What is the PoliticsNationwide.com network?
Introduction
The PoliticsNationwide.com network - coming live on the internet soon - is comprised of multiple hundreds of Democratic, Republican and other top-level .com, .net and .org generic political urls and web addresses being designed to be devoted to comprehensive, current, accurate, fair and balanced presentations of politics, public policy and government, at the federal, state, county and municipal levels throughout the United States of America.
Our mission is to enable any citizen who has wired and wireless access to the Internet to find persons, candidates, causes, campaigns, associations, organizations, parties, groups, political action committees, entities, agencies, departments, think-tanks, academic institutions, consultants, fundraisers and lobbyists that are directly or indirectly involved in politics, public policy and government anywhere in the United States of America, and empower each to do business online with each other.
Philosophy
We believe this mission for politics, public policy and government on the internet can best be accomplished:
- By securing and owning multiple hundreds of simple top-level generic .com, .net and .org Democratic, Republican and other urls and web addresses, like www.searchcongress.com, www.houserepublicans.com, www.housedemocrats.com, www.searchdemocrats.com, www.searchrepublicans.com, etc., etc., etc., so that internet users are more likely to find the political, public policy and government information they need and want by:
- typing simple generic Democratic, Republican and other political domain names in to the address line on their web browsers; or
- finding hundreds of the PoliticsNationwide.com network links to simple generic political, public policy and government terms, definitions, web pages and websites when using search engines to look for political, public policy and government information; and
- delivering internet users who visit a PoliticsNationwide.com network url and web address to the political, public policy and government information they seek.
- By pledging to:
- be thorough and constant in our search for including opposing views;
- avoid all and any conflicts of interest and the appearance of conflicts of interest wherever and whenever possible; and
- make every reasonable effort to be free of any obligation to any person, group, organization, party, special interest and/or authority directly and/or indirectly involved in the influence of, and/or the formulation and/or execution of, political, public and government policies, at any level of government and political activity throughout the United States of America.

The Market
The U.S. Census Bureau's most recent census of governments in the United States reports that there are more than 87,000 governmental units in the country. These include agencies and departments of federal, state, municipal, county and special-district governments throughout the nation. These do not include offices occupied by officials who are elected by voters to represent and serve them in their governments at every level.
Today at the federal level of government in the United States there are 537 elected officials from among the 50 states only, including the President, Vice President, 100 Members of the United States Senate and 435 Members of the United States House of Representatives. While the incumbent President and Vice President run for election and re-election together on a ticket, their elected positions are challenged every four years by contenders who compete, first, for the opposition political parties nominations for the office of President, and then in a general election. Likewise, one-third of the Members of the United States Senate is elected every second year in a competitive contest for their offices among contenders who compete in primaries and general elections and are residents of those respective states. And, every two years all 435 seats in the United States House of Representatives must be filled by voters casting ballots, in primary and general elections, for contenders competing for that office in their respective districts.Additionally, among all the states in the Union there are 50 elected Governors and more than 40 elected Lieutenant Governors, more than 300 officials elected statewide in their respective states, and more than 7,000 elected state legislators. Elections for these state-based offices sometimes have multiple contenders competing in primary and general election campaigns, and occur on either a two-year or four-year electoral cycle. Some but not all of the Lieutenant Governors run for election separately from the Governor and not with the Governor on a joint ticket.
Likewise, there are more than 3,000 county governments and more than 19,000 municipal governments, excluding townships and villages. Executive power for each of these governmental units is typically held by an elected chief executive and other elected and appointed individuals, while legislative matters are typically governed by elected councils and elected boards of supervisors, which typically vary in membership from 5 to 40 or more members. Election to each of these executive positions as well as council and supervisorial positions is often sought by many contestants, competing in primary and general election campaigns, typically in either two-year and/or four-year election cycles.

