Republicans and Democrats, in general, are very black and white in their views. Unfortunately, the majority of real people live in the gray area in between.
I am pro-guns, anti-censorship, anti-tax, pro-responsible government spending, pro-socialized healthcare, pro-gay marriage, pro-death penalty, pro-legalized prostitution, pro-decriminalized marijuana laws, anti-abortion (in most cases), etc... Half of those are republican platforms, the other half democratic. Since we're stuck with just 2 black and white parties, I will probably never see a candidate that I agree with on everything and I'm sure I'm not the only one. It's highly discouraging.
