Capitalization matters. A lot of these people calling themselves “Republicans” couldn’t even give you a decent defintion of “republic” without Google. I think to qualify as a “republican” you ought to at least be able to do that.
To be called conservative would be much more correct for “me” than to be called a republican.
However, I will leave you to mop up my capitalization errors and I will help save the country. :) Hopefully, you still understood what I said which is way more important than being a grammar nazi.
