SHH Politics Poll 1 - Political Party

[Malice]

I thought it would be interesting to see how the SHH Politics posters rank....

Political Party

[Handsome Rob]

I don't identify with a party, but my politics are definitely conservative--between Republican and Libertarian (but closer to Libertarian).

[SuperT]

I'm very far left Liberal.

[Kurosawa]

Moderate democrat.

[The Chairman]

Moderate democrat.

[Addendum]

None

[Excel]

Independent

[Prison Mike]

Undeclared

[Tanin]

Democrat Party

[The Senator]

I demand that DEMOCRAT PARTY is changed to DEMOCRATIC PARTY, considering that is the party's actual, legal name.

Thank you.

[UA-Archangel]

Without knowing how everybody would vote, I'm betting that most will claim to be independent.

That's my prediction.

Even though most will have voted Democrat. :twisted:

[BlackestNight]

I would like to think that I’m independent (Being Registered and all). If this were a multi party system, I would most likely vote democrat. Then If I felt that they were going too far; I would vote libertarian. Sadly we only have 2 parties that hold all the power. The Republican Party just has too many Negatives for me to ever consider giving them my vote. So I’m stuck voting democrat unless Bob bar can break the Libertarian party away from the Republicans.

rofl just read that after the fact

[marcofthebeast]

Registered Libertarian.

[Hobgoblin]

Moderate democrat.

Amen.

I have yet to vote in the poll. I don't like any of the choices

[The Senator]

Just for the record... there's no such thing as the Democrat Party :huh:

[ManofmyWord]

Moderate Democrat, but just because of personal beliefs.

[danielisthor]

registered republican
actual ideals more in line with Libertarian

[moraldeficiency]

independent all the way. I can't stand either party as a whole, just some individuals.

[Ironfan72]

Democrat, have voted Republican in the past, but typically will vote Democrat.

[zenile]

Registered as a democrat, but will probably vote Republican on the big ticket for the first time. Not happy with McCain's VP pick, but will have a very hard time voting for Obama.

[Prison Mike]

are independents considered undeclared or is that whole other party all together? I have no affiliation with any party which is why I said undeclared.

[MaskedManJRK]

Libertarian, basically.

[The Senator]

Interesting how there are 25 members of the Democrat Party, considering there's no such thing as a "Democrat Party" :huh:

They are little known moochers. :hehe:

[Schlosser85]

Democrat and consider myself pretty liberal, although I do have a few more typical conservative views. I am 110% pro gay rights and I'm pro-choice, but I'm very against illegal immigration and very pro capital punishment.

[Hole Shot]

I'm a registered Republican but my voting style is more like the description written for Undeclared.

[Silk Spectre]

Wow, Libertarians have a pretty good showing on here. :D

[rdh007]

http://i230.photobucket.com/albums/ee144/rdh007/undeclared.jpg,

but I vote for very few Republicans.

[Darkly Dexter]

I'm socialdemocrat (moderate left). So, I guess that puts me closer to the Democrat Party but as I'm not american, I'm not voting for any of those in the list.

Anyway, there's a big difference between the democratic system of the United States and the one of my country. You vote the candidates, we vote the party, you vote the person, we vote the ideas. That's something I have seen very often in your elections.

Where does it say "Democrat Party" on this website? :huh:

Why isn't the title of the party changed to what it is rightfully called?

:huh:

[Downhere]

Registered Republican, although, I don't only vote for Republicans, I take it on a case by case basic.

[chaseter]

I am a liberal Republican. I would be a Democrat but they are all for some dumb ****.

[SuBe]

Wow, Libertarians have a pretty good showing on here. :D
I wonder how many of them clicked it without really knowing what a Libertarian is.

[Kelly]

I don't call myself "undecared"....I call myself "independent"....but I voted "undeclared" since that was the closest.

[UA-Archangel]

Most people who type in Libertarian do it for the "let live" part, but they don't realize that it also means that you're on your own as well.

Do you want some cheese to go with your whine?



I'm an Independent. I saw no benefit in registering with a party.

[The Senator]

Do you want some cheese to go with your whine?

Funny.

