Arizona Socialist Party/http://arizona_socialist.tripod.com/platform/Political Structure

The Socialist Party stands for political activity independent of the two major corporate parties. We view electoral activity as animportant component of the struggle for fundamental social change. Participation in elections (local, state and national) is a valuable means of clarifying our position on a wide range of issues, of broadly disseminating our principles and programs, and of asserting and reaffirming our commitment to the democratic process.

Grassroots Democracy
1-We call for the overhaul of the constitution of the United States in order to achieve a diverse legislative body.
2- We call for ballot access laws that give all political parties a fair chance to have their candidates appear on the ballot.
3- We support the introduction of proportional representation at every level of government.
4- We call for full representation for the US territories of Guam and Puerto Rico, all Native American reservations, and the District of Columbia.
 
Fair Elections
The Socialist Party supports the public financing of candidates for public office as long as this funding extends to the candidates of alternative political parties.
1- We call for the closing of the loophole sanctioned by the Supreme Court under which candidates can spend an unlimited sum of their personal wealth on their own campaigns.
2- We call for equal access to media for all political parties.
