. . . is a nonpartisan think-tank dedicated to promoting government "of, by and for" all of the people of the United States through the spread of common sense ideas for political reform. The Proactive Voter Movement pamphlet was my jumping off place in 1997 to attempt a personal evaluation of what was wrong with our two-party political system. Common Sense led me to the conclusion that absolute control of politics from the top-down by the DNC and RNC, a national political monopoly, was the problem. I call that "dictatorship"* the monopoly two-party system. My dream is to restore the promise of liberty and a democratic republic to our people through public awareness and widespread proactive participation in elections. We need to rewrite civil law to make "public service" the only possible benefit that can be had from holding public office.   *Ralph Nader

I invite you to pursue the dream of self-government promised in the Declaration of Independence and made sustainable by the provisions of the U.S. Constitution. The only guarantee Freedom has is political participation by our underrepresented natural citizens. We are the 99.999%. Unite America. Everybody vote! Elect populist 99.999% candidates. Occupy Congress and all fifty State Legislatures. Become proactive voters. Unite America.

Our computer, tablet and smart phone desktops will be headquarters for our bottom-up political leadership. Millions of desktops. Participate! Occupy Elections!!

The original purpose of this bottom-up think tank in 1997 was to introduce needed common sense ideas into our political process. The "free preview Proactive Voter Movement pamphlet" contains a few good ideas that support the pledge below. We need to increase voter turnout to over 65%, because we need new political leaders free of bipartisan establishment control. The pledge and good ideas alone cannot establish a new political reality that honors liberty and justice for all in a more democratic republic. The pledge and pamphlet make us aware of "something wrong here" in our politics. After recognition of a problem, solutions become possible. Share this pledge.

The Proactive Voter Pledge

I, (Print Name) _________________________________________ , the undersigned citizen of the United States of America, pledge with my fellow citizens to legally register and vote in all local, state, and national elections for the rest of my life.  I consider the bipartisan power struggle between Democrats (DNC) and Republicans (RNC) a threat to the freedoms gained by the Declaration of Independence and later defined in the Bill of Rights under the Constitution of the United States of America. Special interest money donations to the DNC & RNC two-party monopoly rob our citizens of equal political representation within legislative bodies and executive branches at all levels of government. I must withdraw wholehearted support from all establishment Democratic Party and Republican Party candidates. I pledge to help elect qualified populist nonpartisan and proactive candidates to many local, state and national public offices in order to have equal representation under the law for all living natural citizens. We will Fire establishment bipartisan incumbents. Unite America. Everybody Vote! Fix Democracy.

Common Sense II is a name reverently borrowed from Thomas Paine, who published the original Common Sense pamphlet in January 1776. He came to the colonies less than two years before Thomas Jefferson wrote the Declaration of Independence. His Common Sense pamphlet played a large part in convincing the colonists of a need to separate from the British Crown. In our time, voters need common sense to separate from the D and R Political Parties to end corrupt financial control of our elections, of our governments, and of all our public policy decisions. Elect proactive candidates. We are the 99.999%. Occupy Elections. Occupy our dysfunctional Congress. Change is up to everyone. Together.

Thomas Paine believed in the "natural rights" of man, and was a professed "atheist." He may have been influenced in his religious beliefs by a need to rebel against kings and churches who claim to "rule by divine right." I believe he is the father of our political way of life. He is one man who made the "bill of rights" palatable to the society of his time. I owe him my freedom of religion and of speech. He is my all-time favorite revolutionary hero. Thomas Jefferson and Benjamin Franklin were not "atheists." However, they were proud to be deists. As deists, they believed in "God," but rejected revelation and the supernatural doctrines of Christianity.

We also owe them for favoring the separation of Church and State. Many of the colonists fled Europe to escape various tyrannical State Churches, religious persecution, and rule under their self-ordained religious truths. A Republic ruled by civil law, not by a moralistic tyranny of divine inspiration or authority, is our founders' greatest gift to humankind. The freedom of every citizen to determine his/her own philosophical, religious Truth is the greatest gift of our founding fathers to our citizens. The creativity allowed by our melting pot of intellectual and spiritual freedom has produced abundant invention and great wealth for our democratic republic.

My writing is appropriate for the political challenges of our time. (Civics Lesson)

Richard L. Stevenson in 1997 (Top of Page)

I am a lifelong populist nonpartisan voter and proactive political activist who was an active Reform Party leader. I was a delegate to the 1997, 1998, 1999, and "Real" 2000 Reform Party conventions. In 2000 at Long Beach, CA, John Hagelin/Nat Goldhaber were nominated as presidential candidates. I was also a delegate to the 2000 Natural Law Party/Reform Party Coalition Convention in Washington DC where John Hagelin/Nat Goldhaber were confirmed as coalition candidates for both parties. The national Reform Party Presidential campaign funds, $12.5 million dollars, were stolen in court through the misdeeds of Pat Buchanan and some top leaders in the Republican controlled Reform Party. Many Reform Party members lost their party, myself included. Pat Buchanan, a Republican double agent, radicalized and split my Ohio Reform Party.

