Dear Editor:

American Third Position is a political party which has been in existence since Jan. 2010. American Third Position or A3P is a political party that promotes the ethnic interests of white people. We are in favor of deporting illegal immigrants and we oppose all forms of affirmative action. Our website is http://american3rdposition.com//

A3P fielded a candidate for President this last election. The candidate was Merlin Miller. Merlin Miller is a movie maker by profession. He is a graduate of West Point. He has four daughters, three of whom are West Point graduates.

Merlin Miller’s running mate was Virginia Abernethy. Virginia Abernethy is a professor emeritus at Vanderbilt University.

A3P achieved ballot status in Tennessee, New Jersey, and Colorado. In addition, it obtained write-in status in at least six other states. Merlin Miller ended up getting slightly more than three thousand votes. His primary objective was to make the American public aware that we exist.

Unfortunately, he did not have write-in status in Arizona. Applying for write-in status can be involved when you have a candidate running for President of the United States. You have to comply with requirements of the Electoral College. When you vote for a candidate, you are actually voting for a slate of electors.

Arizona has seven electoral votes. To apply for write-in status, you have to submit the names of eleven electors. Pursuant to this, I have set a goal to have at least eleven due-paying members by the time the 2016 election rolls around. We can apply for write-in status then.

Sincerely,

/s/Ralph A. Brandt Mesa, AZ
