Best Answer

During the reconstruction period, the Republican party was strong in preventing laws which would prohibit freed slaves from voting, from owning land, and from earning income.

In more recent times, the Democratic party has taken on this cause, and assisted with the civil rights measures in the 1960's and has been instrumental in affirmative action programs.

the stages of development of the republican party were after the Kansas-Nebraska Act, the democratic Party began to divide along selectional lines, with Northern Democrats leaving the party.

What do Democrats want done with guns?

That's sort of a vague question, but generally speaking, Democrats are as split as the rest of the country on what to do about guns. Obama has signed every piece of NRA supported legislation that has come to his desk. Many Democrats are NRA members and many support positions that the NRA would not agree with.

What have Republican Party done for African American?

Since you obviously don't know how to write sentences properly i guess I shouldn't expect you to know. In George W. Bush's 8 year term one of his constant focuses was helping out the Africans in Africa. Billions of Dollars of aid, and physical aid, and people sent to help. And more, look it up. Yes, George Bush is a Republican and a former president. And, when slavery was legal in America, Republicans were the only party against it and they fought to get rid of slavery, while Democrats stood beating there slaves and saying that they treat them fine , they love it and there is no problem. The first Republican, Lincoln , issued a proclamation that freed all slaves in the rebelling states. In addition, Lincoln held the union together through a great civil war that at great cost ended slavery altogether in the US.

Which party is currenty the majority in the US Congress?

Republican. It is one reason the Congress has done nothing. The Republican members decided to put up road blocks on bills and appointments. They have managed to stop bills and not compromise on issues.

Do Democrats Do Republican?

Please rewrite your question. If you are asking if they cross party lines the answer is yes. There are Democrats who vote with the Republicans. The nickname for them is "Blue Dogs". At one time more people in Congress on both sides would compromise and cross party lines to get the people's business done.

What is an example of Straight ticket?

There are two ways to vote a "straight ticket," which means you vote for only Democrats or only Republicans. You can go down the ballot and vote for everyone from that party, or you can check the "straight ticket" box and have the same thing happen. North Carolina does it a little different: checking "straight ticket" votes for everyone in that party except the president, who is voted for separately. The reason this is done is a lot of people vote for Democrats for every elected office, then vote Republican for president.

Is Republican presidential candidate John Kasich considered center-right?

Yes, I think most political observers would say that Mr. Kasich can be categorized as center-right. His political rhetoric is less incendiary and more pragmatic than, let's say, Ted Cruz or other of the more conservative Republican candidates; and Mr. Kasich has also done some things that are unusual for Republicans, such as allowing the Medicaid expansion of Obamacare, so that more poor people in Ohio could be covered. Democrats, however, might disagree with this assessment, noting that over all, his policies have been more conservative and even extreme, especially his opposition to unions and his willingness to curtail access to abortion. Undoubtedly, in a party that has moved so far to the right, Republican candidates like Mr. Kasich are seen as more moderate, since they are occasionally willing to compromise with Democrats, rather than being rigidly unwilling to even consider any policy with which Democrats might agree.
