Laws of the Party:
-- the Party shall consist of members ordered on a bi-cameral operation: seniority with level-of-activity measure. Elements of both shall be immutable (i.e. new members who are extremely active shall receive elevated status - note that status refers in no way to social or other ego-related status). Contributions shall only receive level-of-activity credit on a sliding scale as the accuracy and cleverness are graded by the neighborhoods where they are graded.
-- the Party members shall be compulsorily organized into their actual physical neighborhoods - precedence is set (information dissemination and other-wise) in the thirty geographically closest other party members, then relative to population level within the State border, then to bordering States, then to the grand juries of Federal districts.
-- in mirror of the U.S. Court Districts, grand juries will be composed of a number of the highest ranking party members who live in that district, the number of which will be no less than 7 1/2 % of the population of party members in that district.
-- it is the privilege of each party member to comment on Party news and discuss and debate the points. The approval or disapproval of news will greatly influence the production of news.
-- Party members who lack internet connectivity may make comments, debates, and discussion points via USPS at their own expense; however, don't think that you'll be able to not have a computer forever.
-- Party members are required to: vote, read the Daily Information sheet, absorb Party background literature, and register one new voter per year (as seen above, in Party Planks, failure to do so results in the next year's new voter requirement to two).
-- Party members are also required to become certified to register voters, take CPR/First Aid, have gardens, live off the grid as much as possible, and have frequent parties.
-- Party members are required to fly American flags on Christmas, MLK Jr. Day, and Jefferson's Birthday, along with any other special days Party members feel is appropriate.
-- Party members are not allowed to receive money or give money, for any activity even remotely related to their Party affiliation, including but not limited to speaking events, book sales, media articles/pieces, photography, modeling with Party logos (including anything in the color Orange), or making votes or discussion comments in favor of some outside force paying a weak-willed Party member to curry favor and sway debate.
-- Party members must solemnly swear to do their best for god/s and their country, to obey party law, to keep themselves physically fit, mentally awake, and morally correct. Following this, a Party member is loyal, trustworthy, kind, helpful, courteous, cheerful, thrifty, brave, clean, and reverent.
Some final thoughts before I close this chapter for a little while (can't start a good political party if I don't graduate with my Math B.A.!):
we aren't just at A crossroads, we're always at a crossroads. we aren't just dissatisfied and disenfranchised from the current political get-up, we're humiliated and disgusted by its filth. we won't follow anyone but the most divine and enlightened leaders and we're willing to work through everyone on the field, through all the information in the field, and even be patient as it seems everything crumbles around us, to find out who that leader is. We are going to be working for the fulfillment of that dream, just as we keep Martin Luther King Jr.'s dreams and words in our prayers every day.
Most of all, we are sure of our cause, and with the surety of knowing our feelings and beliefs are not the misguided notions the other side says they are, we are confident that history will prove us right, even as it destroys our adversaries for their lack of commitment to the ideal of objective/subjective Truth that lies both in the mind of a scholar, and in the heart of a noble soul. Everything that has happened till now has led to this moment, when technology, culture, education, affluence, progress, and courage can combine to usher in a new age of mankind. The lost sheep that compose the emerging T-party show loyalty only to those they are told to show loyalty to; we will inform ourselves. They toil tirelessly in the name of the status quo; we'll toil tirelessly to bring change. They laugh at the lies all around them because they're given one singular vision of the world; we'll laugh at the lies around us because we see so many other ways for the world to be. They unabashedly preach that theirs is the only way; we'll expertly and confidently advocate for what we see as the only way. They invoke personal responsibility and use it to divest their responsibility to the masses; we'll invoke personal responsibility to become shepherds of peace, justice, and prosperity. They will stop at nothing to see their dogmatic agenda subsume the modern political debate; we will stop at nothing to see our pragmatic agenda subsume the farce of modern political debate.

first comes the comics, or comic singular.
next comes the body count headlines of those suffering from military or other violence - equally represented will be any good accomplished through the sacrifice of the soldiers and civilians we're going to try desperately to take out of harms way.
then comes the Politics, first the Fed, then the States, and when appropriate the small communities making big differences.
finally is the Children and the Hope. End on a good note. On the back is all the other comics, or just beautiful images captured by Party Members or friends of Party Members.
