Political Parties

     Out of the political parties to choose from this day in age, I would classify myself with the Independent party. I say this because my views and opinions can cross over into those of Republicans and Democrats, while still disagreeing with some of their views as well. I like the fast of being part of the Independent party because I can take into consideration all aspects of the parties and decide for myself what I think is the best for our country. There are, of course, parts that I may not disagree with, but I have never met an individual that agrees wholly with their political party.

     I think that if American politics would have started out without political parties it would have survived for awhile. Although, I believe that the formation of political parties was inevitable. Our country is all about freedom and individuality. I believe in a lot of aspects, political parties give the Americans the individuality they crave for. The world is so diverse today, I am not so sure that our political system would be able to survive. It is also a means of easy identification.

     Out of the lesser known political parties, I chose to research the Modern Whig party. I could identify myself with this one the most. Like the Independent party, that I classify myself as, the Modern Whig party is also for the voters who agree with some views of the Republican party and some views of the Democratic party. I can identify myself with this because it is very similar to the Independent party.
