Which are you?? Think of old school against new school, would you keep your old ways and be conservative or would you let go and join the liberals ways?? You decide 2 weeks.

clarification Please..are we talking about political beliefs here or...? I'd be glad to take a shot at this but your invitation seems a bit vague to me.

Write a poem about our political views?
Oy, I sense conflict among DU members, well hopefully not. Okay, I will try, but I will be a discreet as possible and not come out directly with my views.

Might take a shot but especially in today's world, liberal and conservative aren't as far apart as they first appear on the surface. I certainly wouldn't identify either as "new school".

Liberal with my money
while conserving
all your own,
instead of thinking how
to better serve
the greater good,
you make yourself at home.
If Marx said it would happen,
Adam Smith said
that it might;
the only difference
between the two
is time of day
or night.

There are some things I'm conservative about and then there's somethings I'm liberal about. It's not old school vs new scool. When it comes to education I'm liberal. Education should be free. When it comes to sex I'm conservative. I think pornography should be illegal. What you do in your bedroom is between you and that person. I don't want to see it. Homosexuality makes me want to throw up. I don't date outside my race or ethnic group. When it comes to religion I'm liberal. If you want to worship Satan then that's you. When it comes to money Im stuck in the middle. I am an Independent voter I dont belong to a political party

The Directional Arrow
When it points east
Red bloodlines come
Erupting from a place
Of corruption and horror
When it points west
Blue bloodlines come
Erupting from a place
Of equality and true patriotism
Long long ago
The arrow did not
Point east or west
But Washington did warn
The dismantlement of our
Nation because of the armies
Of east and west
But corruption ceases
In moments of …
Wait…never does
Rage roams
Through these
“God Blessed United States”
Religion: another divisive force
Corrupts the east
Corrupts the east’s states
Know and behold the racism
Of east, the sexism of the east
The anti-American of the east
The west reigns supreme
In all aspects
The east must look the mirror
However, the mirror of the east
Has already shattered…

Conservatives. Liberals. In the end we are all Americans
Americans with good hearts and major flaws
Americans that despite our short comings, still can stand tall.
In the end we all want the same things
Success. Love. Happiness. Respect. Peace within
What we have to do is stop pointing blame at each other
and instead find common ground, and uplift our sisters and brothers.
If we all want those 5 core things
Why don't we stop and work together to bring...
a brighter future for our youths
a world without hate?
See, what I don't understand is
why we refuse to learn from our past Father's mistakes?
War isn't necessary
Peace can be found
but only when we create and take action, now.
See, it seems to me it's all about the money
Tax us, cut us, bill us 'Everything comes with a price'
But what us Americans refuse to see,
is that the main thing we need in our life comes totally FREE
That's peace, respect, kindness and love.
It's FREE for the world and the value goes above
instead of taking ACTION and CREATING CHANGE
We rely on weak leaders, sit and complain
While those leaders just create followers
like mindless beings, we continue to flock to em'
Wake up! Know your worth!
You are more than just a check mark on a box
You are more than a number or color
You are an American. A Being. A Warrior.
You are part of the Human Race
and that's who you should be keeping in mind
when it's time to stand in line
Vote to benefit the future and honor those left behind.
Vote with those who sacrificed their life, in your heart.
Vote with peace in mind.
Vote for a leader that create leaders -unafraid to admit his shortcomings
Vote-not because of race, family pressure or political party
I give you one better: TAKE. ACTION.
Act up!
This world isn't going to get better, by sitting on it's ass
Change comes from making a move even before the votes are cast
Bottom line:
America isn't republican vs democrats or Us vs Them.
We all are Americans. Love one another. Respect each other. Help one another.
Our next 'Leader' can be our savior or demise
you decide
Will you continue to build walls?
Or finally open your eyes and your heart?

*PRISM is a clandestine mass electronic surveillance data mining program known to have been operated by the United States National Security Agency (NSA) since 2007. PRISM is a government code name for a data-collection effort known officially by the SIGAD US-984XN. The Prism program collects stored Internet communications based on demands made to Internet companies such as Google Inc. and Apple Inc. under Section 702 of the FISA Amendments Act of 2008 to turn over any data that match court-approved search terms.
*In optics, a prism is a transparent optical element with flat, polished surfaces that refract light. At least two of the flat surfaces must have an angle between them. The exact angles between the surfaces depend on the application.

.:FREE Dumb:.
Persuasions?
Those free, dumb, affiliations
I am neither of the liberal
nor of the conservative
and
I’ve been handed enough nonsense to know it
Sense? Nah, they don’t
know to show it
So all that demo-crazy ideology?
They can take it
& stow it
Multi-millions of people
oft divided into
two trumped-up ways of
thinking
Two sides of the same coin
Nah, can’t afford any
blinking
Causing
pain in the groin
each flip; many
sinking
at each other’s throat, then at the bar
they be winking
Lobbyists working “both sides”
Paying for their drinking
I’m saying
I’m not too sure at all
about they pile -o- ticks system
Where every other day
we’re Left\Right
in
the schism
Walking that walk
could be “us”
in
the prism*
While off-the-grid hermits
holding tight to
they wisdom
While machinations-at-hand
they’ll blame ‘em all on
Snow
- den
And this be almost funny
if it weren’t
an
omen

Republican Right
I am right, I am moral.
Republican that I be.
With a stick up my ass,
And brain fried by LSD.
Disenchanting America
With my oh so righteous ways.
Ban abortion, Nuke Iraq!!
And get rid of all the gays.
Civil Unions, what a crock!
Against our Constitution.
Guns and ammo, our 2nd Amendment,
Hollow point Uzi revolution.
Burn the flag and you get death,
Moral travesty against our nation.
Cut down the trees, pollute the streams
To get tax breaks, and standing ovation.
The right to vote, Democracy.
Why should it be left to you?
We as part of the moral upright class,
Spew right wing bull and fix elections too.
Right is right, plain as day.
The right is never wrong, indeed.
Re-elect me and I will show you how
To destroy this great nation with greed.
