Chili Ron 941 Posted January 21 Share Posted January 21 Howdy, The one thing about political parties is suppose party A is for issue 1 and 2 and against issue 3 and 4. Suppose party B is for issue 3 and 4 and against issue 1 and 2. Suppose I am for issue 1 and 4 and against issue 2 and 3. Which party should I identify with? Im serious about this. It has bugged me my whole voting life. And just for the record I was the only person who voted absentee in my company in the 68 election....Tricky Dick vs Happy Huuby. And just where in the constitution are political parties mentioned/established/defined?????????? Best CR 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Red Gauntlet , SASS 60619 912 Posted January 21 Share Posted January 21 Political parties are private combinations organized to seek election to offices of state established by the Constitution. As Ronald Sime once said, "All political parties are in some sense conspiracies against the Commonwealth." 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
