Eventually we hope to broaden so we're not just one-issue. That will come in time.

Why vote for us? We're anti-SOPA, anti-PATRIOT and want true transparency and openness of government. We're young, and we're not going to let the government be more of "business as usual."

The name "Pirate" comes from the Swedish "Piratpartiet," and THEIR name came from the Swedish Piracy Bureau, the Piratbryan, which was formed all the way back in 2003 by artists and other creatives. It's an attention-getter, for sure, but once we explain to people what we're about, most get it.

Johnny Depp, and eyeliner LOL

Why vote Pirate? We're anti-SOPA, anti-PATRIOT, and we want to reform copyright and patents. Think of how long both Republican and Democratic members have protected Big Pharma and the RIAA/MPAA. Should companies like Monsanto really "own" genetic code? Absolutely not, we say. In addition to that, I personally believe that there should be more parties getting in offices, but so many are hung up on red-vs-blue.

We're working on stances regarding the economy and unemployment. However, one of our members is working on a new system called Payright, intended to replace copyright. I took a look at a draft of this some time ago, and it's really good. Hopefully it will be finished soon.
