A note about managing and especially starting parties: You need to be Rational. Next to nobody will support an abolitionist party in 1815 because everyone knew what would happen if slavery would be abolished, it's just that nobody cared in the 1850s. If people won't support your faction, they won't join it, and you will have to resign your political life (aka the game) in embarrassment.

Unless you're Donald Trump. Then you can return to the big parties and have everyone forget you tried to nominate yourself 16 years earlier with Oprah as a running mate and win the presidency. But you're not.
