Republican Party Texas

Joann Said:

what other political party was there in Texas or the U.S. other than the Democrat or republican parties?

We Answered:

A couple actually there was the
Free Soil Party, (purpose was opposing the expansion of slavery into the territories, arguing that free men on free soil comprised a morally and economically superior system to slavery.)
Federalist Party(grew into the nationalistic Federalist Party who wanted a fiscally and militarily strong nation state.)
Democratic-Republican Party (Jefferson and Madison created the party in order to oppose the economic and foreign policies of the Federalists,)
Whigs Party (party was formed to oppose the policies of President Andrew Jackson and the Democratic Party.)
Populist Party ( based largely on its opposition to the gold standard. )
As sectionalism came about so did other parties :)

Yes.If the repub party platform in Texas was put to a vote,I'm betting it would pass easily.There's a good chance it would pass nationally.Beware of the person carrying a bible and a flag.They'll gladly give away our rights.The theocracy is on its way if we don't fight it here and now.
