Barack Obama and Joe Biden at 2008 DNC
According to the article, "Democratic Party Platform: Pro-Gay Marriage, Immigration Reform, Shots At Romney, Squishy On Guns" from the Huffington Post written on September 3rd, 2012 by Sam Stein, the democratic party has officially unveiled its 2012 platform. The forty page document touches on subjects such as healthcare, medicare, taxes, unions, immigration reform, arts funding, abortion, gay marriage, and guns. It also makes sure to take a few shots at Mitt Romney, especially on the topic of outsourcing. The Democratic Party is all for developing our companies within the country, for the betterment of America. Therefore, it plans to give benefits to the companies which insource rather than outsource; while the Republican Party believes that outsourcing is the best way to move forward. One can predict that this topic will definitely be brought up in the President's speech at the Democratic National Convention, beginning on Tuesday, September 4 in Charlotte, North Carolina. However, one issue that is for sure, is that each party has drastically different views on nearly everything, which will make for a great last few weeks of campaigning.
