How did you come to your political beliefs/Party preference?
Well, it's all in the title. How did you come to your political beliefs? Is it something you learned/inherited from your family, learn from friends and environment, or was it personal experiences that influenced your political beliefs?
My family didn't really talk about politics much until I was a teenager, and I never gave it much thought until high school, but I am decidedly a proud, liberal Democrat with libertarian traits. I would say that I was mostly influenced by the world around me and how I was affected by those I interacted with as a young adult. My mother was a democrat and my father, a southern military man, went back and forth. He was hard to pin down, although I think he mostly leaned Democrat.
How about you?
