1) Which political party do you most identify with? Why? Are there things in the party platform with which you disagree?
I can't say that I wholly agree with any one party. I have found since 1980, when I really began to listen to debates and speeches from candidates, that there are points from both that I agree with, and things that I disagree with. Right now the big thing is Obamacare. I don't believe that Government has any right to tell us we have to buy something we can't afford or do not want.
2) Does America need political parties? The founders originally hoped that American politics would operate without need of parties? Would that work today? Why?
I think America would be in total chaos if there were no political parties. How would the people pick a president? The party system has been around so long, I can't even imagine them not being here.
3) Please research lesser known parties- which one do you identify with? why?
Tried to research the Libertarian Party and every time I put an 'address' in it told me server not found. But from what I've heard about them, I think this might be good party to study further.
1) Kylie Corrigan
2) Robert Johnson
3) Dexter Pelfrey
