Exactly. Why the hell not?

I can't think of one single reason why not.

I think there's a board specifically designed for a question such as this

We've been discussing social policy, not white privelage. The fact that you think the CONCEPT of white privelage is related to ACTUAL social policy is pretty telling. Please name a piece of legislation that has been passed that addresses "white privelage."
Affirmative Action
Beat me to it.

Republicans are not champions of smaller government or lower taxes, despite what people claim on Fox News.
Why are leftists so obsessed with Fox?

A lot of liberal democrats believe in sharing the wealth. Tax the wealthy at a higher percentage than the unfortunate in order to "level the playing field." Essentially, this goes against everything this nation was founded upon. It can also be viewed as "penalizing" success. There should be both winners and losers in this world. You try your absolute hardest and give your best effort to be great, and win. You are rewarded for doing so, regardless of your background or socioeconomic status. You hear "miracle" stories all the time about people making it out of the hood or off the streets. It's not like God "chose" them to make it out and live a great life. They worked their fricking arse off to get out, and that's what this country is all about. Or should be about. Also, there has too be losers in this world. Show me a utopia where everyone is successful. The fear of failure should drive people to be their best. If you don't allow people to fail, you're failing them even worse.
Pretty much all of what this fella said.

I would tend to vote republican because they are the closest option to my beliefs, but they are far from conservative, small government proponents.
All politicians are corrupt and seek power and greed. All of them.

Can anyone give me a few reasons I should vote Democrat?
Because all the stars in Hollywood and people like the khardashians are. And since society pays more attention to the shite those people do, than whats actually going on... you should join them since you have the non ability to decide for yourself.

As someone who sees himself as an Independent because I don't trust either side.
I was a Democrat before the start of the campaigns for this year's elections.
I don't trust Hillary, and I sure as hell don't trust Trump.
FWIW, I've trusted Obama less and less by the year.
I don't know who I'm gonna vote for.

I'm not a "leftist"; however, to answer the crux of your question:
I'm not obsessed. Fox News is simply the single largest gathering of inaccurate right-leaning news, much as MSNBC is for left-leaning news.

Honestly I don't expect or want everyone to agree with me. People are going to have differing values and beliefs. It's part of the wonderful give and take of a free society.
I find it annoying when some Joe Blow from Nowhere, USA who gets his information from watching TV acts like he has all the answers. And it's so black and white to them. It's crazy how so many people, on both sides, are unwilling to challenge their own beliefs.

I feel you, man. I'm a registered democrat but I have no intentions on voting for Hillary. And I sure as shite won't be voting for Trump. I'd vote for Stein or Johnson over either of them.

Do you watch Fox? I sure as hell don't. I'm thinking lefties watch it more than righties.

There is nothing wrong with being liberal, or a Democrat. Most of these people are sane. Liberals have bleeding hearts and act irrationally sometimes but with good intentions.
Progressives are the scum of the earth.

I remember seeing an article that 94% of the viewers identified as Republicans.

I'm not turning Democrat or changing my opinions. I said that due to me not knowing why anyone would vote Democrat, and was trying to see their side of the story.

Why do you say that? That's a broad statement
