The Republican Party is one of the two major contemporary political parties in the United States, along with the Democratic Party. Founded by anti-slavery expansion activists in 1854, it is often called the Grand Old Party or the GOP, despite being the younger of the two major parties. The party's platform is generally considered right of center in the U.S. political spectrum. The Republican Party has the second most registered voters as of 2004 with 55 million, encompassing roughly one-third of the electorate. Polls over the last two years have found that 20% to 34% of Americans self-identify as Republicans. There have been eighteen Republican Presidents, compared to fifteen Democrats. Republicans currently fill a minority of seats in both the United States Senate and the House of Representatives, hold a minority of state governorships, and control a minority of state legislatures.

GNU Free Documentation License United States third party presidential candidates? Q. Why do we only hear about the Democratic Party and the Republican Party and not abot the other people running like Constitution Party, Green Party, Libertarian Party, Prohibition Party, Socialist Party USA, Socialist Workers Party,Unity08 Party, and the Independents. why dont we hear about those candidates. Asked by Christian B - Sun Jan 27 03:05:23 2008 - - 5 Answers - 0 Comments A. Because most third parties have a limited platform. They usually of only one issue to campaign on. As voters have more than one concern, they tune out third parties. Answered by wichitaor1 - Sun Jan 27 03:42:18 2008 How can the Republican party get back on track? Q. I like the ideals that the party supposedly stands for - it was the party of Abraham Lincoln! The party that stopped slavery. The party that held the united states together. They believed in Fiscal Responsibility. They believed in the rights of the common man. They believed in Modernization! They believed that everyone was responsible for what they did, But now, it's so different. The ideals are warped and lost. The rights of the common man have given way to the rights of Big Business. Fiscal responsibility has given way to running deficits and massive debt. Modernization has given way to fear of the future - Stem Cell research, for example (and no, babies were never involved!). And war after war after war. What can they do? I want to… [cont.] Asked by jack99skellington - Sat Oct 11 13:08:31 2008 - - 13 Answers - 0 Comments A. I, too, wish Republicans would return to their traditional values, even though I'm a liberally minded individual. The neo-con values that Republicans seem to uphold today, bolstered by glorified disc jockeys Rush Limbaugh and Sean Hannity, are not a viable option in my book. I actually like traditional conservatives, like my Republican Senator George Voinovich; they provide a good alternative for inferior Democrat candidates. I think the Republicans need to re-evaluate their platform positions. They rarely do much for the common man. They only seem to help the wealthiest Americans and expect the wealthy Americans to help out the common man. I believe that is fundamentally flawed in that the wealthiest Americans have little incentive… [cont.] Answered by Mercer Devil - Sat Oct 11 13:20:03 2008 Why in the United States there are only two parties called Republican and Democratics?
Q. I am not American... Asked by SUPERNATURAL2006 - Thu Oct 5 00:08:50 2006 - - 17 Answers - 0 Comments A. Both parties are close to being the same. As Ralph Nader put it,'The only difference between the Republicans and the Democrates is the velocity by which their knees hit the floor when the Corporations knock" In the US , through years of "Brain Washing" the term Socialist has become a very dirty word. The poor and working class have no representation in Government. There will never be any progress until the people realize they are being taken for a very expensive ride. The Dems give lip service but do nothing when they get in power. Just my opinion Answered by Brainy - Thu Oct 5 00:25:09 2006 From Yahoo Answer Search: "republican party"
