    You indicated one side and the other. That would imply two sides. I disagree with that. To only have two sides would indicate only two schools of thought. I believe there are more than two.

    Re-read what you just said.

    You're on the side of the Constitution, you said so yourself.

    The left has gone so far left that even what we'd call "moderate liberals" are "literally Hitler". Dave Rubin, for example.

    Let me give you an example: I am definitely considered "far right reeerrreeeerreeee" on this forum.

    Every test I've ever taken to examine my political leanings on a chart has me dead center and evvveerr so slightly to the left of middle.

    I'm a centrist, in other words.

    It's no longer about left-right leanings though.

    It's about Constitutional Republic vs Marxist Socialists.

    I said I support the Constitution. The Constitution is a living document in that it can be changed by the will of the people. The people represent more than two specific political positions.

    I would say that being "President" for 36 years might get some to tag you a dictator

    But your point is not accurate. In many aspects, Nixon and Reagan would be considered liberal RINOs today. And there is nobody in the Democratic Party today to the left of LBJ.

    Exactly right. People, especially on forums like this, have this need to label everyone. I too am pro-2A but also pro-choice. Therefore I’ve been labeled conservative and liberal depending on who I’m “chatting” with.

    THREAD LOCKED - Rules 2, 3, and 11 - Group Insults, Flamebaiting, and Failure to Establish a basis of respectful debate

    This thread was locked because the OP contains flamebait, group insults in the form of sweeping generalizations, and therefore fails to establish a basis of respectful debate. The thread wasn't deleted in its entirety because surprisingly good debate emerged in spite of the OP. For those of you who did not take the bait and debated in a thoughtful and adult manner, you are a credit to this forum.
