Why Was George Washington Opposed
to Political Parties?

In the vast and storied history of this country, there has only ever been one president who did not represent a political party – George Washington. Every man since who has occupied that prestigious position has been elected to represent not only the people, but the platform and policies of a political party.

When President George Washington left public office, he cautioned the nation not to divide themselves into political parties.

In his farewell address, he stated that the spirit of the party, “serves always to distract the public councils and enfeeble the public administration. It agitates the community with ill-founded jealousies and false alarms, kindles the animosity of one part against another, foments occasionally riot and insurrection.” 

Was he able to see into the future and the division his beloved nation would face in the years to come?

American Majority is pleased to announce it will be bringing back the Campaign-In-A-Day training experience to students at Liberty University on Saturday, October 9th. American Majority’s Campaign-In-A-Day is an interactive, rigorous, and team building training by American Majority. It is a great event to build and hone leadership skills. The attendees are split up into campaign teams. They are given a candidate, each with their own strengths and weaknesses, that they must figure out a plan to bring them to victory on election day. Throughout the course of the day attendees will be briefed on the dos and don’ts of campaigns and immediately have to put what they have learned into action through allocating funds, messaging, and getting out the vote.
