North or South??? The Democratic Parties


The difference between a Northern Democrat and a Southern Democrat:
A Northern Democrat probably did not believe in slavery, and was not super conservative. That means that they were looking to the future and had new ideas.
A Southern Democrat believed in slavery, and also had new ideas and a better outlook for the future. A Democrat is a Democrat no matter how you look at it, but maybe it's just a cover. What's in a name, anyway???

  • Southern Democrats and Northern Democrats are both members of the U.S. Democratic Party. The Southern resided in the South and the Northern, the North.
  • Northern Democrats and Southern Democrats were largely set apart by opinions of slavery
  • Northerners opposed slavery and Southerners fiercely defended it.

Thank you for posting this! You may want to take all the information, and put it in one post, that may be easier for some people to read if you don't want them jumping around from topic to topic?(Even though most are interconnected)

Thanks again for posting this!

The elephant represents the Republican party, and the donkey represents the Democratic party. The are often shown fighting, because the are commonly rivals.
