I'm very much in support of public funding, however we do have public funding right now, it's just not enough to really campaign with. Oh and BTW that post was like from last Decemember lol, I haven't been with SPUSA for ages.

The website names the two major parties, of course, but many third parties also. It provides links to all party websites that are available. If any one knows of any other political parties that are not listed on this website, please add them to this thread. Thank you. | This is a fun one, not on that site.

They want to gradually extend US borders until the entire planet is under US political hegemony...Heh. Like THAT'S gonna happen...

Current Mood: | Re: A List of the Many Political Parties So many interesting parties, though I must say that I find it suprising that there are so many different Socialist parties in existance. You would think that they would be able to stop arguing about who's more of a communist nut between Lenin, Marx, and Trotsky long enough to band together and perhaps accumulate roughly 25,000 votes nationwide (I believe the exact number garned for socialist parties combined was 25,120).
I also got a kick out of the Pansexual Peace Party. I would probably join if it were at all active.

Current Mood: | Re: A List of the Many Political Parties There are quite a few very different trends in socialism. there are way more than 25,000 socialist voters, and plus, socialists and communists DONT vote as a rule, because nothing is accomplished from it. If voting made a fundamental difference, it would be banned. No matter who wins an election, it'll be backed by a variety of corporations, its candidates will be upper class, and its politics will be the same but with a tiny adjustment in approach. The minute a party that does threaten the system does becomes large and influential, like for example, the Black Panther Party, its members are locked up, shot in their homes, tortured and etc.. |

| Re: A List of the Many Political Parties The republican party presidential candidates battled in Des Moines, Iowa, Wednesday. With polls showing Mike Huckabee as the new frontrunner all eyes were on him. Was his performance enough to keep his lead? Hear debate and opinion from all sides on SIRIUS Patriot and SIRIUS Left.
many thanks!
