Assume the role of an individual who supported the Democratic Party
Assume the role of an individual who supported the Democratic Party, try
not to make assumptions. Instead, assume the historical role of someone who lived in the United States in the period up to, and including, the 1950s/1960s. You could be a Cold War warrior, segregationist, member of the Civil Rights movement, progressive or conservative. Your assignment is to pick ONE national election: 1948,1952, 1956 or 1960 and discuss “your person”; “their platform” and why you embrace that political party. Finally, make sure that you stress how your political party embodies the spirit of previous eras or how it is considerably different.
