The Democratic Party

 

            
             The United States" Democratic Party is a strong political party and many people support their views. The Democratic Party has many basic beliefs. They believe in creating long-term economic growth, stability in Social Security, a Patient's Bill of Rights, and equality for women. A long term of economic growth is one main belief of the Democratic Party. Democrats created 22 million jobs during the Clinton administration and creating a budget surplus in that time period. They want to cut taxes for lower and middle class citizens to stimulate economic growth and create more job opportunities. Another basic belief of the Democratic Party is security and stability of Social Security. Democrats work to maintain the security for senior citizens, disabled people, and survivors of family members who have died. There would be 11.5 million people in poverty if they did not receive Social Security, which was begun by Franklin D. Roosevelt in 1935. The third main belief is a Patient's Bill of Rights. The Democratic Party wants to institute this Bill of Rights so that medical decisions are made by doctors and their patients and not the insurance companies that are paying for the health care. This has been an ongoing fight in the House of Representatives since 1996. The fourth basic belief is the equal rights for women. Democrats believe in equal pay for women, along with equal opportunity. Another big part of women's rights is the right to choose. They believe that it is the women's right to choose to take responsibility for a child or to terminate it before the child is born. Many Republicans disagree, saying that it is up to the government to make the choice. All of the beliefs are essential to the Democratic Party.
             There are also many people who support the Democratic Party. Many supporters of the Democratic Party are minorities, women, and labor unions. Minorities support democrats because the Democratic Party supports equal opportunity and social services to provide for minorities.
