“I have been saying for the some time now that America has only one party - the property party. It's the party of big corporation, the party of money. It has two right wings; one is Democrat and the other is Republican.” Has BeensTwoBigsAmericaPartyRepublicanWingsPropertyDemocratCorporationsRight WingBig Corporations Author:Gore Vidal
“Our Founding Fathers well understood that concentrated power is the enemy of liberty and the rights of man. They knew that the American experiment in individual liberty, free enterprise and republican self-government could succeed only if power were widely distributed. And since in any society social and political power flow from economic power, they saw that wealth and property would have to be widely distributed among the people of the country. The truth of this insight is immediately apparent.” PeopleIfsMenWellsSelfCountryWisdomGovernmentPoliticalFatherPoliticsIndividualSocialWealthLibertyEnemyEconomySawsRightsEconomicRepublicanSucceedUnderstoodFlowPropertyInsightExperimentsLiberalismEnterpriseFoundingOur Founding FathersPolitical PowerFree EnterpriseIndividual LibertySelf-governmentEconomic Power Author:Ronald Reagan
“The widespread distribution of private property ownership is the cornerstone of American liberty. Without it neither our free enterprise system nor our republican form of government could long endure.... The next Republican Administration will...not only protect the cherished human right of property ownership, but will also work to help millions of Americans - particularly those from disadvantaged groups - to share in the ownership of the wealth of their nation.” HumansLongHelpingWisdomGovernmentFormNextNationsWealthLibertyMillionsGroupsShareRepublicanProtectPropertyEndureAdministrationEnterpriseOwnershipDistributionForms Of GovernmentPrivate PropertyCornerstonesFree EnterpriseAmerican LibertyDisadvantagedProperty Ownership Author:Jeffrey H Reiman

“In Sumter and other counties [in South Carolina] the whites are resorting to intimidation and violence to prevent the colored people from organizing for the elections. The division there is still on the color line. Substantially all the whites are Democrats and all the colored people are Republicans. There is no political principle in dispute between them. The whites have the intelligence, the property, and the courage which make power. The negroes are for the most part ignorant, poor, and timid. My view is that the whites must be divided there before a better state of things will prevail.” PeopleStillsStatesPoliticalPoliticsLinesPoorViewsPrinciplesViolenceColorRepublicanRelationElectionPropertyDemocratSouthIgnorantAfrican AmericanDivisionDividedDisputesRace RelationsCountyCarolinaIntimidationSouth Carolina Author:Rutherford B.

“Heaven's sakes, there's only one party which I call the Property Party. It's got two wings. One is called the "Republican" and one is called "Democratic." It is the same party so it makes no difference whether a Democrat's elected or a Republican's elected.

“There is only one party in the United States, the Property Party...and it has two right wings: Republican and Democrat. Republicans are a bit stupider, more rigid, more doctrinaire in their laissez-faire capitalism than the Democrats, who are cuter, prettier, a bit more corrupt - until recently... and more willing than the Republicans to make small adjustments when the poor, the black, the anti-imperialists get out of hand. But, essentially, there is no difference between the two parties.” TwoStatesHandsBitsBlackDifferencesPoorUnitedPartyUnited StatesWillingRepublicanCapitalismWingsPropertyDemocratAdjustmentRight WingLaissez FaireLaissez Faire Capitalism Author:Gore Vidal
