THIRD PARTY BALLOT ACCESS FOR PRESIDENT
And in for Independents Running for Elections in USA
Ballot access in the United States of America
( FREE FOR MEDIA ONLINE PRESS FROM WIKIPEDIA)
Overview of ballot access in the U.S.
Each state has its own ballot access laws to determine who may appear on ballots and who may not. According to Article I, Section 4, of the United States Constitution, the authority to regulate the time, place, and manner of federal elections is up to each State, unless Congress legislates otherwise.
The primary argument put forward by States for restricting ballot access has been the rational conclusion that setting ballot access criteria too low would result in numerous candidates on the ballot, splitting the votes of similar minded voters.
Example: With Plurality voting, an old but common way to pick the winner, the candidate with the most votes wins, even if it is not a majority. Suppose a district is 55% Democrat and 45% Republican, or vise versa. If there are two candidates which appeal to democrats, and one who appeals to republicans, the vote of the democrats will likely be split between the first two candidates, and the republican will win even though 55% strongly prefer someone else. Plurality races, also known as First past the post, tend to cause consolidation among political parties for this reason. Also, it would be expensive to print 100+ names on a ballot. However, proponents of ballot access reform say that reasonably easy access to the ballot does not lead to a glut of candidates, even where many candidates do appear on the ballot, as was the case in the crowded 2003 California recall. In that case, such actual crowding did not confuse voters: “Even though 135 candidates appeared on the ballot, newspapers reported that voters did not have trouble finding the candidate they wished to vote for.”[2]
Historically, there were generally no restrictions on ballot access in the United States until after the introduction of the so-called “Australian ballot” beginning in the 1880s. The eighteenth century prevalence of “voice voting” gave way to paper ballots, but until the 1880s paper ballots were not officially designed and printed by the government but were instead privately produced “tickets” that were distributed (usually by political parties) to the voter, who would take the ticket to the polling place and deposit it in the ballot box. The 1880s reform movement that led to officially designed secret ballots had some salutary effects, but it also gave the government control over who could be on the ballot. As historian Peter Argersinger has pointed out, the reform that conferred power on officials to regulate who may be on the ballot carried with it the danger that this power would be abused by officialdom and that legislatures controlled by the established political parties (specifically, theRepublican and Democratic Parties), would enact restrictive ballot access laws to influence election outcomes, for partisan purposes, in order to ensure re-election of their own party’s candidates.
Perhaps the most prominent advocate of the 1880s ballot reform movement, Dean Wigmore, suggested that “ten signatures” might be an appropriate requirement for nomination to the official ballot for a legislative office. In the twentieth century, ballot access laws imposing signature requirements far more restrictive than Wigmore had envisioned were enacted by many state legislatures; in many cases, the two major parties wrote the laws in such a way that the burdens created by these new ballot access requirements (usually in the form of difficult signature-gathering nominating petition drives) fell on alternative candidates, but not on major party candidates.[3] Proponents of more open ballot access argue that restricting access to the ballot has the effect of unjustly restricting the choices available to the voters and typically disadvantages third party
candidates and other candidates who are not affiliated with the established parties.

A DECLARATION
IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE UPDATE OF
-*UPDATED VERSION*- GUIDE FOR INDEPENDENT PARTY
BY THE REPRESENTATIVES OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICAN IN GENERAL CONGRESS ASSEMBLED
JULY 4, 1776
When in the course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume, among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the laws of nature and of nature’s God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.
We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal; that their Creator with certain unalienable rights; that among these are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness endows them.
That, to secure these rights, governments, are instituted among men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed and are instituted among men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed; that, whenever any form of government becomes destructive of these ends; it is the right of the people to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new government, laying its foundation of such principles, and organizing powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their safety and happiness.
Prudence, indeed, will dictate that governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and, accordingly, all experience hath shown, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while the evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed.
But, when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same object, evinces a design to reduce them under absolute despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such government and to provide new guards for their future security.
