Are your coins Democratic or Republican....

Saints...definately Republican.

Comissioned by Teddy Roosevelt, the greatest President ever, in my opinion!

    Republican FIRST! He hated Taft so he split from the Elephants to unseat him. He lost to Woody Wilson, but he sure stirred stuff up.image

    My best coins were commissioned when George Washington was president. But I too am a fan of Teddy Roosevelt.

    I think my coin pre-dates those parties. Whig? Federalist?

    I am well aware of the fact that TR was a Republican... image

    edited to add: Taft was TR's hand picked successor in 1908. Taft did not handle the Presidency in the same vain as TR.

    "To announce that there must be no criticism of the President, or that we are to stand by the President, right or wrong, is not only unpatriotic and servile, but is morally treasonable to the American public.” - Theodore Roosevelt

    TR also gets "credit" for the Lincoln cent. It was modified to the new design
    in 1959 during Ike's presidency and then changed to a copper coated zinc coin
    during Reagan's presidency.

    Here is a coin that wastes tax payer and consumer money everytime it is used
    or thrown in the trash.

    It wouldn't seem there are any political parties who can be held blameless for
    past or current coins just as it might not be fair to credit either party with the
    successes.

    I think Libertarians are disenfranchised Repubs at heart. Unsatisfied wth the new influences and "morality" that has infringed on the concept of small Federal government, it's become a safe haven for the right to live your life in private without government interference.

    I could say that I'm a Libertarian, because I hate the moral Right, as did Goldwater, and he was considered an extremist in his day. Today he'd be a moderate...although ne never played party politics.

    The Repubs will get rid of these big government meddling moralists...they aren't thrue Repubs because they want to dictate their religious ideals in the political platform. That doesn't fly in the small Fed, states-rights belief in old line conservatism.

    Until then, I adhere to the AuH2O line. image

    Dang Jay, right on all points. We have to get the moralists of the religious right out. Say, the dems really did themselves proud today, didn't they? "Run away! Run away"

    Republican, at least the Republicans who became the Democrats. These are the coins of Jefferson, and were replaced by the man Jefferson hired.

    The fundamentalists scared their way into the party. Pharm.

    For the record, and a surprise to many, Goldwater was pro-choice, anti right-wing religious moralists and defended gays rights. He saw any legislation against women and gays as BIG government entering the pur homes...a strict taboo to true ideal conservatives.

    Keep the Feds out of my home regarding social issues. Don't tell me that morality calls should be legislated so long as no crimes or constitutionality is breached. I see nothing in the Constitution about abortion, gays, sex-laws...and the BIGGIE...stem-cell research. When the executive branch starts dictating what science can and can not do, that when I get off the bus and say "sayonara".

    That is the most appaling and inane position I have ever seen. The big tittied $20 gold lady would use that torch on the neocons homes!" image

    My coins are for the most part independent. They can speak for themselves regardless of their plastic surroundings.
