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 they most likely represent the the middle class and lower in this country. Also due to the fact that I am an African American they do represent me. They also are not for the super rich they take into consideration the needs of the poor. They are also for a medical plan that will provide help for all Americans not just the rich and super rich. They are the grassroots party that lifts up the hard workers of this nation. As I look back at the Democratic Party over the years they have helped so many.

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

I am a republican because I focus more on economic issues than societal ones. I think it's important to honor the ways of our forefathers and not worry so much about change. If someone works hard they will get ahead, they don't need government handouts. Capitalism means a free market and too much government interference leads to socialism or even communism. I believe that Americans should have freedoms such as possessing a firearm for protection. We should be united as a nation under God and follow his teachings. We should put our country first, before worrying about other nations in the world.

I am a democrat because I believe in the right to live however you want to live, it is not in my wheelhouse to judge anyone, and I think our policies in government should reflect that. I also identify as a democrat because I believe that there are serious inequalities in this country that need to be taken care of, and only one side of the isle, the democrats, seem to actually care about the rights of minorities, the working class, and actually fixing the systematic problems we have currently which has made this inequality so glaringly obvious to everyone in the first place.

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

I am a Democrat because I believe in change. I believe that Republicans can't produce change, even if it slapped them in the face. I believe our President, is not doing at all what he should be doing and should be removed from office. Our country needs people that are purpose driven and want to see our country succeed, not someone that is going to sit on the sidelines and do nothing. I believe right now, our country is at its worst and will continue to go downhill until someone more effective is placed where they need to be. Too many things are being overlooked, when in reality we should be more focused on certain areas, such as illegal immigrants being reunited with their families over gun control.

I believe in women's right and civil rights. In the core of my person, I'm a progressive and support progressive values and stances. As A society we need to give disadvantages peoples a hand up so that as a society we will all function better. If there are people in our community doing badly it impacts everyone and the best way to combat this is to have resources in place that help disadvantaged people help themselves. I feel like it takes everyone working together to build a better society and that in order to do that we have to empower marginalized individuals so that they feel empowered and strong enough to overcome the obstacles in their lives.

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

I identify as republican because I support America. My family has always identified as a republican. We are Christian and have high moral standards. I believe in fighting for my country and traditional American values. Unlike democrats, who want to take our rights away, like our freedom to have guns, as a republican I believe in our constitution to have guns. Democrats are running America to the ground with their tolerance of everything like same-sex marriage. Women and men are only to be together, not a woman and woman or man and man. This is morally wrong and has no place in our American society.

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

I was not always a republican. I was raised a democrat. Our family was very poor and as I grew up I thought the government should help people that had nothing much. However, once an adult I realized the opportunities are there for anyone to go after, all I had to do was try. A few more years passed and I realized my views aligned more with the Republican party, thus I became a Republican. I don't feel the government should get so involved in each families business. There can be help, but limited help and for a limited time. The public needs to learn to stand on their own 2 feet and quit looking for handouts from the government. Now to make it even worse, Democrats want to give health benefits to illegal immigrants! This has got to change!

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

I am a Democrat because I believe in full equality towards everyone in every way, I believe that EVERYONE needs economic security, not just the top percentage of the rich. I believe business should be rewarded for bringing jobs into the community. I believe in competitive sales and markets for local and small businesses alike, not just the huge trillionaire companies out there. I also believe there should be a fair tax system overall, not one should have more than the other and those should count towards businesses also. Everything should be equal in every aspect. I believe that my opinion and beliefs should be based upon reason and facts rather than anger and hostility. These are my reasons for being a strong democrat.

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

I am a Republican because I feel more inline with Republican political beliefs than Democratic beliefs. I am a conservative that is very religious, and these beliefs that I have are more right winged than left. I am a supporter of our current President and always have been since he confirmed he was running for President. I think that he is bringing real change to the US, and I strongly like his views on immigration. I also like how our current President is changing it up in the white house and really making our presence known around the world as a force and leader in this world.
