ahhh so if i was living on the Right side of the united states, and was say a demrocrat what that be considered weird or looked down upon, or doesnt matter what side you live on and who you vote for. So im guessing one of theparties are more so for the people or more so for the wealthy, or is one party more based on race for exaple most demrocrats are white or black or republicans are white or black.

@SUKKES Well, I'd say the parties are quite diverse since they both have over 50 million registered members. Historically, the Democratic party has been more popular with minorities and urban residents. Democrats have strong membership in the New England states, and to a lesser extent, the Midwestern states. Republicans have a reputation of being more religious and patriotic. They have strong support in the Southern states and in rural areas.

Being an Australian and having labor and the liberal party as our main parties, what is a republican or a demrocrat? what do they stand for ??

[maxpowers518]

@SUKKES In general, Democrats are the liberal party (left) and Republicans are the conservative party (right).

@cporgie That's an excellent example of modern day political parties on both sides. This is a nice message showing that it didn't used to be that way; Especially in the 1950s and 1960s.

[cporgie]

Neither party stands for anything except staying in power. Both support corporate America at the expense of the populace. Both claim the moral high ground when it's convenient and both are committed to waving the American flag as long as they don't have to serve in the military or pay taxes.

@SUKKES Both Liberal and Labor are like Republicans.
