text: can a 14 yr old decide her political party if she knows enough information? read the rest:? i'm 14 and decided to become a democrat. i have read about democrats vs republicans, their different political views, different people from each party, and how each party uses propaganda. i have used peoples' knowledge to inform myself about these different parties, and i listen to debates, and i have come to the conclusion, it's not because the democrats have taken over the senate, but because i believe in what they say. i have discussed this, and adults say i don't know anything about politics, and i listen to too much greenday. greenday is expressing their thoughts, and using propaganda through their songs. i'm not a democrat because one of my favorite bands are, but they have helped me understand, through holiday and american idiot. i have a mature way of thinking compared to most people my age, and they think nothing about these things, i know whats going on. they don't. another question...why do people not like democrats that much? take it from be kid, you aren't old enough!
