Whats the difference between democratic and republican??


Question: i think i know what it means but im just not sure lol
Answers: It's a simple question with a complex answer. Basically the Democrats believe in a huge government that will make all our decisions for us and take care of us. They don't care if their ideology will work in the real word. Socialized medicine for example. In all countries that provide free medical care you get the same results. A massive bureaucracy that requires a large percentage of that countries money and delivers a much lower standard of health care.
Republicans believe the marketplace will provide it's own solution. And it does. America has the best medical care in the world because people will not pay out of their own pockets for bad medical care.
The war on terrorism. The Dems say we should stop fighting and negotiate with the terrorist. Give them what they want so they will leave us alone. The Reps say stand up and fight to protect our country and its citizens.
Immigration. The Dems say open the borders and let them all in. The Reps say close our borders and only accept the number of legal immigrants we can afford to take in.
In every issue the Dems have an ideology that sounds good but will lead to problems for America. The Reps offer a real world solution.
When applied to modern political parties the two terms are sadly similar.
In this election nothing....is this all we have to pick a President from....man we are going to hell in a shoe box.....
Well, while typically democrats lean to the left, the liberal side, and the republicans lean to the right, the conservative side, there is some intermingling between. In other words, it's not all clear cut. Some democrats are conservative, mainly older people who have been that all their lives, while some republicans may be a bit liberal compared to their compatriots.
Republicans: the party that knows nothing.
Democrats: the party that does nothing.

Also heard it said that Democrats have NO ideas, whereas Republicans have BAD ideas. Either way...
Republicrats? They are seperate? $%#@ed if I knew.
republicans have morals, values and comman sense.
democrats want everything for free
Democrats believe in the rights of the group and typically believe that the government should provide social entitlements for the lower and middle classes.
Republicans favor rights for the individual including the right to fail and a more personal responsibility aspect when it comes to government entitlements.
republicans see a homicide case on the side of the road and decry the assailant and swear vengeance and justice.

dems see a homicide on the side of the road and are equally horrified, and swear to find the person who may or may not be responsible for the death, because they need to help them.
