FALCON PARTY - Philosophy and Platform

Philosophy

America

The US Constitution is the finest and most enlightened governing document in the history of nations. The blessings of the Almighty were present as the men from the various former colonies crafted a system of republican rule that struck the fundamental balance between God-given individual freedoms, the autonomy of the States, and the necessity of a limited, but strong triumvirate federal government. The FALCON party recognizes not only the brilliance of our Constitution, but also the solemn duty to abide by its provisions. The Founders provided a mechanism to change the stipulations held within the Constitution, and the Congress, the Executive Branch, the Courts and the States can not add or subtract from it, except through the Amendment Process.

The preservation of this nation is our paramount duty. Evil has always been and will always be. We will allow no nation to threaten us with impunity. Our military strength must always be capable of defeating multiple, simultaneous threats, whether those threats are from the belligerence of another nation, multiple nations allied together, terror organizations, or any combination thereof. We shall maintain the strength sufficient for any adversary to desire peace instead of war, and to vanquish any foolish enough to choose war. We shall strive for peaceful and cordial relationships with other nations who seek peaceful and cordial relations. But we will never turn a blind eye to despotism, tyranny and communism and will continue to prod such regimes to offer freedom to their peoples and inspire peoples living in such states to demand it.

America is the “last, best hope” on earth, and we can never allow the Europeanization to spread to our shores. Unfettered political correctness, socialism, militant secularism, feminism and the consolidation of power into the hands of bureaucrats have neutered most European nations to

Turning and turning in the widening gyre
The falcon cannot hear the falconer;
Things fall apart; the centre cannot hold;
Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world,
The blood-dimmed tide is loosed, and everywhere
The ceremony of innocence is drowned;
The best lack all conviction, while the worst
Are full of passionate intensity.

Yeats

Catchy name. Is this for the Duncan Hunter refugees only, or is anyone welcome?

Of course everyone is welcome that wants to pursue their agenda for the most part.

When an Indie party has as one of its main issues the overhauling of our tax sytem, I start thinking “S-T-E-V-E F-O-R-B-E-S!” Forbes is no conservative. He’s just a greedy Wall St. bastard. It also make me think “L-I-B-E-R-T-A-R-I-A-N!”, NOT conservative.

Leave the tax system alone. It’s been working and to some degree, it protects small business (with deductions of all kinds). I’m a very small businessman. I want those “protections” PROTECTED! No “fair tax” for me!

Just an observation but don’t you think Eagle would be better for conservatives?

Love the PC part of the platform

Yep. You got it, Scrat...that and a super-tough platform section on the Invasion...

Then we could say, “The EAGLE has landed!”

Nicely done. I agree with most of it.

I would add specific verbiage to cover the inefficiency and waste in the military and related areas (VA, etc.) and I’m not too keen on the strict abortion stance, but overall this party is better than any of the rest. . .

Thanks!

Good for you!

The rest of us want our confiscatory tax rates dropped from the current total of 40+ (Fed, State, County, City) dropped to something more fair.

Maybe we can make it voluntary so that you can go ahead and happily pay your higher level of taxes while the rest of us fight for a lower tax rate.

Does that work for you?

OK....but there’s already a Constitution Party and your platform is indistinguishable. Why not join an existing party with an existing infrastructure?

There will NEVER be a “fair tax”, just as there will never be any Soc. Sec. “reform” because both issues are highly charged and the country is split on them. While I welcome some sane SS reform, I DON’T welcome a “fair tax” that will destroy my business and other small businesses. Sorry.

That is really cool. As a fourth generation Icelander, born in Canada, naturalized US citizen, I think that is great!!

I seem to remember doing a wood carving for a craft project once. I had found an old viking symbol of a bird, I thought it was an eagle, that the vikings used in the old days. Could it have been a falcon instead?

Nah, the Constitution party is for the birds. They think like Ron Paul does when it comes to the war on terror.
