Democrat or Republican? Poll for all Democrat's or Republican's

tedssupply

I was just wondering what coin collectors are? Democrat or Republican?

291fifth

Neither. Both parties are utterly useless. They serve their contributors and no one else.

MrKelso

Neither.

xphobe

Neither; it's a defective poll.

I believe most people are basically libertarian though they may not realize it. Everybody wants personal freedom, lower taxes and less government interference in their lives... EXCEPT {insert your pet government-funded program or restrictive law here}. Our challenge is to figure out creative ways we as a society can minimize the EXCEPTs.

Put me down with xphobe. Although I am registered, I never vote the party line.

I'm just a coin collector.

VamCollector

Neither. I don't need anyone to tell me what to think.

Partisan politics are a poor substitute for independent thought. I don't need some political party telling me what I should think about a particular issue. I tend to strongly lean libertarian, anyway, so there's plenty of junk on both sides of the mainstream political aisle for me to criticize.

lkenefic

I'm for any political party that returns us to fiscal responsibility ...regardless of whether they're the Demublicans or the Republocrats...

mhammerman

Yeah, none for me, I'm just a simple indian hunter.

JDelage

Interesting responses here.

I wish more people were libertarians at heart (or what I'd prefer to call capitalists, to mark the separation with those loonies in the LP). However, the two options are more and more freedom-restrictive. Very disheartening.

Both the Republican and Democratic parties are corrupt to the core and do more harm than good to this country and it's people.

I'm a European-American.

etexmike

Yes to the GOP.

A little disappointed in the party right now, but they will straighten out.

I picked republican.....

Don't always agree with them or vote for them, but I do not vote for liberals either.....

If I don't like the republican, I just go to the next contest.....

I would vote for a monkey to keep hittary out of the white house however.....

Shamika

Bleeding heart, tree hugging liberal with a conservative streak.

I'm a registered Republican but don't vote the party ticket and frankly I'm feeling pretty betrayed by the Republicans currently in office. But I don't see the Democrats as being any better. When voting I usually use the rule of voting against whoever is the current incumbent, and if I'm not sure which one is I tend to vote for the Independent or Libertarian candidate.

morgannut2

I always voted Republican---and worked for Nixon, Regan and Bush. But our national debt is now so out of balance and the war so mishandled I'm holding my nose this year voting for all Democrats. But in 2008 I can't think of a Republican Pres. nominee I won't support-------especially over Hillary Her Highness.

kiyote

I vote Democrat! No matter who the candidate is, no matter what the issue is; I do straight line voting for the Democrats. I get in and out of that polling booth in less than 5 minutes.

flaminio

Excluded once again . The Duopoly will stop at nothing to keep us down, even lame internet polls.

RegistryCoin

IMHO, this poll is not appropriate for the coin forum!

We live in an Oligarchy, not a Democracy and not a Republic. The Republican and Democratic parties are two branches of our Oligarchy. The third branch is the Corporate/Special Interest aristocracy. Their ultimate goal is the elimination of the "middle class" resulting in a large population of poor and uneducated people that can be easily manipulated and coerced.

For those of you unfamiliar with the word oligarchy this is from the Merriam-Webster dictionary;

"A government in which a small group exercises control especially for corrupt and selfish purposes; also : a group exercising such control"

Me too, Barndog. That is, my ancestors were all European. But I was born here, so I'll call myself a Native American, just to tweak SaintGuru

MFH

I believe in a Republican form of government; strong states rights. I vote for the best person for the office.

Djord

Not a Demosocialist, so that only leaves Republican!

I belive if you look into party agendas, the democrats would fit the bill for the destruction of the middle class.
Two big differences between the parties, the Demosocialists belive that we are stupid and social programs
and government directives will show us the light, while the republicans believe the government needs to get
out of our lives, and that people can actually make decisions.
Prime example Social Security, Republicans believe these should basically be self directed 401k plans, the Demosocialists
believe that we are stupid and would lose our money! Should I go on?

Not taking sides ultimately means you're not part of the debate. I asked a friend who usually avoids taking stands on issues why he's registered as an "independent." He said "it's like picking my nose. I like to do it, but I'm not proud of it."

HonoluluDude

None of the above. They're all self-serving a$$hole$.

Not at all.

Not taking sides with a *party* doesn't mean that you don't take sides on particular issues. I resent being told that I'm supposed to take the same side of all the issues with one party, that their side is always right. Bollocks.

TheRaven

If you look at the dims run each election and target people, they want to win elections..... After they are won then they don't have to do anything..... Look at there agenda in Congress & the Senate right now.....

Remember it was a dim that took and melted all the gold coins

eyoung429

You need a third choice to confuse the Democrats and to have the Republicans whine about it

Neither here!

Nobody completely agrees with everything a party is doing, at least if you can think for yourself..... but to say you are a down the middle independent means you, can't make up your mind on anything, go with how ever the current winds are blowing or just don't care about anything.....

I'm excited about voting for the candidate that promises complete energy indepencence in the next 5 years (using Brazil's approach), smaller government, better schools, and a lack of interest in social/moral agendas/crusades. Which party is that?

I'm with you, as long as "better schools" doesn't automatically mean "more money year after year into a bottomless pit that shows no correlation between funding levels and student performance."

Apparently, we have more facists then communists on this Forum.

I look forward to your poll about religion which I assume will be coming next.

I doubt I'll be represented in that poll, either.

Ever get the feeling you were born on the wrong planet? I get that every day...
