Although tons of issues (e.g., tariffs, slavery, monopolies) aren't as prevalent anymore, it's pretty interesting to see just how little the parties have ACTUALLY changed. Obviously, modern day Democrats aren't supporting racial segregation and modern day Republicans aren't supporting protectionism, and they both get their main support from different areas of the country ... but as far as general principles go, especially when it comes to fiscal policies, they've both stuck to their roots for many, many decades.
