The Ideological Turing Test

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

I am a Republican because I am a conservative and believe that the Republican party is the party that represents my believes. I am pro life and feel that abortion is wrong in every sense. I believe that life starts at conception and should be protected. I am Christian and feel that my religious rights should always be protected. I also believe that our borders should be well protected with a wall. That immigration has to be done the right way and follow all procedures, if a person is here illegally they need to go back and complete the immigration process properly.

I am a democrat because I believe that all people deserve rights, even if granting those rights means that we, as a society, have to change certain core beliefs and traditions. For example, I believe that all people, no matter where they are from, have a right to education beyond high school, and universal health care. Though these things might mean higher taxes and a trend towards democratic socialism, to me it is a small price to pay to know that everyone stands on a level playing field, and no one will die simply because they could not afford a doctor's visit. Obviously there is more to being a democrat than just education and healthcare, but to me, even just these two reasons are enough.

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

I am a strong Democrat. I am a Democrat because I am passionate about equality for everyone, regardless of race, gender, sexual preferences, etc. I also strongly align with many democratic socialism ideas, such as socialized healthcare and college. I believe the Republican party is currently too far right/center, and does not have the best interests of Americans, and instead support only the rich. I also believe that we should avoid war as much as possible (especially racist wars) and instead focus on solving problems with diplomacy. Diplomacy with other countries is the most important task of the President in my opinion.

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.

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

I believe in small government. I dont look to government to meet my, and everyone else's every need and then tax me heavily for it. I also think that abortion should be limited to when a mother's life is endangered. I think the current gun laws are enough and there should not be any more restrictions.I am against gay marriage and believe there should be laws against children being put on hormones and having body parts cut off because they are confused about their gender. I believe in being fiscally prudent and cutting taxes as well as a few government handouts.

I am a republican because I love America. I also am a republican the republican morals go hand in hand with my religious beliefs. I am pro guns and prolife. I am also in support of the wall being built to protect our borers. I feel that our President is doing a great job and I trust him very much. I truly think that he is trying very hard to make America Great again. I believe that republicans try to do what is best for this country in a fair and just way. I wish that the democrats would back off and let Trump run the country! Merica!

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

In the south, being a conservative Republican is a way of life. I learned most of my politics watching the news with my family, and they instilled a strong sense of right and wrong into my personality and I grew up. I am a Republican for a variety of reasons. First, I think that a person's success in the world is up to their own abilities and drive. I feel that the government should not intervene too much into the workings of society, especially at the federal level. Government intervention is necessary in some cases, but people have been working to achieve success for decades, and that entrepreneurial spirit is a core value of American society. If people are able to achieve success, they should reap the benefits of that hard work without having to unnecessarily give money to help others who are not as successful. Additionally, the government's first priority should be the prosperity of the American people, economic success of the country, and freedom for those who live in America. After our own needs are taken care of, the US can work to spread goodwill and peace throughout the world. However, it is not in America's best interest to ignore problems at home while using resources overseas. I believe that these core values will help ensure the success of our great country. I love America, and I am proud to call myself a Republican.

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

I am a Republican because I am a patriot that was taught to fight for my country and live a life according to certain values. My father and grandfather both served this great country as members of the armed forces. They taught me that freedom is not something to be taken lightly and comes at a great cost. I choose to live my life in order to honor the sacrifices that they made. I believe in standing up for the traditional values of my hometown and will not compromise when it comes to the teachings of my faith. I am a Republican because it allows me to live a life based on faith, values, and love for my country.

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

I am a Democrat because the most successful Presidents in the United States History have been Democrat. The Democratic way is the best way to serve our people for things that our important and that the people of this country need. If the things the Democrats wanted would happen the world would be a better place and everyone would be happier. The country would truly be a better country if we always elected a Democratic President. We wouldn't have the constant changes that sets the country back years each time we have a Republican President. I am truly proud to be a Democrat.

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

I am a democrat because I wholeheartedly believe all people should be treated equal. Everyone deserves healthcare, shelter, and other basic necessities regardless of person wealth or status. Income should be more equal, and it shouldn't be illegal to enter the country without following the extremely difficult and costly current path to citizenship. Gun control is something that must happen to curb the current outbreak of gun violence in America. More should be done for those in poverty and those who are unable to work for any reason, whether it be age, disability, or something else. Everyone deserves dignity and sympathy.
