introduction of myself

Good Day everyone

My name is pragmatist, and this is my first time doing a blog. I might not be good at it, but i will sure try to be better.

I am from Maryland, a very Democratic state, or a so-called "blue" state. My political affiliation, as the title of this blog suggests, is independent. Not surprisingly, under the Democratic influence, I used to be a Democrat (not a registered one, since i am still 17). However, I have found that I agree with some Republican issues, and I realize the good thing of being an independent (looking at things objectively, and such). therefore, i sort of changed my political affilication.

I am generally liberal on economic issues. sometimes, i think i am very socialist. I am conversative on some (if not all) social issues. However, as my name suggests, i am pragmatic, so social issues are not my favorite.

I am a high school student, so I might not be knowledgeable as you are. However, i will try my best to learn as i blog. i hope you will see my blogs soon!! By the way, i will talk about all issues. Political issues are just my favorite. :)
