I call myself a Conservative because:
I believe in using our nation's resources on our nation as opposed to using them enrich the rich. We should use our resources to better compensate hard working Americans. Teachers should receive far better compensation and should have all the tools they need. Our military should be used to defend America and should be given far better compensation for their duties as well. The people who cook our meals, carry our bags, drive our cabs, fly our planes, fix our pipes, build our buildings, stop fires, stop rapists, ect should all be well taken care of and should not have to play second fiddle to a crowd of self called moralists who do nothing to contribute to our nation. Instead of exploiting illegal immigrants and blaming them for our loss of jobs and economic failures we should start investing in the human capital of this country and never allow a crooked businessman to turn away an American willing to work for a living wage for the purposes of exploiting a person from a foreign land.
I believe our nation's people should all have access to health care, education, and assistance when needed during tough times. The people are this country's lifeline, they should come first above all interests of the powerful few. Without a strong educated populace this country cannot and will not thrive. I hope it's not too late to someday see this through and what we all worked so hard for and currently work so hard for be reclaimed.
I believe in conservation of land and resources and we should invest in technologies to lessen our impact on the environment as opposed to feeding the machine that works to kill it.
I believe in conserving our Constitution and the ideals of our forefathers. Religion was never a part of our Constitution nor did the founders of America insist that religion play a key role in our culture and laws. I believe in conserving this notion because I don't want to see America become another Iran only with a cross instead of a crescent as the symbol of rule.
I believe in conserving our Democracy and ensuring that it works for every American-not just for the privileged few who have the ability to buy off politicians for their own interests.
I believe that America has its scars and dark moments of history, but with those we also have our moments of pride, discovery, and ingenuity. These are things I want to conserve and not be lost under the guise of religious doctrine or fear tactics based on deceit.
I am a true Conservative. I feel like I'm the only true Conservative out there...