Furthermore, there are more than 7,600 national-based and more than 7,400 state-based trade and professional associations with executive leaderships that exist, in part, to affect the enactment and outcomes of national, state and local political and public policy issues important to their memberships. These national and state-based trade and professional association leaderships often help to elect candidates to office who are in agreement with their political and public policy beliefs, while seeking to oppose candidates who do not agree with them. Likewise, as of January 1, 2003, there are more than 4,000 Political Action Committees (PACs) registered with the Federal Elections Commission, and more than 30,000 Political Action Committees (PACs) registered with authorities who provide legal oversight and enforcement of laws, rules and regulations for elections and political activities in the 50 states.
Throughout the United States there are also hundreds of think-tanks and academic institutions which have a focus on politics, public policy and government; hundreds of state and thousands of county political party official and auxiliary organizations; as well as thousands of fundraisers, consultants and lobbyists who have professional work that is focused primarily on politics, public policy and government.
What is the program offered by the PoliticsNationwide.com network?
Official Government Websites and Webpages
Political leaders, elected officials, public policy professionals and government executives at the federal, state, county and municipal levels of government in the United States will discover that the PoliticsNationwide.com network will be forever building and growing, while we continuously endeavor to be comprehensive about tying official websites and official webpages with official governmental responsibilities directly to our entire network of multiple hundreds of generic Democratic, Republican and other political urls and web addresses - free of charge - simply so we can empower the American people to find them on the Internet and do business with them online.
This work may never be at an end precisely because of (1) the size of government; and (2) politics, public policy and governments at all levels anywhere in the United States continuously evolves and/or devolves and changes.
But focusing primarily on tying only official websites and official webpages with only official governmental responsibilities to the PoliticsNationwide.com network cannot by itself help to deliver internet users who visit a PoliticsNationwide.com network url and web address to the political, public policy and government information they seek without also including on the PoliticsNationwide.com network websites and webpages built by political and public policy activists who advocate political and issue campaigns and causes.
Membership in the PoliticsNationwide.com network
Elected incumbents, candidates who seek election to public office, candidate and issue campaigns, political party organizations, volunteer organizations, interest groups, professional and trade associations, political action committees, think-tanks, academic institutions, political consultants and fundraisers and lobbyists, who are active at all and any levels of government throughout America, may become paid Members of the PoliticsNationwide.com network, and build websites and webpages to be housed on the PoliticsNationwide.com network - without space limitations - and upload to disseminate almost anything they want, with no prior knowledge of HTML, XML and advanced web technologies necessary.
The cost to become a Member of the PoliticsNationwide.com network starts at only $39.95** per month.
If you are an elected incumbent, a candidate who seeks election to public office, a candidate and issue campaign, a political party official and auxiliary organization, a volunteer organization, an interest group, a professional and trade association, a political action committee, a think-tank, an academic institution, a political consultant or political fundraiser or lobbyist, and you and your staff can work with basic office software, then you will have all the technological skills you need to build broad-based visibility, engage and enroll countless other citizens on the net from throughout the nation who believe as you do, and raise a lot more money than you do now, from them, with paid Membership in the PoliticsNationwide.com network of urls and web addresses.

Strict Separation of Official Websites from Political and Advocacy Websites
Never will we directly commingle the content of the political and advocacy websites and webpages which Members build and house with the PoliticsNationwide.com network with websites and webpages we are tying to the PoliticsNationwide.com network which are created and maintained by elected political leaders, public policy professionals and government executives for their official government business.
The contents of any and all information presented on political and advocacy websites and webpages housed by the PoliticsNationwide.com network on behalf of our paid Members will be strictly separated from links to websites and webpages for official government business, and will be solely the responsibility of the person, group, advocate, organization, party, special interest and/or authority providing that submission. These will be clearly labeled as having been provided by and paid for by some source other than the PoliticsNationwide.com network.

What are the main features of the PoliticsNationwide.com network?
The PoliticsNationwide.com network is being built with many features. Four of these features - a Master Search Engine, Web Address Groups, Online Donations and a Master Event Calendar - are discussed below.
Master Search Engine
Every PoliticsNationwide.com network portal page will provide a Master Search Engine. The Master Search Engine is being built to permit citizens to search for political, public policy and government information by level of government, branch of government, political party, state and issues.
The Master Search Engine is being built to permit citizens to search for:
- official government websites at the federal, state, municipal and county levels of government in the United States, which have been created and maintained by:
- elected political leaders for their official governmental responsibilities;
- public policy professionals for their official governmental responsibilities;
- government executives for their official governmental responsibilities; and
- government agencies and departments.
- paid Members of the PoliticsNationwide.com network of urls and web addresses who have built and housed political and advocacy web pages on the PoliticsNationwide.com network. These include:
- elected incumbents
- challengers who seek election to public office
- candidate and issue campaigns
- political party organizations