2010: My 2010 campaign for Congress OH 1 was begun in December 2008 with updated web pages and campaign materials. Election day was November 02, 2010. Web pages: Citizens for Stevenson. My name appeared on all OH 1 Congressional General Election ballots as the endorsed Green Party candidate in November 2010. We nonpartisans were on the ballot in 2010. Again, at last. With very little money to campaign, we got nearly 2,000 votes anyway. Libertarian, Jim Berns, got nearly 3,000 votes on very little money also.

Rich campaigned with the same nonpartisan values and issues. When elected, he will be a proactive statesman lobbying for the nonpartisan individual interests of all citizens. Rich's 2010 Green Party candidate ballot access petition was completed and submitted on February 17, 2010 with more than the 25 required valid petition signatures needed for minor party Congressional candidates. The Green Party had Ohio ballot access for the first time in history. Voters were able to request a Green Party ballot at the May 4, 2010 Primary Election. Thank you for your Green Party primary votes. Thanks to everyone for your November General Election vote for Stevenson.

2012: The 2012 THRO pages http://cs2pr.us/THRO were published on February 14, 2011 to announce Rich's intention to be on the ballot on November 06, 2012. Congress OH1 campaign web pages were also updated to the new election year. Rich was on the November ballot for Congress OH1 in 2012. Stay tuned, http://cs2pr.us/Rich. More updates soon. "Waste" your vote on "Rich." Nonpartisan proactive voters could have won in November 2012. Stevenson got over 6,000 votes and Jim Berns got over 9,000 votes in 2012, over three times the number of votes in 2010. Again with very little money spent. A nonpartisan will win the OH 1 Congressional seat in the very near future. I am sure of it.

2016 and 2018: Did not get the 400 valid petition signatures needed to get on the KY 03 ballot for Congress. Only had a few hundred each year. See 2020. Will try again.

2020: [The year of covid-19; I am 78; no safe way to campaign] I published campaign pages http://cs2pr.us/Rich and the 2020 THRO pages http://cs2pr.us/THRO to be on the ballot in 2020 for U.S. Congress in Kentucky District 03, Jefferson County (Louisville), KY. I will explore for supporters of my campaign. I will be 78 years of age in January 2020. I know how to run a campaign now and have a reasonable chance to do well or even win the election. I will use the campaign to work toward the ratification of an "Equal Political Speech" amendment to the U.S. Constitution.
 http://cs2pr.us/Equal_Political_Speech.html. I will represent the 99.999%. When elected I will help occupy Congress for the 99.999%.

2022: I will Publish the 2022 Campaign pages and THRO Pages. I will convert the campaign pages and look for another candidate to use the pages in KY 03 to win KY 03in 2024. I am very unlikely to run. rls 07-04-21

2023 Onward: My efforts will be devoted to The Proactive Voter Movement. Unite America. Everybody Vote! Fix Democracy. Our_Voices

Election of the President: I supported Ralph Nader in 2000, 2004 and 2008, as the only cohesive populist nonpartisan voice in the Presidential elections. His message, vastly unheard, was one of unity of the nonpartisan populist masses. I have been an Ohio Green Party member and Central Committee participant since 2002. Nonpartisan for over fifty years! I supported Jill Stein, Green Party, for President in 2012. I supported Jill Stein, Bernie Sanders, and Elizabeth Warren for President in 2016. With Hillary Clinton on the ballot, I voted for Jill Stein, Green Party, for President. 2020 had the only reasonable outcome considering who was on the Presidential ballot and the need to defeat Trump and The Covid-19 virus. I voted for Joe Biden. To prevent a power mad Trump from having a second term. Rather than having a peaceful transfer of power as demanded by the Constitution Trump attempted to overthrow our government. As always, Trump remains a thug and a bully. Not worthy of our Presidency. We need new leadership chosen by Proactive Voters. Not Trump for certain.

President Barack Obama may or may not have made any noticeable positive change during his years served as President. I stand ready to applaud any success he or Joe Biden may have in solving our nation's problems. I will not support an establishment "D" or an "R" for election to be President of the U.S. in 2024. We need to elect a proactive nonpartisan President. Our populist majority, centrist, left and right, can elect a populist President to represent the 99.999%!

