The Independent American Party IS The CONSTITUTION Solution Party
We find solutions to most issues within the Constitution and Constitutional Principles found in the CONSTITUTION. The Independent American Party (IAP) IS 'The Constitution Solution Party' for National issues, Local & State issues, municipal and parish topics. We follow the Constitution - the road-map our Founding Father's and the Hand of Providence gave us - to find the proper role of government and the solutions to the woes of today from TOO MUCH Government ... excessive government over-reach ... illegal rules and regulations (masquerading under the 'color-of-law') ... down right 21st Century tyranny!
WE THE PEOPLE are no longer the ones controlling and telling government what to do. .....
WE are being 'put upon' by a huge Central Government reminescent of the Colonial Period's battle with issues 'put upon' the American colonies by Great Britain's government. (However, we do not advocate violent revolution, but a strong and peaceful and Constitutional Solution.)
The I.A.P. (Independent American Party) suggests we are in need of a non-violent revolution, taking back our rights and restoring our Nation (as well as the Constitution, the Bill of Rights, AND the Declaration of Independence, back to their FULL GLORY with the intended meaning and interpretation as the Founders saw and meant it) from the Progressive and Liberal establishment who have taken over and usurpt power from WE THE PEOPLE!

The National Independent American Party (NIAP) began as the Utah Independent American Party.
On May 16th, 1998, the Utah IAP held a straw vote favoring the formation of a National Independent American Party. A committee of six individuals was selected to initiate the organization and by Nov 7, 1998 the National IAP was officially recognized by a binding vote of 79%.
In January 1999 the national IAP began holding semi-annual National Conferences. The national chairman attended a number of state and national conventions of other like-minded third parties across the nation to build ties. Our web site (launched in September, 1998) flourished, and we attracted members in about forty states.
Party Growth
In 2001 the IAP grew from one state party (Utah) to three organized state parties (Minnesota, Tennessee and Utah), and twelve prospective state parties. Area Coordinators were assigned to each of four regions of the country.
The IAP adopted its first National Platform in August, 2002, and ended the year with three organized and 18 prospective state parties.
In 2003 the Party changed the structure of its officer positions from the traditional Chair, Vice Chair, Secretary and Treasurer, and elected a Chair and 4 Vice-Chairs.
By 2004 the party involvement dwindled, and it was unable to maintain ballot status in any state; however, the party was later revitalized and soon gained ballot access in Utah and New Mexico. In the 2014 election cycle, the IAP supported a total of 31 candidates in local, state, and federal campaigns across nine states.
Today, the IAP of Utah continues to grow right here. (Nationally with members in all 50 states and the District of Columbia). At the end of 2022 (the last report was Nov 14, 2022), the IAP of Utah is a party with 75,387 registered voters in the State of Utah (keeping it the third largest party in the state - more than the Libertarians, Constitution, and United Utah parties combined and doubled !!)
[the following 'End of Year' numbers and monthly figures below are from the Utah Lt. Gov. list of registered voters by party :(https://voteinfo.utah.gov/current-voter-registration-statistics/)].
See how we've grown!

While we say:
. "We were given our name in the 19th Century, organized in the 20th Century, and in the 21st Century it is our time to fulfill our mission;"
... we also realize it will take significant work to "fulfil our mission."(... to restore the republic ....)
Actually, the name of the party comes from an 1844 Presidental Candidate who ran, not as a Whig (it wouldn't become the Republican party for another ten years - 1854) or as a Democrat, but as an Independent American for the highest office in the land. He was also a religious leader who looked into the future and said:
"There will come a time when there will be two great political parties. One will be called the Republican, and the other Democrat. These two parties will go to war with each other and out of these two parties will spring another party, which will be the Independent American Party. ..."
That man was Joseph Smith. On June 19,1844, when he was running for Presidency of the United States he made the statement and his American Political Prophecy was recorded in the journal of Mosiah Lyman Hancock.
Parable of the Flag
We also remind people that the US Flag portends three parties - according to Cliven Bundy, who gave us this tidbit:
We all know the good old Red, White and Blue, also known as our National Emblem, 'Old Glory," our Flag. We all know (politically) who the Red party is... (the Republican or GOP). And we all know who the Blue party is ... (the Democrats). ............... But who is the party representing the White Stars and Stripes?
Why the Independent American party, of course!
Ezra Taft Benson is quoted as saying:
"Voting for the lesser of two evils is still evil." Which we interpret to mean the leadership of both of the two major parties (Dem & Rep/GOP; DNC & RNC) are corrupt and 'evil.'
So why are the voters still voting for the 'lesser of two evils' and surprised when they are still getting the same old 'evil ' result?? Didn't Albert Einstein call that concept 'insanity'? Something to consider!!
Look to the viable THIRD Option ... THE INDEPENDENT AMERICAN party. The Constitutional SOLUTION Party !
As Samuel Adams said, clear back in 1774:
"(THIS) COUNTRY SHALL BE INDEPENDENT,
. AND WE WILL BE SATISFIED WITH NOTHING SHORT OF IT."

15 Principles *short version"
We declare that the 15 Principles of Liberty and Proper Government must not be compromised to maintain a 'Proper Government' in our Constitutional Republic ... in the United States of America ... we are NOT a democracy (sorry Democrats !)
They include (with some emphasis added):
• free governments are based on moral law (1)
• proper government should protect God-given rights of all citizens
(life, liberty, and happiness - aka:property) (2, 4, 5, 6, 13)
• the Constitution is a solemn compact which all officers of government are under duty to obey by oath (3) [emphasis added]
• we are at war with the enemies of freedom and our God-given liberties (i.e., Communism, Socialism, etc., in whole or in part) (7, 8) (e.g, CRT, ESG, etc.)
• all citizens should bear their fair share of the cost of government (9) [drat!]
• we believe in honest 'Constitutional' money (gold and silver coinage) (10) (not paper IOUs)
• each state is sovereign (11) (and should not be beholding to the Central Government, in Washington D.C. either financially or otherwise)
• treaties or agreements with other countries (or world organizations) should not deprive any U.S. citizens of any constitutional rights (aka: God-given rights, therefore they can't deprive or limit them either!) (14)
• it is a violation of the Constitution to weaken our military to the point required to protect the States and our borders from invasion (15)
