Platform of the All American Partie - a Short List
- A Utopian Platform of totally idealistic, unrealistic, and sensible goals.
1. We are all in it together.
2. There is no time left to argue, fuss, or fight.
3. We must get Busy and hang together or as Ben Franklin said,
"If we do not hang together, we will surely hang separately."
4. We have too many enemies abroad to keep fighting amongst ourselves.
If we do not pull our heads out of the sand, Russia and China will make
sure there is no USA to bother them about human rights.
5. If we do not hammer out some working agreements among all segments
of our society, we will not have a country left, or right.
6. What is great about this Nation is We Celebrate our Differences and We
agree that everyone has a right to worship their own religion and to
celebrate the Creator.
7. Nothing stands between you and the Creator or between you and your
choice of religious belief.
8. The Founding Fathers wisely chose to keep government and religion
separate, but that does not mean we cannot respect and even celebrate
all faith traditions.
9. There is only one Human race on the planet. In the USA we have proved
we can all stand together for family values, religious values, and
human rights as embodied in our Constitution and our Bill of Rights.
10. Without a belief in anything sacred or holy about life, no nation can stand.
A house divided against itself also cannot stand.
11. Sexual orientation is a person's private business, but for children to
develop normally, they should have a mother and a father, as is
evidenced by the rest of the living creatures on the planet.
12. Stop the war on Drugs and unclog the court system. All drugs should be
available to people who desire them. If they cannot use them
responsibly, shame on them. The drug cartels will fade away once
deprived of all the inflated profits they now make and use to undermine
society.
13. Insure our watersheds are not fowled or polluted with fertilizers, oil, or
chemicals.
14. We need to get to renewables as quickly as possible, before we fowl our
own nest any further, become embroiled in any other wars over oil, or
raise the mean temperatures any higher. Global climate change is real.
15. Our real enemies are not terrorists, but our ancient fears of the unknown.
Civilization is based on integrity and trust. Without cooperation and
community, the human race itself will not survive.
16. Nuclear power and other forms of concentrated and toxic power
sources are not worth the inherent risks involved. Nuclear plants and
radioactive materials need to be decommissioned and removed as
they reach the end of their useful life..
17. If most of these goals are not embraced willingly, we are setting ourselves
up for a totalitarian and Global new world order whose rule will be
worse than anything we have now.
18. All biodegradables should be processed and plowed back into the soil,
not put in our waterways. ( see #13 ) Trees and cover crops need
to be planted as widely as possible to retain the soil we have, retain
moisture, and help to protect waterways.
19. A nationwide system of municipal servers to provide secure public wifi
coverage throughout the country needs to be implemented, just as
REA in the 1930's was used to install electricity for most if not all
Americans. Public transit should be similarly equipped with wifi.
20. Americans of all stripes, colors, and beliefs need to look at
America...... and then look at the rest of the world, and decide
whether to try to prefect this Union or to move to somewhere else.
