Is there still a Republican Party or is it Democrats vs Tea Party now?

I went to a Tea Party "meeting" in early 2010. A friend brought me. They were extremely religiously conservative - anti-gay, anti-anything but white evangelical christian.

They wanted to get rid of all government programs except the military, which they wanted to expand. They wanted to privatize EVERYTHING - including schools. They firmly believed that if you couldn't afford children, you wouldn't have them - that the only reason the poor have children is to get more welfare income!

They strongly believed that the only way to get the economy going was to reduce taxes and eliminate regulation. They believed that if products were dangerous, people wouldn't buy them - we don't need safety regulations. They believed that there was already a checks and balances with a free market system.

There were racist remarks about our president, too.

The republican party is moderate, the Tea Party is situated between conservatism and libertarianism.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
