Fishhead7 Posted October 20, 2018 Report Share Posted October 20, 2018 I was a huge fan of JFK ... yes I was too young to vote at the time, but would have voted for him. That said, when I was old enough to vote I went R and didn't look back Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shipwreck Posted October 20, 2018 Report Share Posted October 20, 2018 Me. Actually I was always independent, but I tended to vote more liberal in my younger years. Dumber too. I wised up. And it was not that the conservative side 'drew' me to it. The left drove me away, I tried it, its crazy.

55555s Posted October 20, 2018 Report Share Posted October 20, 2018 Many in my family were Democrat as a function of very local politics. I respect that. I figured being Democrat was the appropriate choice. As a kid I vividly recall watching Carter and Reagan, and also recall saying "no" to the former and "yeah" to the latter. Never identified nor registered D. I was a staunch R for a bit in my earlier professional career, but grew up and out of that as well. . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DMacLeod Posted October 20, 2018 Report Share Posted October 20, 2018 This saying has a lot of truth If you aren't a liberal at 25, you have no heart. If you aren't a conservative at 35, you have no brain. PCstriper 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Riverboat33 Posted October 20, 2018 Report Share Posted October 20, 2018 In a 7th grade mock election I voted for Nixon. After I got out of the military, I voted for Carter, yes I was young and thought a good man would make a good president. I was wrong ! Went Libertarian for a while, then R, since Clinton. The biggest fish in the river gets that way by never being caught. Edward Bloom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PCstriper Posted October 20, 2018 Report Share Posted October 20, 2018 Grew up in a Democratic household and registered as a Democrat when I turned 18. Was a registered Republican before my 21st birthday and have been an Independent since W's second term. In my opinion W tried to please everyone and just managed to piss off those of us who voted for him, not willing to stand up to the Libs was my biggest problem with him.

Nessmuk Posted October 20, 2018 Report Share Posted October 20, 2018 Started out a lot further left when I was a kid. That was when feelings meant more than facts. The older I got, and the more I needed to understand issues and have positions based on reality, the more conservative I became. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
