== Contemporary Party ==

The contemporary Republican Party represents a wide array of interests such as the conservative evangelicals and the economic libertarians. The party has had some internal conflict over attitudes about how governments should run and how large they should be, what the party stands for, and what the party's attitude towards [[neo-conservatism]] should be especially in regard to foreign policy. The party is also divided over immigration issues with some members (such as George Bush) favoring workers visas and permits and some other members favoring strict control of immigration and strong action against illegal immigration.

The Party is often criticized as not accepting non-Christian faiths, being American Imperialistic, extremely weak on issues such as global warming and the environment, and ignoring the Bill of Rights. The Republican Party also often favors large corporations through tax breaks and exemptions to laws that would pit their financal success against concerns about environmental, finanical, and social equity.
