I am a conservative Republican. I would not be happier anywhere else on the political spectrum. I am a conservative because I value individual freedoms, limited government, the rule of law, ordered liberty, constitutionalism, American exceptionalism, free markets, Judeo-Christian philosophy, and hard work and personal responsibility. I believe that traditionalism still has importance in a modern society, and that life is important and should be protected if possible, as should be our environment through environmental conservation. The political right to me is where I feel most at home, and I have always deplored the political left, born out of the blood and violence of the French Revolution. People who mercilessly executed members of the upper class, pushed for atheism, and championed a false sense of what freedom and liberty really were. And to this day, the political left still pushes for secularism, and to socially re-engineer traditional institutions so that they will eventually fall, all in pursuit of a do-whatever-you-want attitude (such as drug use). They wish to silence speech that does not agree with them, take away our religious freedoms, demonize a love of country, and create a bloated welfare state where the rich people whom they see as enemies, must pay to give everything to those at the bottom. And the fringes of the political left, the far-left, still push for bloody revolution and violence, which does not sit well with my more pacifist nature. And the European left in particular pushes multiculturalism, which is destructive to the culture of any county. They let outside influences come and besiege their countries and re-define their cultures.
As for being a Republican, well the Republican Party is the only place for me. The Republican Party, the Party of Lincoln, the party that stood for limited government, free-market capitalism, women's suffrage, and civil rights for African-Americans. The Party has a glorious history full of accomplishment and expanding freedoms for all Americans, regardless of gender and skin color. While the party may have changed regions demographically, I still value the Republican Party as the party of freedom and prosperity today. The Party that represents the average American. While the Democratic Party represents the Coasts and urban areas, urban areas run by big union bosses. Full of political corruption and decay. Minorities have been trapped into the new liberal Democratic racism with the fall of conservative Democratic racism. Back in the day, minorities were lynched, beaten, even worse by Southern Democrats, they constantly had their rights denied, and were forced to live in fear. Today, under Northern Democrats, and those out in the West, minorities are still subjected to racism because the Democrats keep them trapped in a web of misery and poverty to ensure they will always vote for them. Democrats want no upward mobility for those people. And while in the past I have had my share of racial bias driven by stereotypes (unfortunately), I cannot support a political party with an active history of racism to our fellow man, and entrapping people in misery and poverty in order to control us. I shall be no slave to their idea of government. They are a political party that no longer believes America is a great county, and should aspire to be Europe, where the party has lost its moral values and tries to tear down religion, marriage, and desecrates life. So all in all, being a conservative Republican is what is right for me. I would not have it any other way.
