Reply #4: My side = peeps that will protect the rights and freedoms of all, not just

[slay]

those currently in power. Human rights are human rights, regardless of who is in power. This is what can truly set us apart from the my side/your side tactics employed by the republican party. It doesn't have to be about labels. Yes the democrats seem better than the republicans to me. And the liberal dems seem better than the centrist dems to me. And if I keep going I'm sure I can finally distill my beliefs down to the one tiny group that truly represents me as an individual, but will be useless in trying to change the world for the better. The big draw of the Democratic Party to me has always been their (supposed) support of freedom and protecting the rights of ALL people. I hope this view does not turn out to be too "liberal" for the democratic party.
