Even though many of the issues are different now than they were when Bryan was alive, I think in a lot of ways, he'd still idenify with the Democrats. His economic populism, his support for a progressive income tax, his embrace of the Social Gospel, his distaste for trickle down economics, his call for class warfare, his support for unionism, all fit him in the Democratic party, even today.--[[User:Epicurius|Steve]] 19:02, 8 June 2007 (EDT)

:And, I see my edit removing the line has been reverted. Why is it doubtful that he would identify with the Democrats today? The way the sentence is structured, it makes it seem like he wouldn't be a Democrat today because he was an evangelical, but there are a lot of evangelical Democrats today.--[[User:Epicurius|Steve]] 13:53, 10 June 2007 (EDT)
