The birth of the Republican Party was in the mid 19th century. The party at that time was radical in several ways. Here are a few of them:
A. They were evangelical Christians. Jews and Roman Catholics were not liked or trusted. This was radical for a nation that loved freedom. Near Boston a radical mob burned down a Catholic Nunnery;
B. They were radical antislavery abolitionists; and
Both of these traits were radical ones. Some of them wanted the US Constitution to be changed to make the nation a Protestant Nation.
