However, Republicans usually resonate with more people than Democrats do, by stoking a larger number of beliefs and folklores derived from American cultural dogma, such as, "freedom", "liberty", ideological capitalism (as opposed to pragmatic capitalism), and the construction of a common public enemy that threatens American civilization, be it Al Qaeda, the Soviet Union, Iran, Saddam Hussein, or whoever is the chosen enemy of the day.
Maybe Democrats will figure out that there is more success to be gained by pointing out the real foreign enemies of the nation -rather that insist the "real" enemies are always fellow Americans.