Such has been the patient sufferance of these colonies, and such is now the necessity, which constrains them to alter their former systems of government. The history of the present King and/or Queen of Great Britain is a history of repeated injuries and usurpations, all having in direct object the establishment of an absolute tyranny over the States. To prove this, let facts be submitted to a candid world:
Regarding the King of England at the time of July 4, 1776:
He was refused his assent to laws the most wholesome and necessary for the public good.
He was forbidden his governors to pass laws of immediate and pressing importance, unless suspended in their operation til his assent should be obtained; and, when so suspended, he has utterly neglected to attend to them
He has refused to pass other laws for the accommodation of large districts of people, unless those people would relinquish the right of representation in the legislature, a right inestimable to them and formidable to tyrants only.
He has called together legislative bodies at places unusual, uncomfortable, and distant for the depository of their public records, for the sole purpose of fatiguing them into compliance with his measures.
He as dissolved representatives, and representative houses repeatedly for opposing with much firmness his invasions on the rights of people.
He has refused for a long time, after such dissolutions, to cause others to be elected; whereby the legislative powers, incapable of annihilation, have returned to the people at large for their exercise; the state remaining in the meantime exposed to all the damages and dangers of invasions from without, and convulsions within.
He has endeavored to prevent the populations of these States; for that purpose obstructing the laws of naturalization of foreigners, refusing to pass others to encourage their migration hither, and raising the conditions of new appropriations of lands.
He has obstructed the administration of justice, by refusing his assent to laws for establishing judiciary powers.
He has made judges dependent on his will alone, for the tenure of their offices, and the amount of payment of their salaries.
He has erected a multitude of new offices, and sent hither swarms of officers to harass our people, and eat out their substance.
He has kept among us, in times of peace, standing armies, without the consent of our legislatures.
He has affected to render the military independent of and superior to the civil power.
He has combined with others to subject us to a jurisdiction foreign to our constitution, and unacknowledged by our laws; giving his assent to their acts of pretended legislation:
For quartering large bodies of armed troops among us:
For protecting them, by a mock trials, from punishment for any murders which they should commit on the inhabitants of these States:
For cutting off our trade with all parts of the world
For imposing taxes on us without our consent:
For depriving us, in many cases, of the benefits of trials by jury:
For transporting us beyond seas to be tried for pretended offences:
For abolishing the free system of English laws in a neighboring province, establishing therein an arbitrary government, and enlarging its boundaries to render it at once an example and fit instrument for introducing the same absolute ruled into these colonies:
For taking away our charters, abolishing our most valuable laws, and altering fundamentally the forms of our governments:
For suspending our own legislatures and declaring themselves invested with power to legislate for us in all cases whatsoever.
He has abdicated government here, by declaring us out of his protection and waging war against us.
He has plundered our sears, ravaged our coasts, burnt our towns, and destroyed our lives of our people.
He is at this time transporting large armies of foreign mercenaries to complete the works of death, desolation, and tyranny, already begun with the circumstances of cruelty and perfidy scarcely paralleled in the most barbarous ages, and totally unworthy the head of a civilized nation.
He has constrained our fellow citizens, taken captive on the high seas, to bear arms against their country, to become the executioners of their friends and brethren, or to fall themselves by their hands.
He has excited domestic insurrections amongst us, and has endeavored to bring on the inhabitants of our frontiers, the merciless Indian savages, whose known rule or warfare is an undistinguished destruction of all ages, sexes, and conditions.
*(We recognize the Indian Nations in the United States of America and do not hold grudges of what was written here in our past declaration of July 4th, 1776 against any Indians and declare we recognize ethnology as of 2010. We welcome Indians as the original people of these United States and ask for all that desire to join our American Independent Tea Party Act. For a re-declaration update to 2010 through December 21, 2012 T. 11:11) We ask that the next election of President of the United States recognize our American Independent Tea Party as American Independents to include Indian Nations.
In every state of these oppressions, we have petitioned for redress in the most humble terms; our repeated petitions have been answered only by repeated injury.
A prince, whose character is thus marked by every act, which may define a tyrant, is unfit to be the ruler of the Free People.
