In The Declaration of Independence

"--WE hold these Truths to be self-evident, that all Men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness --"

Project For Defending The Rights Of The Independent American

This is an Independent American project for the promotion of American politics that includes greater respect for our national independence and our rights under Constitutional law.

In your opinion, how important is our right to vote for the election of our politicians?

As seen in the Declaration of Independence, where do our basic rights come from? (See above)

Many people are aware of the controversy caused when some federal courts said it’s against the law to give respect for any religious belief in such places as public schools and court houses. In your opinion, should public schools have the right to teach words that respect a belief in God in connection with patriotism, such as when saying the Pledge of Allegiance, or when reading the Declaration of Independence that gives recognition to God as our Creator?

It is our opinion that they should have the right to connect patriotism with belief in God.

The rights we stand for determine the character of our nation. Whenever any government legislation, or executive order, or court judgment appears to be in contradiction to what should be our rights, we have the right to be concerned.

Many more people are becoming concerned. A growing number of over 350 different cities, counties and states across the country have passed resolutions to voice their concerns. They are not just concerned about our rights to peaceably express our belief in God in public places. They talk about such concerns for our rights as comes because of the laws written against our rights that have been written into the Federal Patriot Act. They say that we should not allow our laws of liberty to be overruled by unconstitutional government authority for any excuse.

In our opinion, we should not give terrorists the satisfaction of knowing that they can succeed in making us give up even one part of the law of our liberty as written in our Constitutional Bill of Rights. It is our opinion that there have been too many Americans who have fought and died for the laws of our liberty for us to give any of them up because of our fear of terrorism.

Do you have a copy of the Declaration of Independence and Constitution?

We are looking for people to help us promote a political alternative to where the present two party system is leading us. Read our pamphlet before making a final opinion.

George Washington, Farewell Address

"The -- Constitution -- ‘till changed --,’ is sacredly obligatory upon all -- But let there be no change by usurpation; for though this, in one instance, may be the instrument of good, it is the customary weapon by which free governments are destroyed. --"

The following information came from http://www.bordc.org on 9-27-04:

"The Bill of Rights Defense Committee encourages communities to take an active role in an ongoing national debate about the USA PATRIOT Act and other anti-terrorism measures that threaten civil liberties guaranteed by the Bill of Rights." "356 Civil Liberties Safe Zones! Four states and 352 cities and counties have passed resolutions to protect their 55,035,941 residents’ civil liberties. Hundreds more resolutions critical of the USA PATRIOT Act are in progress."

ESTABLISHING A STRONG POLITICAL ALTERNATIVE FOR AMERICA

We will not mince words, dance around, or make apology for what our intentions are. Our intentions are to promote a strong political alternative to the two party system that has become severely affected by the influence of those who use their financial power and prestige to promote allegiance to a world of corporation dominated international laws of trade above the interests of national civilizations and the rights of independent Americans. We believe our national survival, as an independent nation based upon our Declaration Of Independence, lies in the balance.

Today, we see a great need to promote patriotism for who we are as an independent nation and a people who have made great sacrifice for our people’s rights. We see a great need to promote confidence in the laws of our Constitution. We also see the need to have a vision for the future that includes the recognition of a new political party that believes in our nation’s independence.

Where we see on page one of this letter an introduction to our message that can be used as a dialogue when contacting people, page two lays out our plan for how we intend to accomplish our political goals.

We begin with the distribution of this information, then we look for the needed support.

We look for people who understand the events of our day and who share our concerns as expressed here and in the "We The People Of The Union" pamphlet.

In a state such as Kansas, once we obtain agreements from at least 400 people to participate in a petition drive, we can then begin to collect the required petition signatures for official state Independent American Party recognition. The 400 people can consist of those who will help pass out this information as well as those who will only agree to help us in the petition drive after the 400 supporters have been found. When the petition drive begins, 400 people will be able to collect 18,000 signatures with a minimum of only 45 collected signatures each. Larger states will require larger numbers.

For each successful state petition drive, the Independent American Party will have ballot access in the coming 2006 election year. As important as it is to succeed in achieving IAP ballot access, increasing the political awareness of the citizens is as important as is ballot access.

The National Chairman of the IAP has given the following instruction for ballot access:

"I have one major suggestion on gaining ballot access: You may consider yourself as having two missions (1) to gain ballot access, and (2) to recruit party members. I strongly suggest that you keep those two missions entirely separate from each other, or you are likely to fail with the ballot access one."

"The brochure you have written may well lend itself to recruiting petitioners for the ballot access drive. But I would not use it to get people to sign the petition. Sometimes we are tempted to try to convert the signers into members, but we lose too much time in doing that."

"In our last petition drive in Utah (even though we missed it by 500 names), we didn’t even try to promote the party. Our approach was — "Every party ought to have the right to be on the ballot" — and it worked very well. People from all political persuasions were willing to sign our petition. When anyone asked for information about our party, we then handed them a flyer, but we did not try to (use) flyers in our approach."

"So you might consider this for the petition efforts; and concern your self with recruiting in a separate effort."

In every state of the Union, with the support of concerned citizens who can see that our rights can be easily lost if we are not willing to stand up for them, we should be able to find many more than 400 supporters. Though many might not have the time or means to directly engage in the effort, many will still wish us success in our work of defending our rights of liberty.
