On what issues do you buck the standard party line.

[A18]

Oppose Abortion
Oppose Gay Marrage
Support school vouchers
Support Faith base chairty
Support the Patroit Act

can't think of anymore...

I thought you were insisting you weren't a Democrat, like, a day ago.

[useful idiot]

I'm pro-life, support free trade, pro-gun, support the patriot act, supported the war(on humanitarian grounds), and I believe in small government, privatisation, and de-regulation.

So why are you a Democrat, exactly?

[Joe Republic]

All of them.

Gay marriage, the death penalty, affirmative action, I'm pro-union, anti-religious right, anti-censorship, and I support the legalisation of pot and prostitution. I'm also in favour of pretty much open border immigration

[Cubby]

I am against Affirmative Action (The Democrats aren't)

I am very pro-choice, but I wouldn't have a problem if Roe v. Wade was overturned, and was decided at the state level.

I have mixed feelings about free trade, I'm not sure where the party stands on this. Clinton was for it but not everyone is.

[NDN]

* Oppose subsidies generally
* Oppose increasing minimum wage

It depends on how you define multi-culturalism.

[Undisguised Sockpuppet]

I define it as politically correct bitching in the educational system, tolerating Islam(if islamic nations won't tolerate christians or jews why should we tolerate muslims?), refusal to keep secure borders in the nameo f PC, allowing in refugees, refusal to assimilate immigrants and the feds giving money in the name of PC to groups like black nationalists, aztlanistas and AIM.

Okay, oppose then.

[Undisguised Sockpuppet]

Ok then.

[Tetro Kornbluth]

What Party? What line?

[NDN]

To anyone that caught my post before it was edit: Didn't notice the abortion part when I copy-pasted. Ignore that.

[NDN]

Abortion
Gay Marriage
States' Rights
Military Spending
Religion in Schools
+more I can't remember...

Looks like you're on the right track.

[Speed of Sound]

Oh geez........not many, Im sure.


Gun rights
Immigration



the only reason for these two is only because I seem to be unable of forming an opinion on either one.

[Kaine for Senate '18]

I’m against affirmative action, I’m a moderate on gun control, and to some extent I’m more pro-life than most Democrats (although I’m still a firm believer in abortion rights).

[Frodo]

The better question is on what issues do I not buck the party line....

I will answer this one regardless, though:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------

Farm Subsidies -favor gradual elimination, beginning with corporate conglomerates.

Social Security -favor introducing private retirement accounts

Medicare -favor health savings accounts and the Medicare Advantage Section C that allows senior citizens to choose among various private plans for their health coverage.

Welfare -support welfare reform law passed in 1996

Medicaid -support allocation to states in the form of block grants in the same manner accorded to welfare subsidies.

Education -support school vouchers, charter schools, de-unionizing the teaching profession, and Bush's No Child Left Behind law (though with full -as opposed to partial- funding).

Environment -support expanding nuclear power.  On all other matters related to this issue, I am with the Democrats, though. 

Abortion -favor overturning Roe vs. Wade, and leaving it to the states
 
Gay Marriage -favor letting the states decide the issue as they see fit

Affirmative Action -oppose race and/or ethnic-based preferences in hiring and college admissions

Immigration -will only support amnesty once the border is secured.

Gun-Rights -oppose most forms of gun control except for background checks.  Favor the individualist interpretation of the Second Amendment.

[7,052,770]

gay marriage - support
amnesty for "illegal" aliens - support
single-payer universal health care - support

[Lief 🗽]

There are a lot of issues where I don't believe my party goes far enough (gay marriage, universal healthcare, a variety of economic issues), but I don't think I seriously buck the party line on anything. I don't care about gun control, I guess, and I think political correctness and nanny statism are stupid.

[Filuwaúrdjan]

Until very recently, I'd have said gambling but the "standard party line" hath moved greatly in my direction of late.

[Jaggerjack]

Oppose affirmative action

[J. J.]

I'm going add to my list:

Affirmative action.  I believe that under a certain set of circumstances, where a specific entity has a past history of discrimination, it is acceptable to remedy that by affirmative action programs.  It's very qualified support.

[Flying Dog]

Abortion-Think it should be illegal except for Rape, Incest, or Mother life danger.
Vouchers-Support
Gun Control-No need for more.
I support prayer in school.
Affirmative Action- Totally Against.
Gay Marriage- Against. (For Civil Unions though)
Immingration.

[David S]

The only issue I don't agree with the LP on is free trade. I favor tariffs on imports and reducing taxes correspondingly on domestic suppliers. My feeling is; why should we tax the shorts off our own manufacturers and give the imports a free ride. That's like reverse protectionism.
