“Have you noticed how the Republicans and Democrats try to copy each other at their conventions. Like at the Democratic convention John Kerry's daughter told a story about how he once gave CPR to her hamster. At the Republican convention the Bush girls are going to tell a story about how when their hamster was bad, their dad built them a little electric chair.” TryingLittlesStoriesGirlDadRepublicanDaughterBuiltDemocraticDemocratChairsCopiesConventionsElectricJohn KerryHamstersElectric ChairCpr Author:Jay Leno
“I'm not a typical Republican. I am a Republican, I wear the Republican jersey, I've been a Republican my whole life. My dad was a Republican, which is interesting because he was in a union early on. The Republican party was very strong in the area that I grew up in. So I'm a loyalist.” WholeStrongInterestingPartyGrewDadRepublicanGrew UpAreasUnionsMy DadWhole LifeVery StrongTypicalRepublican PartyJerseyLoyalists Author:Anthony Scaramucci
“My dad was an immigrant kid and a Democrat and a Jew, and we didn't know any Republicans in our group. So I grew up Democratic. My dad was a labor lawyer - a very hardworking guy, a one-horse labor lawyer - and then I went to hippie college and lived in the bubble.” KnowsKidsGuyGroupsCollegeGrewDadRepublicanGrew UpLaborHorseDemocraticDemocratMy DadJewLawyerImmigrantsBubblesHippieHardworking Author:David Mamet
“When [my dad] was at the University of Michigan, my mom was a social-worker. As he rose, he voted for [Adlai] Stevenson initially. Then he voted for [Dwight] Eisenhower. Then he kept voting Republican until he voted for Barack Obama. So that's kind of amazing. But he was offered a cabinet post by Eisenhower in his second term. So he was moderate Republican. But if you asked him, he would've said, "I don't have any politics. I'm a business person." Mainstream, the American view, as he understood it.” IfsKindPersonsSaidSocialTermViewsMomDadRepublicanUnderstoodRoseWorkersUniversityMy DadMy MomBarackPostsVotingMainstreamModeratesCabinetsMichiganSocial WorkerBusiness PersonDwightDwight EisenhowerUniversity Of MichiganVoting Republican Author:Bill Ayers
