American Constitution Party (Colorado)
The American Constitution Party (ACP) is one of the state of Colorado's major political parties. It is affiliated with the national-level Constitution Party, a right-wing and theocratic political party in the United States.〔"Southern Poverty Law Center." Constitution Party Hopes to Take Politics to the Extreme in 2004. Spl Center, Feb.-Mar. 2003. Web. 20 Sept. 2013. 〕 The party asserts that the US is a Christian nation founded on the Bible and that American jurisprudence should be restored to what the party claims is its "Biblical foundations".〔(Preamble to Constitution Party Platform ) "The Constitution Party gratefully acknowledges the blessing of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ as Creator, Preserver and Ruler of the Universe and of these United States. We hereby appeal to Him for mercy, aid, comfort, guidance and the protection of His Providence as we work to restore and preserve these United States. This great nation was founded, not by religionists, but by Christians; not on religions but on a foundation of Christian principles and values. For this very reason peoples of all faiths have been and are afforded asylum, prosperity, and freedom of worship here. The goal of the Constitution Party is to restore American jurisprudence to its Biblical foundations and to limit the federal government to its Constitutional boundaries."〕 The ACP qualified for major party status in Colorado after receiving more than 36% of the vote in the 2010 gubernatorial election.〔http://www.constitutionparty.com/news.php?aid=1301〕
==Background==
The American Constitution Party registered as a political party with the state of Colorado on July 23, 2000.〔http://tracer.sos.colorado.gov/PublicSite/SearchPages/CommitteeDetail.aspx?OrgID=12339〕 In July 2013, the ACP had just over 7,000 registered Colorado voters affiliated with it.〔See (Colorado Secretary of State: Voter Registration Statistics. )〕 Some of the party's positions include:
:ACP members ... call for the abolition of the Food and Drug Administration, the Internal Revenue Service, the departments of Education and Energy and the Federal Election Commission. They seek the repeal of a number of laws, including one aimed at preventing threats and force against abortion clinics and women seeking abortions and a 1960s-era law meant to end discriminatory election practices.〔(Jessica Fender, "Tancredo's new party way out in right field," ''The Denver Post''; July 27, 2010. )〕
For most of its existence, the ACP has existed as one of Colorado's "minor parties," and has never elected one of its candidates to office.
