Elon Musk, Just Deliver Constitution Support and Ballot
Voters have always supported the politicians who they have recognized are offering the most freedom.
George Washington’s Federalist Party offered the force to keep the British government away.

A party’s only appropriate power is to help its grassroots voters select good people to run for political offices. Good people will then turn and use their constitutional powers to limit others in governments.
