Democratic-Republican party was all about the promotion of states rights and the primacy of the bankers, in the industrialist, and merchants.
In 1825 the democratic-Republican had split onto two, the Democratic and the Republicans. They decided to split up because in 1825 the new president was chosen of the United States, which was John Quincy. Since he got chosen things didn't go well. Many people were disagreeing among the Democratic- Republican and thats what cause them to split up. When the split up into competing factions it became the "Modern-day Democratic Party"
The parties now are so much different form the ones back then. They are different in a way that back then the party was very against taxes comparing it to now. Now that we are close to who our president is going to be many people that i know are paying attention at the taxes part. I know that if John MCcain wins the presidency he will change my life because if he's following Bush's steps he will keep the taxes rolling. Now that I'm big enough to work i will be getting payed and will get money taken away for the taxes and i will be making less money.
I personally think that the people from the parties in the 1800's will totally disagree with what is going on today because of the different believes. For example the taxes, as i mentioned earlier, were not that big back then if comparing it to today that they are a big deal now. I the people from the party during the 1800's came to life again and were to reunite with the ones today i think we would have a HUGE problem.
