*relaxed posture* Hi!  Do you follow politics?
gpt
Not really, but I know the basics around the left and the right.
human
I think Id put myself in the same boat  It just gets too negative for me sometimes.
gpt
I do prefer the Democrats over the Republicans though, especially because of the US's current president. 
human
You are not alone there.  I tend to bleed a bit blue.
gpt
Did you know the consistent use of blue and red colors only stared in 2000.
human
I was surprised by that.  I had thought they had been around forever!
gpt
*hands at sides* Ya nowadays presidents believe so strongly in their beliefs. There hasn't been a US president that wasn't a republican or a democrat since 1853.
human
That just shows you the two party system has been around so long, it is going to be even harder to break!
gpt
I agree, the democratic party has been around since 1828, I don't know when the republican party formed though.
human
I am not quite sure either.  I do know 15% of the tea party movement identified as democrats
gpt
That's quite low! Are the presidents now typically republican or democratic? 
human
It seems that it has alternated every 8 years for as long as I can remember paying attention to who the president was, 
gpt
Speaking of American presidents, Did you know the wealthiest president in history was jfk? 
human
Even more so than Trump?  Wow!
gpt
Ya, in fact. Washington and jefferson were the second and third most rich. Inflation must be crazy since these are all presidents from a long time ago.
human
*hands at sides* Very true, I think a lot of it was in terms of land ownership too.
gpt
They didn't use the land well did they? The president's guest house is larger than the white house!
human
I can only assume that it is the place where they can house many dignitaries, and other heads of state at the same time, so it might be like a mini resort?  But I'm really not sure.  Ill have to look into that.
gpt
*calm eyes* That's a great idea. There are a lot of weird facts about past presidents online.
human
One weird fact about our government is that Elmo has testified before congress.
gpt
Ya that sounds weird and funny! Anyways, it was good chatting with you, have a nice day.
