This small political party didn't get enough signatures in 2000 to get on the ballot in a single state,
and its first nominees for the Presidency in 2004 quit after only a month of campaigning when they discovered
how much work it was. However, Templin took the reins in January on a platform that emphasized her positions,
which she describes as:
- 100% pro-life (i.e. anti-abortion)
- Strong opponent of gay rights and illegal immigration
- Strong opponent of gun control
- Opposed to most trade agreements as preliminary steps toward world government
- In favor of withdrawing from the United Nations and throwing it out of New York
- Abolition of Federal ownership of land and elimination of federal zoning laws
- The elimination of the Internal Revenue Service
- The elimination of foreign aid, including contributions to the World Bank and the IMF
- Non-intervention and non-involvement in the rest of the world but a very strong military
- Reassertion of American sovereignty over the Panama Canal
- No foreign military involvement for more than 72 hours without a declaration of war from Congress
