KawaNow Member Election Politics

[dui546]

My degree is in Sociology and that can be viewed as just looking and learning about the behaviors of groups of people.

Therefore, given all the 2008 election hype...I think it would be interesting to simply learn what political party the majority of KawaNow members "rally" around.

Hopefully you will find this interesting and not just a mud slinging or free for all...although a good muddy wrestling match can be hilarious and lots of fun too.

This is hard for me to answer. I am generally conservative and have usually voted republican in the past but I just changed my registration to "unaffiliated" (not independant) because I want to vote for Obama in the upcoming primaries. I used to be WAY right wing and thought all democrats were "evil" but the more I listened to people like Rush the more I started questioning and I started noticing that the far right has many people who proclaim to be the good honest moral ones....... but often saw them not practicing what they were preaching. No offense to anyone just my observation. Participating in Bush's war really made me do some soul searching. I try to look at the candidate and not the party. I like Obama and Romney but I don't like Hillary or Huckabee. I think the electoral college needs to go BYE BYE.

I agree with you WM on looking at the candidates individually and not having to be in a war. I did that for years too.

However, having been through too many lost jobs in CA due to the high cost of doing business here (read: taxes), I want to support those candidates that are pro business and have also fought in a war. After all, who do we get our paycheck money from and why do we want to put them out of business or send them to China? I think the war veterans are more likely to keep us out of conflict unless it's a last resort because they've been there.

That's where the Republicans come in for me. When everybody that wants to work has a job, we don't need excessive taxes to support the freeloaders.

Another major concern for me personally is with the anti gunners such as Obama, Clinton, etc.

Just my 2 cents.

I called myself an Independent. Started out Republican. Voted for more Democrats in Idaho than I ever thought I would mostly because the Republicans are so strong in this state that a turnipseed labeled a Republican will get elected. Scary. Not happy with any of them right now. Dems have gone off the deep end deamonizing Bush and the Republicans are spineless clods affraid to do what needs done. We should have a double tier fence, we should be drilling for oil in the Gulf of Mexico and ANWR, we should NOT be taxed to death. The good old gov'mint needs to get the Hell out of our lives.

Sorry, had to rant. I hung up on the RNC fundraiser last night and was not very nice.

I tried to modify the choices to add Libertarian it but it was not an option. I think the winds of change are definitely blowing. Unfortunately, for better or for worse is the true question.

I enjoyed the questionnaire Beezer...it was very interesting.
