KP, I guess you added some editing to your post. Yes, there is a big difference between a REPUBLIC and a DEMOCRACY. Vote your pro-life candidate all you want. It will make no difference as in a REPUBLIC the individual is responsible for their own decisions. You really want to vote for the DEMOCRACY style government, because then if a MAJORITY of the population outlaws aboration you can get your way. Do you really want government in all aspects of your life. Also in a DEMOCRACY the government or a majority of the people control everything even if it goes against any thing you can believe in, such as LIFE, LIBERTY and the PURSUIT OF HAPPINESS.

Just between you and me, I will work and vote for those that will follow the United States Consitution and keep this country a REPRESENTATIVE REPUBLIC.
