Help, need education
| Fri, 09-03-2004 - 4:03am |
Can anyone give me a link to a Democrat primer? Renee kindly provided one for Republicanism, and I would like to see exactly what the Democrats are all about.
In case anyone missed the flag by my name, I'm a Brit and am just trying to figure out the different 'camps'.
Thank you

I'm probably really annoying everyone with this now, but I'd still like to see a very basic schoolage type page laying out the foundation of Democrat politics
:o)
The problem is that the American political system has evolved so much over the years .... the Democratic Party no longer stands for what it did 100 or even 15 years ago. What's more, you will find different factions within both parties (Republican and Democrat) that stand for different things. Many Democrats (and, today, the party direction in general) are more liberal or left-leaning; others are more moderate or centrist. So, it's tough to pin down one source that defines in itself what the Democratic Party stands for. Just like, as Renee pointed out to you yesterday, not all Republicans are religious conservatives; many do not even believe in God.
I know this isn't much help, but thought it was important to point out!

Has anyone else read the book yet?
