| Message | Crown Party, democracy is not the "ravings of the mob" but rather the voting on whether to promote the ravings. I don't believe a party that doesn't even know the definition of democracy, as well as one who insults as oppose to argues, should run this country, |

| Message | The Moral Party does not agree with who you think knows what is best. We embrace the ideas of others, while you just put them down and keep your own ideas, and thus, keeping ignorance. And ignorance is not something the Moral Party wants or condones in government. |
