Difference Between Democrat And Republican

Citizens registered as an Independent, Democrat or Republican.

Democrats and Republicans are the two main parties in the United States. While recently moderate and alternative parties have become more prominent, Democrats and Republicans remain the two historically largest parties, which hold the majority of the seats in the Senate and in the House of Representatives. Democrats and Republicans have opposing views and positions on several key issues, including economic, political, military and social matters.

History and symbols
The Democratic Party is associated to the famous Democratic donkey, which first appeared during Democrat Andrew Jackson’s 1828 presidential campaign. After his opponent called him a donkey, Jackson decided to use the image of the animal – which he believed to be smart, brave and strong-willed – on his campaign posters. The symbol became famous when the cartoonist Thomas Nast used the donkey in newspaper cartoons1. The Democratic Party started in 1828 as anti-Federal faction and grew to become one of the leading political forces of the United States.




The Republican Party – also known as GOP, Grand Old Party – is associated to the Republican elephant. In 1874, Thomas Nast introduced the elephant in one of his cartoons and, with time, the strong and dignified animal became the symbol of the Republican Party2. The GOP started in 1854 – few years later than its Democratic counterpart – to stop slavery, which was viewed as unconstitutional.



Democrat vs Republican
The main difference between the two parties is, indeed, their political orientation. The Democratic Party is left-leaning, liberal and usually associated with progressiveness and equality. The Republican Party, instead, is right-leaning, traditional and associated with equity and economic freedom and with the ideal of “survival of the fittest”.

Given their different origins and opposing political orientations, the two parties clash on a number of fundamental issues4:

Taxes
Republicans believe that both rich and poor should pay the same share of taxes (and possibly receive tax cuts). Even if large tax cuts may lead to a decrease in the revenue collected by the government, Republicans believe that, after tax reductions, rich people and entrepreneurs would be more likely to invest and create jobs – thus initiating a trickledown effect that would eventually benefit the entire society. Republicans also oppose raising minimum wages as such increase could hurt small businesses; and

Democrats believe in raising taxes for the upper class and lowering taxes for the lower and middle class to allow the government to boost spending for social programs for lower class



Gun laws
Republicans oppose gun control laws and believe that one should be able to obtain ammunitions with no registration. Republicans also strongly support the right of self-defense; and

Democrats are in favor of an increase in arm control but recognize that the Second Amendment is an important part of the American tradition and that the right to use firearms should be preserved. Democrats advocate for the reinstatement of the assault weapons ban and believe that the government should make the background check system stronger.



Voter ID laws
Republicans are requesting photo identification for voting: they believe that such measure would prevent cases of election fraud; and

Democrats believe that everyone has the right to vote and oppose photo identification, as they believe it may be discriminatory.



Abortion
Republicans, largely influenced by religion and tradition, believe that the government should restrict abortion. In fact, Republicans think that an unborn child has the fundamental right to live which cannot be taken away; and

Democrats support Roe vs Wade and believe that a woman should have the right to make her own decisions regarding her pregnancy and that the government has no right to get involved with any woman’s pregnancy. Instead of eliminating abortion, Democrats want to reduce the number of unintended pregnancies by enhancing the level of sex education in all schools. An increased awareness would also reduce the number of cases of sexually transmitted diseases.



Same-sex marriages
Republicans do not agree with same-sex marriages and believe that a marriage should be between a man and woman only. Republicans also think that gay couples should not be able to adopt children; and

Democrats oppose same-sex discrimination at Federal state level and believe that same sex couples should have the same rights as heterosexual couples, including the right to adopt a child.

Limits of the government
Republicans believe that a smaller government is better. According to the Republican view, the government should have less responsibilities and should not interfere in the economic sphere; and

Democrats believe that the government should have a strong role in helping and supporting Americans. The intervention of the government in the public sphere includes the creation of regulation for businesses and for the health care system.



Immigration
Republicans are in favor of strong border controls and push for limits to immigration – in particular from certain countries. Republicans believe that a tighter control on immigration would benefit American workers and would reduce the risks related to terrorist attacks. The Muslim Ban proposed by President Trump few days after the beginning of his mandate is a clear example of the stance of the Republican Party with regard to immigration and integration5; and

Democrats are generally more favorable to open immigration policies. Indeed, they do not believe that there should be no control and that anyone should be allowed in the country and granted asylum; but they believe that the process to request asylum should be quicker and that mass deportation is not the solution to all problems related to terrorism and unemployment.




