Reagan?
The NRA usually does not endorse a candidate until after the nominations at the conventions. The NRA has yet to endorse a particular candidate in the 2008 Presidential election. Source: http://hotlineblog.nationaljournal.com/archives/2007/12/nra_wants_a_via.html
That is a good question and it would be interesting to know. Anyone can join the NRA. There are an estimated 4.3 million members. The NRA has supported both Democratic candidates and Republican candidates. The NRA either doesn't know; because they haven't asked, or the are not telling because there are no published stats on this question or other facets of NRA membership.
Yes, the NRA has endorsed Democrats over Republicans in the past. However, it is relatively uncommon for the NRA to endorse Democrats, as the organization generally aligns more with conservative views on gun control. Endorsements by the NRA are typically given to candidates who strongly support Second Amendment rights and advocate for less restrictive gun legislation.
The NRA primarily uses its considerable financial resources for campaign contributions to support pro-gun candidates in elections. However, it also engages in grassroots lobbying efforts through its members and activists, mobilizing them to contact elected officials and advocate for their positions on gun rights issues. Both strategies are utilized, but campaign contributions are a major focus for the NRA.
Nugent has always been on the side of the Conservative. He is a major supporter of the NRA and a supporter of pro-gun organizations. Do you really have to ask?
The NRA is a very strong lobby in Washington D.C.
In 2008, The NRA gave $662,982 to Republicans in the House and $156,150 in the Senate which comes to a total of $819,132. The NRA also spent $4,129,788 for the Republican party via independent expenditures (ads made without the approval or knowledge of the candidate) and communication costs (internal political messages aimed at members of an organization or union or possibly even company executives).
The NRA is a highly conservative and republican group. The NRA is somewhat libertarian in it's ideology, and is a non-partisan organization that is committed to preserving the Bill of Rights of the U.S.Constitution, with a special emphasis on amendment number two, but is also interested in other civil rights when they intersect with the civil rights to keep arms, and to bear arms. The First and Fourth and Fourteenth amendments frequently come up at the present time while advocating for the Second. It is true that there are more Republican than Democrat candidates supported by the NRA at present, but that is simply due to the fact that the NRA finds more Republicans than Democrats interested in this particular civil rights issue. The NRA is more libertarian than conservative, and also has a policy of supporting friendly incumbents against their challengers regardless of the political party affiliation of either.
Principally, the NRA supports gun manufacturers.
