As a gringo living here and seeing how things are and learning from the forums here and also from the locals I would like to get people's opinions on creating a new political party. Of course one has to be a citizen of this fair country to be elected but that's in the works. If I don't run for any type of office at least I would like to be involved in the formation and platform stance.
The platform would be based on fiscal responsibility and change, creation of enforcing branches to support laws, transparent judicial and police branches, investment in infrastructure and it's maintenance and of course education. The appeal would be to the common people but don't worry - socialism is not an option.
I realize the challenges are going to be as follows:
1. Funding - poor people generally can barely afford to put food on the table.
2. Advertising - how do you get the word out if you can't buy air time?
3. Engage the disaffected common person - How does one make it "real" enough to them in order that they see the benefits and therefore give you their vote.
4. The current "establishment" - will one have to worry about getting "one in the back of the head" because one doesn't want to include the "powers that be".
5. Finding honest people - will one be able to find enough people who are willing to have the vision that to be part of change? Unlike the currrent system this party wouldn't be about what they will get out of it but what they can contribute.
Sincere Thanks,
Chip
