  • Political Parties and Soft Money
    chapter 7 Political Parties and Soft Money The role of the players in political advertising—candidates, parties, and groups—has been analyzed in prior chapters. However, the newly changing role of political parties in the world of advertising requires additional scrutiny. With the new influx of unlimited funds from business interests, labor unions, and wealthy individuals, spending by party committees on television for all federal offices in the 2000 election reached $162 million, more than $81 million of which was spent on advertising in the presidential election alone. This represents about a 60% increase over party spending in the 1996 elections.1 According to FEC records, this increase in party spending was largely boosted by a dramatic rise in “soft money.” This chapter examines the unique role that political parties now play in political advertising. Particular attention is given to the sources of “soft money,” and what the flow of this money into the parties has meant for party politics. 1. “2000 Presidential Race First in Modern History Where Political Parties Spend More on TV Ads than Candidates,” Brennan Center Press Release (Dec.11, 2000) [www.brennancenter.org]. 60. $300,000,000 THE CONCEPT OF “SOFT MONEY” Democrat Republican discussed in greater detail in Chapter Three, the $250,000,000 As concept of “soft money” arises by contrast with the concept of “hard money,” the latter of which refers $200,000,000 to funds raised under the restrictions of campaign finance law. The federal restrictions include bans on contributions $150,000,000 from certain sources—corporate and union treasuries, and foreign nationals, for example—and monetary limits on $100,000,000 the amounts of contributions from all others.

  • 2018 Platform
    PLATFORM OF THE KANSAS REPUBLICAN PARTY ADOPTED JUNE 23, 2018 PREAMBLE The Kansas Republican Party affirms the Kansas Constitution in stating that “We the people of Kansas [are] grateful to Almighty God for our civil and religious privileges.” Since man is created in God’s image, each person’s dignity, freedom, ability, and responsibility must be honored. THE KANSAS REPUBLICAN PARTY BELIEVES THAT OUR COUNTRY AND CONSTITUTION are honored as exceptional and upheld. OUR JUDICIARY must respect the separation of powers, not make laws. OUR FAMILIES AND COMMUNITIES are the bedrock strength of our nation. OUR RIGHT TO KEEP AND BEAR ARMS must be protected. OUR CULTURE should respect and protect life. OUR MILITARY must be prepared to defend us and receive our best care. OUR LEGAL IMMIGRATION is a blessing to this country. OUR HEALTHCARE DECISIONS should be made by us and our doctors. OUR ECONOMY WILL GROW when government is smaller and efficient. OUR CHILDREN should be taught to build upon their skills and knowledge. OUR SAFER COMMUNITIES should be free of violent and non-violent crime. OUR INSTITUTION OF TRADITIONAL MARRIAGE is the foundation of society. OUR AMERICA preserves property rights and can be energy independent. Understanding the rapid nature of changing needs, we recognize that specific legislative proposals will come and go. We believe the merit of future legislation, policy and candidates should be judged against the philosophy of the Republican Party as expressed by this Platform. 1 I. EMBRACING OUR HERITAGE The Kansas Republican Party believes that the fundamental principles of the Republican Party are rooted in the Declaration of Independence and the Constitutions of the United States and Kansas, especially in their respective Bills of Rights.
