Independent Woman

So I goofed. I changed my voter registration recently so that I'd be independent from any political affiliation. I was getting tired of saying I was a democrat and having the party be a do-nothing. However, the GOP doesn't seem to be doing anything either. (see: economic "stimulus" plan.)

Well my mistake came when I put "independent" on my registration form. Apparently "independent" and "nonpartisan" are two completely different things.

The American Independent Party apparently believes the following:

America and California need the leadership of the American Independent Party (California affiliate of the Constitution Party). We pledge to:
  • Reduce immigration, and stop all government subsidies to illegal aliens; no driver's licenses for illegals;
  • Immediately terminate international trade agreements such as NAFTA, WTO, CAFTA and the proposed FTAA, and stop sending high paying American jobs to foreign countries;
  • Stop the undeclared wars which are daily costing American lives and billions of tax dollars;
  • Protect the right to life of the innocent unborn;
  • Uphold traditional marriage and family values;
  • Defend America's moral values; keep God in the pledge of allegiance;
  • Defend Second Amendment rights;
  • Get rid of the Federal income tax, and restore a tariff based revenue system;
  • Stop reckless spending, including foreign aid, and take care of America's domestic needs;
  • End debt financing of both Federal and State governments;
  • Restore a debt free, interest free money system;
  • Support high standards in education, including encouragement of private schools and home schooling;
  • Stop the pillage of consumers and taxpayers by the energy/utility monopolies;

Oops... I suppose I shouldn't mention that I'm a stem cell research advocate and a liberal Catholic.
