A non biased definition of Democrat

The Democratic Party is one of the two major contemporary political parties in the United States, along with its rival, the Republican Party. It is the worlds oldest active political party. Democrats generally tend to adopt left wing views, advocating social and economic equality. The Northeastern states are typically more left leaning and the Democratic party is more supported by those living in urban areas and younger demographics. As of 2019, 15 Democrats have served as President of the United States.
Democrats and Republicans have different views on many topics

As a Democrat, I believe in stricter gun laws.

One of the two major political parties in the United States. Democrats believe in equal rights, and aren't stupid homophobes that believe gays should not be allowed to marry because of what a book says. They have also set up many programs like medicare, welfare, etc. that help the lower-class citizens, which make up most of the country.

They also believe in women's rights, such as abortion. They also believe that if there is something that needs to be done, it is up to them to do it, and not the almighty God.

They care about the people of their country, and have a heart and help the less fortunate.
"He's more worried about unborn things that are probably a mistake and would cause the unfortunate victim nine months of pain and misery and homosexuals, who are apparently evil, getting married? A Republican.

He's more worried about equal rights of everyone in the country, the freedom of our people, and helping the poor and middle-class citizens instead of the filthy rich that make up only a small percentage of our population? A Democrat."

Some who is sincere and honest and believes in real freedom. Not a Greedy Oligarchical Plutocrat. Someone who believe that government should help those that need help to help themselves not that everyone should just be for themself. One who believe in a strong central national government. Some one who believe is government of, by and for the people not government of, by and for the elite and priveleged. Also one who believe in Democracy
FDR, JFK and LBJ where great Democratic Presidents

-A person who is not a Republican, that is, is not selfish, self-centered, and greedy.
-A true democrat is a person that embraces the idea of freedom-the belief that each human being has the right to make her/his own decisions.
-A democrat believes in equality and in making available services to those with not enough money to afford them, because a democrat understands that poverty is not due to laziness, but rather to problems affecting a person's life.
-A democrat understands that not everyone can afford to go to college.
-A democrat truly embraces the First Amendment of the Constitution, declaring freedom of religion, freedom of speech,freedom of the press, and the freedom to assemble.
A single mother with breast cancer unable to work to feed her child and to afford adequate treatment for her illness begs on the streets for money or food.
A Republican's answer:'Ahh that lazy b*tch, if she just found a job or went to church. She deserves this for her awful sin of having sex before marriage. The Lord knows what he's doing!'
A Democrat's answer: 'I will give her money and start fundraising to gather money to help her.'

One of the two major political parties in the United States. Founded in 1828 by tennessee politician and later president Andrew Jackson and his supporters, the party originally held a more conservative view. However, over time, the party became more liberal in the early 20th Century, taking on a more progressive economic policy during Franklin Roosevelt’s presidency. During the civil rights movement in the 1960s, it’s commonly acknowledged to have switched places with its historical rival, the Republican Party, to become the more socially liberal party, as the republicans became the conservatives. Running on liberal policies generalized into pro environmentalism, protection and expansion of civil rights, regulation of the market so it does not hurt the people, and regulation of firearms. Despite it being considerably more liberal than its republican counterpart, the party acts much more conservative than most of the world’s other progressive parties. In recent years, factions of the party have become even more progressive, arguing for social democratic programs to become a part of the party’s agenda, spearheaded by certain politicians, most notably Vermont senator bernie sanders. As of now, they hold power in the lower seat of congress, the House of Representatives, while the Republican Party holds the senate and the presidency.
Conservatives often hear the Fox News definition of liberalism, and automatically assume the Democratic Party is evil.
