Being democrat or republican doesn't make you a bad or good person

If you really think about it, there are good Democrats and good Republicans, just like how being religious or atheist doesn’t automatically make someone good or bad. My views are kind of a mix; I’ve met great and not-so-great people from both sides. It’s the same with religion too.

At the end of the day, it’s not about labels or sides, it’s about character. Whether in faith, politics, or work, what really matters is how someone treats others and whether they do their job with integrity.

I guess I’m just venting a bit, but sometimes it feels like people forget that.

both of these would probably be considered "good" people as both of them had strong character etc...

You might want to think about this: I am a former Democrat, now an Independent Voter who has voted the straight Republican ticket for the last three elections. I am not too proud to change my stripes.

The Democrats I came from are called Blue Dog Democrats. They are the most conservative branch of the Democrat party.

I LISTEN to the Progressive Democrats, and it seems to me that they have decided to support policies which I consider to be abysmally stupid, and those policies trend toward socialism and communism and the destruction of this country...and I believe that destroying this country is evil.

So I suggest that you, and everyone else, LISTEN very carefully to what people are actually saying, and THINK about WHERE it will lead in the future.
