I'm going to be honest with you, I'm right of center. Normally, I wouldn't be caught dead voting for the DNC. But things have changed in this country. Liberty's going away. Law and order is going away. This isn't the America I used to feel proud about. This is another dictatorship that I remember as a kid, America used to chide. We felt proud of this country for not being a dictatorship..... Now, the America that we all fought hard to preserve is going down the tubes.

I'm a guest on your forum. I will not try to interject when it comes to basic Democratic policies. But when's all said and done, we all love America and we want the best for it.
