That is a question I am always happy to answer. The short answer is that Democrats have the better sense of community and tolerance, values I hold dear. Following, in very condensed form, are several areas of political concern, and why I agree with what I call the New Democratic position on each. These are, of course, my personal opinions. Regular people, people who work for a living, are who keep our economy strong.
Regular people spend their money, and economic exchange is what drives the economy.
Rich people invest most of their money, which is also important. Democrats understand that the key to economic prosperity is for everyone to prosper, not just the rich. Regular people prosper when there are lots of good jobs available and every job pays a fair minimum wage. I don't believe very many people are born criminals. Circumstances make most criminals.
