Announcing PROUD AMERICAN, a new Independant Party.

Springfield, VA (PRWEB) July 04, 2013

A New Star is born in the United States of America – PROUD AMERICAN, a new Independent Celebration

&#13

“Wishing you a quite satisfied and protected July 4th holiday. Enjoy the beauty and the bountiful possibilities our wonderful nation offers. Life is a present.”

&#13

Life is a present from our parents. We are born to reside, get pleasure from and cherish our present. We can appear at each and every opportunity as an obstacle, or each obstacle as an chance. Who we are, what we are, and where we are, have a lot to do with the alternatives we have made and the ones we did not. Our profession and service to the community are the outcome of what we do with our gift. &#13

&#13
Krishnan Suthanthiran, President, PROUD AMERICAN Party

Does America require a new Independent Celebration…?

&#13

Why did the past attempts by the Independent Party fail?” Asks Mr. Suthanthiran.

&#13

According to Mr. Suthanthiran:

&#13

In the past, candidates showed up for an election, and there was never ever a party with a full platform, philosophy or targets, functioning far more as a nuisance to one particular or the other candidates and with out a purpose.

&#13

The Occupy Wall Street Movement focused and attempted to warn us of the dangers of continued Financial Terrorism of the 21st century, but could not obtain adequate help, given that the very same economic institutions and bankers are the ones bankrolling the campaigns of Republicans and Democrats. And, it was a movement and not a celebration!

&#13

The Tea Celebration Movement began with the goal of making a much more efficient government and to balance the budget and neutralize the trade deficit. However, they also usually aligned with the wrong candidates, and the Republican Party utilized them for their own purposes, and was distracted from the main purpose of their movement. This as well is an ongoing movement, but not a political party with a platform.

&#13

The Libertarian Party has some great suggestions for the nation, but they aligned themselves with the Republican Party, which basically suppressed their aspirations and viewpoints and ignore their existence.

&#13

Can a new Independent Celebration succeed against the two established parties the Democratic and the Republican Parties?

&#13

The program is to: &#13

1. Reach out to all Centrists who are Independents. &#13

two. There is a possibility that 30 to 40 % of Republicans, Democrats and Libertarians, might be inclined to join a New Independent Celebration, obtaining Centrist Views, given that the two parties tend to market and represent the intense views. &#13

3. Will commit the subsequent four years in constructing the party, its base, and platform even though actively engaging in the debate of the national agenda, and promote policies that place America initial and foremost in our Domestic and Foreign Policies. &#13

4. Will not have a candidate for election at least till 2016 or till the party has built a powerful base to constructively engage in regional and/or national elections. &#13

5. Will engage social media and generate films to promote the views of the celebration for constructing a powerful and viable National Independent Celebration.

New American Funding Says Banks Placing Rising Value on FICO Scores


(PRWEB) April 13, 2009

Considering that the early 1990s, a FICO score has been a common component of home lending decisions in the United States. Throughout the time of rising house values in the new millennium, the score became less important, as the rise in values served to get several borrowers out of difficulty with payment obligations. Now that home values have come crashing down, banks are as soon as once more putting an enhanced value on FICO scores as a figuring out element for lending choices, says Rick Arvielo, president of New American Funding, a fully delegated FHA lender that performs distressed borrowers via effective write-down negotiations and loan modification activities.

&#13

You want only glance at the statistics to see that the odds of a borrower becoming delinquent on his or her mortgage go up a lot more than 100 occasions from a sub-600 FICO score to a 700-plus score. That is massive! Now the banks are hunting at this data with renewed interest, Arvielo says.

&#13

Even with the help of the Federal Housing Administration — which essentially doesnt acknowledge FICO — major lenders are just refusing to accept borrowers with sub-600 FICO scores, making FHAs want to give financing to these who may otherwise qualify irrelevant.

&#13

I uncover myself puzzled by the telegraphing being accomplished by the industry, which suggests a borrower need to have be in default just before he or she can receive attention from loss mitigation and default prevention possibilities, provided the fact that performing so will destroy your probabilities for a new loan as your all-important FICO will be adversely impaired, Arvielo says. Fannie Maes personal guidance suggests At least two complete monthly payments of principal and interest (P&ampI), taxes, and insurance (or P&ampI only if taxes and insurance are not escrowed) are due and unpaid before a homeowner qualifies for support.

&#13

With all of this taken into account, the outcome is a landscape where an person will likely need to have to destroy his or her credit worthiness in order to receive the interest price reprieve some most desperately want, regardless of intent. That is really a shame!

&#13

FICO credit bureau danger scores are accessible at all 3 main US credit reporting agencies — BEACONsm at Equifax, EMPIRICA
