I don't believe that there are these political "in-betweeners" who stand right on the line in the proverbial sand. You may be more conservative on some issuesa, and more "Liberal" on others, but that doesn't make you a moderate, it just makes you an individual.
Yes but that is why it must be based upon the Constitution and logic. If you solely base it upon belief, without any basis, then it could be as destructive, as it might have been constructive. Take the universal, single-payer health care system for instance. Is it the job for the federal government to institute such things? Will it benefit the people more than harm them? Does it remove the rights of the American people? These are just a few of the questions someone should ask themself before determining what is right for the American people.
