Why I'm Proud To Be a Democrat
Thomas R. Hassler, Lancaster City
I am proud to be a
Democrat. Because the Democratic Party wants to get things done for
the betterment of the people of the United States. This includes
providing the opportunity for better health care for the American
people, improving the regulation of the financial markets, expanding
consumer protection, winding down the occupation in Iraq, putting the
Government in Afghanistan on notice by giving a start date for
American troop withdraw, working to restart the middle east peace
process and doing all it can to stimulate the domestic economy during
these hard economic times.
