as for making a choice and a party affiliation....of course everyone should be free to do so, altho i wish there was a viable third party to compete with the either/or that we suffer with now.
i got hammered by somer in the past for saying i hold more with the 'legal' than the 'moral' POV as one persons moral view is not the same as another. i even said i felt compelled to start a party known as the 'constitutionalist' party...coach was kind enough to offer to join. i'm very much an 'everyone needs to mind their own business' type--my views on 'gay' marriage would bring down repents wrath in a new york minute. of course my views on gun rights would invite an immediate response from scuds.
Thanks for your answer.
I also don't agree with any one party.
Your view on "gay marriage" might be the same as mine. Government should have no say on the one choses to love, and should not provide tax advantages for such.
I'm also pretty clear on the words in the 2nd Amendment. As a hunter and gun collector, there is no good reason for the government to involve itself in my interests, unless there is proof that criminal activity has taken place with my firearms, which there hasn't.
"Moral" views are for the individual to determine for him/her self. No government has the authority to impose them on its citizens.
It is my belief that it is the citizen's responsiblity to speak against the policies of any government that does so.
Peace.
