democrat or republican?

This is a great primer on the American Republican form of Government.

And it's also an interesting meditation on the names of the two parties, and how very accurate they are, and how specifically and exactly they match their respective philosophies.

After seeing this, anyone with a brain should be embarrassed to call themselves a "Democrat".

And perhaps most important to me is the beginning, in which the video maker makes it clear that Communism and Fascism belong on the same end of the spectrum. Both represent "too much government", and both have the same objectives in mind...total control of The People.

I have argued for a while now, that while Communism is indeed a Left Wing phenomenon, Fascism, in contradiction to what the ignorant will argue, is not a Right Wing phenomenon, as we are reminded by the very name of the most notorious Fascist regime in history, the National Socialist Party....or, NaZi Party of Germany.
