Political parties are like co-operative societies
Dalip Singh Wasan, Advocate.
After the invention of concept of democracy, political parties came into being or we can say the people who were politicians gave birth to this concept of democracy in the world. The politicians wanted their absorption and for that purpose they introduced the system of elections and then they established this voting system and when voting system was there, they needed candidates. The voters were already existing and they needed candidates. They formed the present party system. Some people joined together like people joining co-operative societies and they distributed the status amongst each other. Some were appointed as presidents, some as vice presidents, some general secretaries and some were enrolled as executive members. Others were enrolled as ordinary members.
They are the people who started taking places of rajas, maharajas, monarchs and then even the imperialists. They started election system and they are the people who enabled themselves to stand as candidates and all the people were converted as voters. We have noted that these people could take the position of rajas, maharajas, monarchs and the imperialists and the people at large became simple voters. At the time of elections these political parties came forward and started raising false and empty slogans and thus they could attract people and could get their votes. The people i.e. the political party which could win majority could form a government and the parties which lost or remained in minority, they formed opposition. In India, it is on record that there had been family rule, there had been party dictatorship and then individual autocracy. Now one party having majority has stopped and now the political parties are joining together in alliances and they are forming governments.
Most of the political parties have got no principles nor they are interested in the development of the country they rule. They just come forward with empty slogans and they win elections because most of the people in democracies are not properly educated and that is the reason they are not understanding what is hidden in the hearts of these politicians. They do not know that these politicians are not willing to become public servants and that is the reason, most of the elected governments just work in routine matter and they just pass time and then. Where political parties are not having any principles or basics with them, there the people just change the government and they start believing that they have done something great. But in reality they just change the set of people and the new set of people who occupy the seats of power and not better than those who are vacating the seats and that is the reason the governments go on without any progress in the country.
The people in politics have formed these co-operative societies and they have distributed seats amongst themselves. They are allowing others to enter the parties, but against admission fee and sometime they sell the party tickets and sometime they also sell the ministries. They divide the money they collect as per their own adjustments within the party and they are also sparing something for party fund.
We have noted that all these politicians with all their separate parties, they are one from heart and that is the reason they are taking seats of power by turns. They may be raising minor objections in the functioning of government, but they do no speak much about the scams, scandals, muddles, bribes, corruption, sale of jobs, quotas and the licences. They know that tomorrow their turn shall come and they too shall be doing the same crimes, therefore, they are not speaking against these items and that is the reason that in most of the countries public funds had been misutilised or mis-appropriated, but none has gone to jail nor this money had ever been confiscated or refunded to the state exchequer. Who so ever had collected money that remained with him and that is the reason this class of politicians have turned rich in such democracies.
Since there is no alternative, the people are bearing all this bungling and they are not shifting once again to the rule of rajas, maharajas, monarchs and the imperialists. No body knows what shall be the next form of government, but it seems these politicians shall not leave this field and now more and more people are joining this line because it gives money and power both and the man starts running in crores. That is the reason that in India there had been a family rule, there had been a party dictatorship and then there had been individual autocracy. Now we are running in alliance system, but here too people are taken in on their merits, but they are taken in on the basis of their strength in the government. Till these politicians rule a country, we would not find people on merits and we should not expect any major development in the country The politicians would never allow intelligent, wise and meritorious people in the parties because once such entries are allowed, the people without merits shall have to be ousted and such a course is not favouring them. The politicians are not there to serve the nation, but they have taken up this line as a profession, trade, calling and employment and they are investing huge amounts just to win elections and form a government. Then they divide ministries as is done in a partnership business.

