Neither and nothing besides those two. Because of constant controversies about politics, I can’t tell a political hero from a political villain, so I refuse to take partisan sides again.

This is a hot topic that I would not ask.

That being said, I am neither.

I am Independent which is the only thing that makes sense to me.

I have been a Republican my whole life or as far back as I can remember. I share a lot of the same beliefs as they do. :)

Although I am registered democrat (lean one), I vote for the person that I feel would be the best for the position.  I've wondered how politics would be if we got rid of the democrat and republican parties.  Some people only vote for the party, not the person.
Have a wonderful day!

I am neither. I maintain independent thinking an vote on issues rather than candidates. My primary focus, with issues, rest with those that present the brightest future for my children. I try to call it like it is and give praise where praise is due. For instance, I e-mailed Colorado's Congressman, Cory Gardner, to let him know my stance on net neutrality.We are already seeing corporate greed move in as comcast offers faster internet service to individuals that buy more expensive entertainment packages. I depend on fast internet fifty hours a week while working from home. I do not have time to watch television so the slower internet speed would cost me money. Cory Gardner stands against net neutrality which, in essence, puts him in a position of costing me money. This is a strike against him getting my vote but I will see how hestands on other issues.

I'm a registered Democrat. But I consider myself to be a conservative Democrat.  I try to be open minded on the issues of the day.

I am registered Republican but when election time rolls around I do my research on all the candidates and  so that I can chose the person who I think will do the best job for the people regardless of what party he is affiliated with.

I am still of the belief that our politicians work for us, the People of the United States, not the party that they are affiliated.  It is time for the politicians that we elect and we pay to put the needs of the people that they serve first.

Democrats of today are more socialists & globalists.
The Democrats of JFK are now Republicans....  the fact that "republicans" are now voting for tariffs, anti-nafta, anti-tpp which all benefit unions is a game changer for the parties.

In California, we had two democrats run for Senate, one was a Union based Democrat - Loretta Sanchez... & one was Kamala Harris.  I was surprised when Harris won, she is a socialist - left of Bernie Sanders.... but it makes sense now because the Democratic party has gone so far Left.

Republicans are the same, they are so many variations, the party needs to break apart.

We need to have more political parties in the USA.

I am an independent now... because no party is what they say there are any more.   Times are changing.

I'm a Republican now but used to be kinda a democrat back when I was a young adult and didn't pay that much attention to politics.  The Democrats have gone way too far left to suit me but there are several Republicans that disappoint me too these days.  Some don't have what it takes to stand up with Trump; instead they'll let the Dems destroy us with their extreme liberal panty-waste ideas.
