How Did James Madison Feel About Political Parties?
Our founding fathers were all very weary of political parties because they felt they would be divisive and that every time a new party was elected the government would be turned upside down. Of course, they ended up splitting into the Democratic-Republicans and the Federalists, but up until the election of the second president, they had no way of knowing that the party system was a viable option of a democratic nation. Madison himself was definetly more opposed to parties than for them. He was for a strong central government, much in contrast to men like Jefferson. Madison himself ended up becoming a federalist, so I imagine that even though he may have done it begrudgingly, he was for parties. His party at the very least :)
Where is Seeman getting all his funds for his political party Naam Tamilar Katchi? Is it from Vaikundarajan of the famous thorium scam?
I have good understanding about political party, how they get funds and manage their party. Based on my knowledge I am sharing this information.Most of the political party in the world get funds from business people and citizens.Of those parties, communist parties of TN will get fund only from the citizens.Now let us come to NTK, a friend of mine is in that party so I have some understanding about the how they manage to get funds.Until 2015 they got funded only by Sri-lankan Tamil nationals. But When 2016 election was close by many local businessmen started joining the party.Businessmen like Transport Operators, Money Lenders, Builders, Contractors, Land Promoters and (Brokers) etc…. In other words businessmen who need political power to operate their business.Some year back Vijaykanth’s Party utilise these kind of businessmen only.Tomorrow Rajinikanth will also use them. These businessmen are not just funding people they will also sit as parties higher level position.Police men and Government officials will give them respect because they where party men. If the business men belong to DMK or ADMK then the Officals will fell in their legs,because they have a ability rule Tamil Nadu. And new party will one day become MLA and help big party to rule TamilNadu. At that time these officials will be in trouble.For that reason officials treat party men with respect and fear. Business men will join the political party not for Ideology rather to do good things for society.Some one mention that NTK run 8–10 meeting a week which even big party can’t even manage to do that.Actually these all are funded by these business men( local leaders). NTK meetings all where simply organized (less fund) around Rs - 50,000 - 100000 only , some big meeting along with multi-district representative which be held on Tirchy are around 500,000 - 1,000,000.Now the fund they receive from Srilankan Tamil people are very less, they use to update that information in their website itself, with that money they can manage their party office only.They won’t update the fund they receieve from the business men(local leaders)As per your question Vaikundarajan may be one of the contributor to NTK.But these kind of Business Men won’t support party directly, because simultaneously they will fund both ADMK and DMK and NTK as well.So this how all the political party get funded.
What do you think about Indonesian political parties?
They’re all a bunch of over-educated prats who don’t know when to shut up or idiots who’ll rub two sticks together and call it a tree who also don’t know when to shut up. Hardly any of them does anything and when politicians actually do their jobs and serve their constituents half the country is too focused on the latest celebrity gossip to really give a rat’s ass or are taken down by the other parties. Just look at Ahok.In all seriousness they are, to paraphrase the musical Hamilton, people who stand for nothing and would fall for anything. They have no real platforms to speak off. All they focus on is their image and the image of their candidates. Have you seen those Perindo ads scattered on TV? It doesn’t really say anything about what they stand for. I looked up their website and got nothing, I had to go to Wikipedia just to know what their ideas on how to improve their country are, and remember, Perindo was only founded back in 2015, less than two years ago.We’re not even talking about the well-oiled political machine that ensures the status quo in Jakarta is inertia. Sure not all of them are bad, for one the President is a capable man with good intentions, but the guys who aren’t can’t get anything done because a party for sanity is far too outlandish for a country run by people who I wouldn’t trust with a BB gun, much less the lives of millions.
What do you think about the US Democratic Party?
It is its own brand of Bullshit™. The Democratic Party has uncomfortably close ties with the same corporate influences that have corrupted the Republican Party, and they have severely damaged their supposed credentials as the “party of the working man.” Democrats do not go far enough in confronting the underlying causes of economic unrest.However, the Democratic Party supports diversity, it is not ruled by petty fear of immigrants or social programs. The Democrats have been leaders (relatively speaking) in terms of reducing environmental impact, subverting climate change, science in general, minority rights, voting rights, the rights of women, not to mention acknowledgment of wealth inequality and the damage it causes and support of public lands and services. The Republican Party has openly attacked all of these things: they have waved the flag of ignorance and have openly embraced lies and liars (any number of Trump’s speeches provide ample examples of this), they have openly become the party of pussy-grabbing assault (we are holding actors and comedians to higher ethical standards than Congress is holding the President to), they are waging a savage attack on women’s rights and the right to have the option to terminate a pregnancy, and they are attacking verifiable science and scientists like it is the year 1200.Given the sheer lunacy of the current Republican Party and the rampant denialist of its supporters to acknowledge and own the tendencies so obviously in play, I would say that it’s pretty clear that the Democrats (unfortunately) even with all their flaws and shortcomings represent the only “adult” group in Washington.
How did James Madison feel about the formation of political parties?
He opposed them, but knew the tendency to factionate the political landscape would always be there. So he believed that hey should be created to be checks on one another to prevent the origination of parties that would not benefit American politics. In other words, he felt creating them was a necessary evil.
