text: I don't see much difference between Republicans and Democrats on those matters. 
  Social justice is the aim of both parties, the methods of achieving it differ. The Church does not endorse any political philosophy in respect of this. Neither party favours racial discrimination nor going to war needlessly and the Church teaches that war can be just in certain circumstances.
  Where the Republicans are closer to Catholic teaching is on moral issues: abortion and euthanasia in particular. The Democratic Party officially rejects most of the proscriptions of Catholic morality.
