[The AAP Revises Its Manifesto]

Day 431, 20:07 Published in USA USA by Ian John Locke IV
Intro
America’s Advancement Party (AAP) is a party dedicated to benefit America. The party is based off of different beliefs because no one belief is perfect for every situations thrown at us by our country. We take an active part in our country and its people, this party is made to inspire involvement and giving everyone a voice to be heard on national issues.

Political Beliefs
The AAP puts the people of the eUSA before itself. The party is a tool that is used to help the country’s politics and governmental system. The AAP accepts and welcomes differing political views to provide the optimal solutions for issues facing our country. Our aim is to provide as many active governmental leaders as possible, and even have an army of non-government workers to assist our government officials. We do not deny members the chance to grow politically. We do believe that all the parties can work together in order to provide the most efficient government possible.

Military Beliefs
The AAP supports Our Military. We are neither Warmongers or Pacifists and will never back down from an enemy of the eUSA or her Allies. During times of peace we support the government stockpiling so as to prevent overproduction of items such as gifts, moving tickets and especially weapons, but we do not support prolonged war to increase demand as it has been proven to hurt our economy rather than help it.

War may be economically necessary when overproduction and an overly strong dollar cannot be fixed otherwise. During times like these, we also support and encourage war games with allies. Such games would both increase our citizens' average strength, increase demand to lessen the effects of overproduction, and introduce USD to our economy, weakening our dollar when needed.

Quoting Uncle Sam, "In theory, if war is done correctly, it does benefit the economy in terms of balancing the supply-demand factor."

During times of foreign conflict we as Americans will support and follow our treaties and nothing more in the ATLANTIS alliance, unless it is to our advantage. We support any and all eUSA approved wars and will aid the war effort and especially our troops

We believe that an organized army is crucial to our country. We support the recruitment of soldiers to join our organized military and the Executive use of the military for country related conflicts.

We believe that during times of war weapons and (budget allowing) gifts, should be distributed several hours before a battle giving citizens fore-notice of the upcoming battle.

Economical Beliefs
In the area of Economics the AAP understands that there are good times and bad times, in which we adapt to match the situations. We support higher income taxes to protect domestic times during peace times and times of overproduction. We firmly believe in the eUSA companies exporting to bring foreign gold into our country. We also believe in a small income tax for every industry in order to gain revenue for our government to spend on its programs.

The AAP, will firmly and certainly voice their opinions of any and all tax policies congress may be considering or passing. We vow to offer discussion of any proposals which we feel may hurt the American business owner, consumer, and/or government.

Membership
We at the AAP do not deny membership to any citizen from any region. We encourage all members to be active within the Party and to even comment on Articles and Forum. The only way to be heard to express yourself and we encourage this as much as possible. Be Vocal to be Active! We give equal opportunity to get involved in government for maximum benefit of the country. We accept all political views of other members and encourage their differences to provide the best solutions. We do not need Yes Men/Women

Elections
General: We will nominate the candidate through a tough a rigorous debate and election that will make US ALL STRONG at we see best fit. This decision will be made as a party and will be treated as a democratic decision. Voting on who we nominate takes place to decide similar to a primary election. We have a group of campaign workers ready to hit the ground for our candidates.

Party: Everyone can run for the office of party president. No restrictions apply to those who wish to run, except for in game experience point’s limitations.

Congressional: The AAP provides its best for congressional candidates and we organize our members in order to achieve maximum congressional seats. By contributing many members into congress we benefit the country by bringing our organization and activity into higher government.

Leadership
In the AAP We encourage all members to get involved in leadership. We accommodate the wants and needs of those showing the responsibility and activity it takes to hold a leadership position. Positions that can be obtained are congressional seats and office in party departments. We offer many opportunities by giving room for many different types of leadership positions within the party.

When applying for a party leadership position level and experience points do not matter. As stated above, they only matter when vying for Congressional seats.

Education
We who are members of the AAP believe in the education of younger members of eRepublik both in-party and extra-party. We support any and all attempts of the government to create departments to further this goal.

We also offer off-site educational guides through our party forums and will allow our members who write these guides to publish them for the world-at-large's benefit as we do not seek just to benefit ourselves, but the eUSA as well.

Closing Statements
The AAP is here being activity both within the party and our country. Our party is made from the citizens, for the Citizens, by the Citizens to help them grow economically and politically. This party is a working part of the eAmerican Government and will be treated as such.