(We are American Independents with our own voting caucus to be dealt with and recognized in these United States.)
Nor have we been wanting in attention to our British Brethren. We have warned them, from time to time, of attempts made by their legislature to extend an unwarrantable jurisdiction over us. We have reminded them of the circumstances of our emigration and settlement here.
We have appealed to their native justice and magnanimity, and we have conjured them, by the ties of our common kindred, to disavow these usurpations, which would inevitable interrupt our connections and correspondence.
They, too, have been deaf to the VOICE OF JUSTICE AND CONSANGUINITY.
We must, therefore, acquiesce in the necessity, which denounced our separation, and hold them, as we hold the rest of humankind, enemies in war, in peace, and friends.
We, therefore, the Representatives of the United States of America, in general Congress assembled, appealing to the Supreme Judge of the world for the rectitude of our intentions, do, in the name and by the authority of the good people of these colonies, solemnly publish and declare, that these United Colonies are, and of right out to be, Free and Independent States:
That they are absolved from all allegiance to the British Crown, and that all political connection between them and the state of Great Britain is, and ought to be, totally dissolved; and
That, as Free and Independent States, they have Full Power to Levy Way, Conclude Peace, Contract Alliances, Establish Commerce, and to do all other Acts and things, which Independent states may of right, do. And, for the Support of this Declaration, with a firm reliance on the protection of Divine Providence, We Mutually Pledge – To each other Our Lives, Our Fortunes, and Our Sacred Honor.
We establish this American Independents Tea Party Guide.

A DECLARATION
IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE UPDATE OF
-*UPDATED VERSION*- GUIDE FOR INDEPENDENT PARTY
BY THE REPRESENTATIVES OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICAN IN GENERAL CONGRESS ASSEMBLED
JULY 4, 1776
When in the course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume, among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the laws of nature and of nature’s God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.
We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal; that their Creator with certain unalienable rights; that among these are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness endows them.
That, to secure these rights, governments, are instituted among men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed and are instituted among men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed; that, whenever any form of government becomes destructive of these ends; it is the right of the people to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new government, laying its foundation of such principles, and organizing powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their safety and happiness.
Prudence, indeed, will dictate that governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and, accordingly, all experience hath shown, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while the evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed.
But, when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same object, evinces a design to reduce them under absolute despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such government and to provide new guards for their future security.
Such has been the patient sufferance of these colonies, and such is now the necessity, which constrains them to alter their former systems of government. The history of the present King and/or Queen of Great Britain is a history of repeated injuries and usurpations, all having in direct object the establishment of an absolute tyranny over the States. To prove this, let facts be submitted to a candid world:
Regarding the King of England at the time of July 4, 1776:
He was refused his assent to laws the most wholesome and necessary for the public good.
He was forbidden his governors to pass laws of immediate and pressing importance, unless suspended in their operation til his assent should be obtained; and, when so suspended, he has utterly neglected to attend to them
He has refused to pass other laws for the accommodation of large districts of people, unless those people would relinquish the right of representation in the legislature, a right inestimable to them and formidable to tyrants only.
He has called together legislative bodies at places unusual, uncomfortable, and distant for the depository of their public records, for the sole purpose of fatiguing them into compliance with his measures.
He as dissolved representatives, and representative houses repeatedly for opposing with much firmness his invasions on the rights of people.
He has refused for a long time, after such dissolutions, to cause others to be elected; whereby the legislative powers, incapable of annihilation, have returned to the people at large for their exercise; the state remaining in the meantime exposed to all the damages and dangers of invasions from without, and convulsions within.
He has endeavored to prevent the populations of these States; for that purpose obstructing the laws of naturalization of foreigners, refusing to pass others to encourage their migration hither, and raising the conditions of new appropriations of lands.
He has obstructed the administration of justice, by refusing his assent to laws for establishing judiciary powers.
He has made judges dependent on his will alone, for the tenure of their offices, and the amount of payment of their salaries.
