Ideology Option 1
Changes in Partisan Views
Source: Gallup
A.
Identify one trend in political views by major political party as illustrated in the line charts.
B.
Describe a similarity or difference in political ideology by major political party, as illustrated in the line
charts.
C.
Draw a conclusion about that similarity or difference in political ideology by major political party as
illustrated in the line charts.
D.
Explain how the data in the line graphs could affect the policy making interactions between the president
and Congress.
A.
One trend in political views by a major political party as seen in the line charts is that over
the span of fourteen years the Republican Party has increasingly come to believe that the
Federal Government has too much power.
B.
A difference in political ideology by major political party as seen in the line chart
is that over the span of fourteen years the difference in the number of Republicans who believe
that the upper-income pay too little taxes has slightly decreased, while the number of
Democrats who believe the upper-income pay too little taxes has slightly increased.
C.
Based on the line graphs a conclusion that can be drawn
about the difference in ideologies by the two major political parties is that Republicans are
supporters of a more limited government, with over eighty percent of the Republicans in the
data agreeing that they hold too much power. Meanwhile the Democratic Party does not
necessarily favor a more limited government because they believe that the government has the
right to intervene on social and public policies, which is properly conveyed in the line chart
which shows that less than half of the Democrats agree that the federal government holds too
much power.
D. The data in the line chart could impact
policy decisions between Congress and the president based on the Republican Party’s belief
that the federal government already holds too much power. For example, the Republican Party
holds a slight majority in Congress, and with the most of them believing that the federal
government holds too much power they would be less likely to support policy decisions that
give the federal government too much power, effectively influencing policy making between the
executive branch and the legislative.
