- For other political parties with a similar name see: America First Party.
America First Party was founded in the early 1990s by A.J. Barker and Ed Fields.[1]
In 1996 they ran Ralph Forbes of London, Arkansas as the "America First Party" candidate in the 1996 presidential campaign with Pro-Life leader Andy Anderson as his running mate, winning 932 votes.[1] He had tried unsuccessfully to file as the candidate of his own Freedom Party.[2]. Forbes had a radically hard-right past, having previously been a campaign manager for David Duke's Populist Party run for the Presidency and had also been an officer in the American Nazi Party.
