What the CFPA needs to do is to start fielding candidates in Congressional, state, and local elections. A presidential candidate would need to raise at least $100 million just to be a factor and at least $200 million just to be elected. The CFPA can't raise that kind of money right now. However, if the CFPA can raise $2.5 million or more, it may be able to elect at least one Falangist to Congress or several state legislators, laying the foundation for a national movement.
It has to start at the local level....Board of Supervisors, state legislatures, etc. The state chapters of the CFPA need to have a strong number of members first. But I think the odds are turning in our favor as people become frustrated with the two major parties.

While yes the odds are turning in our favor in many states, other states aren't so friendly. Here in Washington we are voting on various propositions related to the election process. One of those propositions, Prop. 4, would force voters to once again pick a political party and vote based upon party lines rather than upon what we believe with regards to the candidate. I don't know about anyone else, I but I don't think somebody should be forced to vote for people from a specific party when the voter feels that neither candidate from that party is fit to serve in that office. However, that is what the state legislature is trying to force upon us. I have been encouraging people to vote no on Prop 4 for that very reason. Other states have thrown out similiar meaures. However, I think it would be helpful if members of the CFPA were to run for non-partisan offices to begin with so as to gain experience in an elected position and slowly work towards running for a partisan position, hopefully under the CFPA banner.
