Welcome!
There's a reason you're here today, reviewing The Constitution Party of Louisiana's web site. Perhaps you're searching for an alternative to today's "Big 2". More than likely, just like us, you've come to the conclusion that there really isn't any substantive difference between the "Big 2" Parties.
Our once great nation has steadily been sliding down a slippery slope, yet, in spite of the continued promises from the "Big 2", we're certainly not seeing any light at the end of the tunnel.
That’s why The Constitution Party was formed. Not to be another “third” party, but to be a true alternative to the “Big 2”, who are truly the Big One party. America needs a choice, a real choice, not the option of picking one of two parties who continue to deliver the same failing promises. The Constitution Party is a real choice for a restored America.
FACTS ABOUT THE CONSTITUTION PARTY
In 1992 a coalition of independent state parties united to form the U.S. Taxpayers Party at its first national convention in New Orleans, Louisiana. Among the notable convention speakers was former Congressman Ron Paul. The party’s founder, Howard Phillips of Virginia, Chairman of the grass-roots lobby, the Conservative Caucus, was nominated to be the party’s first candidate for President with retired Army Brigadier General Albion Knight of Maryland nominated as the party’s first vice-presidential running mate. The US Taxpayer’s Party secured ballot position in 21 states. Later, in 1999, the name was changed to the Constitution Party to better reflect the party’s primary focus of re-establishing the American Constitutional Republic according to the Actual Intent of the Framers of the U.S. Constitution.

WHY A THIRD PARTY?
- To encourage voter participation and citizen involvement in the governing process.
- Competition yields a Superior Product; i.e. better elected officials and better government.
- 95% of all incumbent candidates win re-election. In recent years, between 50 and 75 of incumbent Congressmen in the U.S. did not face an opponent on the November ballot, allowing them to be reelected without even campaigning.
- Voter choice is even more limited in state legislative races. 35 to 40% of the 6900 seats in state houses across the US (over 2500 seats) typically have no competition.
- To address issues ignored by the two parties in power.
