Why I Am A Democrat

I believe in the Constitution of the USA. It defines our government as for the people by the people. My voice is my vote. I vote in my Representatives to make decisions in my best interest through a Democratic Republic.

The Constitution honors the separation of church and state so that I have the freedom to worship or not.  The way I want.

I believe in the equality of everyone that means no matter how much money I have, what color I am, whom I choose to love or no matter what gender I am or my disability. I believe this has to extend to every part of life for everyone from the justice system, to healthcare to housing and to education.

I believe in protections of the government. My government needs to protect me not just from outside tyranny and terrorists but from gun violence and military weapons on our own streets threatening the children and the citizens where I Live. The government needs to protect me from Corporate power. I want to make sure my government regulates industry, capitalism and monopolies so that I am not taken advantage of through scams and pollution.  That companies are not allowed to lie to me to get my money or to foul me into buying something that isn’t what they claim. They are not allowed to use poisons in my food. They are not allowed to pollute the land. 

Equality for all
The right to fair justice
The right to healthcare for all
The Right for Women to be in control of their healthcare
The Right for shelter
The right to eat
The right to have clean air and water
The right to be educated
The right to go to school without fear
The right to be safe form gun violence
The right to free speech yet the right to the truth in the news
