Political leaning. Nature or Nurture?

Is your political slant genetic or upbringing and association in nature?
Probably both but which is the greater influence?

You can't be born gay or a Democrat. Man is born to procreate the species and to be free.

I think mine is almost strictly nature

According to the bible man is to serve , worship and follow the word of God. Hardly free.
The bible also says to follow the law of man.

And yes you can be born gay.

1. According to the Declaration of Independence man has the unalienable Right of Liberty; of course Democrats infringe upon that Right.
2. The Declaration also states that Men are created equal. How can some be born gay then? Also, in order to be born gay both biological parents would have to be gay and of the opposite sex. For them to have sex with each other they can't be gay.

so you are saying that the declaration of independence trumps the Bible/word of gawd?

I would agree, but then I thought you claimed to be religious?

Also just writing something on a piece of paper and saying it is so does not make it that way.

for example if I write here that you are stupit and most on here agree with me does that make it so?

The Declaration was written by men who understood the Word of God better than you.

What other people tell you to do can have a lot of impact on who you vote for.

But some people are contrary and won't vote no matter who tells them, or take that same energy and vote for the opposite of what someone else may want.

Or, as in my case and I'm sure many others, they'll take their frustration with things and go look for the political views that appear to resolve your most serious concerns. Sometimes I've had to change my views because of this, as some things have panned out better than others to address what I cared about.

I'm sure politics has something to do with your own personality as it has developed. What irks you is what you want fixed.

Granted, two people (or one person at different times) may find wildly different solutions to the same problem. If you're frustrated with poverty, we all know there are different economic viewpoints on how to combat poverty.

If you're frustrated by immigration, as another example, there is somebody who will tell you what you're looking for.

Politics is based around marketing too, so this part can't be ignored. Your candidate or political party in a sense isn't much different than the cell phone you decide to buy or the restaurant you decide to go to. You want the interface and features that you're looking for, or the ambiance and the fare. And rarely do you get everything you want, or things can go wrong, but possibly it's the best for you still.

...And if not, as I've found, you can always move on.

Or if you're an elitist jew, there is someone who will tell you that driving down the wages of the animalistic goyim is the right thing to do.

You're the only animalistic goy I'm aware of.

Yes... minimum wage or guaranteed minimum income?

I think you're missing the point. When you want to screw others and degrade the entire society for short term corporate profits, there will be someone to tell you it's ok.
