What is political ideology?

"An ideology is a set of ideas that constitute one's goals, expectations, and actions. An ideology can be thought of as a comprehensive vision, as a way of looking at things (compare worldview), as in several philosophical tendencies (see Political ideologies), or a set of ideas proposed by the dominant class of a society to all members of this society (a "received consciousness" or product of socialization). The main purpose behind an ideology is to offer either change in society, or adherence to a set of ideals where conformity already exists, through a normative thought process. Ideologies are systems of abstract thought applied to public matters and thus make this concept central to politics. Implicitly every political or economic tendency entails an ideology whether or not it is propounded as an explicit system of thought. It is how society sees things." Political ideology is thrown around and misused so much that it has lost most of it's meaning. In the US people use con vs lib for just about every issue. It is used as a 'us against them' attitude.

Believing something So Strongly, that Facts, Truth, History, Math, and Integrity play no PART in achieving your Dreams. The way it affects Politics, is that Professional, Permanent Politicians (like the 435 Representatives, 100 Senators and 1 President in Washington, DC) Don't actually BELIEVE in either of the Major Ideologies, they just USE them as Tools for their PERSONAL Ideology of "I am SO Smart, that I KNOW what is Better for the American Citizen than they themselves do." Do you really think that a SINGLE Multi-Millionaire, Ivy League, Senator, on a Personal and Private Level Give ONE Hoot in Heck about some 4th Generation, Poor, Ethnic Urban Dweller? Or some 6th Generation Appalachian Hillbilly? That the welfare of either of these groups is of their Main Concern and in Which EVERY Policy, Legislation and Regulation is based? NOT a CHANCE. They Adopt and Promote the Ideology of the "group" they Choose to Represent in order to Get Their Vote. THEY BOTH Court the Financial Sector to get the Funding to PERFORM the Step Above. This is EVIDENCED by the Fact that Mr. Obama, while have COMPLETE Control of Congress for 2 years, DID not pass a Single Bill to CORRECT the Unfairness in the Corporate Tax System. Not a Single Deduction, Loophole or Credit was Altered to EQUALIZE the System. Why is that you have got to ask yourself. Those 536 people have a SINGLE Ideology....To Command and Control us. Power is everything.
