TX GOVT Writing Assignment 2 
Q/A:
1. For the 2010 Texas state political party platforms, do you support the Republican or Democratic platform on the issue of abortion?
In this issue, I support the Republican Party, although in my opinion, there are some very deep issues with this. I’ll explain myself. I am a firm believer that no one has the right to take a life but God. Some people claim that until the child is born it is not a live person but I will have to disagree. As long as there’s a heart beating there’s life, weather is has been delivered to this world or not. I too believe that an unborn child has the individual fundamental right to life. And I support a constitutional amendment to ban abortion. But I think there’s a very complicated side of this whole deal. That is the victims that become pregnant due to rape. A pregnancy is a very beautiful thing and mothers connect to their child from the point they first know they’re expecting and having to keep a child from an unwanted person due to such event is something that needs to be thought upon. This is a very complicated that I wouldn’t like to be a part of resolving it. Either way you will be right and wrong. With that being said, I still support the Republican Party.
2. For the 2010 Texas state political party platforms, do you support the Republican or Democratic platform on the issue of homosexual marriage?
This is a tricky issue. I believe on equal opportunity for all, regardless. But this humanitarian belief crosses lines with my religious beliefs. I think everybody will have to explain themselves to God and his stipulations so I am confident enough to say that even homosexuals can and will have a chance to have God’s forgiveness. Now, will I rather raise my children in a place where this behavior is close to, or not existent? I would. I would definitely support the Republican Party. Not only because of my religious beliefs, but because this is greater than just allowing homosexuals to get married. This is about civil rights.
