But the purpose of the Constitution Party is to offer conservatives a presidential choice other than "R."

True. But if only a Democrat and a Republican wound up in a national election, I would vote Republican. Or if it was obvious that the Constitution Party candidate could absolutely NOT be elected. My purpose in joining the party now is to work to make sure it becomes viable and that one day its candidates WILL be top of the ballet.

Here is something from their platform. For 'equal time', I'll also later try to see what the GOP says specifically:

"No government may legalize the taking of the unalienable right to life without justification, including the life of the pre-born; abortion may not be declared lawful by any institution of state or local government - legislative, judicial, or executive. The right to life should not be made dependent upon a vote of a majority of any legislative body. In addition, Article IV of the Constitution guarantees to each state a republican form of government. Therefore, although a Supreme Court opinion is binding on the parties to the controversy as to the particulars of the case, it is not a political rule for the nation. Roe v. Wade is an illegitimate usurpation of authority, contrary to the law of the nation's Charter and Constitution. It must be resisted by all civil government officials, federal, state, and local, and by all branches of the government - legislative, executive, and judicial. We affirm both the authority and duty of Congress to limit the appellate jurisdiction of the Supreme Court in all cases of abortion in accordance with the U.S. Constitution, Article III, Section 2. ....Finally, we also oppose all government "legalization" of euthanasia, infanticide and suicide. "

"R" had better not forget that.

They're also involved in state and local elections, and have run candidates in them. Descriptions are on their website, along with links to state parties.
