oh no, not repulican.
I just like to throw out random points of view every once in a while. It is good to keep perspective on what you believe in, and be able to see all (or atleast as many) sides of an issue.

fair enough, MP. fair enough.

LOL, what does it matter if MP is republican or democrat or a non-US-Citizen and therefore the definition of Democrat and Republican are not the same as yours?
those questions just show facts of history and how if you lived in that time, you may have made the same mistakes that the parents of your parents made.
I personally, for example, y lean to republicanism I guess but I would’ve recommended an abortion… it just goes to show..
well, if you read all the way to here, thank you for giving my mini rant a chance.
=P
hope it wasn’t a waste of time

Not a waste at all. I think you are right on the money. The facts of history are slanted, but they are slanted to get a reaction, not push a point of view. I fully support everyone’s right to believe whatever they want, as long as they are willing talk about it, and really listen and internalize others points of view.

Beethoven was the 3rd child and so on…
