From the Clarion Call to Unite Committee (CCTUC) website, June 28th, 2013:
On June 18th, the National Independent American Party unanimously endorsed this resolution, which was drafted and introduced by IAP Affiliations Coordinator & CCTUC National Chairman, Cody Quirk:
“Whereas, the Clarion Call To Unite Committee and it’s goals of unifying those third parties that are Principled and True to the belief of restoring our Constitutional Republic, protecting the Sanctity of Life, and returning America back to it’s Christian-inspired foundations -is not only in conformity with the Mission and Principals of the Independent American Party, but a virtuous work and a necessary goal that the IAP desires to participate in, and help accomplish.
“Whereas, not only will the IAP fully take part and assist the CCTUC in its goals of uniting the parties as one national entity, but the IAP will also answer the ‘Clarion Call to Unite’ and agree to serve as the main vehicle for the CCTUC in combining with like-minded parties that are in agreement and general conformity with the Principals & Beliefs of the IAP -as either a single, national political party, or in a permanent national alliance of the various constitutionalist and principled-conservative third parties that support the goal of unity among fellow constitutionalists and dedicated Patriots that strive to see the decades of infighting, disunity, and even sectarianism among the parties and ranks of fellow Independent Americans come to a complete end and unite in order to break the stranglehold of the major parties and their elected subordinates upon our own government and our once great Constitutional Republic.
“Therefore, the IAP will not only join ranks with the CCTUC and the other parties that support it, but, once a general consensus on the formal steps to take in uniting the other participating political parties is reached; the IAP will then agree to set up and hold a formal, Organizational Convention with the other participating parties and the CCTUC no later then December 31st of this year, being 2013. With the details and specifics of which will first be agreed upon by a formal vote of the IAP’s National Committee and it’s leadership, in accordance with IAP’s Bylaws and regulations at a set time and before a date for the Organizational Convention itself is set.
“In conclusion, the IAP will continue to reach out to the other political parties which are in agreement with the Mission, Principles, and beliefs of the IAP, and in restoring our Constitutional Republic and redeeming it’s Christian-inspired foundations- but have yet to, or refuse to answer the Clarion Call To Unite, or even participate in dialogue with the CCTUC, and humbly ask them to put aside any mistrust and false assumptions, and do what is best for These United States and the American People; to join with us under one banner and get the ball rolling on the Restoration of this Nation, and returning Liberty & Integrity to it.”
“Sincerely,”
– The Leaders & Members of the National Independent American Party
The leaders of the CCTUC would like to express their thanks and gratitude to the National IAP in answering the Clarion Call To Unite and furthering the cause of third-party unity among all constitutionalists and principled-conservatives.

@7 Generally correct, although it depends on the audience.
Professionally I am a public relations specialist and a veteran political campaigner. In politics we use what we refer to as key words or power words. These words or are things that we have created to convey and message and we’ve engineered to mean different things.
Far-Left and Far Right are derogatory. Their used to say someone is an zealot, an ideologue, an extremist.
If you don’t navigate these words well, you can create a real disaster around your message or brand.
Nick, I don’t consider us “far right”, but constitutionalism & common sense are actually quite compatible.
Yep, the Clarion Call To Unite is indeed moving forward.
There’s some confusion in the use of the terms “right” and “conservative” in the US, because the American tradition includes strong elements of what has historically and globally been known as liberalism.
When I hear the term far right, I usually think of nationalist parties like the British National Party, the French National Front, Jobbik in Hungary or the American Freedom Party in the U.S. So basically, I associate the the term far right with nationalism and even ethnic seperatism.
Whether or not that’s a fair characterization, it’s something the mainstream media promotes. Which is funny because nationalist parties have some fascist elements to them that have nothing to do with conservatism, like supporting economic corporatism and a stronger, centralized state.
Far right and common sense in the same sentence. Thanks for my daily laugh.
How refreshing, common sense coming from the far right. About time isn’t it?