Web Address Groups
Each specific PoliticsNationwide.com url and web address will provide content which is organized in to subject categories that are tailored to be specific for the subject heading in the name of that specific url and web address only.
Subject category headings are organized in to groups of PoliticsNationwide.com urls and web addresses which are most appropriate for finding information associated with specific job-titles and with specific political parties.
Click here to get a list of the PoliticsNationwide.com network's Web Address Groups.
For example, users of the PoliticsNationwide.com network will not find a content-specific category for Republican Party U.S. House of Representatives elected incumbents on a PoliticsNationwide.com url and web address entitled www.democratstatesenates.com. Nor will a PoliticsNationwide.com network user find a content-specific category for Democratic Party U.S. House of Representatives elected incumbents on a PoliticsNationwide.com url and web address entitled www.gopstatesenates.com.
Nonetheless, the PoliticsNationwide.com network's Master Search Engine - which permits users to search for political, public policy and government information by level of government, branch of government, political party, state and issues - will be found on every portal page of the PoliticsNationwide.com network of urls and web addresses, regardless of the subject heading in the name of that specific url and web address. This will enable users of any PoliticsNationwide.com networked url and web address to find:
- official government websites at the federal, state, municipal and county levels of government in the United States; and
- all political and advocacy websites and webpages housed on the PoliticsNationwide.com network which have been built by paid Members, regardless of the PoliticsNationwide.com networked url and web address they visit.

Every Democratic, Republican and other political url and web address in the PoliticsNationwide.com network will include an online donation system designed for accepting and rejecting monetary donations made by users of the PoliticsNationwide.com network to paid Members of the PoliticsNationwide.com network. Users will be able to make monetary donations using Visa and MasterCard credit cards, or by debiting their checking accounts.
Members of the PoliticsNationwide.com network who may accept monetary donations from users are Members who have:
- paid their very low Membership fee of $ 39.95** per month; and

Paid Members of the PoliticsNationwide.com network will keep 90 cents of every dollar donated to them by users of the PoliticsNationwide.com online donation system.
Federal, state, municipal and county governments in the United States of America have very strict laws, rules and regulations governing monetary donations made to political and electoral causes. The PoliticsNationwide.com network's online donation system is being designed for F.E.C. as well as 50-state compliance with these laws, rules, and regulations, with the appropriate and specific fundraising laws, rules and regulations enforced by governing authorities in each specific jurisdiction for each specific campaign waged there already programmed in to the PoliticsNationwide.com network's online donation system.
While the PoliticsNationwide.com network will take every reasonable step to insure that each monetary donation made by a user to a Member's political campaign and political cause complies with the appropriate laws and rules and regulations for the political campaigns and political causes being waged by the Member in the Member's respective jurisdictions, Members must and will have sole legal and other responsibility for determing the legality of any contributions received by their political campaign and political cause. The PoliticsNationwide.com network has no legal responsibility for confirming the legality of any donations.
Users of the PoliticsNationwide.com network's online donation system who are qualified to make monetary donations to political campaigns and political causes waged by Members of the PoliticsNationwide.com network:

No contribution from users of the PoliticsNationwide.com network's online donation system will be accepted if the users do not correctly answer all questions asked of them by the online donation system at the time the users try to make a monetary donation. Correct answers comply with the laws, rules and regulations for accepting monetary donations by the political campaigns and political causes being waged by Members in their respective jurisdictions. The PoliticsNationwide.com network has no legal and other responsibility for confirming the accuracy and truthfulness of the answers given to these questions by users when they make donations to a Member's political campaign and political cause using the PoliticsNationwide.com network's online donation system.
Initially the PoliticsNationwide.com network's online donation system will be enabled to accept monetary donations made by users to Members of the PoliticsNationwide.com network who are politically active as elected incumbents and electoral challengers at the federal and state executive and legislative levels of government throughout the 50 states. At some later time during the 2003-2004 electoral cycle the online donation system will likely be expanded to include the ability to accept credit card and check-debiting contributions made by users to Members of the PoliticsNationwide.com network that are (1) campaigns for public office at the municipal and county levels of government; (2) issue and initiative and referendum campaigns; (3) state and county political party official and auxiliary organizations; and, (4) political action committees active at the federal and state levels of government.
Any and all information provided by qualified citizens who use the online donation system to make monetary donations will be disclosed, as soon as possible, and/or when required by governing authorities with legal oversight and enforcement responsiblities for specific political campaigns and political causes in the appropriate jurisdictions, to:
- the recipient(s) of that specific monetary contribution;
- to the governmental authority and/or authorities empowered with legal oversight and enforcement responsibilities for political campaigns and causes waged by Members of the PoliticsNationwide.com network;
- to the general public, but not prior to the time when public reporting and public disclosure is required by law; and

