i dont exactly kno alot but i do know that republicans are against abortions and democrats are free life.
The Republican vote was divided between Taft and Roosevelt, which allowed Democrat Woodrow Wilson to win. Similar outcomes occurred in 1992 and 2000.
Although the United States maintains a predominately two party system between the Democrat and Republicans factions exist within and amongst them. Factions such as the Democrat's Blue Dogs and Republican Tea Party members exist and comprise formidable political blocs.
The difference is that a political party is part of how a politician is identified and interest groups are groups that focus specifically on certain issues. Depending on the issue interest groups tend to support a political party. For instance the NRA which is for less strict gun control laws associates themselves with the Republican Party. An interest group that is supportive of equal rights for all Americans would associate with the Democrat Party.
It depends... In modern America, a republican usually just means someone who is a member of, or supports, or tends to support, the Republican party, whereas a constitutionalist believes there is some straightforward interpretation of the Constitution that should limit the policy choices of whoever is in power, Democrat or Republican, and will tend to support candidates who share this view. In this view, Republicans can vary widely in views, as long as they are closer to those of the Republican than Democratic party, whereas constitutionalists will vary by how they interpret various parts of the Constitution (are armed private citizens necessarily a "well-regulated militia") as well as weighing the various parts. In general, a Republican will desire a larger role for business in society, a stricter interpretation of the role of the military, more conservative social values, and a larger place for the legal system for enforcing limits on social behavior, whereas a constitutionalist need have no particular views on the place of large business, and may or may not advocate for a wider realm of personal freedom (the "pursuit of happiness"). A case can also be made that the above is a capital-R Republican, and a small-r republican believes in the principle of a republic, that is, electing skilled, competent leaders and trusting their policy decisions, as opposed to a small-d democrat, who believes in direct public participation in government. In these terms, the difference would have to do with how much power the government has to interpret the legal structure of law as defined by the Constitution in the interest of efficiency (i.e. a republican may support a immediate executive action were the country moving towards war, while a constitutionalist would insist that only Congress have the power to declare war, for example) In other countries, and at different times in history, both terms meant different things, and were associated with different values.

A Democrat is a member of the Democratic Party, a democrat is someone who generally believes in principles of democracy. A democrat can be a Republican. That is someone who embraces the concept of democracy can be a member of the Republican Party. In fact, it is quiet likely that Republicans are democrats, as opposed to being Monarchists for example.
A democrat is part of the democratic party. They are for poor people, and other nice factors. A republican is also a person of the republican party. They are unwilling to help the poor, and other factors.
Some people find the parties to seem the same because they lack the courage to stand up for issues
Every four years there's a debate between the democrat runner up and the republican runner up.
At the moment there is a recount in progress, because the vote difference between Republican Tom Emmer and Democrat Mark Dayton. Dayton is ahead of Emmer by just 1,000 votes.
An *Independent* typically favors less gov't. If you consider a Republican to the right and a Liberal to the left, an Independent falls someplace in the middle. However, the term "Independent" is very vague and since there is not an actual political party, there are no specific political positions. In reality, the label "Independent" is a bit of a farce. If you look into the voting records of a politician who is labeled as such, you will find that they vote towards the views of one of the main 2 parties. In Europe, their are several parties and their politicians range from much farther right than a typical U.S. Republican and much farther left than a U.S. Democrat / Liberal. In reality, the differences in political position between Republican and Democrat is very minimal when you look at the wide range of views of a European group of politicians. Therefore, a U.S. Independent is typically a politician who is breaking from their original party, but doesn't want to make the leap to the *other* party.
There is one main difference between a Democrat and a Republican, and it can be summed up with two presidential quotes. Ronald Reagan, a Republican president, once said "Government is not the solution to our problems, government is the problem." Bill Clinton, a Democratic president, once said "Democrats do not believe government can do everything, but we believe there are some things it must do." (Those might not be the EXACT words they said, but they're close if they're not dead on.)
Democrats have 84 legislative seats and republicans have 56.
Savannah Guthrie is Democrat
