The Ideological Turing Test

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

I am a democrat because I believe that everyone should have a fair chance to succeed in America. America should not only be for the 1%. There should be opportunities for all Americans to be successful and be able to support their families. America is a melting pot. People of all races, sexual orientation, and age should be included and embraced. Let’s send a message to Washington that white rich bigots do not represent me. Democrats need to unite and stand up for what is right and what we believe in to get this country back on the right track.

I am a republican because I agree with the political parties stances on economic growth and societal issues. I believe in order to make our country great again we must create jobs for American workers here at home and stop outsourcing jobs to immigrants and other countries. We need to focus on bettering our country and making new jobs for our citizens in able to fix the economy here in the USA. As a republican I feel we need better affordable health care for all our citizens in our great nation. We need to tax the income of people that make millions a year and use this money towards affordable housing and education for our children and our citizens.

Growing up in a household as an African American my mom was always a Democrat When I actually learned the history about this I basically understood why she was for this political group. As I learned more as I grew up. I could identify myself as one. back in the day, we wast give may opportunities as equals. Everyone should be equal not just based off the color of their skin over those that have views based on being liberal or power hungry. Growing up in school taught me more. How hard civil rights were fought in this country and how much it was opposed. being part of this group means a lot to me because everyone deserves a chance to be somebody in this world without the limitation hold.

My parents have been faithful Republicans my entire life and raised me to follow those beliefs. I never really thought too differently until I was in college, started researching political beliefs/ideas and actually started following candidates. I found myself inching closer and closer to becoming a supporter of Hillary Clinton during the leadup to the 2016 Democratic elections. I absolutely loved (and still love) what she stood for, mostly LGBTQ rights, gun control, education and the right to choose. My political affiliation changed, and I became a Democrat. I arrive at my views based on experience, what happens in my life and what I see around me. I believe in a Country that shows togetherness and does not try to exclude races, genders or religions. The Republican party is only concerned about the welfare of the elite and do not work towards bringing equality to our nation and its people. I am proud to say I am a Democrat, even if it makes family dinners a little awkward at my folks house every know and then. I am confident in my beliefs and know that we can make a change for the better!

I am a Republican because I believe strongly in the values of our country. I believe the United States of America is founded on strong principles and democratic values that still hold up today. I am proud of what our country stands for and take great pride in honoring our veterans in the military and police forces across the country. These honorable men have given up so much so that we can enjoy the freedom that we have. The founding fathers of our country fought to give us our freedom and we need to protect and defend against anyone who tries to take it away.

I am a Democrat because I could never align myself with a party that continues to try and impede progress on society. In my opinion, as a woman of color, it is impossible to be a Republican, because their policies are against who I am as a person. While the Democratic party is not perfect, they are the party that sides more with my ideals, which is equalizing life for all citizens. Although there are many things about the country right now that have me disheartened, my politics are not built on hatred of others, but on hope that things can be better. And for me, that is what the Democratic party also stands for.

I am a REPUBLICAN because I believe in liberty and the rights of the individual. I believe that people should be able to own property, and do so without the overweight bearings of the federal government, which in its inefficiency and tendency to throw money at social problems, has led to harmful economic problems in the past. I believe that people have the right to a gun, as laid out in the second amendment of the Constitution. Republicans believe that people should be able to care for themselves freely, without forced external pressures from the government to dictate how to live.

I believe everyone should have the opportunity to be successful and prosperous in the United States of America. Every person regardless of race, gender, sexuality or immigration status should be given a chance to live a life without fear and hatred. I believe equality for every individual regardless of where they are born. This would include free or reduced (affordable) health care, education assistance for those who are unable to afford school. Higher tax on the most wealth individuals to even out the social classes so they are more fare. I believe everyone should live together in harmony and peace.

I am a DEMOCRAT because I was raised by 2 parents who strongly believed in the Democrat party. They made me aware of the differences of what the democrats and republicans stood for. Since I am a blue collar worker, I certainly can relate to the Democratic party more and more. Oh.. and did I mention that I am a single African American mother who really wants to see the possibility of my son getting a good education so that he has a chance at the real American dream. There certainly needs to be more equality in the US as far as pay equality, and I believe that the Democratic Party also finds that to be true.

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

I am a Republican because I think we need to put our country first. We need to get back down to what made us the greatest and focus on OUR citizens and not the citizens of every other country. Our national debt will never go down if we keep giving money out to everyone who needs it. And Our safety is going to continue to be compromised by letting anyone into the country with no stipulations. The economy is rising and jobs are plentiful. Now, we need to figure out the border issue and stop fighting amongst ourselves and start working together.