- not occur unless the recipients seeking this information pay fees to the PoliticsNationwide.com network for the data.

Master Calendar of Events
Each of the PoliticsNationwide.com network's multiple hundreds of generic Democratic, Republican and other political url and web address will include a Master Calendar of Events.
Elected incumbents, challengers who seek election to public office, candidate and issue campaigns, political party official and auxiliary organizations, volunteer organizations, interest groups, professional and trade associations, political action committees, think-tanks and academic institutions will be able to list information about their events on the PoliticsNationwide.com network's Master Calendar of Events.
For each event, the Master Calendar of Events will include:
- the date of the event;
- the time of the event;
- the location of the event;
- the primary contact person's name and telephone number and email address for the event;
- the cost of registration for an attendee at the event; and
- whether the event includes a tradeshow and exhibition, the cost of participating in the tradeshow and exhibition, as well as the tradeshow and exhibition contact person's name and telephone number and email address, if applicable.
The PoliticsNationwide.com network's Master Calendar of Events will include information about events and tradeshows and exhibitions that our research staff has gathered and verified. Likewise, event-planners will find on each of the portal pages of the PoliticsNationwide.com network a direct link to an online form where they can provide the same types of information about their events for listing in the Master Calendar of Events which is not already known by the research staff at the PoliticsNationwide.com network. No information provided on this online form will appear on the Master Calendar of Events until it has been verified by someone at the PoliticsNationwide.com network.
Visitors to each of the portal pages of the PoliticsNationwide.com network's urls and web addresses will find a direct internal link to "more events" where they can begin their search for information about all events listed in the Master Calendar of Events, and sort these in to many subsets of events. Events listed in the Master Calendar of Events may be sorted by branch of government, level of government, political party, state and issues, whenever applicable.
A user who visits a subject-specific PoliticsNationwide.com network url and web address like www.washingtondemocrat.com or www.washingtonrepublican.com, however, will find on the portal pages for those urls not only a direct internal link to "more events" where they can begin their search for information about all events, but also internal links to information about events listed in the Master Calendar of Events that are to be hosted specifically by Democrats in Washington, D.C., or Republicans in Washington, D.C., respectively.

There are no plans at this time to charge any fee for listing the dates, times, locations, names and telephone numbers and email addresses for the contact persons, as well as costs for attendee registrations, for events and tradeshows and exhibitions listed on the Master Calendar of Events, though that may be subject to change, with notice, at a later date.
Event-planners who are not already paid Members of the PoliticsNationwide.com network may upload conference and seminar programs, tradeshow and exhibition specifications and floor maps, housing and travel information - almost anything else they want to promote about their events and disseminate to their prospective attendees without space limitations on the PoliticsNationwide.com network - for a very low fee starting at only $39.95** per month per event.
For an additional fee, the PoliticsNationwide.com network does also intend to enable event-planners to:
- register event attendees and event exhibitors online;
- enable event attendees to contract online for convention-planning services such as shipping, drayage and on-site labor; and
- enable attendees to reserve hotel rooms and make travel arrangements online.
These additional services will be made available to event-planners at a later date.

