Question

Since the Democratic Party is not anything like the Party of FDR and JFK are they a Party of Neo-Libs?

Answer 1

"Left wing liberal loonies" is my favorite descriptive term.

Answer 2

Your premise is wrong.  The Democratic party is now and has always been the party of the people.  They believe in doing what is right on all issues.  This is in stark contrast to the corrupt republican party which is nothing but a cover for the moneyed interests in this country that are trying to increase their power and wealth any way they can.  Read your history.  With few exceptions this has always been the case for both parties.

Answer 4

Answer 5

No,they've always been Socialists,just not hardcore Marxist ones as they are these days.

Answer 6

THE DEMOCRAT PARTY IS THE PARTY OF JIMMY CARTER- SPINELESS AND GUTLESS. THEY ARE NAIVE AS TO THE WANTS OF THE PEOPLE. OF COURSE, THEY ARE FOLLOWED CLOSELY BEHIND BY THE REPUBLICANS. NO POLITICIAN TODAY CARES A WHIT ABOUT THE PUBLIC. THEY ARE ONLY INTERESTED IN LINING THEIR OWN POCKETS. THEY ARE INTO A FATE ACCOMPLI.

Answer 7

Well, they do keep funding the war, Obama wants to expand the military. But then again, Dems did get us into WW 1, WW 2 Korea, Viet Nam, come in an eyelash of war with the USSR, and used a nuke. Why do you think they never were neo libs before?

Answer 8

No.. more like Progressives from earlier in the last century, or of the Fabian Socialist
