The Importance of Party Affiliation

The Importance of Party Affiliation

Is Party affiliation a factor to consider when you vote?

The Republican Party is often being accredited with being the conservative party, while the Democratic Party carries the liberal label.  If you had to define the words, conservative and liberal as they apply to politics, could you?

Setting aside the tags attached to the parties, let's take a brief test of where they stand on the issues.

There are six political parties on the ballot this November; Republican, Democratic, US Taxpayers, Libertarian, Green and Natural Law.  Which of these parties are pro-life?  Which of the parties believe the answer to the problematic education system is more federal government spending?  Which of these parties are for smaller government?  Which of these parties are for constitutional (the law that governs government) adherence?  Which of these parties are for the retention of American sovereignty by opposing the European draw to the New World Order?

The next question we should consider is the one at the top of this page.  Does it matter with which party a candidate associates?  Let me ask it this way.  When you vote, do you consider the party affiliation?  When you are uncertain of the specific positions of a given candidate, do you consider the party with which he or she affiliates when you make your decision?

Would it surprise you to discover that the Republican Party and the Democratic Party,

·         are both pro-choice?

·         both desire to increase federal involvement in education?

·         are both for larger government?

·         both have no regard for the Constitution?

·         are both for the rapid advancement of the New World Order and one world government?

Don't believe it?  Let me prove it to you.  Attached is a flyer.  Consider it my personal invitation to attend a Town Hall meeting sponsored by the Allegan County US Taxpayers Party of Michigan.  Everyone in the 6th Congressional District, Allegan County and all others interested should attend this meeting. 

Mel Valkner, the USTPM candidate for the 6th District will be speaking on the subject of Restoring Liberty.  Come and meet Mel.  Learn of his positions on the issues before you vote.  I will be presenting "Issues, Party by Party".  This is a presentation in which I compare the platforms of the US Taxpayers Party, Republicans, Democrats and Libertarians, and show how each party stands on the issues.

Does party affiliation matter?  We think so.  That's why we hold our candidates accountable to the Constitution, the principles of the Declaration of Independence and our party platform.
