	Online NewsHour \| Vote 2004 \| Politics 101 \| Campaign Finance Reform
		The system of funding political campaigns -- both to help elect a candidate or work toward the defeat of another -- is complex and often perceived by the public to be riddled with irregularities and loopholes.
		Despite the newly implemented BCRA regulations, the drive of politically minded groups to spread their message is strong and the debate over how to regulate advocacy groups continues.
		The commission decided in February 2004 that advocacy groups will now be restricted to using "hard money" donations for campaign communications, including for TV ads, that "promote, attack, support, or oppose" a federal candidate.

	Online NewsHour \| Vote 2004 \|Politics 101 \| Third Parties
		The answer, according to historians and scholars, is the political process that has relegated third parties to the sidelines and the nature of the parties themselves.
		Third parties have had a major influence on U.S. policy and political debate despite their minor presence in Congress -- currently only one U.S. senator and one member of the House of Representatives is an independent.
		When Ralph Nader announced in February 2004 that he would seek the presidential nomination, he was required to collect 1.5 million signatures in all states to appear on the ballot.

	Red Abbey View: Politics: Is the UKIP Bigoted?
		British political parties are preparing their manifestos for a General Election which is widely expected to take place in May 2005.
		Goodness, modern political parties tend to steer well clear of both of these areas and sometimes perform magical somersaults in trying to be all things to all people.
		It is because of these arguments that serious mainstream political parties steer clear of religion and go out of their way to court the "pink vote." They assume, rightly, that these areas are minefields which would blow their political campaigns out of he water.

	Five Minutes to Midnight - June 2004 - Politics & Sport
		“Politics and sport just should not mix,” is a common thought, yet one that rarely describes the truth.
		The decision to tour Zimbabwe and play is a difficult one, and the countries visiting the country may still change their minds if the political situation worsens.
		No matter what the decision is, however, it is clear to see that even sports can mirror the political situation of countries in different parts of the world.

		Thus of the 28% of the electorate who voted for Reagan, 11% gave as their primary reason "he's a real conservative." In Reagan's "landslide victory" of 1984, with just under 30% of the electorate, the percentage dropped to 4% and a majority of voters hoped that his legislative program would not be enacted.
		What these prominent political scientists describe is part of the powerful backlash against the terrifying "crisis of democracy" of the 1960s, which threatened to democratize the society, and, despite enormous efforts to crush this threat to order and discipline, has had far-reaching effects on consciousness and social practices.
		On the eve of the 2004 elections, "three quarters of Americans say that the US should not have gone to war if Iraq did not have WMD or was not providing support to al Qaeda, while nearly half still say the war was the right decision" (Stephen Kull, reporting the PIPA study he directs).

	rodcorp: Politics
		The constitution was signed in October 2004, but doesn't come into force until the 25 member states ratfiy it, by either referendum or parliamentary vote.
		It's a political party/campaigning organisation whose main goal is to give a voice back to real people, and let them make the key decisions about political policy.
		And, operating in an improving-the-social-fabric sphere that's slightly wider than politics, the BBC's iCAN is helping people find information, other people and tools to "change the world around you", and MySociety is reviewing projects submitted by the public, all of which would bring real-world benefits.

		With respect to the late House Speaker Tip O'Neill, all politics this year is not local — at least not in the grizzled Massachusetts politician's classic definition.
		Here's a theory about why the 2004 presidential campaign has turned into the longest and nastiest of any in recent memory: It's partially because of a dearth of down-ballot contests for Congress and for governor.
		In 2004, there are the swing states, there are states with a mildly interesting local race or two, and then there are true electoral deserts.

		Any political impact in Thailand, which has been racked by a Muslim insurgency in the south, will be tempered by the fact that the disaster area is on the south-west coast, far from the Malay-speaking areas in the south-east.
		“Governments could play politics by trying to centralise aid distribution in their hands, which is why it is important that international aid agencies be given a prominent role,” he says.
		Coordinating relief efforts will be politically sensitive since much of the destruction occured in the island’s north-east controlled by the Tamil Tigers, an area where an estimated 8,000 people may have died and another 500,000 are homeless.

		They gladly take out hard-earned money and laugh all the way to Congress, where they bribe our representatives who expand their corporate monopoly and silence our progressive voices.
		They lined up some true heavy hitters from the world of progressive online politics, but the panels were so crammed that there was no real discussion, which is the whole point of a roundtable.

	Texas Monthly February 2004: Talking Politics
		Most political journalism is written in the third person, because third person is more authoritative when you are trying to shed light on something the reader may not know about.
		You want to convey a sense of, "This is the way it is"; the author is trying to give the reader an accurate sense of a personality or an issue.
		Besides, judging by the letters we get, a lot of readers make up their mind about my political philosophy without knowing a damn thing about me. Might as well confuse them with the facts.

	Baseball Crank: Politics 2004 Archives
		Politically, this is an example of Democrats needing to better police their fringes.
		The Bush camp was probably politically wise to give no reason for this election to be racially polarized, even to the point of compromising its principles by signalling to the Supreme Court in the Michigan affirmative action case that it would not attack racial preferences.
		Generalizing, it seems like most of the political parties in Western Europe represent either different brands of “left wing” socialism or fringe “right wing” isolationism/anti-immigrant nativism, with some of the worst tendencies of the American right, but few of the positive ones.
