This video was not embed-able but I thought this was a good video and showed the similarities between the democratic platforms in the past and the platforms and beliefs democrats have today. (It is the whole video)

Hmmmm... This seems familiar.
Although this is an extremely over simplified explanation of a much more complicated platform a lot of what is said in this video is similar to today's Democratic ideals and platforms. One part of this video says "revitalize 'home town' America by bailing out failing institutions". Even in the 2000's we saw this happen. It doesn't matter what year it is whether it is 1988 or 2011, the values each party stands for stays similar, however, changing minimally for the time period and the current economic and financial issues the country faces.