Open Presidential Debates: I am personally committed to vote for any qualified nonpartisan or proactive candidate I find on my ballot. Presidential debates with Ralph Nader, and other ballot qualified candidates in every Presidential debate in 2000, 2004, 2008, 2012, 2016 and 2020, would have given voters a realistic discussion of the real issues, and a means to consider a vote for one of several less well known ballot qualified candidates. With open Presidential debates in 2024 we could have a competitive election between more than two candidates. We could elect a person of greater integrity, someone like Ralph Nader, to become our nonpartisan President in a past or a future election year! Some populist candidate not influenced (bought) by special interests! We had another chance in 2016. We had to defeat Donald Trump in 2020 or lose our democratic republic to a likely dictator. I voted for Joe Biden for that reason alone. I hope we have a chance to vote again in 2024 for new nonpartisan leadership. We can vote again in 2024 hopefully with Trump off the ballot. We can do it. Become a proactive Voter. Take the Proactive Voter Pledge. Not Left. Not Right. Forward. Unite America. Occupy elections. Save our nation from the horrors of civil war. Dump Trump.

Instant Runoff Voting/Ranked Choice Voting: Everyone could have voted for their first choice if Instant Runoff Voting (IRV)/Ranked Choice Voting (RCV) had been used in the year 1980, 1992, 2000, 2004, 2008, 2012, 2016 and 2020 elections. With IRV/RCV there would be no "spoiler" candidate. The winner always gets a "majority" of votes cast in the final instant runoff. We all would have been able to cast a preferential vote on every candidate in the election to elect the new President. In the IRV/RCV system, all of your votes (yes, that is plural) would have meaning. Unfortunately, we all had just one vote for President in the uncertain elections of 2000, 2004, 2008, 2012, 2016 and 2020. The two monopoly parties won. We lost every time, every election. At least Donald Trump lost the too close 2020 election. Trump was the most disloyal President in history. He was and is totally ignorant of history and government.

I am very disappointed that King George II and Barack Obama were "selected" to the Presidency, twice. I oppose monarchy and hereditary rule in our democratic republic. The Presidency was purchased like dollar store trinkets. Sadly, the same statement would apply if Gore, Kerry or Hillary Clinton had become President. The upcoming Donald Trump term as President deserves the same statement. A partisan Supreme Court broke the line of Presidential succession in 2000 for the first time in U.S. history. The system remains broken at this point in our history. Historically, our elections have always been fixed by corrupt "legal" bribes and gerrymandering.

Nonpartisan Elections: Fixing elections threatens to be an increasingly blatant bipartisan habit. Polarization grows. Support of extreme values divided voters to help select Bush, in a very hate-based values war. Each half of the electorate has been taught to disrespect the deeply held values of the other half. The negatives muddy a steep slope slipping slowly toward eventual intolerance, confrontation, and violence. Free speech and tolerance are being challenged to a duel. Bush policy and the religious right nudged our republic slowly toward the possibility of a religious Civil War. We still look more and more like Northern Ireland and warring ethnic factions in divided Yugoslavia. We must get back to reason and law to stabilize our political process. Unite America.

(Top of Page) (Strategy) (Civics_Lesson) (How We Win)

To gain representation for the populist citizen super majority we must reject the election of Democrats and Republicans. Both parties are destructively bipartisan, as seen in the legal battle over the Presidency in Florida and Ohio. Both parties are a part of the over 200-year-old entrenched monopoly two-party system. Some would correctly say "dictatorship." Both parties rob our citizens of access and representation within legislative bodies and executive branches of government throughout the United States. Nonpartisan populists like you and me need to control our democratic republic to reform our election system. We must do more than just vote. We must proactively elect nonpartisan populist candidates to public office. We are the 99.999%. We can occupy elections. Fire establishment D's and R's. Become proactive voters. Unite America.

Our Winning Voter Demographics: About 85% of eligible voters are nonpartisan, including the usual 1% to 5% who vote for minor parties.

For instance, 85% "non-affiliated" voters in 1998 OH District One.

Jesse Ventura, Independence Party (Reform Party), Governor of MN, won his office as mayor (75% of the vote) and his office as MN governor in 1998 by attracting more registered and unregistered voters to the polls. Jesse won the Governor's election with 37% of the vote. The 65% voter turnout was 20% higher than any other midterm voter turnout in the country in 1998 in usual low turnout midterm elections. Forty-one percent (41%) of Jesse Ventura's votes were from new voters, registered on Election Day.

