bt i claim Boomer status because I was conceived when I was because my father was discharged earlt for medical reasons.

I have never voted for a Republican for anyting in my life ans was not about to start now.

Back in the day my Mom and Dad could register, one as Republican, one as Democrat, in order to get information from both sides because back in the day it contained unfornation,, not merely lies and propaganda. That would not be possible today. My Dad passed away when I was 4 days old, so I can't discuss his voting record. But Mom always voted for Democrats.
