The Republicans

The Republican Party, also known as the Grand Old Party (GOP), was founded by anti-slavery expansion activists in 1854. The Republican Party had the 2^nd most registered voters in 2004 with a total of 55 million voters compared to the 72 million Democratic voters. While the Republicans hold a majority of the seats in the House of Representatives, they hold a minority in the U.S. Senate. This party leans more to the center-right in the U.S Political Spectrum. Some of the previous Republican Presidents were Ronald Reagan, who increased the U.S. National Debt and dug a deeper for hole for Americans to get out of. President George W. Bush was another former Republican President of the United States. He as well dug a very deep hole for America to get out of. We’re currently still trying to get out of the mess he got us Americans into. The War in Afghanistan is officially the longest war to date that the United States has participated in, even longer than the Vietnam War and George W. Bush is to blame. The Republicans are out there to make the rich richer and the poor even more poor than they already are. They’re not out there to make America a better country to live in, they’re out there to put more cash in their pockets.