Now, I am not caring today, for myself, anything at all about a political party tag. So far as I am concerned, I want to know what the man stands for …When I find out these things, when I know who it is who should receive my support, and I care not what his party tag is…Today, our duty transcends party allegiance; our duty today is allegiance to the Constitution as it was given to us by the Lord. (J. Reuben Clark, Jr., CR 10/62:8) We must be devoted to sound principles in word and deed …

For the beginnings of political parties in the Anglo-American context, a good place to start is with Stuart England. In the reign of Charles I, you had distinct political factions: the "Court" faction and the "Country" faction competing in elections for the Commons. In the course of the English Civil War and its aftermath, a significant number of followers fled to the colonies. The influence of the "Court" party in the U.S. can be seen in the nickname for the University of Virginia — the Cavaliers. Meanwhile, the influence of the "Country" party was strongest in New England. Three major streets in New Haven are named after the individuals responsible for the execution of Charles I.
It doesn't mention them at all. It doesn't say they are required or disallowed, doesn't make them legal or illegal.
I guess you could argue it's an extension of freedom of assembly.
It wasn't entirely politician's fault, the early American people would label groups of politicians supporting ideas and this started the process of political parties.
They spend money on many things.
TV and Radio advertising.
Newspaper advertising.
Campaign mailings.
Paying people to make phone calls to encourage voters to vote for their candidates.
Signs to put up at polling places and on people's yards.
Here is an interesting blog:

Hm…that you did, that you did.
Stunning.
There are a number of politicians that do vote on issues independantly of the parties platform, they are a memeber of the party as that is the party which represents there view on the majority of issues. But nothing says you have to vote along the parties platform.
The origins of a competitive two party system in the US can be found in the institutional design: 1) Electoral College 2) single candidate district 3) President and Vice-President, and also 4) disputes around revolving issues like the ratification of the Constitution in 1797-89 and Jay Treaty that split factions, political symbols and groups supporting them. From another perspective, the interests and symbols were already divided and grouped in slave states and non-slave states.
1) Electoral College – The contest for the Presidency, the requirement of an absolute majority in the Electoral College, and the rule that each state would have a single vote in the runoff in the House of Representatives (Hough).
2) Single Candidate District- Districts that elect only one candidate and that do not require a runoff if the leading candidate doses not have a majority. Single member districts without a runoff tend to produce two-party competition , for the formation of the third party usually has the result of splitting the vote on its part of the political spectrum and giving victory to those most different from the vote. Each state had the incentives to ensure that it casts all its electoral votes for one candidate (Hough)
3) President and Vice-President- both are crucial offices that could not be selected by negotiation with the legislative. (McCormick)
4) Jay Treaty of foreign policy- the debate in 1794-1795 marked an important stage in the intensification and/or formalization of factional and party struggle (J.Charles,1961) As J.Charles argued, the Jay Treaty "altered party alignments and caused each group to close ranks" as a reaction of this debate, the losers made a coalition into the party they called Republicans and the conservatives did the same and coalesced into the Federalist Party. Thomas Jefferson and James Madison supported a pro-France line and Hamilton and Jay a pro-Britain policy and this was used as a symbolic issue to get support.
No, not at all. I said “what if” =D
I wish you well in trying to achieve your goal but I truly believe that you have the losing side.
The Founders not only didn't want political parties (or as they called them factions) but they fear them as instruments which would destroy the republic that they had created. Time is proving their fears correct.
Political parties having nothing to do with democracy, rather, political parties work to garner power unto the party over all else. Power exercise through an increasingly strong general government at the expense of State rights and the rights of the individual.
A good example of my point is the Republican Party's forcing through the application of the 14th Amendment in 1868 when it never met Constitutional requirements for ratification except through force applied through military of reconstruction. This was justified by the 1869 case of Texas v. White which opined that the federal government could do this by right of conquest. In other words at the expense of a constitutional republic and its democratic processes.
As many as we want.
The Federalists and the Anti-Federalists. The Federalists wanted a government in which the states were given power, and the Anti-Federalists wanted a more centralized government.
George Washinton, John Adams, Alexander Hamilton, and John Marshall were Federalists.
Samuel Adams, Patrick Henry, John Hancock, and George Mason were Anti-Federalists

Some of us are not tied to a political party—–we do our best to either vote for the lesser of evils or when we hit the jack-pot and find a candidate that best represents our best interests—unfortunatly there has been less of the latter in recent cycles.
Is it really that hard to beleive someone has tallent?
Sigh…same here.
