Content: The Centrist Party (CP) opposes the abuse of government by representatives that offer legislation that is self-serving or intended to aid in re-election rather than support the public interest. The CP does not support candidates, propositions or policies that enable the agenda of special interest groups while sacrificing the common good of the general public and the national interest of the United States of America. Economics
Free markets have important self regulatory qualities and government should act in a discretionary manner in order to actively stabilize the economy over the business cycle in order to enable healthier economic potential. Certain derivative markets, properly regulated, have illustrated such stabilizing effects in the 20th century. Monitoring market changes, regulation and capacity, in relation to supply, demand and resource capacity, provides a basis for longer term considerations. Initiatives, Propositions and Policy
The Centrist Party supports initiatives and propositions that support its mission statement and goals, and will endorse or oppose such initiatives, propositions and policy based on these guidelines. Government Reform
The Centrist Party is in favor of government and campaign reform with open primaries and redistricting rules devised and supervised by independent council. Responsibility of Elected Officials
All elected officials have a responsibility to the public interest and the common good, not merely the good of those who voted for them. Common Sense in policy direction should be the rule. Elected office is not to be taken advantage of for special interests.