The person who started this poll has spoken out against the Democratic Party on numerous occasions, and those who are against the Democratic Party cut the name short in an effort to be insulting. Bush has done it, prominent Republicans have done it, and several posters on this forum have done it.

It seems as if bias entered the poll when it shouldn't have.

[Spider-Fan]

Undeclared. I in fact hate the "two party" system, and would like to see a third party become viable. But, won't happen anytime soon.

[Spidey-Bat]

Did you ever think you're just making it into a bigger deal than it actually is? I mean, this is an internet poll on a comic book message board.

If anyone is going to make a poll about party affiliation, it is their responsibility to make sure that they are calling the political parties what they are. It isn't necessarily hard; every single day, the media discusses "Democratic candidate Barack Obama," or discusses "the Democratic Congress." It is in print, said verbally on television and the radio... it may seem like a big deal to you, but for some of us who belong to the Democratic Party and have seen Republicans shorten the name to be insulting, it means more than you think it should.

[Yerzrinot]

Independent. I'm for the decriminalization of drugs, gays rights and I'm pro-choice. I'm also against illegal immigration I'm pro-Death penalty and I'm a non-interventionist.

So Democrats should be called Democratics?

[The Senator]

So Democrats should be called Democratics?

:whatever:

You obviously don't understand the argument I am making or the history of this epithet at all, so I suggest you read up on it.

Wikipedia actually outlines it fairly well, to the best of my own knowledge on the subject:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Democrat_Party_(phrase)

[Spidey-Bat]

And I'm sure the Democratic Party NEVER takes similar shots at the Republican Party :whatever:

[The Senator]

And I'm sure the Democratic Party NEVER takes similar shots at the Republican Party :whatever:

Anthony Weiner [who rightfully deserves his last name] has only called the Republican Party the "Republic Party" in response of Bush and co.'s constant use of the phrase "Democrat Party."

And I only use the phrase "Republic Party" whenever anyone here says "Democrat Party."

Other than that, I can't think of too many times the Republican Party has been called "Republic Party."

[SuperMonkey]

The results of that poll are just sad. :(

[Matt Mortem]

I voted undecided because I simply vote in line with whoever I feel can do the job best. I dislike the party system in place right now. We have no Americans left, theres Democrats and Republicans, it's kinda sad if you think about it. No one really gives a damn about whats best for the country anymore it seems like.

[dnno1]

I though for sure there would be more Republicans.

[squeekness]

I registered as an Undeclared so I could vote freely, but really I have pretty much always favored Democratic candidates for things. I just like to keep my options open.

[Secret_Riddle]

I'm quite Liberal.

Would never vote for a Republican unless the circumstances were very extreme. My social and economic beliefs are definitely left.

[Kelly]

I am a liberal Republican. I would be a Democrat but they are all for some dumb ****.


So you are a moderate or centrist....

[SuperMonkey]

I love how half the people that took the poll aren't old enough to vote. :) :up:

-- FunBob

[Holiday]

I love how Democrat Party still hasn't been changed.

[Spidey-Bat]

I love how Democrats are so sensitive about something so trivial on a comic book message board.

It's great not being a drone to a party.

[Holiday]

Edit. Could someone just change it to Democratic already?

[Kelly]

lol, you're kidding right?

Hey I don't like having vote I'm "undeclared" considering I'm an "Independent" but I'm not going to cry about it......

[Holiday]

lol, you're kidding right?

Hey I don't like having vote I'm "undeclared" considering I'm an "Independent" but I'm not going to cry about it......

It's not going to hurt any of the mods to add "ic" to the end of the word.

[Kelly]

Well considering the thread was made by an Admin., a mod won't be changing anything. Now, if you ask Malice nicely, he might. lol

[Holiday]

Ahh I did not know that. Thanks Kel. :yay: I will ask Malice nicely to change it though.

[Holiday]

I consider myself a Democrat though I will always vote for whoever I feel is the best canidate on the ballot, like I did in this past election.

[XpunkRocker]

that "ic" in democratic changes it completly. apparently "democratic" refers to the party, but "democrat" refers to something really bad.....just a conclusion that i came up with since everyone so against using that word.

Like kel said. I am an independent, but i am not going to freak out for having to vote undecleared. either way, the results will be the same. cute poll though
