In our last class we studied political parties and discussed their mandates and philosophies. I found this chart on the internet which depicts the ideals of various parties and their stance on different issues.
I found the chart very useful because it concisely illustrates the differences and similarities between several political parties.
The chart broadly categorizes parties under the banners of 'Left' and 'Right' and then provides detail about their philosophies. (It's a pretty well designed infogram as well).
We often assume that a politician can be a Democrat or a Republican but this chart also explores other political philosophies as well.
Hope it Helps

I initially started watching the video below (sorry I don't know how to hyperlink on a comment) because Santorum was going to talk about unemployment in America, but as the video goes on Santorum makes a lot of comments that I believe show the true identity of the Republican party and its ideals. So I just wanted to share this video because it displays how the Republican party thinks about social issues and government intervention in real life situations.
