There are lots of websites and forums that talk about the differences in
our pathetic 2 part system, and they are usually biased to the extreme.
It is better to watch the news everyday, and judge them by their
everyday actions.

Republicans believe that people are served best by letting them take
care of themselves, or helping others through charity. Democrats believe
that our government is best at taking care of people.

Republicans think that everyone can take care of themselves, while
Democrats wants to band everyone together, and everyone takes care of
each other.

Democrats: Are pro-choice, believe in more gun control, and more
intrusive government power of our businesses.

Republicans: Are pro-life, less gun control, less government power over
our businesses.

By leaving out any kind of value judgments, the difference in the
parties is basically ideological.

Democrats believe in human rights. Democrats also believe that you have
certain rights as citizens, taking it as far as the right to health care.

Republicans believe in pure privilege. Republicans believe that you can
have only that which you can afford, or earn. That's it in a nutshell
but you need to decide which you think is the better ideology. Do you
think you should be given things as a citizen, or should you have to
work for what you get?

I find myself in between. I listen to the dribble from both sides, and
both sides do have valid points. When I go to the ballots this November,
I will find myself wanting to vote for both parties, but there is
another thing that I have noticed. People usually do not vote for who
they want in office. They vote for who they do not want in office. We
elected Obama because we were tired of the same old BS from Republicans
allowing our financial institutions to plunder our life savings...

Under Obama, he has basically made public, and uuncovered many ugly
truths about our financial institutions and government practices...this
is something we already knew, but we really didn't want it thrown in our
faces...

So do we vote for the "business as usual" Republicans, or do we vote for
more ugly exposed truths from the Democrats...

I say just toss a coin...it makes no difference to me.
