I would think that the type of people that support you would matter. Again the moment that I found Nazis and white supremacists supported my ideals and beliefs, I would need to re-evaluate things. Unless of course they had radically changed their ideals and beliefs, which I doubt they would.
I like to think that I think independently as well, but the fact is that we all seek validation and support for our ideals and beliefs. It's why people engage in politics to begin with. Hell it's leadership 101. If you're seeking a leadership position you need people that support your position.
