Are you a US Veteran, or is one of your parents a Vet?

Advertisements [?]

....and if one of your parents has served or maybe even fought in a war, is he or she by any chance a Democrat who's influenced you politically?

I'm not a veteran of the armed services myself, but my father enlisted and served 6 years in the Navy in WWII. He was captain of his own ship! Better than that, he's been a die-hard life-long Democrat always, and probably the biggest influence on me and the rest of my family being the liberal-minded Democrats we are.

Anyway, to all the DUers who have ever served (or to their parents who've served, whether they're Democrat or Republican), my hat's off to ya!
