Thread: The Constitution Party

http://www.constitutionparty.com/

So, someone tell me about the constitution party. Between democrats, republicans, and independents voting for McCain --> I need to get a better perspective.

Against illegal immigration. Against NAFTA, WTO, UN and all forms of globalism. Against Iraq War, and all other nation building. Socially conservative. Pro Christian. Would eliminate the IRS, and replace it with a tariff based revenue system.

I'm from Mississippi. The local version of the constitution party looks a bit...questionable.

I like them in principle, Havent really looked into them yet, but I need to find a home.

The Constitution Party ...Aaron Russo was a member of that party. It is an offshoot of the Libertarian Party. The Libertarian Party is third largest in the USA. I am starting a branch here in my county. You might want to look into that also.

"The Libertarian Party has long recognized the importance of allowing free and open immigration, understanding that this leads to a growing and more prosperous America. We condemn the xenophobic immigrant bashing that would build a wall around the United States. At the same time, we recognize that the right to enter the United States does not include the right to economic entitlements such as welfare. The freedom to immigrate is a freedom of opportunity, not a guarantee of a handout."

No, I don't think I fit here, either.

Immigration

"We affirm the integrity of the international borders of the United States and the Constitutional authority and duty of the federal government to guard and to protect those borders, including the regulation of the numbers and of the qualifications of immigrants into the country.

Each year approximately one million legal immigrants and almost as many illegal aliens enter the United States. These immigrants - including illegal aliens - have been made eligible for various kinds of public assistance, including housing, education, Social Security, and legal services. This unconstitutional drain on the federal Treasury is having a severe and adverse impact on our economy, increasing the cost of government at federal, state, and local levels, adding to the tax burden, and stressing the fabric of society. The mass importation of people with low standards of living threatens the wage structure of the American worker and the labor balance in our country.

We oppose the abuse of the H-1B and L-1 visa provisions of the immigration act which are displacing American workers with foreign.

We favor a moratorium on immigration to the United States, except in extreme hardship cases or in other individual special circumstances, until the availability of all federal subsidies and assistance be discontinued, and proper security procedures have been instituted to protect against terrorist infiltration.

We also insist that every individual group and/or private agency which requests the admission of an immigrant to the U.S., on whatever basis, be required to commit legally to provide housing and sustenance for such immigrants, bear full responsibility for the economic independence of the immigrants, and post appropriate bonds to seal such covenants.

The Constitution Party demands that the federal government restore immigration policies based on the practice that potential immigrants will be disqualified from admission to the U.S. if, on the grounds of health, criminality, morals, or financial dependence, they would impose an improper burden on the United States, any state, or any citizen of the United States.

We oppose the provision of welfare subsidies and other taxpayer-supported benefits to illegal aliens, and reject the practice of bestowing U.S. citizenship on children born to illegal alien parents while in this country.

We oppose any extension of amnesty to illegal aliens. We call for the use of U.S. troops to protect the states against invasion.

We oppose bilingual ballots. We insist that those who wish to take part in the electoral process and governance of this nation be required to read and comprehend basic English as a precondition of citizenship. We support English as the official language for all governmental business by the United States."

Sounds good.

So will you be voting for them?

I would have back in 2004. I wonder if Michael Parutka is running again...I was going to vote for him, SERIOUSLY. I saw this mess coming back in 04. I just missed it because I had to work OT, and raced home, but they closed the polls early
