11. It sounds like you are kind of mad at us, not vice-versa
Why do you feel that the Democrats don't care about white people? I feel that the Democrats care about everybody, regardless of their attributes. The Republicans care about nobody but themselves imo.

I didn't hear Kerry make a priority of gay rights or racial equality issues. I heard the right-wing dominated media tell everybody that Kerry was "too liberal." But when I actually read the transcripts or heard his speeches, it seemed to me that Kerry was talking about exactly what you are talking about.

The fight over parental notification is a good example. What is that Democrats want? They want a girl to have the right to talk to a judge and get his permission to have an abortion if her father was the one who raped her and got her pregnant. We Democrats don't think that a girl who was raped by her father should have to get his permission to have an abortion - she should have the right to talk to a judge in that special instance.

Do you agree with that? If so, you're probably a Democrat. Do you think that the father who raped his daughter should be allowed to prevent her from having an abortion? If so, you're probably a Republican.
