That is not a buzzword. That is prophecy.

I am trying to see things in an unbiased sense, which is why I asked those questions.

If you want to be unbiased, maybe try getting away from "prophecy".

In order for me to fully explain, I would have to go to topics that aren't political, so I'll just give the basic idea.
I firmly believe that the family is a fundamental unit in society. A common family is one with a man and a woman legally bonded in matrimony, that respect and preserve their marital vows with complete fidelity, with the want to have children (and eventually, hopefully, do), and the parents teach their children. Both parents are to help one another as equal partners as well. Disability, death, or other circumstances may necessitate individual adaptation.

I search for responsible citizens and officers of government everywhere (and hopefuly they are some) that promote those measures designed to maintain and strengthen the family as the fundamental unit of society.

A lot of these "issues" have existed forever. 
Tons of presidents have had affairs. Thomas Jefferson had affairs with his slaves. JFK was known for having several affairs, including one with Marilyn Monroe. 


The issue isn't that any of these things have gotten worse, the issue is that people today have less support.

There's more acceptance for LGBT groups, but LGBT people are still frequently disowned or bullied by friends and family, in some cases are outright murdered. 

More people are abandoning abusive marriages and infidelity in marriages in favor of more positive views. That's generally a good thing, but it also means there's frequently fewer support mechanisms for people. 

There's also increasing "individualism", where people are doing things that benefit themselves at the cost of others.

So why do people need to be in a party?

They don't, but America is built on having two divisive parties due to it's winner take all approach, and lack of ranked choice voting.
