In reply to the discussion: Were your parents (or guardians) Democrats? [View all]luvs2sing
(2,220 posts)and we regularly discussed politics and current events when I was growing up, but my mother never voted for some reason, and I know my father voted for both parties depending on how much he agreed with the candidates views. He was also a firm believer in term limits. I think he always voted for Democrats for president, but locally it could go either way.
So I grew up on the 60s with parents who were in favor of civil rights, and womens rights, and against the war in Viet Nam..but their voting would not necessarily tell you that they were that liberal or that aware.
I will add that they were real anomalies in their families. Except for them, me, and one other cousin, the rest of the family is batshit crazy, Ive checked pictures from 1/6 for their faces Republican.
