Get the conservative democrat mug.Usually one of the two most likely political clubs to be approved by the administration of a college or university. First time members are usually freshmen with just an inkling of political sense or people who hope to find fellow "progressive" radicals. In essence, not too much different from College Repbulicans in that they stage their own protests, act as if they have true political swag, create events that bring protests from the opposing campus "party," and gives you an excuse to start conversations The political shoe is just on the other foot.
Dave became a poli-sci major freshman year and decided to join the College Democrats. He gave his dues and ended up joining a few protests and campaign supporting functions. Eventually, he became friends with the Howard Dean/Hillary Clinton/Barack Obama loving fanatics and rose to be president of the club. In the end, College Democrats provided him with some angsty, allegedly savvy hookups and some decent resume padding.

Get the Democrat mug.A stupid and epically failed attempt at describing a democratic system of government. It follows the same characteristics as irregardless, a whole nother, guesstimate, and more better.
Stupid Chick:Japan is more stricter than most democrative systems....
Father: I think you mean democratic.
Stupid Chick: God Bless You

Get the Democrative mug.Somebody who advocates for the installment of a socialist economy through democratic means (i.e. elections etc.)
The prime characteristics of such an economic system include:
- partial or complete governmental control over the means of production.
- a planned economy, in which the state determines how much of a certain product is made to combat wastefulness
Democratic socialists often also support:
- expanding social benefits, such as health care
- implementing or strengthening workers rights to participate in business decisions.
- more power to the trade unions
- setting a limit for wage gaps, e.g. top managers can't earn more than 20 times as much as the worker with the lowest wage

A: Bernie Sanders is a democratic Socialist.
B: Democratic socialism? Pff. That's an oxymoron! Socialism leads to autocracy and gulags!
B: I'm sorry, but you seem to be stuck in the fifties with all of the cold war propaganda.

Get the Democratic Socialist mug.A political party of libtards for libtards. A political philosophy based on:
1) Support of the most popular and radical social justice issue. If rainbow coloured unicorns wished to transition into pineapples, then democrats would initiate a mass media campaign with additional funding for grassroots transition centres for pineapple inclined unicorns.
2) Excessive funding and spending is secured by printing cash on demand. The consequences of a devalued dollar, increased costs and inflation are ignored completely. Democrats are economically irresponsible.
3) Radical bias. Every opposing view, regardless of how fact based or valid, will be denounced as racist, bigoted or a part of fascist/nazi ideology. Events are cherry picked and a false narrative is imposed upon the opponent's view. This is ironic considering that the democrats historically supported slavery and the KKK. Incessantly supported, without criticism or balanced reporting by mainstream media and commentators on CNN, ABC and MSNBC.
4) Government is the only source of salvation. Citizens are too stupid or incapable of making the correct decision so the democrats are willing to enforce an authoritarian solution upon the public. The democrats will fight for freedom by removing the freedoms of all citizens to support their ideology.

The democrats will fight for freedom by removing the freedoms of all citizens to support their ideology.
5) Uncontrolled immigration and open voting rights to ensure that the democrats party remains in power. By allowing noncitizens to vote, one can completely ignore the concerns of genuine citizens. Open voting rights will remove any claims of election fraud, since it will be legal for anyone to vote without tracking their identity. Vote early, vote often and assist the dead and non-residents to vote as well.
6) Hypocrisy. One can argue for against related issues without any compulsion to face reality. If there is no truth nor false ideas, then you can believe anything at anytime. If opponents accuse you of hypocrisy, then accuse them of the errors you yourself have committed.
7) Anti-nationalism. Nationalism is evil and reinforces objective history, individual freedoms, justice and opportunities within society. This needs to be squashed at all costs. Supporters need to be self-hating and ashamed of their history and nation. If supporters are white, then they need to display greater shame and self sacrifice than any other ethnic group.
The democrat party is the least democratic and most fascist party in modern politics. Also known as Demoncrats.
Dwenzil: The democrats have released statistics indicating that the white population of the US is less than 50% for the first time in history!
Wisteria: OMG! Let us celebrate by marching for rainbow unicorn rights in Slovakia while denouncing Republicans as the children of Hitler.
