Something that I have always been curious about is everyone’s political background.
A lot of people in “the real world” that I know are amazed that I love me some politics, and find it odd how I can be amazed that they do not have a concern about such a major factor in their lives.
Other people I know, such as my cousin is to the right of Bush, I mean, he is hard core right….reads and passes on anti-Democratic and anti-Obama conspiracy theories, etc. But he, like me, was raised in a very liberal Jewish family.
Others I know toe the party line of what they were raised.
I know that my parents were both Democrats, albeit on the different ends of the spectrum. My father was very socially liberal but very foreign policy conservative. He is the one I take after the most. He always vote Democratic except for 3 or 4 elections that I know of. My mother was more of a yellow dog Democrat, though, unlike my father she was never open about who she voted for, but it was obvious to all of us.
So… how about you? Did you keep your parents ideology?
