Influencing perspectives online since 1997

2009 has shown promise as the beginning of a new era in national politics, but it remains to be seen if the chants of "yes we can" will drown out the drone of business as usual in Washington.  The Third Party of America was conceived as an alternative voice that speaks to reason and empathy rather than the Right of Left.  While we are undergoing some change of our own as the nation adjusts, we will continue to be a part of the solution and a place where everyone is welcome to politely share their perspectives and help build that bridge to our better collective future.


Temporary Changes

 
This is a temporary version of our site.  Previous visitors will remember a much more technically complicated approach, complete with an open forum for discussion and a Wiki designed for community-style creation of our platform.

While we undergo an internal review of the site's needs and redesign our pages for ease of use, we will continue to post updates here.

Please check back often. 

Anyone wishing to volunteer their time to help design or maintain our site should contact Jeffrey Poehlmann directly via email.

Site Update:
As of February 2009, our interactive forums are temporarily disabled while we work on a better solution to SPAM-proof them.  We apologize for the inconvenience.  However, if you are looking for an old post or you are doing some research on a topic that we can help you with, we have tried to save as much of our history as possible in our off-line archive.

Additionally, there is the impressive Minerva project of the Library of Congress, which has archived portions of our site from the 2002 election cycle, which can be accessed here.

Our "Convention Floor" forum has been widely praised for our style and class when it comes to the heated issues of real-world politics.  We intend to continue this tradition and hope that you will enjoy the information here today while committing to return in the near future to participate in our community as it continues to evolve.