Death penalty
Traditionally, Republicans are in favor of death penalty and believe it is a just punishment for certain crimes; and

Most Democrats are against death penalty and believe that capital punishment should be commuted into life sentences.




Health care
Republicans support private health care systems and believe that the regulation of the national health care system should not be entirely in the hands of the government; and

!
Democrats support public universal health care and believe that the government should intervene to assist Americans who struggle to cover their health care expenses.

Individual vs collective rights
Republicans believe in individual rights and in the “survival of the fittest”; and

Democrats believe in collective rights over individual rights.

Furthermore, while Republicans traditionally advocate for a “small government” that should not interfere in the private sphere, they do support some “big government” stances when they insist on the need of imposing government regulations on abortion. In the same way, while Democrats advocate for a “big government” that should intervene in economic and social decisions, they support free choice and believe that the government should have no say on abortion and should not interfere with a woman’s pregnancy.




Summary

The Democratic and the Republican Party are the two main forces that have shaped the political scenario of the United States since the 19th century. It is interesting to note that in the past few decades, Democrat and Republican Presidents have been constantly alternating. Such tendency shows that the American society remains deeply divided over key issues.

The traditional, right-leaning Republican Party opposes the liberal, left-leaning Democratic Party on economic, social and political matters:




Republicans believe in strong border controls, in tax cuts, in the use of firearms and in death penalty. They are against abortion, same-sex marriages and support private health care systems; and

Democrats support open immigration policies, believe that rich people should pay higher taxes, advocate for more regulations in the use of firearms and oppose death penalty. They are in favor of free choice, support same-sex marriage and adoption rights for same-sex couples and believe that the government should intervene in economic and social matters, including health care.

That is an acceptance that Major General M Buhari led APC has failed.

SmartPolician:
Jonathan will lose the presidential election if he decides to join the APC and get their ticket in 2023. Please he has done his bit. Nigeria doesn't need weaklings; we need a courageous, intelligent, public-spirited and younger person to try.

That is what you people said and were deceived with Mr INTEGRITY BUHARI

Oya start fighting political idiots from all parts of the country.

Soso990240:
That is what you people said and were deceived with Mr INTEGRITY BUHARI

Integrity and Nigerian politics cannot be in the same sentence. Somehow, we need to keep experimenting to get it right.

However, if we are able to get someone with those qualities I mentioned, we are probably on the verge of having a prosperous country.

I reject it for Jonathan in Jesus name, bunch of failures and sadists in APC

Tinubuadvocate:
What is doing this one APC as a political party has rules and regulations that member must follow as long as Jonathan going to comply with the law of APC and forget old behavior he is welcome. Continue sign your yellow teeth there.

Mr Dispensable pawn, I challenge you to mention APC rules and regulations.

Suddenly, the man you called ineffectual baboon is now welcome. So, what happens to all the rubbish PDP 16 years rules you guys have been using to deceive yourselves?

Then when are you getting it ? You people are not even tired of this your Israelites journey called nijiriya ! . Continue

Shows the level of apc moral decay..after all the blame game and calling jonathan names like Jonathan,drunkard and sort by their online miscreant,u still want him to join ur party?haha oti pari

Nigeria politics is a theatre of absurd. It is a pure crassness meddling in it.

He is too refined to make such a move.

Maxymilliano:

APC has no shame !
How can you celebrate same person you once referred to as drunkard, kindergarten President, clueless etc

I hope GEJ is wise enough to discern when he is being played for a fool

He won't be a fool, judging from how things are done in Nigeria. If you really want to be successful in this country you must take up their madness and begin acting like the majority. That's the only way you do be successful.

Let him play by their card. Take their stupid ticket, win, then destroy APC and Japa to another party. That's how stupid they play politics here.

mrkings84:
NO SMOKE WITHOUT FIRE.
ALL POLITICIANS ARE SAME
SO I WON'T BE SURPRISED IF HE CROSS CARPET!

BUT WHAT FOR SHOULD HE?

To have his people at the center thereby continue being political relevance.

Shameless people. Na only GEJ i dey shame for if he joins. With only one term to rule and they'll kick him out.

Wishful Thinking

Racoon:
So after all the "APC blame Jonathan for........, Jonathan ran the most corrupt government" etc. It is now "We Will Celebrate If Goodluck Jonathan Decides To Join Us – APC"

This people are irredeemably stupid and shameless.
Hope all their equally irredeemable mummified zombies can see their miserable lives especially that dead meat griller? APC is fighting corruption indeed.

Baba, u spoke my mind. The hypocrisy is beyond this earthly realm
