Survey: How Do YOU View the Republican Party - 30 or Under

[Cigar]

Ever wanted to know exactly how far out of touch the Republicans Party really is.

Some of the questions also really show how out of touch the GOP is and a few are forcefully leading.

Take the survey - http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/8pxhd8y


It was really great to be young again ...

I think I'm going to take it for another spin around the block. :laugh:

Pssst, Cigar...you're about 40 to 50 years late on this one. :smiley: When people get married and get real jobs they tend to become more conservative.

An on line survey that even you claimed an incorrect age

and suggest taking it again.

Yup that's credible.

So now it's just a fun survey ??

But you claim it shows how out of touch the Pub Party is.

Make up your mind,

I took your skewered and biased survey and found it to be wanton in that it does not give adequate choices for answers.

[Mainecoons]

Credible and Cigar are oxymorons.

:grin:

[Agravan]

Cigar is oxymoron minus the oxy.

[Mister D]

He must prefer the crack rock?

[simpsonofpg]

We must be short on space to put this in.

You are 40-50 years behind too, the federal government has eliminated the need to get married or to get real jobs, therefore, conservatism is dying.

I think you underestimate our generation. We've grown up in a different culture, so while many people will became more fiscally conservative with time, I don't see social conservatism being something my generation will support. There will be a minority, but the majority. And that majority will raise another generation with their ideals and opinions. The GOP needs to stick to fiscal issues and stop trying to push through socially conservative agendas if they wish to gain support from gen Y onwards.

Yes, the GOP is going to have to orientate itself toward markets and push cultural issues off to the states, or push them to the side altogether if it wants to succeed in attracting the votes of Gen Y. It's something I like to think of as the Ron Paul consensus. On college campuses that I've been to, Ron Paul tends to be an extremely uniting figure, with even many college liberals liking him. Conservatives I know at my campus tend to be more socially libertarian, support gay marriage and all of that.

I'd agree. I'm extremely far to the left but I have a heavy amount of respect for most libertarians and the general ideology.

I'm not much older than you. I don't think it's so much that we've grown up with a different culture but that we've grown up with no true culture at all.

In any case, what I described above has been the dynamic. People change as their lives change. It's one thing to be a college student or a early 20s hipster (not referring to you). It's quite another to have a spouse and children. Don't underestimate yourself. :wink:

I consider myself a man of the right in terms of disposition but I have moved to the left on many issues.
