Lincoln-Douglas debates defined the distinctions between the Democratic and Republican parties in the following ways:

Republicans (Lincoln): Supported the Wilmont Proviso, sought to ban slavery in new territory, believed Douglas feared a mixing of the races, believed there was a conspiracy to nationalize slavery and that Douglas was a part of it.

Democrats (Douglas): Supported "popular sovereignty" or the idea that local electorates should vote to decide if slavery should be allowed in their state, believed Lincoln was an abolitionist,

Lincoln-Douglas debate were a series of debates which tackled slavery and states rights issues. Abraham Lincoln was a republican candidate while Stephen Douglas was a democratic candidate.


Lincoln's view about slavery was very different from Douglas. Lincoln argued that slavery was a moral issue and should not be extended into new territories. He wants o stop geographical expansion of slavery, while Douglas believed that settlers have rights to vote on the matter of slavery in new territories. For him, slavery is not a moral problem and argued that United States is a white man's government.

The Armenian Parliament submitted 616 proposals for 2011 draft budget revision to the RA Government. Over 50% of them were put forward on behalf of the parliamentary factions. It should be noted that MPs’ proposals are hardly different – they are mostly requests for the construction or renovation of schools, streets, seminaries, centers of culture and so on. The Prosperous Armenia Party (PAP) submitted the most proposals, and the Government accepted 99% of them. To be precise, the only proposal that was declined is a request for funds for renovation of the school in Aigtek, Armavir region.
