Dear Fred,
You have asked the question about banning political parties within the house and during election campaigns as described by me. This seems to be a difficult thing to understand for many. Let us say that the step 3 has been reached in the strategy I had described and most of the members within the elected house are either independents or members belonging to political parties that support the True Democracy concept (the final picture). Left as such, even though the members were elected with the support of the True Democracy platform and are free to act as independents (as per their solemn resolve made while joining the platform), they would still tend to act as a group if their political identity remains within the house, pushing their own conscience to the background. Groupism would remain in the house and this would impair their task of being true representatives of those who voted for them in the first place.


Hence even though members may be affiliated to a political party outside the house (and thus having freedom of association), inside the house to be truly independent, political parties need to be non-functional. This is not asking for too much as it appears on first sight. It is a fact that in secular states, members within a elected house belong to different religious faiths. Yet within the house, religion plays no role in the deliberations of the members. The same can happen in the case of political parties.


If political parties are to be kept non-functional within the house by law then for this to be truly meaningful, they need to be banned during election campaign also as otherwise the candidate, if elected, would be morally obliged to act on behalf of the political party that supported him during the election campaign. Thus even though a candidate may be affiliated to a political party which supports the True Democracy platform, he would have to take care of his election campaign without the party's support. This is necessary if he is to be truly representative of his people. A state funded election campaign would be possible under such circumstances.


This crucial step 3 scenario would be the pivot on which a conscience-based political system would rest. This has to be aimed at right from the start if all our plans for True Democracy is to be credible and infuse confidence among the people to support and join the True Democracy platform.
