Trying to get a platform together this weekend and type it up. Post your ideas. I am thinking of an iron clad platform written in bill of rights format so it’s easy to understand and leaves little to interpretation. One major party rule I would like to stress is any candidate must adhere to the platform or be removed from the party. I’ll post my other thoughts in the comments. If the thread gets long sort by new comments in case some of the points have long replies. I’m so energized by this opportunity and really excited that this place is the groundwork.

Another thought: open membership. Make it as easy as possible for people to join and vote on candidates and internal positions without going through the traditional voting system. It would also allow us to primary candidates in the legacy parties. Once we reach critical mass, everyone mass registers as patriots.

We cannot be the next Bull Moose or Independent party, i.e. a speedbump in history of government's expansion.
