Republican Party History

Wallace Said:

What are some significant/major events in the history of the Republican Party in the United States?

We Answered:

Freeing the slaves.

Dale Said:

How many times in recent history did the press bury the Republican party only to see a major comeback?

We Answered:

After Nixon, the MSM was ready to cremate the GOP and scatter the ashes. Then came Carter. Many people think 0bama will be worse than Carter. After Clinton was elected came the Republican Revolution in 1994. All this talk today about the Republicans being done is so much wishful thinking.

Reginald Said:

What is the history of elected officials with Republican Party affiliations supporting socialist-type programs

We Answered:

At the time of Theodore Roosevelt the GOP had a progressive wing.

During the depression as a minority party, the GOP had two wings: The "left wing" supported most of the New Deal while promising to run it more efficiently. The "right wing" opposed the New Deal from the beginning and managed to repeal large parts during the 1940s in cooperation with conservative southern Democrats in the conservative coalition.

Liberals, led by Dewey, dominated the Northeast. Conservatives, led by Taft, dominated the Midwest. The West was split, and the South was still solidly Democratic. Dewey did not reject the New Deal programs, but demanded more efficiency, more support for economic growth, and less corruption.

Today the parties are again challenging each other on the basis of efficency and cost/ benefits.

Ron Said:

If one needs to learn about the republican party do you look up History?

We Answered:

The Republican Party is not history. It's all wishful thinking by the loony libs. If the Republicans were not a threat, the left wouldn't bother talking about them. As it is, the bashing continues 24/7. Typical liberal b.s. But, of course, that's nothing new.

All you need to do is look back a mere four years. The Democratic party was a train wreck. They had no direction AT ALL after losing a "sure thing" election victory over a Bush second term. Didn't we hear talk about the Dems in the same tone we now hear about Republicans? We sure did.

Republicans are history? Hardly. The rebound is coming.
