I have always considered myself to be a Republican, mainly for religious and moral reasons such as abortion and prayer in schools. Some things about the Republican party I sometimes disagree with is limited government. I think the great depression taught us that there are times when the government has to step in to help us help ourselves.
I do not think America needs political parties, however I think we're going to be stuck with Republicans and Democrats running the show for a long, long time. Political parties would be fine if our leaders and politicians actually believed in the issues they claim to. It's all about money and power, and who has the ability to get elected.
I did some research on the Libertarian Party. They are the third largest political party in the United States, and believe in not intervening in foreign policies, and personal freedom the way it was meant to be when our great country was founded.
blogs I commented on:
-Stacey Clark
-Matthew Cooper
-Robert Devaney
I agree America does not need political parties. In my opinion America has just got used to having political parties and most people just go along with what they hear. I like that you pointed out mostly everything is about the money and power, I believe this to be 100% the truth.
