Sentiment: POSITIVE
I ain't a Communist necessarily, but I been in the red all my life.
I still am a virulent anti-communist. It is a bad system, an immoral system, and one that takes away the rights of people and the rights of individuals. And everywhere it's gone, it's failed.

It was patriotism, not communism, that inspired me.
I joined the Communist Party because I felt I had to be in some organization.
