The Truth Party
I wish to run on the Truth Party. Wouldn't that be refreshing in
Washington? Always tell the truth; it will amaze your friends and confound
your enemies.
No party holds the privilege of dictating to me how I shall vote. If loyalty to
party is a form of patriotism, I am no patriot. If there is any valuable difference
between a monarchist and an American, it lies in the theory that the American
can decide for himself what is patriotic and what isn't. I claim the difference. I
am the only person in the sixty millions that is privileged to dictate my
patriotism.
I had been accustomed to vote for Republicans more frequently than for
Democrats, but I was never a Republican and never a Democrat. I owe my
allegiance to country and to the Constitution of the United States.
-Mark Twain

Mark Twain Boyhood Home
Hannibal, Missouri
I was born on the 30th of November in 1835 in the
almost invisible little village of Florida, Monroe
County, Missouri. When I was about four years of
age, my parents removed themselves to Hannibal
on the banks of the Mississippi River.
