Foolish words my dad votes republican and all his three children vote democrat or green party. Not everybody is a follower.

You're right not everyone is a follower, but the majority is, why do you think every state is listed as democratic or republican? That's because the majority vote the same as everyone else while you may get a few people like you and myself whom aren't brainwashed.

It is hard to say how many people follow the same political views as their parents, but I will admidt there is probably a lot. I just think that is it was compleatly true political views would never change if belief systems were passed on almost all the time. Yes, amnd your point is certainly valid that regional continuity in political power in most states does probably reflect that children often form the same beliefs as their parents.

It bothers me very much that the general public is so blind and well stupid really.
