I personally know several Democrats who are in favor of the marketplace, individual freedom, individually owned firearms, etc. Senator Zell Miller certainly is, as was the late and much lamented John F. Kennedy. It is true that today's Democratic Party is led by people who are opposed to the above ideas. They make a mockery of the term "liberal," since they are the very antithesis of classical liberalism. They favor government control over as much of the individual's life as possible, choosing government coercion over individual freedom at every turn. > Socialism is the final solution for the Democrat Leftist Liberals.
