Mann Americas foundation is the representative power of the people. The representative power of the people is voiced through th two party system. The two party system is divided into party organization. Each party has a national leader or a national chair- man and a national committee representing the 49 states and the territories of the United States. Each state and territory then has a similar organization with a state leader or state chairman with representation from each county. Each county then has a county leader or chairman and committee comprising representation from each legislative district A similar organization exists in each legislative 'district, to the voting district where representation is from each individual home. The political organization is patterned very closely with the organization now existing in government Why? The answer is obvious. By this type of pattern every person has a voice , INCLUDING you! There are some who would say that all these voices create confusion and a tower of Babel. However, the purpose of Democracy is to take the goodness in each man and make him better. By giving him the opportunity to utilize his best potentials, the group or the majority benefits. In the Communist party system, the bad points of a man are used to destroy him thus allowing control of the majority by a few individuals. In a Democracy, as demonstrated, the best of everybody is shared by everybody. The purpose of organization is to stimulate and use this Best, throughout the nation. Of course we have people who do not capitalize on their best talents, but because of this organization that worst in people is kept to a minimum. In tiie Republican party a special effort is made to maintain indivkhialism. True, this does create problems, but the individual is also trained in tolerance and understanding of others. Thus the principles of freedom axe enhanced and kept dive in the Republican party. There is today a Concerted effort directed at both major parties to split and drive them into extreme right and left wings. This force hopes to create out of this split a coalition third part. : This thud party could then control the two weaker major parties. We will have lost our voice of freedom! What can the two major parties do about it? The people in the Republican and 'the Democratic parties, must learn the meaning of party loyalty and the effectiveness of . ; . party organization. The Communist party has 50,000 registered members. In the recent battle over the Civil Bights Bill the Communist party put 150,000 letters on the desks of senators and representatives ! to the U. S. Congress. AH supporting it Why? because this is a controversial issue and one that can cause us embarrassment and harassment internally as well as giving a false international picture. However, this example was given to show the strength of organization, although few in numbei j: Both major parties have ten times that number but do we adhere ' to party discipline in keeping that organization strong and ef--. ' fective? : Only you as a Republican can answer that. Depending on your answer, depends the strength and . effectiveness of the two party system.
