This is true.
Unfortunately we can't ignore it. Politics dictate every aspect of our lives.

This is why I'm not strictly Democrat or Republican. Nobody can force me to pick either side, either. There are Republicans and Democrats I've liked. I've seen the childish biased acts from both sides as well. If only people weren't so stubborn about shunning others in disagreement.

Oh my gosh this is so true.
Yeah, my SS teacher was like that too. He wasn't biased and made learning about governments around the world...
Fun.

I don't eat, breath and sleep it... but it IS important for people to research candidates and understand their positions on a variety of important issues (or at least what is important to them at the very least).
While both major parties in our country don't actually differ a WHOLE lot, there ARE some differences that require some thought.

I learned years ago to stop expecting grownup behavior from politicians. It's just not a realistic expectation. I'm trying to give up talking politics. I figure, if you can't play nice, don't play at all. Trying to follow my own advice.

Yes there is... But unfortunetly politics got into lifes of us all that we're pushed (almost literally) to pick a side. Especially by the media.

Yep, it's true. I don't "choose" a side, I pick the one that would do the least bit of damage and let them run the system for us, regardless of people's opinion about it.
