I BELIEVE THAT MY OPINIONS, BELIEFS, AND VALUES SHOULD BE BASED ON REASON, EVIDENCE, AND COMPASSION, NOT FEAR, ANGER, AND IGNORANCE.I BELIEVE EACH PERSON, REGARDLESS OF RACE, GENDER, ETHNICITY, OR SEXUAL ORIENTATION, DESERVES EQUAL RESPECT AND EQUAL RIGHTS TO PURSUE A MEANINGFUL LIFE. THESE ARE ONLY SOME OF WHY I AM A DEMOCRAT.

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

I am democrat because I believe all of the things they believe in. The important topics they support, I support too. Most of my family are Democrats too so I think that helps being one as well and just keeping in the family. I am a democrat because being a republican is everything I don't believe in and I really can't stand their opinion. I am a democrat because I am very open minded and I love to hear about other people opinions. I am a democrat because it matches with my goals and I feel like it is the moral decision.

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

I am a Republican because most of their positions and beliefs line up with mine. However I am not a total Republican because they seem like wimps and do not stand up with their beliefs and positions and just let the Democrats push them around. I always stand up with my beliefs no matter what. I do not change my mind just to please someone else. Some of the things that align with mine is I believe that this country was founded on the principles of serving God and country. That leaving God out of our schools and government causes a family breakdown in this country. Children are not disciplined at all and left in front of video or games to play. Parents seem to be working all the time and not raising their children leaving them up to the school districts to raise. This only produces a confused and distant personality that cannot cope with the worlds standards. We all need a foundation to stand on and includes the love of God in our lives.

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

I am a democrat because I believe that the fundamental role of a government should be to aide its citizens. I believe that the democratic party stands for social progress, the celebration of diversity, and support for each and every person, no matter their political or religious ideologies. These core tenets of the Democratic party are selfless in nature and I believe that they best reflect the foundational principles of the United States. To me, being a democrat means supporting others and valuing the lives of other Americans more than the economic development of major corporations. I am a democrat because I love my country and I think that the United States should hold itself to the highest possible moral standard and protect the rights of its citizens and all people around the world.

I am a Republican because I believe in my second Amendment right to bare arms to protect my family. I am a Christian and believe that a heartbeat is a sign of life, therefore I do not support abortion or Planned Parenthood since they perform abortions. I believe that less government is more. I believe that Capitalism is the American way. People should be able to pull themselves up from their bootstraps without government assistance. I support our military and our police officers. I believe in strong, Christian family values. I believe in strong protections for our county from illegal immigration.

I am a Republican because I believe in our constitution. I am a nationalist, not a globalist so I believe borders to our country are necessary. I do not believe in socialism or communism, but a free market that gives all a chance to profit through trade. I believe in small government and smaller taxes. A government that supplies all your needs can control you completely, therefore less dependence on government is a good thing. Although I am Republican, I do believe in protecting the environment. And gun ownership is a constitutional right, yet stricter criteria to purchase is necessary.

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

I am a republican because I align with conservative values and I want a smaller and limited government. I think that we the people are being over taxed and and over regulated. While I do tend to support President Trump and his policies I still think that the government is too over reaching. Republicans have no problems calling themselves and each other out when mistakes are made, unlike democrats who will cover for each other until the end of time no matter how bad something is. Being pro life is important to me as well. I believe you should be able to do whatever you want to as long a you don’t hurt anyone else, and being pro choice or pro abortion as they are now doesn’t meet my one rule for life.

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

I am a Democrat because I believe that our country needs to focus more on the average person rather than on the wealthy. I believe in equality for all races and genders, and I believe in allowing people to live the lifestyle that makes them happiest (gay marriage, etc). I believe the country spends too much money on military, and benefits the wealthy more than it should. Money could be better spent providing services to those in need, helping immigrants, helping students with student loan debt, making healthcare affordable, and in general making sure that the abundance of wealth in this country is distributed in a way that everyone can benefit from.

I am a Democrat because it is very important to me that I identify with the common people. Being Democrat means that I believe that all people were created equal. To means it means the freedom to support affirmative action and to follow in the tradition of all my former members of my family. I was raised this way and it is very important to me that I be identified as a Democrat. I believe that women, immigrants and blue-collared workers deserve the same great treatment. I believe that no matter how much money that one has, they should have a say in things.

""I am a DEMOCRAT because I think we we allow more diversity in the United States. Learning from other cultures can be beneficial and give us more knowledge. I believe it is the womans right to choose what is allowed on her own body. I think the Obama Care Act should not be repealed but reformed. There are alot of people that need medical care in the United States and it is up to us to take care of them with a universal health plan. I think there should be more regulations on purchasing a gun so those do not go into the hands of those who do not need one.
