The Non-Partisan Political Movement

Our 2nd Revolution for Individual Sovereignty

Meet the IVA

Independent Voters Alliance

United States of America

 (USAIVA)

National Purpose

Political Goals:  Make Sovereignty the duty of every living natural citizen as intended in 1776 in our Declaration of Independence. Derive all rights from the basic legal right of all living natural citizens to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. Restrict the legal rights of non-living legal entities in order to protect individual liberty.

The ultimate IVA purpose is to give all citizens equal ballot access under federal election law and under election law in each of the fifty states. IVA participants will accomplish ballot access for and Election Day support of non-partisan candidates and issues. The IVA will publish ballot access petitions. Published petitions, available for download, will be petitions for independent candidates, minor political parties, and pro-reform referendum issues in each state. Each IVA certified petition circulator will choose which ballot access petitions to circulate. Successful petition efforts will give voters more ballot choices to initiate governance from the bottom up. Active citizenship, our participation, will lead to government of, by, and for the people at the local, state, and national levels.

The National IVA will support establishment of a coalition IVA non-partisan independent political party in each of the fifty states in agreement with state law in each state. IVA coalition participants will circulate petitions in each local IVA web page area to provide ballot access for all qualified non-partisan independent and minor party candidates for all national, state, and local elections for public office. IVA web pages will be established in every local electoral area in every state to provide local, state, and national communications and information for every IVA participant.

Each State IVA will consistently seek non-partisan coalition candidates who are in the moderate range on all political issues. The only requirement for all IVA participants and IVA candidates for public office is support for our democratic republic. Liberty, justice, and a more democratic republic are constant IVA goals.

Success depends upon participation by large numbers of non-partisan independents, who are a super majority, as IVA web page managers and as IVA certified petition circulators. The average IVA participant would need to donate ten to twenty hours of public service time per year to transform our political system. Liberty and justice for all in a more democratic republic is the overall IVA goal.

Continuous IVA ballot access as a coalition political party will be obtained in each state when supported by growth in the number of IVA participants. Continuous IVA ballot access will be maintained by petition or as otherwise provided by the provisions of election law in each state.

Continuous ballot access for all minor parties will be a required concurrent IVA petition goal in each state. IVA participants will work to place all non-partisan and minor party candidates on the ballot for the national offices of President, Vice President, US Senator, and US Representative to Congress in all fifty states. Each IVA coalition participant, individual voter or minor party, will then decide which Presidential pair, or other candidate, to vote for or endorse, as the non-partisan independent candidate most likely to win each public office. Each non-partisan independent and minor party public officeholder helps to eliminate the pointless bipartisan power struggle that now interferes with good government at all levels.

All IVA coalition candidates must support basic electoral and political reforms to return control of the political process to the American people.

Candidates: Each IVA coalition candidate, usually one per public office, could be a non-partisan independent candidate with a well-defined individual platform on issues. If not, an IVA coalition candidate can choose to run his/her campaign on the well-defined platform of one or more of the minor parties, such as Green, Independence, Libertarian, Natural Law, Reform, or We the People parties — in alphabetical order.

Non-partisan independents and minor parties using IVA ballot access will agree to choose one coalition candidate from all possible candidates to stand for any specific public office, especially on the state and local levels. Other promising coalition candidates will choose to run for another office where an IVA coalition candidate is needed to provide an alternative to the monopoly bipartisan two-party system. All endorsed candidates will be selected to provide the best-qualified candidate for every public office in every election.

In the event the IVA coalition non-partisan independent political party has actual ballot access and can field a full set of candidates for public office, and there is still more than one IVA candidate standing for the office(s), the IVA will participate in primary elections as provided by state law to elect one candidate from two or more IVA candidates to stand for each public office in the November general elections.

One central IVA coalition guiding principle is to provide opposition and alternatives to the monopoly bipartisan two-party system in order to win local, state and national level public office with non-partisan candidates who will provide government of, by, and for the people.

Briefly, the IVA can build a coalition non-partisan independent political party structure to maintain open ballot access for all public offices with the least effort possible in each state. With state ballot access problems solved the non-partisan independent political movement can dedicate more time and effort toward elections of more non-partisan independent candidates who will represent every person in the moderate independent super majority. Non-partisan IVA candidates elected to public office will govern for the common good of all citizens. (Top of Page) (Your Voice)

The non-partisan political movement can become strong enough to overcome the bipartisan (two-party) left/right stranglehold on our political process. Divided, non-partisan independents will continue to be factional and marginal. Together, the non-partisan independent super majority can move toward a more democratic republic of, by, and for all the people of the United States. Support your Local IVA. (Your Voice)

Ballot access petitions will be available on IVA web pages and other web pages for use by non-partisan independent citizens. Freedom is participation in power.

A Little Effort — A Lot of Liberty

Welcome to the non-partisan political movement.

Legislation: Develop and promote model legislation for ballot access and election laws for use in all fifty states. Model legislation must honor the equal protection provisions of the US Constitution in both the letter and the spirit of the law.