He has erected a multitude of new offices, and sent hither swarms of officers to harass our people, and eat out their substance.
He has kept among us, in times of peace, standing armies, without the consent of our legislatures.
He has affected to render the military independent of and superior to the civil power.
He has combined with others to subject us to a jurisdiction foreign to our constitution, and unacknowledged by our laws; giving his assent to their acts of pretended legislation:
For quartering large bodies of armed troops among us:
For protecting them, by a mock trials, from punishment for any murders which they should commit on the inhabitants of these States:
For cutting off our trade with all parts of the world
For imposing taxes on us without our consent:
For depriving us, in many cases, of the benefits of trials by jury:
For transporting us beyond seas to be tried for pretended offences:
For abolishing the free system of English laws in a neighboring province, establishing therein an arbitrary government, and enlarging its boundaries to render it at once an example and fit instrument for introducing the same absolute ruled into these colonies:
For taking away our charters, abolishing our most valuable laws, and altering fundamentally the forms of our governments:
For suspending our own legislatures and declaring themselves invested with power to legislate for us in all cases whatsoever.
He has abdicated government here, by declaring us out of his protection and waging war against us.
He has plundered our sears, ravaged our coasts, burnt our towns, and destroyed our lives of our people.
He is at this time transporting large armies of foreign mercenaries to complete the works of death, desolation, and tyranny, already begun with the circumstances of cruelty and perfidy scarcely paralleled in the most barbarous ages, and totally unworthy the head of a civilized nation.
He has constrained our fellow citizens, taken captive on the high seas, to bear arms against their country, to become the executioners of their friends and brethren, or to fall themselves by their hands.
He has excited domestic insurrections amongst us, and has endeavored to bring on the inhabitants of our frontiers, the merciless Indian savages, whose known rule or warfare is an undistinguished destruction of all ages, sexes, and conditions.
*(We recognize the Indian Nations in the United States of America and do not hold grudges of what was written here in our past declaration of July 4th, 1776 against any Indians and declare we recognize ethnology as of 2010. We welcome Indians as the original people of these United States and ask for all that desire to join our American Independent Tea Party Act. For a re-declaration update to 2010 through December 21, 2012 T. 11:11) We ask that the next election of President of the United States recognize our American Independent Tea Party as American Independents to include Indian Nations.
In every state of these oppressions, we have petitioned for redress in the most humble terms; our repeated petitions have been answered only by repeated injury.
A prince, whose character is thus marked by every act, which may define a tyrant, is unfit to be the ruler of the Free People.
(We are American Independents with our own voting caucus to be dealt with and recognized in these United States.)
Nor have we been wanting in attention to our British Brethren. We have warned them, from time to time, of attempts made by their legislature to extend an unwarrantable jurisdiction over us. We have reminded them of the circumstances of our emigration and settlement here.
We have appealed to their native justice and magnanimity, and we have conjured them, by the ties of our common kindred, to disavow these usurpations, which would inevitable interrupt our connections and correspondence.
They, too, have been deaf to the VOICE OF JUSTICE AND CONSANGUINITY.
We must, therefore, acquiesce in the necessity, which denounced our separation, and hold them, as we hold the rest of humankind, enemies in war, in peace, and friends.
We, therefore, the Representatives of the United States of America, in general Congress assembled, appealing to the Supreme Judge of the world for the rectitude of our intentions, do, in the name and by the authority of the good people of these colonies, solemnly publish and declare, that these United Colonies are, and of right out to be, Free and Independent States:
That they are absolved from all allegiance to the British Crown, and that all political connection between them and the state of Great Britain is, and ought to be, totally dissolved; and
That, as Free and Independent States, they have Full Power to Levy Way, Conclude Peace, Contract Alliances, Establish Commerce, and to do all other Acts and things, which Independent states may of right, do. And, for the Support of this Declaration, with a firm reliance on the protection of Divine Providence, We Mutually Pledge – To each other Our Lives, Our Fortunes, and Our Sacred Honor.
We establish this American Independents Tea Party Guide.
