Ping...
For the record, I’m the chairman of the AIP.
Are you also the client?
Are you also their candidate for president?
Ooops. Meant previous comment to EV.
Although I think you would make an extremely good candidate also.
I extremely mean that.
(This thread is going to extremes!)
I’m sure this is a dumb question, but is the AIP different than just being registered ‘independent’?
Sounds like what the Republican Party USE to be...
Where exactly is this in the platform on the AIP home page?
In the area of national defense, wherein do you differ from the constitution party, the latter of which appears isolationist?
As Ronald Reagan opposed and defeated the designs and desire of the Soviet Union to dominate the world and place it under the tyranny of their Evil Empire, we oppose the Islamic extremists. This opposition is not based in opposition to their religion, but in a complete rejection of their political ideology and actions. Since the first principle of America is the protection of innocent human life, an ongoing state of war exists between us and any who would use acts of terrorism targeted at innocent civilians to forward their political aims.
We completely oppose any action that surrenders the political and economic sovereignty of the United States and its people, and support the immediate restoration of that sovereignty wherever it has been eroded.
We support the immediate securing and continuous vigilant maintenance of our sovereign territory and borders. We oppose any private or governmental action that rewards illegal entry into the United States in any way, and demand speedy and full enforcement of our laws concerning all such activities.
AIP’s candidate for POTUS= Alan Keyes
Pretty much.
What will Alan Keyes actually do to implement this ideology?
It is different. Especially in California, where you can register as an AIP voter.
However, in most states you can't register AIP at the moment.
Two things are important to remember about the way the new party is being set up, though:
1. We don't care much which party you're registered with. We care about whether you agree with America's founding principles.
2. America's Independent Party will be endorsing candidates based on those principles, not on mere party labels.
Thank you.
What will Alan Keyes actually do to implement this ideology?
Well, it's actually grassroots regular folks who are building the party. Alan has offered his brilliant mind and his vast experience in the service of helping build the party into the new home of conservatism.
I'm thankful for that. He's a truly great American.
By the way, I’m registered as an independent in my home state. Gave up my Republican registration some months ago.
Uhmm...no.
I don’t know what that question means.
you won’t be endorsing any Democrats, will you?
Probably very few.
Very, very few.
But, if there were an instance where there actually was one that had a proven record of standing for America’s Principles, sure.
Good luck finding one, though.
