America First Party (2002)
The America First Party is a paleoconservative third party in the United States.
The party was formed in 2002 when a group of Pat Buchanan supporters left the Reform Party. The party is pro-life, opposes all gun control, seeks to end affirmative action, racial quotas, and illegal and unlimited immigration. Buchanan himself has never publicly professed any affiliation with the party, though his books are for sale on the party's website "utographed... specially for the Party". The AFP has attracted individuals such as former Boston mayor and ambassador to Vatican Raymond Flynn and former John Birch Society president John McManus. The party's web page shows recent press releases and articles on current issues which showcase the organization's positions. Until 2010, the AFP also published a 12-page newspaper which illustrated its policy positions and focused on current problems in government.
