each other, I to date remain Republican as this party is currently the most 'intelligent' in its policies, in my personal opinion.

""I am a DEMOCRAT because I believe in equality for all. No one sector should be over run by another. The rich stay rich when they pass laws to protect corporate business instead of taxing them when they have made extra. Smaller business are the ones who are hurting when they pass new laws and pass taxes exemptions for only certain company's. I believe if a certain income is made by a business, then all should be required to pay a the same amount in deduction from earnings. Corporations like Walmart have the money yet get more exemptions on taxes and deductions than your local flea market family store..Its just not fair over all.
