Re: The Grand New Party
So, I think I have laid out what I would consider a basic platform for an opposition party:
Increase State's Rights and Responsibilities - Eliminate "Federal Bribery" laws - or laws where the Federal government forces a State action by withholding funding if the State does not act in accordance with Federal mandates - Place Responsibility for Education at the State Level by disbanding the Dept of Ed - Same with others as said earlier Reduce Federal Obligations and Authority - bring cabinet positions and Federal policy in line with the ideals of the Constiution - reduce/eliminate campaign on morality based issues (ie abortion/death penalty) and push for more aggressive campaigns based on limited govt. Return the Military to a Defense First posture - in a responsible manner draw down the standing army and increase the role of the Reserve Army. - increase intelligence assets - maintain air and naval capabilities Obviously this is a shell platform, But here are my questions: a) what level of support would this platform find in the undecided mobs b)what would your ideal platform include/not include (70Chip-my thesis for the my GVPT 600 class is tomorrow so I have slacked on work today )
