Pinging to the FALCON website. (in its infancy, mind you)

Looks interesting.

I’ll be looking it over more carefully over the coming days......and beyond.

C’mon man. I know you were dissapointed when Hunter went belly up, but you’re better than this. Let the so called FALCON *cough* *cough* find another shill. You know better.

I fear a party named after a bird won’t be taken seriously, we need a third party simply named the Conservative party.

FALCON understands that “limited government” does not simply mean advocating lower taxes than what the Democrat Party proposes, but also entails a significantly smaller footprint for the necessary bureaucratic institutions, and the complete elimination of the unnecessary and unconstitutional bureaucratic institutions.

That's perfect.

It can never be US policy to allow a supra-national authority to have power to dictate the terms of our taxation, tariffs, incentives or domestic policy.

I assume this means the NAU advocates too. Nice.

Please add me to your ping list.

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

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

Love the PC part of the platform

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!

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

Fealty:
allegiance to feudal lord: the loyalty sworn to a feudal lord by a vassal or tenant - Encarta

a feudal tenant’s or vassal’s sworn loyalty to a lord. - Oxford Dictionary

1 a: the fidelity of a vassal or feudal tenant to his lord b: the obligation of such fidelity - Merriam-Webster

Fidelity to one's lord; the feudal obligation by which the tenant or vassal was bound to be faithful to his lord; fidelity; allegiance; faithfulness. - Wikitionary

1. the loyalty pledged by a vassal to a feudal lord and considered as binding. 2. faithfulness or loyalty. - Wordsmyth English Dictionary

1a. The fidelity owed by a vassal to his feudal lord. b. The oath of such fidelity. 2. Faithfulness; allegiance. - American Heritage Dictionary

1. a. fidelity to a lord. b. the obligation or the engagement to be faithful to a lord, usually sworn to by a vassal. 2. fidelity; faithfulness. - Infoplease Dictionary

I reckon that's enough examples. There are plenty of others.

Didn't our forefathers fight a long, bloody war to get away from fealty?

IMHO, why go with high-toned, symbolic, complicated names? "The FALCON Party" doesn't say anything. This is a startup operation. Keep the name simple, memorable and to the point.

If you asked me my political party affiliation and I replied, "The FALCON Party," would you know anymore than what you knew before you asked the question? If you asked my political party affiliation and I replied, "The Conservative Party," would you have at least a general idea of my political philosophy?

So how does this differ from the Constitution Party?

I can’t get over linking “Falcon” with the football team. I think it should be named after Stephen Decatur. Now there was a patriot for you! (”My country, right or wrong. May she always be right, but my country right or wrong!”). You can’t believe how much liberals hate that quote. They equate it with a mindset that they “feel” (God, they love that word — I’ll never use it again) is the one thing most wrong about America.
