Hahahahahahahahahaha.
Maybe at one time, yes, but today NO.
I have copies of both the republican and democrat party platform(s) and if the repub's stuck too their original platform, I'd say your correct. They swayed sooooooooooooooo far from their original platform that they don't even come close to what they originally started as.
And don't tell me the dem's raised taxes and the repub's lowered them, that crappola has been the theme BS for as long as I can remember.
Both parties STILL refer to this country as a "democracy". BOTH parties STILL act as if they are the master and we are the servants. Neither party has ever tried to end ANY of FDR's socialistic "New Deal" policies. In fact both parties have been expanding them to greater proportions then even FDR could have ever dreamed of.
So tell me, what are the "vast" diffderences?
One Party is for Life and the other is for Death. As a nominee everyone's main priority was Pro-Life and now that isn't good enough.
