44. Raised in a Republican household.
At 12 I was inspired by JFK and the "bleeding heart Liberal" agenda. It made sense to me. Although the adults in my life never were fair they taught me to believe in fairness, The Democratic agenda of that time espoused the fairness to everyone that my 12 year old soul cried out for.

Sadly I see all sense of fairness, not only from the Democratic party but from the populace in general seeping away to be replaced by something far more sinister than the 80's "me generation".

It's an ugly world when the party platform I've always admired and lived by is being eaten alive by pragmatic bipartisan vermin.
