Seriously.
It seems that almost from birth, some of us are Conservatives, while others are Liberals. Why is that?
In my case, my conservatism seems almost innate. I remember arguing against liberals in every government class I ever had. I never had an epiphany.

Personally, I am a very compassionate, caring individual. I give time and treasure to charities. I do not kick dogs and cats--well not ALL cats. I love my children and my grandchildren. I assist neighbors. I even share my beer. I hate no one--but I may disagree with many.

I do not fit the stereotype of a cold, money-grubbing conservative. I support freedom of speech for everyone--especially those with whom I disagree. I even acknowledge that freedom of religion also applies to people with different beliefs than mine--not that they are "right" in their beliefs, but they have the right to freely practice the religion ( or non-religion) of their choice.

The tendency for everyone is to jump to a conclusion and then pick out the facts that seem to support that conclusion. But has anyone researched into exactly why and how we each develop our particular [political stance?
