Republicans think that ensuring that people are able to live is making them rich. Don't believe me? Look up the term "welfare queen" that they invented.

yeah I registered independent but what I didn't realize is that means I am unable to vote in state or local elections.

im voting libertarian

The Republican Party and Democratic Party have switched. Ronald Reagan said that he did not leave the Democratic Party. It was the Democratic Party that left him.

"...we are saying that something is wrong with capitalism. There must be a better distribution of wealth and maybe America must move toward a Democratic Socialism."
- MLK, 1968

so was abraham lincoln

John Wilkis Booth was a democrat

Yeah, but back then the parties were really different. The republicans back then were more like our democrats now.

Our democrats are awful, wtf are you talking about.

Go third party that makes sense.

Wtf why I am i getting thumbed down? By back then I mean in the 1800's, where there were whigs 'n shit.

you made it sound as if you meant in the 50's and 60's

your going back alot farther, the democratic republican party from the 1700's/1800's was more like the new parties.

The Anti-Federalists were the party the democrats evolved out of. Ironically their core doctrine, that the federal government should be weak, is one embraced by neocons.

LOL are you serious? Just because one person was a republican or democrat doesn't mean the entire party is good...
"It is disingenuous to imply that my father was a Republican. He never endorsed any presidential candidate, and there is certainly no evidence that he ever even voted for a Republican. It is even more outrageous to suggest that he would support the Republican Party of today, which has spent so much time and effort trying to suppress African American votes in Florida and many other states."
-Martin Luther King III

You replied to the wrong person.

My bad, I just clicked on Reply without reading who it was replying to.

This image will be me in a few years when I have to vote. (I'm not American either. For the record.)

I hate talking about politics because everyone's so one sided. i like people like you who understand both sides are messed up

Democrats are more kapitalistic than the most kapitalistic party in Sweden.

I hate arguments on the internet, because every person on the internet is on one side of an argument. Not my side. Ever.

I hate niggers on the internet because every nigger on the internet is on one side of a nigger. Not my nigger. Nigger.

...you mean they aren't in the US?

could be worse you could be belgian where all the ....

wait do we even have politicians who do shit ?

Well you have the EU parliament that somehow manage to piss everyone off and acheive nothing at the same time!

Same with here in America...

According to the internet, Republicans are all redneck, bible bashing, frothing at the mouth racists and democrats are weed smoking hippie faggots.

All that is different here is which colour tie you wear.

I mean for the politicians. They're all just corrupt...
