DEMOCRACY FOR THE USA is committed to transforming the government of the United States from oligarchy to democracy. The democracy we envision and advocate is based on the ancient Athenian model and consists of sovereign Citizen Assemblies and random-sample Executive Councils.
WE ARE totally and unequivocally opposed to the present form of government in the U.S.A. as established by the U.S. Constitution.
WE THEREFORE oppose participation in elections, since elections are the primary means by which the oligarchy is perpetuated. Instead of working within the current flawed system or attempting piecemeal reform in any way, we advocate its wholesale replacement with democracy.
WE FURTHER recognize that street protest on particular issues alone--without an understanding of the imperative need for radical systemic change--is inadequate to the task at hand. Our sole task is the institutional empowerment of the vast majority of the American people and disempowerment of the current ruling elite. Our sole task is democracy for the U.S.A.!
