You can't put me in a box, you can't label me one way or the other. I refuse to be cornered by a definition. I am neither Democrat nor Republican. I do not completely agree or disagree with either platform.
We have spent hundreds of years seeking equality among people but we will never have equality until we refuse the labels of one party or the other.
Why do I have to FULLY agree with one of the other? Why can't I simply agree or disagree with one issue or the other?
I used to side with Democrats because I wanted to help people. I thought they helped people and I thought helping people was the most important thing in the world. I thought Democrats were more focused on equality. But how do I agree with a party that supports a War on innocent babies? How do I call myself a Democrat without others looking at me as if I'm evil because they think I agree with abortion? I don't agree with it at all. I think it demoralizes women. I think it allows women to commit murder legally. I think it tells women it's okay to act irresponsible and have no self control. When any other person commits a crime - by behaving irresponsible, negligent and by not controlling themselves - they are fined and imprisoned. Why do we tell women they can legally act this way?
On the other hand I agree that we have No Right to judge people based on whom they choose to marry - whether it's the same sex or a different race. The gov't nor man has any right to judge another human other than by their heart. They need to shut their eyes if they don't like how it looks and close their mouths. I'm amazed at the Christians who judge others based on anything other than a person's heart. Have they read their bibles? Did they understand Jesus' message?
I used to believe my purpose in life was to help others but I no longer believe this way. I see Democrats making Americans dependent and creating slaves to make the gov't a profit - I believe every great idea they come up with to help someone in need has a selfish ulterior motive. I have realized that too much help creates people who are depressed and angry and who don't appreciate you viewing them as unable to take care of themselves. I am not referring to the elderly or the children in need, I'm referring to able-bodied adults. Teach them to fish and stop feeding them a fish every day.
As for Republicans and their anti-gay stance, I completely disagree with their opinion that they have a right to define what is or is not a marriage.
I do believe that all people coming into America should follow the laws and be held responsible. I also believe that it is reason they are cheated out of fair wages because they are here illegally. I know we need their labor and that they should follow the requirements to enter America and work but they should also be compensated for their labors the same as other Americans if they follow the laws and requirements to live in America. I see the benefit for them in requiring them to follow the laws - I am not supporting it because I don't think they should be here.
These are not all the issues but they are the ones at the moment which concern me the most.
So I'm neither Republican, not Democrat but in this election - I cannot side with a Democrat for certain. The most heinous crime, most ungodly and immoral that has resulted in more than 50 million deaths over the past 40 years is abortion. I will never support any candidate that not only destroys innocent children but also encourages immoral and irresponsible behavior which degrades women - mentally and spiritually.
You can choose your own way. You can have your own opinions. I'm not asking you to agree with mine nor am I trying to change your label. I'm simply stating my beliefs and my opinions - for the record.
I may support and vote for a Republican but I do not agree with them on every issue.
