The Donkey and The Elephant

Keith, Patrick AMH2010

It seems to me that the rise of the Republican Party revolutionized politics in the United States. The Republican Party developed a central and specific platform to campaign from. This platform galvanized its supporters, socially conforming them to a specific ideal, and further polarized politics forever more in the United States. Because of the early development of the GOP, parties other than the surviving Democratic party and the GOP could never find room in the political landscape to survive.
