Could someon explain to me (like i'm five) the differences between the Republicans and Democrats?

I just never really understood the different parties.

In the US, the Democrats typically believe in more liberal policies. They tend to be pro-choice (support abortion rights), support the legalization of same-sex marriage, support government benefits like Social Security and Medicare/Medicaid, and tend to lean toward larger government.

Republicans typically believe in more conservative policies. They tend to be pro-life (anti-abortion), oppose the legalization of same-sex marriage, mostly oppose what they call "government handouts", and lean toward smaller government.
