AP US Government
Unit 4 – American Political Ideologies and Beliefs
Topic 4.8
How might changing demographics in the U.S., such as an ageing population, affect future political ideologies?
There may be greater emphasis on retirement, healthcare, and social security issues in party platforms.
Parties will focus primarily on youth issues like college tuition fees and job opportunities for recent graduates.
Changing demographics would have no effect on party ideology formulation as parties stick rigidly to their traditional stances.
Parties would discard traditional ideologies completely to attract new voters.