Click here to learn more about American Web Services.
ArrowClick Site Manager
The ArrowClick Site Manager is the core PoliticsNationwide.com network technology which will enable elected incumbents, candidates who seek election to public office, candidate and issue campaigns, political party official and auxiliary organizations, volunteer organizations, interest groups, professional and trade associations, political action committees, think-tanks, academic institutions, political consultants and political fundraisers and lobbyists, to build, manage and house websites on the PoliticsNationwide.com network of urls and web addresses.
Paid Members of the PoliticsNationwide.com network will be given a master administrative login during the registration process. The information that will be collected during registration for Membership in the PoliticsNationwide.com network will form the foundation of a Member's political and advocacy websites and webpages to be housed on the PoliticsNationwide.com network. Members will be able to:
- choose from several different layout designs, and have detailed control over the security, content as well as the "look and feel" of their website and webpages built and housed on the PoliticsNationwide.com network;
- control access to their site and pages and designate which individuals may have access to add, remove and change content; and
- choose colors, fonts and layouts for their websites and webpages built and housed on the PoliticsNationwide.com network.
When a PoliticsNationwide.com network Member completes using the PoliticsNationwide.com system to build a basic system for housing their political and advocacy website on the PoliticsNationwide.com network, they will be prompted to add content by using either a Netscape or Microsoft web browser and Microsoft Word, or by using any WYSIWIG editing program. Subsequently Members will be able to add new pages and content to their websites and webpages built and housed on the PoliticsNationwide.com network at any time.
Paid Members of the PoliticsNationwide.com network using the network's Site Manger will also have a wide variety of add-ons from which to choose, including but not limited to:
- a link to the PoliticsNationwide.com network's online donation system, to take monetary contributions donated to them online;
- a page for recruiting volunteers;
- a personal events calendar which is open to public users of the PoliticsNationwide.com network, while the Members retain administrative control over it;
- an email management system to create internal databases of the PoliticsNationwide.com network's users from the general public who visit the Member's political and advocacy website housed on the PoliticsNationwide.com network and register there;
- create targeted newsletters to PoliticsNationwide.com network users who register their email address as well as other personal and professional information each Member chooses to collect on a political and advocacy website and webpage built and housed by the Member on the PoliticsNationwide.com network.
No Member of the PoliticsNationwide.com network building and housing political and advocacy websites on the PoliticsNationwide.com network needs to know how to work with HTML, XML and advanced web technologies. If the persons with administrative and security access to Member political and advocacy websites and webpages built and housed on the PoliticsNationwide.com network can work with basic office software, they will already have the skills necessary to fully utilized the security, administrative and content features for their political and advocacy websites and webpages built and housed on the PoliticsNationwide.com network.

ArrowClick Content Manager
The ArrowClick Content Manager for the PoliticsNationwide.com network will enable administrators of political and advocacy websites and webpages built and housed by paid Members of the PoliticsNationwide.com network to add, modify and delete content from the site without having any prior knowledge of HTML, XML and advanced web technologies.
Administrative users will be able to add a document to their site, such as press releases and news stories, and "attach" these documents to the types of content they want displayed. These may be attached to a variety of designated urls and web addresses which are enabled to permit searches by level of government, branch of government, political party, state and issues. For example, a user from the general public visiting a url and web address provided by the PoliticsNationwide.com network could seek out all news releases pertaining to the environment released by Democrats in California, and the result of that search will list any document which meets this criteria.
Each paid Member of the PoliticsNationwide.com network will have a designated profile that will classify their content and determine which of the PoliticsNationwide.com network's urls, web addresses and categories where it is most appropriate for that content to appear.

ArrowClick Online Donation Manager
The ArrowClick Online Donation Manager will permit each paid Member of the PoliticsNationwide.com network who is accepting monetary contributions from visitors to their political and advocacy websites housed on the PoliticsNationwide.com network to have their own merchant account. There will be no commingling of any monies received by any paid Member utilizing the Online Donation System of the PoliticsNationwide.com network with the monies received by any other paid Member, or with any monies received in any merchant accounts for the PoliticsNationwide.com network.

ArrowClick Event Manager
The ArrowClick Event Manager will permit each paid Member of the PoliticsNationwide.com network who is hosting events to disseminate information about them. The PoliticsNationwide.com network's Event Manager system is designed to target the promotion of these events to the general public who visit specific urls and web addresses in the PoliticsNationwide.com network, and who search for subsets of events by branch of government, level of government, political party, state and issues, whenever applicable.
