Are you democrat, republican, independent, or other, and why?

As a U.S. citizen and human being, you have the ability to think independently. How many of you reading this have ever voted? And out of you how many have taken the time it takes to learn what effects socialized health care would have on our economy? What about gun rights?

Without doing independent research, your thoughts will be inherently influenced by whatever propaganda you happen to run into. If someone were to come up to you before you voted and asked you, "Why are you voting for {insert name here}?" Would you be able to answer them?

I'm not assuming that you the reader have never done this, but can you see where I'm coming from? I've met and talked to so many people who are so adamant about their political ideals that no amount of arguing will ever shake their thoughts. It is these type of people that need to be not "dealt with" just ignored.
