Why thank you
I'm a former Republican who became an Independent a few decades ago.
I simply fiound that my opinions do not match those of the two primary parties. I find I'm hold positions that are roughly 60% Republican and 40% Democratic.
I certainly disliked both Presidential candidates last time, I voted for Ralph Nader. Why Ralph? Firstly he'd make a lousy president, I knew he'd lose but I wanted to vote AGAINST the other two.
Independence is a fine thing
