  People First Party - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The official goals of PFP, as regards to cross-strait relationships and diplomacy, is for the ROC to: participate in more international organizations, promote Chinese culture overseas and seek economic and cultural interaction between Taiwan and the mainland.
To avoid a repeat of this effect, which led to the election of Democratic Progressive Party candidate Chen Shui-bian to the presidency in 2000 by a low share of votes, Chairman Soong ran as vice-president on KMT Chairman Lien Chan's presidential ticket in the 2004 presidential election.

 Austrian People's Party - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
For most of its existence, the People's Party has explicitly defined itself as Catholic and anti-socialist; the ideal of subsidiarity as defined by the encyclical Quadragesimo Anno is generally considered one of the historical cornerstones of its agenda.
Party leaders and intellectuals have been known to approvingly comment on select aspects of economic philosophies like those of Margaret Thatcher or Friedrich Hayek, but the party's rank and file mostly do not follow suit.
The Austrian People's Party is the successor of the Christian Social Party, a staunchly conservative movement founded in 1893 by Karl Lueger, mayor of Vienna and highly controversial right-wing populist.

 0.9.1: The Contract: Purchase Agreement, Shareholders Agreement, And Rights Of First Refusal - Encyclopedia - Library - ...
In a structured venture financing, the contract between issuer and investor is, or should be, detailed, covering a number of issues which otherwise may be the subject of future disputes and misunderstandings.
First of all, the section is designed, although not explicitly, as a device to draw into a lawsuit, given a misrepresentation, the perennial "deep pockets" in the financing: the law firm, the accountants, and the investment bankers (if any) serving as placement agents.
In fact, if the investors want to make (as they usually should) their own investigations—an "acquisition audit" as it is sometimes called—they may be deterred by a fear that the issuer will attempt to defend a charge of misrepresentation by claiming the investor is stopped by its own inquiries.

The People First Party (親民黨, pinyin: Qīnmíndǎng) is a conservative and pro-Chinese reunification political party in the Republic of China on Taiwan.
After the expulsion of Lee Teng-hui in 2001, the Kuomintang began reverting to policies more closely associated with Chinese reunification and thus the KMT and the PFP have competed for the same set of voters.
To avoid a repeat of this effect, which led to the election of Democratic Progressive Party candidate Chen Shui-bian to the presidency, Chairman Soong ran as vice-president on KMT Chairman Lien Chan's presidential ticket in the 2004 presidential election.

 James Soong   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-29)
Despite his lack of a party nomination and KMT accusations of embezzelment after large amounts of cash were located in bank accounts belonging to Soong's relatives in America, Soong narrowly lost the election with 36% of the vote to Chen Shui-bian of the Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) with 39%.
The loss of PFP votes was a major factor in causing the KMT to swing toward Chinese reunification thereby causing the subsequent expulsion of Lee Teng-Hui.
Some believe that the PFP's lack of experienced candidates in the December 2002 mayoral elections in Taipei and Kaohsiung (the PFP supported the KMT's candidates), and the PFP's poor performance the city council elections in those cities at the same time were major setbacks to Soong's chances of being the KMT-PFP candidate for president.

 Why the Democrats are not our party
For the Democratic Party establishment, it means a candidate who will challenge Bush...but not too much--certainly not so much that they might offend the mythical conservative "swing voters" on Election Day.
But for the people who actually vote for the Democrats, "standing up to Bush" means more than a "kinder, gentler" version of the Republican Party platform.
The tactics of the parties may differ--multilateral or unilateral, with the United Nations or not--but the ultimate goals are the same.
