A right-leaning person when it comes to morals, values, and politics. Usually tend to be more conservative in their thinking and beliefs, which is a good thing. This is the title I fall under: Republican.
I am Proud To Be A Republican.

Here's my small view of Republican vs. Democratic ideas:
Julie is coming back from college on her first break and his having a conversation with her dad, a strong Republican:
Julie - Hey dad, ever since college I've been really growing Liberal ideas, and I truly support the Democratic platform now. Really, it's only fair that the rich pay more, and I think they should simply because they can.
Dad - Hm. Interesting Julie. Hey, by the way, how's your friend Amy doing?
Julie - Amy, well... she's doing alright I guess.
Dad - And how are you doing?
Julie - I'm doing excellent Dad!
Dad - How so?
Julie (proudly)- I have a 3.8 GPA and I'm acing my biology courses!
Dad - Julie, I'm extremely proud of you, and you know that. But, what about Amy?
Julie - Well, umm, Amy has a 1.9. Well I guess I don't feel all that bad for her, I mean she's happy. She parties all the time, she has a boyfriend, and she really doesn't care about college all that much. Grades don't seem to be on the top of her priority list.
Dad - Hm, that's sad. How about this! Why don't you go down to the dean's office and have a discussion, and see if you can transfer some of your GPA points over to Amy so you both get a 3.0! I mean, that's still great for your first year in college. You'll both be happy!
Julie - What?! No way! I worked my butt off for those grades. Last week I was up until 2 am every night studying for my finals. I nearly aced all of them. Julie went to three parties and came back to the room drunk every night.
Dad - So?
Julie - That would be unfair - I could'nt do that! They're my grades and I'm extremely proud of them. Julie deserved to fail her finals. That would simply be unfair. I deserve my grades.
Dad (pats her on the back) - Welcome to the Republican Party dear!

A republican is the member of the Republican Party, the historic rival of the Democrat Party. The Republican and Democrat party are the two main parties in the United States. The Republican party was founded in 1854 by the name GOP (Grand Old Party) by opponents of the Kansas-Nebraska Act.
The platform of the Republican Party of the United States is generally based on American conservatism, in contrast to the modern liberalism of the Democrats. The party consists of moderates, sometimes described as establishment Republicans, and members of the Tea Party or Freedom Caucus, who have been described as populist, right-wing, and far-right. The party also incorporates several other factions, such as Libertarian Republicans, who advocate libertarian policies.
The positions of the Republican Party have evolved over time. Contemporarily, the party's economic conservatism involves support for lower taxes, free market capitalism, deregulation of corporations, and restrictions on labor unions. The party is also socially conservative, and support gun rights, and other traditional values, often with a Christian foundation, including restrictions on abortion. In foreign policy, Republicans usually favor increased military spending, unilateral action, and anti-Communist revolutions, especially during the 1980s and 1990s. Other Republican beliefs include restrictions on immigration, opposition to drug legalization, and support for school choice.

A group that supports a Republic government. Contrary to poplular belief, America is a Republic, not a Democracy. Republicans are not racist, just because they don't hate white males doesn't mean that's the only thing they care about. They're not all rich either. Most are working middle class who have to work to pay taxes unlike lazy Democrats on welfare who won't find a job.
I am a Republican and have to live in a world full of hypocrytical Democrats.

More respectable than Democrats, a true Republican believes in fiscal responsibility and minimal government regulation in the economy. However, like the Democrats, they demonstrate their hypocrisy by the belief that government should regulate your personal life.
Not all Republicans are morons like Bush.
I admire Republicans like Senator McCain and Senator Lugar for their common-sense values and beliefs

A member of the Republican Party (USA)who is (pretty much always) socially conservative, generally free-market and person who opposes the Democratic party's agenda. Unfortuantely, some Democrats people have a blind hatred of Republicans, and vice versa.
