The first answer from lareddawg is as correct as the second answer is absolutely WRONG! The philosophy of the American left is socialists and anti theme to the concept of America as a republic.\nNote Art 4, Sec. 4, founded as a Republic...The founders detested the concept of democracy as a government form that has historically always failed.

not nearly as many as they used to. I think last time I read they had like over 100,000, maybe more. They don't bring in the ranks anymore because the Socialist Party USA has taken a lot of their potential members...

When addressing them it is Congressman or Congresswoman.\n\nWhen describing them it can either be the same (most common) or "So and So, the Representative from whatever state".\n\n(and it is not a bad question, relax)

I always thought they were already buddies. Socialism and communism go hand in hand. The "odd" one out is conservatism. Socialism as far as I can see is only good for team sports. It has never worked for very long as a ruling force as a government.  No government should run a country. The country should run the government. I wish here in the U.S. all politicians worked in Washington for 6 months then had to go home and have a "real" job for 6 months. We would be able to handle poverty, care for our senior citizens and run our education system a lot better than a bunch of stuffed shirt fat a$$ ed hair sprayed ego maniacs who never see or  care what really needs to be done. But we have created a monster here  and we need to wake up and make some changes or further suffer the consequences of an ever growing government that can only grow by taking more and more of our freedom away.

1) ethics, like President Bush has;\n2) lack of name-calling, like is presently happening with our party, and happened with President Bush with the Republican party;\n3) someone who actually cares about our national interests instead of giving everything away to satisify world opinion or the U.N.  Strength is not politically incorrect;\n4) someone who supports free speech, on all sides;\n5) someone who respect freedom of expression, including religious expression\n6) someone who respects and abides by our constitution\n7) someone who represents all of us, regardless of party, and who wouldn't try to undermine out country just because he lost\n8) someone who actually understands the benefits of capitalism and isn't a socialist.\n9) someone who understands the benefits of democracy and won't lead the charge to throw a fit if we lose again in the next election, but will stand proud and say, "We'll see next election.  Now, what shall we discuss and see who the U.S. citizens side with next... ."\n10) Anyone who respects our military and hasn't forgotten that we entered Iraq to enforce the conditions of the cease-fire (not peace) that Saddam agreed to but not only failed to abide by but actually actively evaded.  We ended the cease-fire after a decade of this behavior and a U.N. that kept claiming it would do something and didn't.   We had the cease-fire in the first place because Iraq attacked Kuwait, we defended Kuwait at their request, and Iraq attacked us, even after getting multiple requests to stop once we drove him over the border.\n\nFor those of us with memories longer than a decade our party has done a really lousy job of presenting the facts, and the Republicans are eating it up, including the Republicans that act just like the kind of President I want to avoid.\n \nLast, I want a President who wants real equality.  Even I'm tired of giving special privledges.  Enough.  Equality.  Period.  Severe penalties for those who abuse it.\n\nGod, the party's gone so far Socialist that I sound like a Republican.  I was independent for years.  Time I got back here and kicked some...Socialist ideas out.

why the socialist party of course, at least in America.  They also came up with an 80-hour max. work week, unions, equal pay for women and men, and a host of other things laborers today would be pretty sad to be without.

Republicans. He didn't take a party label, but his principles were clearly Federalist. He certainly believed in a strong defense. I don't think any of our founding fathers would support most of the Dem social positions such as gay marriage & abortion.

Actually the Nazis had a socialist form of government.  Now I am not about to start comparing anyone to the Nazis and the atrocities they committed during WW2, but if you were going to compare the 2 major parties in the US, most people would say the Republicans are more capitalist and the Democrats are more socialist. Please post another question if you need a definition of socialism and capitalism, I will be glad to help educate you.

Only 1 that I know of is in favor of that... Charlie Rangel from NY.  Why would you make such a generalization about the entire Democratic party based on what ONE member thinks?  I'm a Republican myself, but I have to come to the defense of the Democrats on this one.  The vast majority of Dems don't agree with Rangel's position and won't support it.\n\nSee... this is why you need to actually pay ATTENTION to the news and think for yourself, not just parrot what someone else is saying.
