A Little Background: Created in the 1850's, the Republican Party (also called the GOP or the "Grand Old Party") were once considered the underdog. They began as a third party, falling behind the Democrats and the Whigs. Their first major victory came with the presidential election of Abraham Lincoln, which solidified their position in American politics.

What They Stand For: Often considered "the Right" or "conservative" party, the Republican Party opposes gay marriage, high taxes and abortion (except in the case of rape, incest or problem pregnancies). Many republicans support harsher punishments for drug users, standardized testing within schools and a strong military force. The Republicans were among the first and strongest supporters of the war in Iraq. They also favor privatization of healthcare.

Who Ran in 2004:
George W. Bush (Texas) for President
Dick Cheney (Wyoming) for Vice President
