*''[[Democratic Party|Democratic]] (as a verb in reference to the U.S. political party)'' — a grammatically incorrect term employed by Democrats to describe their party affiliation; for example, since a congressional member of the [[Republican Party]] would be referred to as a "[[Republican]] congressman/congresswoman" and a congressional member of the [[Libertarian Party]] is referred to as a "[[Libertarian]] congressman/congresswoman", it's logically inconsistent to refer to a member of the Democratic Party as a "Democratic congressman/congresswoman", despite the latter being the lamestream norm for terminology; furthermore, the term is used as a euphemism to hide the fact that the Democratic Party does not promote a democratic system.

*''[[Democratic Party|Democratic]] (as an adjective in reference to the U.S. political party)'' — a grammatically incorrect and inconsistently applied term employed by Democrats to describe their party affiliation; for example, since a member of the [[Republican Party]] can be referred to as "[[Republican]]" or "a Republican" (where the term can be used as a noun or adjective), and a member of the [[Libertarian Party]] can be referred to as "[[Libertarian]]" or "a Libertarian" (again, where it can be applied either as a noun or adjective), it's logically inconsistent to refer to a member of the Democratic Party as "Democratic" (where it can only be used as an adjective), despite the latter being the lamestream norm for terminology; furthermore, the term is used as a euphemism to hide the fact that the Democratic Party does not promote a democratic system.