Fifteen Minutes: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wsBIcGrN7yA

HOW WE WIN

Populist nonpartisans are at least 74% of 115,000,000 registered voters nationwide. In addition, according to Common Cause, "another 100,000,000 age-eligible voters do not register to vote;" they are 100% nonpartisan. Altogether, there are roughly 185,000,000 (86% of 215,000,000) age eligible populist nonpartisan voters who could vote for and elect nonpartisan and proactive candidates in many elections. That leaves roughly 30,000,000 (14% of 215,000,000) age-eligible bipartisan "majority party likely voters" that provides the voter turnout that wins 99% of all elections by a narrow plurality of age-eligible voters. Obviously nonpartisan voters could win many elections if 65% of age eligible voters, or more, were registered to vote and voted in every State in every election. Jesse was a great populist candidate who was impressive in all five 1998 MN Gubernatorial debates. Minnesota has same day voter registration, which was a huge factor in Govenor Ventura's win. The nonpartisan Majority needs same-day voter registration in every State to win, all fifty States. We need to remember how Jesse won, so we can win now, without universal same day voter registration.

HOW WE WIN: (Young Voters, Independents, and Unregistered Voters)

One alternative solution, to having same-day voter registration in every state, is proactive 100% voter registration and over 65% proactive voter turnout in every state in every election. Win. Up to the proactive 99%! Up to us. Become a proactive voter. Have a voice. Unite America. We can. Everybody vote! Fix democracy! OCCUPY ELECTIONS!!

:HOW WE WIN

Good nonpartisan and proactive candidates are likely to win any election with a 65% or more voter turnout. Most elections have a turnout of far below 50% of registered voters (30,000,000 likely D and R voters) (115,000,000 total registered) and 0% of unregistered age-eligible voters (100,000,000 U.S. total). Participation in elections by over 65% of age-eligible proactive voters can elect new nonpartisan leaders 100% of the time in every election. Proactive voters can probably fire every D and R career incumbent!

Education: Proactive nonpartisan voters can easily elect any candidate they choose into every public office in our country. The main problem is education to let everyone know that the votes of "populist" nonpartisan voters already elect the winner in every election. All elections! Together, we have good reason to become proactive voters. We can elect nonpartisan and proactive candidates to public office. Every public office! Every time.

(Strategy)  (One Vote)  (Civics_Lesson) (How We Win)

The second problem is highly restrictive ballot access laws that exist at some level in all fifty states. To easily elect nonpartisan leaders, we can increase voter turnout and voter registration. Everyone can learn to circulate ballot access petitions, to become politically proactive. Moreover, we can find reasonably good nonpartisan and proactive candidates to stand for the numerous public offices we need to win. Our ballot access petitions can put more proactive candidates on every ballot.

 

One Vote:

The Power of One Vote: The American people must be educated to discover the extreme lack of popular support for the Democratic and Republican parties. Both parties are well financed by special interests and they make a lot of noise on TV and Radio. The power of the parties is zero in the quiet of the voting booth. Each citizen has the power of one vote on a secret ballot in the voting precinct where we live. We must all learn to use the power of our single vote to gain representation in every Congressional District (435) and in every U.S. Senate seat (100) in all fifty states. Fire establishment D's and R's. Your single secret ballot vote is the key to the power you share with other citizens — We Are The 99.999%. Occupy Elections! Elect 99.999% candidates. Become a proactive voter.  (Pledge)  (Civics_Lesson) (How We Win)

There are no major parties in our republic. We have two minor-sized monopoly parties. The two monopoly parties are bullies with bragging rights. Each voter can fire the bullies. Each voter can have real friends in high places. Those friends are populist nonpartisan or proactive candidates from our communities. Elect those people-friendly candidates to have a voice in your governments — local, state and national. Become a proactive citizen in your voting precinct. We are the 99.999%. Unite America! Everybody Vote. Elect 99.999% candidates. Fix Democracy.

Winning 10% to 40% of all public offices all over our republic by qualified proactive nonpartisan and Proactive candidates can be done. To be free of the destructive bipartisan power struggle between the DNC & RNC and to connect government back to our people, it must be done.

Solutions to many of our persistent problems can be accomplished by scaling down big money corruption in our election process. To move toward representative government we must eliminate soft money and PAC money from all election campaigns. We can have a more democratic republic.

 

The IVA Nonpartisan "Fulcrum Strategy": We can elect independent and proactive candidates, 44 in the U.S. House and 10 in the U.S. Senate = 10%, to end bipartisan majority control of Congress. Bipartisan warfare to get majority control of the U.S. House and the U.S. Senate would end immediately. Without a legislative majority, career incumbent Democrats and Republicans would have to work with our newly elected populist Congresspersons to find consensus solutions to our long term national problems in the light of day. Real solutions have been blocked for decades by the corrupt special interest influence of money on all Congressional legislation. Legislation bought by special interest lobbyists is a prominent long term feature of the corrupt Career Incumbent Washington Culture maintained by the establishment bipartisan two-party system. Bipartisan incumbent crimes have been well hidden from public view for many decades. Use the power of your one vote to fire establishment D and R incumbents. Yes we can. We Are The 99.999%.
