If you are a member of a political party and there is evidence of widespread corruption, fraud and conspiracy would you continue?

to contribute, continue to support the party with your vote, and/or become a part of covering up crimes committed within the party?

    I already did.

    In December 2000, George W. Bush, Ted Olson, William Rehnquist, Sandra Day O'Connor, Antonin Scalia, Anthony Kennedy, and Clarence Thomas engaged in a conspiracy to render a fraudulent interpretation of the Constitution and precedent in order to corrupt the system of recounting ballots. Because of that event, I not only stopped supporting the GOP, I just plain stopped voting period.

    Voter no more.

    I find it hard to follow any political party. Saying that is a historical thought in two major parties, and minors. All are mud slingers and to discredit any candidate seems the norm. Sadly in a nation now of 300 million, not all of voting age of course, many of voting age do not vote, which in effect elects whomever is voted in, and another confusion is the electoral college.

    That is why I am a registered Independent right now. I used to be a Democrat when I was young, then I began to learn more about the world as I grew up and became a Republican. I am now so disgusted with BOTH parties that I decided to stop belonging to either.

    I have removed my support from all Party Politics and support only candidates that have character, standards and who see the flaws in acting like an Elitist Despot.

    I support candidates that follow the Constitution, not Power brokers.

    Not necessarily, do you understand that sometimes you have to work with the "bad guys" or people you disagree with "for your own personal interest".... as it MAY be better than the alternative? IE....... USSR in WW11. Iraq/Saddam in the 80s!

    Yes because I've been around long enough to know there has never been a political party anywhere at any time that did not have elements of corruption in it.

    Your link talks only about Democratic corruption, while I could match you item for item an identical site for Republicans.

    Partisanism doesn't change facts.
