The Situation in Syria Grows Dire

The Syrian Government, led by the Assad regime, seems intent on murdering its own people.  Armed intervention could be very dangerous, due to the Iranian influence on Syria, but at the very least, the world, especially the Arab world, must keep the pressure up on Syria to stop.  The United States can do its part by encouraging its Arab allies to put pressure on Syria.

Top Down Authoritarianism Does Not Work

With recent protests in Russia and the Middle East, a theme is clear.  The top down authoritarian style leadership is not working as well, or at all, anymore.  People now doubt their government more than ever, and not just in this country.  This theme is being harnessed, as it should be, to solicit change around the world.  People do not like being talked down to, and justly will not take it anymore.  Now is the time to act against this kind of government, so protesters can ride the wave of discontent.

An Alternative

We aim to create a powerful third party in America.  We endeavor to be the alternative to the Republican and Democratic parties.  In doing so, we hope to reflect the values of the american people.
The traditional parties in America must stop politicizing every issue.  Our leaders instead should do what they were elected to do: lead.   This may involve taking some unpopular positions, and refusing handouts and perhaps being unpopular in the insider circle.  Our leaders must deal with all of this, and take a firm stand for the people.  We need people who will speak and vote their mind, not simply another candidate who will rubber stamp their party's agenda.  We need our leaders to be the agents of positive change in our government.  Help us elect people who will do this.  We need leaders who will improve America.

A New Approach In American Politics

We need to take a new approach to politics.  We need to take back America and advocate policies that the people want.  We need to create a government that works for the people.  We need government to operate more efficiently.  The American people deserve better.  We cannot have ceaseless partisan bickering.  We need to do what is right for America, do what is right for the people.

We advocate this new approach to politics.  We encourage people to become active in their communities and encourage good governance.  We need to keep up to speed with current events and let our representative know how we feel about the issues, events, and policies that define our nation.  We cannot sit back while all the decisions are made by Washington bureaucrats.  We need to take action.

Break Free From Conventionalism. Be your Own Self.

There is an extreme tragedy in government today.  It seems that no matter how much arguing, discussion, and "bipartisanship" that goes on in Washington, the major parties still cannot agree on solutions.  They remain united against or for different measures, regardless of what the American people, or even at times their own districts, believe is right for the country.

Instead of having a strong alliance and loyalty to party, we should instead have loyalty to our country.  If we put aside what our party (or some other special group's) interests, we can get more done.  We are all individuals, individuals with great ideas.  In order to have all those ideas spread and nurtured, congressmen need to not always conform with their party.  The same should be for everyone.  Instead of rubber stamping the party doctrine, we need to have open minds, listen to, and discuss people's own individual ideas.

The same goes for us too.  Do not simply agree with whatever we have to say.  Come up with your own ideas.  Voting for a party or even a candidate based on a single or handful of issues is not prudent.  Let everyone's ideas and opinions come out into the open.  We daresay that with less people conforming to their party ideas, we might come up with some better solutions.

No More Same Old, Same Old

Desperate times call for desperate action.

We need to change the way we do things in order to succeed.  Government needs to acknowledge that changes must be made.  We cannot keep operating under the same practices.  We must challenge the status quo and think for ourselves.  We cannot just sit back and eat up what the major parties tell us.  They can deceive the electorate, and this is very dangerous.  They polarize the American people, so we are really just choosing those who are good party candidates, not American candidates.

We need people in Washington and all of government to really value what the American people want.  Bickering in congress of this and that does not help anyone.  It hurts the American people.  These two sides need to learn to get along and put aside their interests groups, their big sponsors, and do what is right for the people.
