What's the Diffrence between Republicans and Democrats?

 It is vital to understand that the USA is NOT a democracy. We are a Constitutional Republic in which laws made by representatives chosen by the people must comply with the US or State Constitution. The US Constitution specifically protects the rights of the minority from the will of the majority.

In a democracy, laws are made directly by the voting majority, leaving the rights of the minority largely unprotected.

With the Democrats recent turn to far left policies and practices, it is important to understand the differences between these political parties.  Here are a few:


Republicans believe that the fundamental human rights of individuals of  Life, Liberty and the ability to pursue Happiness, come from God and not the government.  Our founding documents, the Declaration of Independence, Constitution and Bill of Rights provide for our protection from governmental overreach.  Democrats believe that those founding documents are "living", that is, changeable based on the latest fad, as a matter of convenience or when they don't like a Supreme Court ruling. 


Republicans believe in the fundamental freedoms that these documents provide: Freedom of Speech, Freedom to defend oneself, family and property, Freedom to practice one's own religion without government interference, Freedom of the press which allows the uncoerced and unpunished dissemination of news and opinion without governmental influence.

Democrats used to believe these fundamentals but the dominant Marxists/Communists in the Democrat party seek to silence or even destroy those who do not support leftist political goals such as promoting transgenderism, abolishing the police, erasing national borders and supporting illegal immigration.

  

Republicans believe that parents who love their children and know them best have the sacred responsibility for the upbringing and care of their children - not the government. 

Democrats believe in governmental control resulting in the undermining of parental rights, as in the attempts of school personnel to influence children and teens in matters of sexuality and political beliefs. This happens against parents' wishes and often without parents' knowledge. This dangerous and damaging political pressure is overstepping the bounds of their authority. 

 
 

Republicans are pro-business and pro worker. Communities thrive when businesses prosper with minimal interference, taxation or playing favorites by the government. More money in the hands of business owners typically means more opportunities for business expansion. This results in higher wages for workers, and most importantly, more jobs for the community. Democrat fiscal policies of "tax and spend" have resulted in a loss of population and jobs as businesses and families move from Illinois to other, more business-friendly states. The states pension crisis - the worst in the nation- hurts every one in Illinois.  No wonder people are moving out of Illinois!

Islam and Marxism: What's the Problem?


   Jihad and Revolution: The Convergence of Islam and Communism in Global Politics  Marxism and Islam's Alliance: Jihad and Revolution's Shared Goals |

The shared struggle of communism and Islam against Jews over the past 80 years is precisely the common element that Stalin and Hitler lacked to avoid destroying each other.

Marxism reveals its latent theological dimensions most clearly through Islam, whose archetypal foundations are inherently universal (Catholic in scope) and aligned

Is Sharia Law compatible with American Law?

  From Grok:

Sharia Law is not compatible with American law.

American law is based on the U.S. Constitution: specific laws come from elected legislatures, then courts interpret the laws, and rights are to be applied universally.

Sharia law is Islamic law, which is derived primarily from the Quran, Hadith, and Fiqh interpretations. Sharia law directs worship, personal conduct, family, criminal justice, economics, and governance. More
