Re: A political random thought
I grew up in a home with a combined income of about fifteen thousand dollars a year. That's not a whole lot of money in America during the seventies and eighties. Actually my first home was trailer or a caravan. Both of my parents dropped out of school and spent most of their lives as seasonal agriculture laborers. I have been the recipient of government assistance and I have experienced the sort of redicule and prejudice from others who had the "life of fortune" you suggest I speak from. I do understand need so there is no need imply that not being liberal is equal to having no sympathy and believing in no assistance for anyone.
I believe the main difference between both ideals in America is the qeustion of more or less government. I see it as the choice between the Democrats and European democracy or the Republicans being the most electable party that will represent and defend my CONSTITUTIONAL REPUBLIC. There's a whole lot more but time isn't on my side.
