No, I wouldn't say I am an elitist as don't have those liberal slants. I believe that to each its own. I believe that we shouldn't take from people who barely make enough to support themselves so that we can give to others who don't want to work. This isn't being an elitist this is being realist.

I don't believe in taking money from me and other people who work hard b/c people want to come to this country illegally and thus I have to pay their medical bill and their welfare benefits. Primarily I am not an elitist because I have had to earn what I have today. My dad used to stomp it in my arse that when I graduate high school that is it, I am on my own. He raised me to do well and I have persevered. I did what I was suppose to do and I am doing well.

I compared the two upbringings of Bush and Kerry because of the similarities in schooling and also the similarities in some policies of late that the president has been poking and prodding in order to garner more votes. I want him to stick to his guns, stick to what is right for the people not what is right for the moment. This is what a non-elitist would do.
