Real News From The Blaze' Breaks Down Democratic Party Platform
September 04, 2012
The Democratic Party released their platform this week, placing strong emphasis on themes focused on by the Obama campaign, including "rebuilding middle class security" and "asking all to pay their fair share." The document notably endorses same-sex marriage for the first time, as well as calls for the reinstatement of the assault weapons ban and "strongly and unequivocally supports Roe v. Wade and a woman's right to make decisions regarding her pregnancy, including a safe and legal abortion, regardless of ability to pay."
On "Real News From The Blaze" Tuesday, the panel compared the platform and it's reception to the considerable amount of focus that was placed the "extreme" positions in the Republican Party platform released last week. What respect does the Democratic platform give to religious Americans? Are there any Democratic platform positions that could be considered "moderate?" Does the platform take into account the beliefs of all Democrats, or is it solely a campaign plank written to support the positions of President Obama? Watch a clip from Tuesday's show below:
