Originally posted by rogue06 View PostIt likely has a lot to do with the Democrats moving so rapidly to the far left (saying that Socialism is not the answer now leads to resounding booing among them) that what is a centrist or center right position is for them far right.

Originally posted by One Bad Pig View PostSince when did Andrew Jackson found the Democrats? He may have started its association with the working class, and changed it in significant ways, but the Democrats (initially known as Democrat-Republicans) were around from the beginning.
After Andrew Jackson lost to John Quincy Adams in the election of 1824, Jackson's supporters created their own organization to get him elected. After Jackson's election in 1828, that organization became known as the Democratic Party. The National Republicans eventually coalesced into the Whig Party.

Granted, I should have said Jackson’s supporters, but he still is an important figure in US political history and the reason the modern Democrat party exist today. He was the first populist president and caused quite a stir in his era, even fracturing his party and having a new one formed to get him elected. I can see why Trump would like him, since they both are boat rockers that shook up the political landscape.Last edited by lilpixieofterror; 06-21-2019, 07:55 AM."The man from the yacht thought he was the first to find England; I thought I was the first to find Europe.

Considering Thomas Jefferson's beliefs concerning limited government (especially the federal government), tracing their roots back to him has always been a stretch.
Anywho... From their article "History of the United States Democratic Party"

Trump’s favorite president is Andrew Jackson, not Andrew Johnson. It’s a shame that congress, under Johnson, acted just as lawless, isn’t it?Last edited by lilpixieofterror; 06-21-2019, 09:41 AM."The man from the yacht thought he was the first to find England; I thought I was the first to find Europe.

Keep that tin foil hat securely tight, Jimmy. In reality land, unemployment is at its lowest levels in decades with more jobs than people to fill them. Where was the lie at again?Last edited by JimL; 06-21-2019, 06:49 PM.
