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 their efforts and policies line up best with my personal political views. Democrats typically favor government run programs and services for Education and Health Care and I agree that the free pursuit of health and knowledge is a right all humans should enjoy. I am in disagreement with many of the Republican points of view, and our system regrettably is a two party system. Even with the rise of fringe parties, I find myself aligning most with the Democratic party because I feel they care. I honestly believe a good portion of the work done by Democrats is in the best interest of all people.

I value diversity and see it as a trait that strengthens our nation. Learning from other cultures and embracing differences is what makes America great. But to me it's more than just throwing around politically correct terms; it's about practicing what you preach. Listening to our neighbors, regardless of their ethnic background or political affiliation, enables us all to be better Americans by seeing things threw their eyes. I feel I am part of my party's silent majority. If we intend to keep our party alive and inclusive of America's Heartland. And we must demand a return to civility by both Democrats and Republicans alike. We need to work together as a team, one of my favorite acronyms, Together Everyone Achieves More.

There are many reasons why I am a proud Republican. First off, I am a member of a great church. I enjoy going to church every Sunday with my family. I love being a great Christian. Second, I believe in the second amendment, the right to bear arms. My husband is a hunter and I sleep with a handgun in my nightstand. I want to protect my family and feel myself and all Americans need guns to protect themselves. These Democrats will NOT take my guns away. Third, I believe in life. I cannot believe there are people out there who want to kill their babies. It makes me so sick to my stomach. Babies have a right to live.

I think on the conservative side. I don't believe in government control and subsidies for those who aren't as good off. We are a company of opportunity and a country of patriotism. In the last 50 years or so, some in this country thought they could change our constitution to fit the needs of themeselves. This is not what this country is founded on. There are opportunities to be had but some groups of people think it's easier to just be handed things rather than earn them. Like those who don't even try to get a job, or go to school because something is keeping them from doing so. That is not the case at all. So, I believe in being an opportunist and not a vagrant and will always earn what I do in life, and not worry who is going to do it for me.

I am a Republican because I believe in freedom and personal responsibility. I believe that we have right to defend ourselves from enemies domestic and foreign. I believe that we as an individual have a right to the pursuit of liberty and property. I believe that being part of this party creates values to protect and the restore the American Dream. I believe that building our strength as a nation is what is need to lay the foundation for the future of our children. I have pride in myself and believe that under this leadership he will help us soar to new heights, making this nation great again.

I believe in values which align with the Republican positions. I am pro-life. I am for smaller government interference. I support lower taxes and a free capitalistic society. I am a supporter of a tougher stance on immigration and fully support building the border wall. I am for a strong decrease in government assistance programs and believe people should need to work hard and earn their way in life, not rely on handouts from the government. I love America and everything it stands for. We are by far the best country in the world as long as we stay true to our core values.

I am democrat because i believe in freedom. freedom to be who I am as well as for all persons to be treated fairly and have the opportunity to become the best person they can. I believe in science and the science behind global climate change. It is beyond my comprehension that any person belie they are superior just because of how they were born. or not believe in solid facts that the earth is changing and there are ways man can make difference . I also believe all persons have rights and we need to support those persons to be the best they can. Financial support of education, the arts and people who struggle are basic necessities. We do not need to endlessly fund wars and be the policemen to the world. If you are gay, straight or anywhere in between we all have the same rights

I am a republican because I believe that each individual person is responsible for themselves and for their place in society. The government should be there solely to aid people in that regard. Additionally, the government should step in solely when society cannot function at the level of the individual. Society should be generally focused on the individual, local, community, and state level; not the federal level. The best government for the people is one that is closest to the people, and as such the government should not interfere unless they are needed. Our country should work first and foremost to protect national freedom first, while working to spread peace, freedom, and human rights in the world.

I am a Republican because I used to be a Democrat. As silly as that is to type, it's the God's honest truth. The Democrat party has moved so far left, plugging rights for illegal immigrants, ignoring everything horrible Obama did (spying on press, weaponizing the IRS, spying on Trump etc.etc.) and still pretends they're morally right. I officially changed my registration during the 2012 election, and I haven't looked back. The Democrat party is the anti-American party, and I just don't see how they course-correct. Everyone who disagrees with them is racist/bigot/etc.etc. It's sickening and it's dishonest, and the Republican party has been the party that is far more interested in protecting our rights. The Republicans are the party of free speech, non-insane laws, and freedom in general. Anyone who could be a Democrat after the disastrous Obama years and current trajectory of the party just isn't watching.

I am a democrat because I believe in liberal ideas and almost always agree with the decisions made by the democratic leaders in our country. My beliefs strongly align with other democrats in our country and I feel a sense of solidarity with people who support the democratic party. I am rarely able to relate to or associate with republicans in our country as most of their views and beliefs seem different and extreme. I sometimes wonder how it is possible for someone who have such conservative values and thinking, especially when it comes to immigration and gay marriage licenses. Equality is very important to be and it can only be possible in a liberal country.
