Any chance you would ever consider taking on your own party in the fight?
Because I am sick of “Democrats” becoming RINO’s because of their innate cowardice.
Am I supposed to welcome your “contribution of dilution”?
It would be honorable for disaffected Democrats to become Independents,but that would go against Democrat ideology, wouldn't it?

Wow - I don't know where that judgmental rant came from. My point in my initial post was that I come from a Democrat background and when I was young I identified with that thought process, but that when I saw Ronald Reagan, it was as if a part of me awakened and as I because a Republican.

I am not a RINO, thank you. I am socially and fiscally conservative, so you needn't worry about me diluting the party. And as for innate cowardice? I think it takes more courage to change paths that diverge from your extended social network because you see things differently.

Have you never heard the famous observation that, "If a man is a Republican at 20, he has no heart and if he is a Democrat at 40, he has no brain." Well, I was a Democrat until I was 20 and I have been a Republican since then (I am now 44).
