Political Perspectives in Parties

“There is nothing which I dread so much as a division of the republic into two great parties, each arranged under its leader, and concerting measures in opposition to each other. This, in my humble apprehension, is to be dreaded as the greatest political evil under our Constitution.” -John Adams, 1789

Party Domination U.S.= Multi Party System Republicans and Democrats dominate U.S. politics Republican: Conservatives Democratic: Liberal

Where on the Issues? Not all Republicans and Democrats vote the same way Depends on the issue Is Arizona a Republican or Democratic state?
