Description

Politically, I’m an independent. I tend to lean toward the Democrats’ thinking on many, but not all, issues. I have voted for some Republicans in the past, but recently I haven’t found any worthy of my vote. Today’s Democrats, it seems to me, are afraid to hurt someone’s feelings. You can be honest and forceful without being mean or hurtful.
