4. To promote the free market that made our country the leader of the world.
5. To give support for individual rights, and property rights.
6. To provide a platform for giving like-minded people a voice.

*******************************************************************************************

A NOTE ABOUT OUR BLOGS AND FORUMS.  THEY ARE OPEN FOR ANYONE TO POST ANYTHING AS LONG AS IT FALLS WITHIN OUR WEBSITE CODE OF CONDUCT WHICH YOU WILL FIND ON THE RIGHT SIDE COLUMN OF THIS PAGE.  THESE ARE JUST ONE PERSON'S OPINION AND NOT NECESSARILY THE POSITION OR SANCTIONED BY TEA PARTY OF WEST MICHIGAN.  WE WANT TO GIVE AS MUCH FREEDOM AS POSSIBLE TO THOSE TWO AREAS OF THE MAIN PAGE!

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

A little instruction about how to use our site.  Any wording on our site in BLUE and underlined usually means it is a "click-able" link either to another place on our site or another site altogether.  At the top of any page on our site you can click on the RED titles like (Groups or Events) to open up more pages on our site.  For instance under Events you will see a list of Events like our meetings, candidate forums etc. in date order.  If you find and Event that interests you and the title is Blue and when you roll your mouse pointer over it it changes (goes from BLUE TO RED) that means it is a live button and if you click on it you will open up that event.  Many things on our site work this way.  If you don't see enough information on something, see if it will open up further.  This confuses a lot of people.  It's just how our site works.  The information is there but sometimes it's a little hard to find.

Here are a few resources for MI residents that I thought might be of interest:

1) You can find out if someone has given any money to a politician, a candidate or PAC by going to this link and the "Search by Contributions Analysis" link - you can search by last name at the bottom (that can tell you something about a political persuasion of a person); by zip codes (to find people who may agree - or disagree with you in your area) by putting just zip codes in; find out who has given to a candidate, by putting the candidate committee number in, etc.  you can also download the lists by checking off the "spreadsheet format"

http://www.michigan.gov/sos/0,1607,7-127-1633_8723_8751---,00.html

2) You can find out who owns MI companies and other organizations here:

http://www.dleg.state.mi.us/bcs_corp/sr_corp.asp

3) You can find out who has contracts with the state of MI here (and can download in excel):

http://www.michigan.gov/buymichiganfirst

4) You can find any bill in the legislature here, along with links to the State House and Senate websites to find out info on legislators and committees here - as well as links through those websites to live streaming of committee meetings:

http://www.michiganlegislature.org/

Feel free to ask questions about how to use these links in the "comments" section, and I'll try to answer them.
