I propose renaming the two major political parties to
reflect their modern leanings, including their positions and actions. Additionally,
I propose the creation of a new party because the existing parties need competition. The two major parties, together, have a
monopoly on all major offices in the United States. We all know that monopolies take advantage of
their customers and are frowned upon in a capitalist society. I would also advocate for some changes to the
current political mascots and for the creation of a mascot for the proposed new
party.
I propose that the Democratic Party become the Collusionist Party
because they collude with big business although they like to pretend that they
don’t. The Collusionists support for the
TTP treaty, the Dark Act, and the recent “Monsanto Rider” in the Toxic
Substances Control Act (TSCA), which takes Monsanto off the hook for liability
for poisoning a town, are just three examples that prove that they do collude with
(and are sold to) big business. The Collusionists also collude within their
party and with local officials. An
example of this is their effort to ram their choice of presidential candidates
down the public’s throat. They do not
want the voters, even voters from their party, to decide. They would prefer to collude, break rules, and commit voting fraud to impose their will on the people. The
donkey as their mascot will not change but will now be referred to as a jackass
because everyone knows that 50% of donkeys are jackasses.
The Republicans will become the Obstructionist Party because
they are best at obstructing progress. Since they
are so good at ignoring the elephant in the room, the elephant mascot will
become an ostrich. Like an ostrich with
its head in the sand, pretending to itself that it cannot be seen, Obstructionists
like to pretend that they represent the American people instead of big business
and big donors. They also like to
pretend things like climate change are not real and that our climate is not
impacted by human activity when 99% of scientists agree it is on both
counts. Additionally, they stick their heads in the
sand when they think that We The People don’t know that they are not following
the Constitution (which they purport to revere) when they do things like refusing
to even consider a Supreme Court nominee from a duly elected president. No matter their rhetoric, their
obstructionism in this case is primarily caused by the fact that they do not
like the president nominating the candidate, and that the president is not also
an Obstructionist. They want more Obstructionists
on the Supreme Court.
For the new party, I propose the moniker the “Truth Party”
because America has a great need to hear the truth. We so rarely hear the truth from either
existing party, or from the media. America
has long needed a third major party. The
Truth Party will be the party of truthfulness and integrity. There will be stringent rules limiting who is
allowed into the party and who is not.
Liars and those who accept large campaign contributions from big
businesses, the very rich, and Super-PACs need not apply. Truth Party members will be people whom we
know are truly fighting for We The People and for our country. The Truth Party will adopt as their mascot the
owl. The owl has long been the symbol of
wisdom. The owl also has the ability to not only turn it's head completely around, it can fly high above the land to see and report what is really happening, no matter
what the jackasses and ostriches would tell the public. Owls are also a type of falcon much like our
national symbol, the Bald Eagle. I
nominate Bernie Sanders and Elizabeth Warren as the heads of the new Truth Party. Tulsi Gabbard and others like her should also have
posts of distinction.
