Post Ford owners are Democrat, Republican, or ??????

Just my twisted curious mind wondering what the majority of Ford owners were. If its a private matter to some then I apologize...no offense intended. I'm not flaming any party or president or ex-president. Just curious.

I myself am 21 male in the military and am registered republican.

I don't about Ford owners in general, but from past discussions here and in similiar situations most Mustang owners are either republicans or idenpendants which lean strongly that way (go McCain!). I think very few people here voted for Al.

Being only a couple years removed from the Navy I am still bitter about the previous administrations view toward our Defense Dept members. I will say that I am not of slick willy's party.

I cannot speak for everyone, but I would like to think that we are mostly Republican or Libertarian given that most of us love what freedom we have to modify and work on our cars without needing to apply for government approval. (that freedom has been partially taken away for late model owners through emmisions requirements)

I'm independant, I like the sensibility of the democrats (taxes, education) but I like he republicans cause of their other lobbying (mostly on second ammendmant, guns). I HATE GW, I really think that he is a complete and utter idiot, I think Gore would have been a much better choice, no to say that he's good either. Despite Clinton's idiocy, he wasn't to bad, but if I could vote, I would have voted for Nader.

While I don't agree with 100% of the Republicans ideas, I sure as hell won't vote Democratic any time soon unless they somehow change most of their ways. So yeah, chalk me up into the Republican/Independant group.

I hated Clinton since the beginning and I Really and I mean REALLY Hate Hillary, so no big surprise I don't like Gore either. I voted for Dubya. I have to spell it that way because the Democrats broke into my house and ripped the "W's" off all my keyboards. HeHeHe

Just a friendly warning to everyone, keep it clean. Carnivore is watching us all (for those of you who know).

Hardcore Republican here. Remember when we had the "gore or Bush" thread here a few months back? I said I'd vote for the human. I mean, I at least want a commander-in-chief who moves his limbs and doesn't sigh at everything, much less talks like a kindergarten teacher to everyone. I'm tired of the government taking all of my money anyway. GO GW!

Most people don't know it, but the predecessor to carnivore, echelon, has been watching us for many years.

Its a program that goes though the internet and scans for potentially dangerous matrail. Reportitly there was a comment made on another site's board which triggered the program and led to the admins and the user in question getting some interesting phone calls from some interesting people.

Democrat! That doesn't mean I voted for Al(actually, I wasn't old enough yet), but I sure as hell wouldn't vote for GW.

I'm Republican, but I vote for what I believe. That means I would drink piss before voting for Mr. Gore, Mr. Hillary Clinton, or Mrs. Bill Clinton.

GO GW!!! Heck Yeah! 'Bout time we got us a home grown Texan back in the White House! Heh, heh.

Seriously, he did a good job in Texas and he's kickin' the crap off his boots in Washington. I don't care what you think about the guy, he gets stuff going...oh, and he's a pretty good 'ol boy in person, too...not one of those fake bill-board (no pun there...well, ok, maybe just a bit) washouts who paints on a new advertisement with every nuance in public opinion.

I'm a independent. I believe in the Constitution, lower taxes, individual rights, and less gun control. I'm a little conservative and a lot libertarian.

Although I'm neither Democrat or Republican, I voted for Bush. I could never bring myself to vote for a socialist and incompetent liar like Algore. Things like "character" in a candidate really do matter. That's why I voted for Bush and why he's living up to my expectations and surprising the Democrats.

Generally speaking, the Republicans seem to have a lot better "common sense" approach to solving problems. The Democrats seem to think more government involvement is the answer to every problem. And invariably, they're proven wrong over and over; that government isn't the answer.

But despite the progress Bush is making, some people are just hardcore partisans and will criticize him no matter what he does. If it were Algore instead of Bush, doing exactly the same thing, the Democrats would be praising him. But since Bush is a Republican, the Democrats bash him.

Generally speaking, older, wiser and people with common sense tend to me more conservative, while younger idealists who really haven't thought deeply about anything in their entire lives tend to be more liberal.
