Facts about the American Political Parties
The Republican Party.
To understand the Republican Party, you must know when and why The Party was formed in the first place. You can read about that here. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_the_United_States_Republican_Party
For a brief summery, the Republican Party began as a coalition of anti-slavery "Conscience Whigs" and Free Soil Democrats opposed to the Kansas-Nebraska Act, which would expand slavery into the territories. In other words, the Republican is and always has been the equal rights party.
The new Republican Party went well beyond the issue of slavery in the territories. It envisioned modernizing the United States — emphasizing giving free western land to farmers ("free soil") as opposed to letting slave owners buy up the best lands, expanded banking, more railroads, and factories. They vigorously argued that free-market labor was superior to slavery and the very foundation of civic virtue and true republicanism - this is the "Free Soil, Free Labor, Free Men" ideology.
With the Republican Party’s election of Abraham Lincoln in 1860, and its success in guiding the Union to victory and abolishing slavery, it came to dominate the national scene until 1932. The Republican Party was based on northern white Protestants, businessmen, professionals, factory workers, farmers, and African-Americans. It was pro-business, supporting banks, the gold standard, railroads, and tariffs to protect industrial workers and industry.
OK, enough about the Republican Party. They seem to be a disappearing minority in modern day America, so who and what is the Democratic Party?
The Democratic Party
The Democratic Party was the party of southern plantation owners, slavery and oppression. It is still the party of oppression. Only the tactics have changed. They like to refer to themselves as “liberal” but they are anything but.
Until the election of JFK, Democrats in Congress fought against, and prevented any meaningful civil rights reform. JFK was able to get enough democrats to join with the Republicans to get it done.
Most young people these days don’t know that, but if you look it up, you’ll see almost all republicans voted FOR the reform and the majority of democrats voted against it. At that time a lot of Democrats were still KKK members.
Then, during the late 1960s and 70s, the Democratic Party was literally attacked—and taken over by the leftist/progressive/socialist/communist movement. Since that hijacking real liberals have been shunted to the back benches of the Democratic Party and, for the most part, out the door.
The modern Democratic Party is, in fact, a solid Socialist/Marxist/Communist organ of the American political system. The title they often use—“Progressive”—is a word description that communists in America have used for many decades (nearly a hundred years now) to camouflage their real identity.
The Communist Party, USA, had tried for decades to adopt the words “liberal” and “liberalism” to cover their ideology but had been totally shut out with zero success. Thus, the “new” left was able to accomplish something their parent ideology—communism—had been unable to do.
Just a couple of the true liberals (Some refer to them as “centrist liberals”) were Henry “Scoop” Jackson and, yes, even Hubert Humphrey. The “true” liberals either went home in disgust, were relegated to the back benches, in humiliation, or moved to the Republican Party and became known as “Neocons” or neo-conservatives. Many are still active in national politics today.
Today’s modern Democratic Party is, in fact, a Socialist Party. Their ultimate intent is to fundamentally change America from a constitutional republic to a socialist dictatorship. And they are doing it, one little bit at a time. It is called “incrementalism.” They are using the term and name Liberalism and Liberal to cover their nefarious scheme to turn America into a communist worker’s paradise (otherwise known as a “dung heap!).
Socialist presidential candidate Norman Thomas once said: “The American people will never knowingly adopt socialism. But under the name of ‘liberalism,’ they will adopt every fragment of the socialist program, until one day America will be a socialist nation, without knowing how it happened.”
Today, America has a Socialist/Marxist/Communist President along with a Senate which is controlled by Socialist/Marxist/Communists. Even the US Supreme Court has been compromised by the “New” Left/Liberals/Socialists/Communists. One must agree the New Left has had rather a lot of success!
Just to be clear: When I refer to liberals today and “the Left” today, I am referring to the Socialists/Marxists/Communists who make up the modern Democratic Party and NOT the REAL LIBERALS especially those prior to 1970.
There will be little, if any, bipartisanship in the Congress between socialist/Marxist/communist on the left and freedom loving Americans on the right. To compromise with those who constitute the political left in America today is to compromise the freedom and liberty of every American. That cannot be allowed to happen.
In the meantime, I expect we will see more gridlock in Congress. It may not stop the left, but hopefully it will slow them down until we can bring in reinforcements in the election of 2014. (If this country still have elections by then) Unfortunately, in this election, almost 130 million Americans voted for fascism.

Much of the depression and shock resulting from the election
was the realization that, with the exception of the House, conservatives would
continue to live under a regime that favored its own ruling class—the unions,
environmental organizations, dependent minorities—in opposition to those who
have achieved success whether as small business owners, corporations,
professionals, or in the financial sector.
It has become perfectly clear that this President is a liar
and a man prepared to say or do anything to gain and keep power. This feeling goes way beyond the usual
suspicions the opposition has to any president.
