I got a laugh out of the American Nazi Party.



I don't know if I'd rather cry, or be furious that people still believe in the ideals that "Aryan" people are the supreme people.

Pat Buchanan has been making the talk show rounds saying pretty much the same thing while hawking his new "book"

True, but this is because all third parties are small and can't grow because they can't campaign. They can't campaign because they don't get corporate donations an aren't puppet candidates. My party SPUSA, has about 15,000 people but most people don't even know it exsists.

The thing about politics in America Nowadays is that for the majority of people it isn't a candidates qualifications or platform but his looks his height his speeches and how flashy his campaign is.

Public funding of elections would open up the field for more parties. It would also let the politicians spend more time GOVERNING instead of fundraising. One other benefit would be a substantial reduction in the vast power the lobbyists hold over the politicians.

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.
 
Here is a website that lists the many Political Parties.

Politics1 - Guide to American Political Parties

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.
Expansionist Party of the United States

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

the 99 percentile of democrats and republicans are what gives the other 1% of political parties a bad name.
 
I agree, there are two mayor parties that put all the possibilities on themselves. There is now way an independent or a different party can show itself unless there is a civil war. But, the worse part is that almost all minor parties are very radical, there aren't many centrist or half-democratic, half-republican parties, that would be great.
 
I recommend libertarians quit their party and join the

Normally I'm not impressed with third parties, but I've read their platform; this one has a compelling grasp of the issues, especially foreign policy: their theory is all aggression toward America derives from being angry and stressed, so get everyone in the United Nations to light a joint and chill out and everything will be fine.

That is the point of the 110th Senate - Run all you want, even get elected, the "Wisdom of Solomon" dictates you will be counted as a Democrat or a Republican. Its all One Party.

This is great. I always viewed myself as completely independent but after reading these descriptions I suppose I'm a libertarian with the exception that I support a strong military

More or less the same for me. I have more symphathy for the Libertarians than for the two big parties. However I consider myself 33% Democratic, 33% Republican and 33% Libertarian.
 
More more. we need more. K now lets see. what if they all got on the ballot. Neat it should be easuier for them to.

I definitely favor that policy.

In fact, I think every American should get, by the government, either a once-a-week ration of recreational drugs or a once-a-week coupon to visit a prostitute, male or female as the preference of the coupon holder may be.

If more people had a little bit more fun, and allowed others to have a little bit more fun, the world would be a better place.

Neopaleoprogressivist Party, '12!
 
True but then again, the Democrats and Republicans each run a very diverse set of candidates. Anyone can run in a primary, and they usually do.

of course since success in this country is decided by the money 90% of the time, and that is controlled by the incumbents 99.9% of the time, we only get 2 choices which satisfy about 9% of us which is really close to congressional approval rating. the number one reason to vote republican is because democrats scare you, the number one reason to vote democrat is because the republicans scare you. the number one reason not to vote is both parties scare you. now you're starting to see the state of things.
