Here are some of my principles as a woodchuck.
Advertisements [?]
1. To put in the due dilligence and research necessary to evaluate the difference between Republicans and Democrats if there is ever doubt of it, which is easily accessible.
2. To be intellectually honest about the documented, objective facts regarding the difference between Republicans and Democrats, including the congressional record and lists of accomplishments of Democratic politicians.
3. To not be dismissive of these objective facts when presented them by other people.
4. To use the Internet political sphere to spread fair evaluations of the Democrats, rather than present a hyperbolic negative picture in an attempt to manipulate our elected officials.
5. To not waste the time of other hard-working activists in making said mendacious claims.
6. To not punish other people who are recieving a benefit from the Democrats by delivering an ultimatum that would affect their lives and livelihood adversely, in order to get more of what I want.
7. To take responsibility for my role in the Democratic Party by realizing that the primary candidates delivered are the result of a consensus, and that if I am dissatisfied with that consensus, that it is my responsibility to try to change it, rather than punish the rest of the people who reached the consensus.
8. To maintain my own credibility when I debate political matters, in order to respect the issues for which I advocate.


Because of these and other priniciples, I vote for Democrats.
