History

 

Into the 21st Century, the Democratic Party can look back on a proud history — a history not just of a political organization but of a national vision. It is a vision based on the strength and power of millions of economically empowered, socially diverse and politically active Americans.

 

Almost 250 years ago, our Party's founders decided that wealth and social status were not an entitlement to rule. They believed that wisdom and compassion could be found within every individual and a stable government must be built upon a broad popular base.

 

The common thread of Democratic history, from Thomas Jefferson to Joe Biden, has been an abiding faith in the judgment of hardworking American families, and a commitment to helping the excluded, the disenfranchised and the poor strengthen our nation by earning themselves a piece of the American Dream.

 

While we have accomplished a great deal — as a nation and a community, we must continue to move forward. We must work to incorporate all Americans into the fabric of our nation. The Democratic Party is America's last, best hope to bridge the divisions of our country. In that regard, Freehold Borough is no different.

 

We will succeed as a nation and in Freehold Borough if we continue to govern by the same principles that have made America the greatest nation on earth — the principles of strength, inclusion and opportunity.

 

The Democratic Party in Freehold Borough is ready to take advantage of the opportunities we have and meet the challenges we face.
