  12. THE VETERANS PART OF AMERICA • The Veterans Party of America is based in St. Petersburg, Florida and was founded in 2003. • The party’s main purpose is to "give political voice for the first time since 1776, to the men and women who were willing to give the ultimate sacrifice for this country. No longer will they have to grovel and beg and fill out paperwork for years just to get what they proudly earned and were promised." • The VPA is not restricted to only veterans, but also the families of veterans can join. • The Veterans Party wants to represent the rights and needs of veterans across the political spectrum -- which is why the party's top priority is improving the lives of those who served. • http://www.politics1.com/parties.htm
