Despite the country’s deep political polarization, most Americans share many core beliefs about what it means to be an American, according to a new poll.

The poll from The Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research found that about 9 in 10 U.S. adults say the right to vote, the right to equal protection under the law and the right to privacy are extremely important or very important to the United States’ identity as a nation. The survey also found that 84% feel the same way about the freedom of religion.

    Carlin was wrong. We absolutely DO have people like that but our 2 Party Political System works overtime to keep them off the ballot.

    You will rarely get to vote for one of those people not because they don’t exist but because the D & R Corporation’s don’t want you to.
