I'm interested in writing about politics and sports. Politically, I consider myself to be an independent. I'm conservative on some issues and liberal on others. It depends on the issue.
I enjoy professional sports. I'm a fan of the New York Rangers, New York
It's customary for a sitting President to publicly endorse whoever wins the primary process of the party to succeed him. The purpose of this is forging party unity so the fight can be focused on the nominee of the opposing party. Money has to be raised from wealthy donors, corporations and ordinary Americans to pay for radio...
Eighteen isn't too young to vote. If you can fight for your country at this age and drive at this age, you should be allowed to vote. You also should be allowed to drink alcohol at this age. As young people see what is happening in this country, they will become more actively involved in politics and consequently, vote. Many...
Many illegal immigrants are being hired because they are willing to work for below minimum wage. Most native-born Americans and legal immigrants refuse to work for these extremely low wages. The illegal immigrants work for these wages because it's more than what they were getting paid in their native countries. This is occur...
The Mexico City Policy means that the U.S. government won't provide funding for overseas family planning agencies and clinics that offer abortion-related services.

It's important for the future of American democracy. It's a sad commentary on American society when more people vote on who should advance on Ameri...
The American economy is dropping because of globalization. Who favors economic globalization? The wealthy bankers and corporations of the world as well as the politicians of both political parties in the United States who service these elites. Who else? The lobbyists who fund the politician's campaigns. Take for example, far...
I hate to answer in the affirmative regarding this question but I must be honest with myself and the fellow readers of this article. Americans are dumb and uninformed when it comes to politics. Many people don't even know the names of their state's governors and their individual State representatives and Senators let alone t...
I believe that a third-party candidate will become president of the United States by 2016 or sooner. More people are registering as Independents. Less people are satisfied with the Democratic and Republican parties. More young people are registering as Independents. Due to the heightened dissatisfaction with the Congress, mo...
This depends on what you mean by ''conservative.'' Neo-conservatives control the present Republican Party. President Bush is a neo-conservative. They are big government conservatives who voted to expand Medicare. It now includes prescription drug coverage. Although some senior citizens don't have supplemental health insuranc...
Democracy can't survive in a politically correct world because not everyone is liberal. I say this because that is what political correctness essentially means. In my opinion, it's the suppression of conservative or old-fashioned thought relating to every aspect of our lives(not just politics). In terms of the environment, i...
