Republican, Democrat, or other? What do we have more of here? What reasons do you like one party over the other?

I have heard that the majority of the military tend to support the Republican party, although I am sure it is not a complete landslide.
More recently it seems that the Libertarian party has gained a lot of ground among service members.
I am doing a survey to see which way people in this group lean but I would also like to hear everyone's opinions on why they like one over the other, or what would get them to change their minds, or what they do and don't like about each party.

I vote based on the individual candidate, not along party lines. If I did have to align with a party, it would probably be Libertarian.

I am a conservative boardering on libertarian in principal. Wen it comes to voting, I follow the advice of William F. Buckley. To papaphrase it he said to campaign for the most conservative candidate and at election time, vote for the more conservative of the two.

I don't vote according to party lines... I consider myself a fiscal conservative.

I don't know what I am. I'm pro guns, groups over the individual in possibly socialist ways, pro-science, mandatory military/government service, constitutional standard, big government (health, education, transportation paid by government service), anti political correct, for capital punishment as in back in the gladiators era, freedom of all religions, marriage/union rights (isn't marriage religious?), separation of church and state, separation of sponsor/donor/lobbyist and politician, term limits for all, other energy resources, pro mens/womens right to choose, blue, red and white.

I agree SFC Sczymanski, but independent however by definition seems lonely and I believe that I am a very charismatic guy. That being said, its hard to just vote party lines just because I look better with a red tie then a blue tie. Oh well, in the military we always do more with less so less party atmosphere might do us wonders.

But that's Jacksonian Democrat.
Anti-elitist/pro-public participation in government, anti-government banking/pro-free market, anti-regulation/pro-libertarian, originalist.

I am registered independent, however, all the smoke and mirrors garbage from democrats, along with issues that republicans try to actually "make" an issue out of is ridiculous. The current CIC, in my opinion, has damaged our Nation as a whole, severely. His disdain and lack of respect, along with no concept of operational security has given our enemies ammunition and the desire to continue their war on freedom.
Personally, I feel that the vast majority of politicians would not be worth throwing crap at, if I were a monkey at the zoo. They are self serving, criminal jackasses who think we are their "subjects"....

I do not like any of the parties and believe they are all nothing more than mobsters who do nothing for this country but get paid outlandish paychecks for tearing this country apart.I believe that we need to nix all of them and start with a fresh and new government.
