TweetJust go Vote don't tell other who to vote for. If you are able to vote you are able to read and study who is better and fits your needs in this crazy world. To many people listening to other peoples opinions. Plus all the lies on the Media... They should take money out of politics and we would see who the real caring people are. It should be a volunteer thing that we vote people into. And they would only stay a short term...

It sounds like you have a good grasp on the idea. There should be no compromise to what is American. And for anyone that believes opinon, or this ideology or that ideology is good for the country. Anyone that doesn't understand there is a correct way that America should be governed, and believes different views, varying progressive ideas, etc...is okay. That is absolutely incorrect. The Republic, if we can get back to a Republic, is the correct form of government. Not just any Republic. Many nation's governing systems around the world contain the word "republic". The Republic, which was the original state of America, was very unique and well documented. Designed and authored by men of very high intellect, and extremely knowledgable in the many diverse forms of government. Our Founding Fathers went to great extremes to document all that they could possibly think of to help the people maintain The Republic they created. A quick glance at the state we've put ourselves in could make ya wonder if all the work our founders did was in vain, but no way! A good bit of reading through their "papers"/journals/letters etc, and you learn that they were concerned if The Republic could be maintained because of the nature of man. politicians. Politicians obviously, and, what seems to be, the mentality of the majority.

To answer your question, tn94z. Pull up your local government on the web. Google your local candidates. Then read their claimed platform and where they say they stand with issues. Next, you want to see where they actually do stand with issues. You can do this by their past voting record. There's no bs when it comes to that. You should'nt have a problem locating this info.

Good Luck! Your interest, and the informed way you're going about this is so nice. It's so nice to hear someone that isn't buying what their selling. You seem to be just getting your feet wet with it, and you already know that conserving freedom is of the utmost importance. good job! You're on the right track.

Tweetbottom line is this. Do you want higher taxes and more gov spending and have more gov tell you what to do or do you want less spending,less Gov less taxes. If you want more Gov control vote DEMOCRAT if you want less GOV vote republican

TweetI love election day. feels good to vote out the idiots

Tweeti always early vote. no lines

TweetThanks, HP. I will do some reading today before I go vote after work. I have always known very little about this stuff. But once Obama came in the picture, I figured I better get on the ball to learn and understand what is going on in this country.

I heard Rush say yesterday..."If you like the way things are going, vote Democrat. If you don't like the way things are going, vote Republican." He said this election is just as simple as that.

TweetI hope that this anti democrat sentiment carries over into 2012 because if it doesnt, we're looking at another 4 years of scum in the whitehouse...how can anyone want this slimebag as president, but there are a bunch of people in this country who are clueless...

TweetPeople often say that, in a democracy, decisions are made by a majority of the people. Of course, that is not true. Decisions are made by a majority of those who make themselves heard and who vote - a very different thing. ~Walter H. Judd

TweetYes sir, Frogman. I would enjoy not seeing those 2 babble, that bs they babble, ever again.

democracy- mob rule which has proven, well capable, of maturing into a state of complete dictatorship; just as Karl Marx declared. not good.
I pledge allegiance "to flag of the Untied States of American. And to The Republic, for which it stands."
The word (democracy) was avoided by our founding fathers, as it can not be found in the The Declaration of Independance or The Constitution. Hence The Republic, which was our original governing system, and esteblished the most powerful and prominent nation in the world. The democracy, which we've become, is...well...anyone can see how that's working for America.
