“Two visions of the future, two fundamentally different ways of governing– their government of pessimism, fear, and limits, or ours of hope, confidence, and growth. Their government sees people only as members of groups. Ours serves all the people of America as individuals.”
Ronald Reagan

Things are pretty crazy right now in D.C. The Republican National Party Platform is 67 pages long. We've condensed it by sifting out the "we will support/oppose" statements, but there are still a LOT of issues confronting our nation. Choose the top 10 you'd like addressed in the next two years.
Did you know the state of Florida has had a Republican governor and a Republican majority in both state houses for the last 20 years? Tell them what issues you'd like them to work on!
It's hard translating the Republican National Party Platform into issues that local government can tackle, but we've created a survey that gives it the old college try!

Our two party system began even before the U.S. Constitution was written. We have always, as a nation, disagreed strongly between those who want more centralized power, and those who want de-centralized power focused on the States and the People.
It should be plain to ALL by now what happens when the central government (Washington, DC) gains too much power. It should also be plain to all WHICH PARTY wants more centralized power.
The Republican Party Platform believes strongly in reducing the power of the central government and leaving decision-making to the States and to the People. However, power corrupts, and our Republican representatives often stray from that platform. As a Republican voting in the primaries, you can correct that problem. As an independent, you cannot.
Take our survey and decide for yourself how your values line up with the values of the Republican Party. If they mostly line up, use the power of the primaries to hold your representatives accountable.
The Democrat Party of today has abandoned its faithful working class base for urban elites committed to a socialist and global government agenda.
Conservative Democrats have traditionally joined with minor party Republicans to accomplish a fiscally and morally responsible agenda. It’s not really as big a leap to the Republican Party as you think.
