What do you think of the above video?

From the lens Democrat vs. Republican.

The above video is of a woman who switched from being a Democrat supporting Carter to being a Republican supporting Reagan. Her reasons for being each are what I think typically happen in America. People often do not vote according to all of the facts, only what they have been told by their peers, and then find out later that much of what they knew before was propaganda.

    She has every right to switch, it is a free country after all. And I have every right to disagree with her partial view on politics.

    I believe the party system is broken, and the tea party is cashing in on this fact. I do not think the democrats treat americans like a pet. I do not like how right and left the entire discussion has gotten, because if you have a moderate view in life, you are going to be more open minded to new ideas. That is what makes our country great! Being a moderate thinker means being able to adapt and prosper from any challenge and event.

    I think that what she says has a lot of merit, many people just keep on voting in the same party year after year because that is what they have always done.
    I agree with the thought that who ever controls the money, controls you. I am a big supporter of less government, which is directly 180 degrees from where the democrats are on things, not sure if I am for republican values but I know for sure I am not for democrats.
    thank for the video

    I too feel the same about the Democratic party, that they seek control, and that we are just to be non self-sufficient parties to their rule. I was raised Republican and with the values that this lady says her family raised her. You don't ask for hand outs, you take care of yourself, we believed in Christ, and the home was based on that. Seems anymore that that Christianity, the constitution, and morality, and being self sufficient, are gone down the tubes now with the democratic party.
