Have the media report facts rather than running headlines.  The media can spin a story from it's original true meaning in the headline alone.

Well, the easiest honest way to do that is to learn it, then you'll really know.  Nothing worth doing can be shortened with the results untouched.  Claims are lies that one party hopes are true.

For some it's:\n\nGrand old Party \nGod's own Party or even\nGet out and Push \n\nFor others like me it's:\n\nGovernment of the People\n\nThis latest description is most closely associated with the republican theme that the people can best govern themselves.

Teach simplicity to the children,\nDo not vote for voracious politicians, and\nParticipate in rallies against corruption.

You need to get the word out, thats the most important thing and what the organization supports. You can do this with flyers or the computer  or phone calls.You could also contact the political leaders or members of parliment in your community as well. Speak to teachers and churches, you know, things like that and Iam sure you will find the resources you need...Good luck

"The Democratic Party is one of the two political parties forming a useless oligarchy in the United States."\n\nSorry, I'm very cynical. Perhaps you could choose one particular issue, such as their stance on abortion or the death penalty, and provide some background as to why they decided to be pro or con. Either that, or give a synopsis of their views on a few different issues and then provide an overall opinion of their mindset - that could be your opening line. Maybe you could try explaining why the Democrats seem to appeal more to the young.

The Republican and Democratic parties are so big and their bases are so broad, that their are hardly any issues that they can all agree on.  Usually it is based on the views of specific candidates for those parties, for that you can go to their websites to see where they stand on issues.

GET THE MOST VOTES.\n\nBut seriously, there are different stategies for a primary vs a general. \nIn a primary, you are usually aiming towards the core voters in your party, who tend to be more extreme than the general electorate. You need to spell out the differences rather shaprly with your opponent, even though you may not differ all that much on key issues. A primary campaign is more of a "red meat" campaign, where you probably throw more punches toward your opponent.\n\nGeneral elections - You have to appeal to a broader group of people, and you have to be likable. People do not vote for someone they do not like (Aside from Nixon).\nYou still have to spell out differences with your opponent, but blunt your hard edges.\n\nThe key thing, sad to say, is MONEY. About 90 percent of the time, the candidate with more cash is the candidate who wins. More money equals more media, more staff, mor everything.\n\nWell, those are some basic ideas without knowing what office you're running for in which party.

I would say that the two-party system is certainly on the way to becoming obsolete. You have two extremes on everything. What is needed is a centrist/moderate party that could have a stand that is more moderate.

remember all the promises ALL politions make?  how many are ever accomplished?\n\nall politicians have to say what you want to hear to get elected.  this isnt a novel concept, its politics.

I lose faith in political parties all the time.  Politics (like any other human endeavor) is fraught with human frailty.  Anytime human nature is part of the formula, it can get messy.
