I'm a Democrat becasue I believe hope is the stuff of dreams, and I believe in keeping that hope alive.

Wow and here I was thinking the video was going to be full of hollow slogans and platitudes bereft of any substance, like the 2008 election. But clearly the bearded hippy-kid in the red shirt really knows how to articulate a concise and detailed summary of his ideology.

Why am I a Democrat? Because I enjoy being irresponsible with my body and your money.

Why am I a Democrat? Because I enjoy getting free stuff at somebody else’s expense.

Ah, the musings of a first-semester, know-it-all college student. Does he mention a jam-band and how crunchy they are?

Your a Democrat if you believe spending 8 times the revenue is sustainable.

Your a Democrat if you believe that forcing people to buy Medical Insurance is constitutional.

Your a Democrat if you believe making folks change their roofs, water-heaters, Furnaces and A/C units -before you can sell your house is reasonable in this economy.

Your a Democrat if you believe Gay Marriage should be forced upon all the States and against the will of the people.

Your a Democrat if you believe Judges can Legislate from the bench.

Your a Democrat if you believe that it's sane to let Guantanamo Prisoners onto U.S. soil where they can be freed by Liberal Justices upon the American people.

Your a Democrat if you believe that Marriage should not be defended.

Your a Democrat if you believe the legislature can spend it's way out of this economic morass.

I've met a lot of Democrats lately that meet all these.

What’s wrong with the first guy’s face? Did he look like that before he became a Democrat or after? Inquiring minds want to know.

Why am I a democrat? Because I hate America, despise capitalism, blame Bush for everything, stand for open borders and kick puppies.

I'm a Democrat because:

I'm a moron

I'm a genetic mutant

I'm a simpleton

I need to be in a mental hospital under observation

I rode my Harley into a tree at 110 mph without a helmet

My pregnant herpes-infected mental-defective girl friend thinks I'm cool

I ate too many Twinkies

Stephen Spielberg said I should be

I like hanging around with long-haired, dope-smoking, lice-ridden Daily Kos assholes who all think like me.

I’m a democrat because:

1) The prof. will give me an A.

2) I don’t have to remember silly facts

They must have edited out all the Democrats saying they were for freedom and individual liberty. Didn’t see any...

I’m a Democrat because:

Your money isn’t really yours.

Your property isn’t really yours.

I believe the courts should step in when the little people vote wrong.

Victory on a battlefield is racist.

Wall Street really does need taxpayer money.

You’re racist.

You’re sexist.

You’re homophobic.

National borders are a myth.

You’re too stupid to understand Global Warming.

You’re not trustworthy with firearms.

College professors really are underpaid.

You’re greedy.

You just think I’m a Democrat. I actually have no bias.

“Freedom” is racist and antiquated.

We need average working class joes like Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid fighting for the little people.

I smoke a lot of pot.

I’ve never held a real job.

They use your money to pay me.

I’m a Democrat because I cherish the air of smug superiority that comes with being told I’m smart, sophisticated and compassionate in spite of all evidence to the contrary.

said, "I'm a Democrat because I believe hope is the stuff of dreams, and I believe in keeping that hope alive."

What was funny about that guy was he was the only one that looked and sounded like he had a spark in his head, everyone else sounded like air heads memorizing a script.

Funny - that’s exactly the recruiting technique that communists use on young people... funny how they use the same techniques, isn’t it? Almost as if they are the same movement.
