(34,165 posts)Otherwise I stay mostly with my unaffiliated status. We do not have Independents here in Kansas, or did not since I came back for Bernie. We caucus so I have to be a Democrat. Tell you why, are you even interested? The Democratic party here is as right as any party. They tell you that you do not really get to represent another besides who they have chosen. At the second rounds of the caucus, I was told that it was Kerry or I could go home. Screw the people who sent me to caucus for another. I have friends that have been clawing their way to the top of the party and working hard to make it actually be liberal. We had a guy running things who wanted the party to accept anti abortion policies and anti gay policies, that is what it was. I help them as an unaffiliated person, when they need me to vote Democratic I change to the Dems IF the Dem is an actual liberal, I will never vote for someone espousing RW points. I have never voted for Ron Paul nor do I think he or Rand have a decent bone in their bodies with the exception of their anti war stances and that is all I really care to know about them. I toyed around with Nader because I live in Kansas, my vote has never actually counted on a National level, I could vote for Santa Claus and it would count as much as a vote for a Democrat. I did not vote for Nader, not for the reasons I usually see here spoken by people who hate the man regardless of the excellent things he has done for this nation before he ran against Bush**.
I find your comments stupid, clueless, rude and without merit. Unless someone has told you where they stood before, you have no fucking clue. You want to make Bernie supporters out to be horrible people? Clean your own house first.
