Would consider joining a new political association if their beliefs were the same as your own?

Yes I am open minded enough to do that. However I more believe the spoken word and actions that are done by people in control. For instance the repuglicans say they back the constitution when in fact they are taking rights away almost every election, and it is the democrtatic party that stands more for the bill of rights.

My political persuasion is my own.\n\nI am an affiliate of NO political party.\n\n\nWhy? Because they are full of s h i t.

i do not have a political affiliation i never agree %100 with one so why should i follow them.  I think of my own ideas and believe what i would like.  The most important issue is national security and terrorism, because without our own security and having invaders, nothing else can ever be accomplished.

Do this; type in your search window ' define ideology '. Your app is incorrect. All parties purport to espouse an ideology else they wouldn't attract new members.

Certainly, think Operah would be a great choice. Lose the male ego & let some-one who can communicate with the masses have a go... Then again look what Thatcher did to Britain!

I do consider their religion when I vote only in the sense that they allow their religious institution to influence them. Otherwise, what their actual religion may be is not really the reason I vote for them. I listen to their views on different issues and their ideas for resolutions to problems on the various issues. If they say that their religion is "blank" and then say that their religion helps to guide them in the decision making process, that does not necessarily make me go "Oh no can't vote for you". Instead what I look at is how close their ties are to their religious institutions and whether they say things like "Well my religion tells me......and therefore this is how I will vote on that issue". In fact, the more they bring up "what my religion tells me" the more likely I am not going to vote for them. Reason...I've found that politicians that use the phrase "My religion tells me" are often the same politicians that are very closely tied to their religious institution and therefore what their religious institution is advocating, well it is them, not us the electorate, that they represent and listen to. If they say "Well I believe..............and I got this from what my religion teaches about............and the lessons I learned from that teaching helped me with some aspects of my plan" well the key words are "some" and "believe" and "teaches" and "lessons". The politicians like this usually hold strong beliefs, but if you look over their plans you'll see that they are not framing their religion into law, but instead have considered that others might have a different perspective. These politicians, while religious, often also do not always agree with their religious institution and will often outright say so on the areas where they disagree.

Why not. Who would a dead voter be more comfortable with than 1 of his own?

~Sounds like you are independant.  Its supposed to be a matter of personal preference.  Just because you register as one particular pary doesn't mean you have to vote that way.  Unfortunately most people forget this.  My advice is to ignore the party affiliation and pay attention to the issues and the causes in question.

I think it's important to have an ideology. Unless you stand for something, you'll fall for anything.

you can take part totally legal in civic organizations, wich actually does things to make the world better, see greenpeace, etc. And they must have lawyers, who are experts in the problems of legality (what is considered rebel, and what CAN you do). So you don't have to choose between apathy and illegality at first sight. you might end up on some kind of rebel, but join a reliable organization, consult their specialist about the chances and the why-s and the chances to achieve any change at first.\nYou're not alone. :D

we share similar but different views on politics and life. im just me. if you want to call me a liberal than whatever but i dont see myself belonging to any groups. mainly because i cant agree 100% with an individual group. my political ideas are intermingled. i would say though that i am more liberal than conservative. my parents are more conservative but have a few liberal ideas too. they are good people.

nice.\n\nI think vigilantes would be better, might take a few bungs though.\n\nStill, those in power don't seem adverse to that do they.\n\nOr a wealthy benefactor?\n\nAll good ideas, I'd join.

It depends on your beliefs.

One could only hope others would be openminded enough to consider things from all sides.  If I heard evidence from the other side that actually made sense and shook my own beliefs, it might sway me.  That's never actually happened to this point.
