The TeaParty movement is the largest single political effort ever mounted by the American people in over sixty years in an effort to bring about common sense reform and change in our political system and its elected officials. And it is none-too-late!

The American Reform Party is a staunch supporter of the Movement across America and wants to see it succeed as an independent, non-party, movement for stripping government of its control and power over the people and restoring basic common sense principles to our governmental system. However, should the Tea Party continue to operate under its current disjointed leadership and without a clearly defined plan and united voice for all to follow, the movement is in severe jeopardy of failing.

As in any movement there is a point in time when a collective decision must be reached by its leadership and supporters to clearly define its position and gain the additional support and momentum needed to insure the success of its objectives and goals. That time is "NOW" for the TeaParty. The TeaParty can no longer afford to act merely a disjointed movement but must now provide a well defined plan and goal its wants to achieve for both government and the representatives it seeks to elect. In other words, the movement must start walking, talking and acting like an organized political party with a single united voice and political platform of views and objectives they wish to achieve. Without a clearly stated plan, no one, including the press, knows how to properly characterize and explain the movement to others who would be more than willing to throw their support behind it. Like it or not, neither the liberal press nor the people to whom they appeal or a less caring populous are able to follow or support a disjointed, undefined movement.

To be successful you need to beat government at its own game. You need to use the same or similar tactics while using the press to get you opinions and position out daily otherwise you loose. Keep in mind, the press and existing major political parties get 365 days of press coverage expressing their views, positions and actions. The Tea Party can achieve this same visibility by organizing nationally.

Without a clear approach a united voice or a published platform offering a clear common sense path for like minded Americans to follow, the movement will fail and fall flat on its face in the up coming mid-term and National elections. Without a well defined position there is no way in which a legitimate candidate sharing the TeaParty views and concerns can align themselves or that sympathetic voters can fully support. Lack of a defined platform further allows undesirable candidates or conservative radicals to capitalize on the movements efforts potentially resulting  in a disastrous end. The movement will be used and abused by all contending parties and their candidates, or worse, unscrupulous independent candidates claiming to be TeaParty supporters being elected. The movement will continue to be attacked and painted by the Liberal Democratic Party as a subversive, racists organization while the Progressive Republicans will align themselves with the movement by saying it will remain conservative to regain their political control only to cast aside these basic principles to perpetuate the same progressive out of control government spending and power created by both parties over the past sixty years.

We all need to get our act together. We all need to be responsible for keeping our government and elected representatives accountable and in check. We need to have assurances and agreements from those we elect with a penalty or a process in which to remove them if they fail to perform as agreed. We need true reform in the Electoral process. We need true reform in the legislative process. We need to control and cut government spending. But above all, we need a return to the basic fundamentals of the Constitution and a well controlled government by the people with common sense and integrity in our appointed representatives, all of which we believe the TeaParty stands for.

The American Reform Party would like to invite the Tea Party leadership and supporters of the movement to review our Independent Conservative common sense approach, position and platform that will bring about the right change and results in our government that benefits all Americans regardless of party.
