Greens emphasize environmentalism, decentralization and local autonomy, in keeping with a commitment to non-hierarchical participatory democracy. The party platform states a number of social justice positions, including support for a federally funded commitment to end poverty.


Independents say they are dedicated to encouraging normal people to run for office, and that it is a civic responsibility to join the debate and provide positive solutions: "More candidates, less apathy". Anyone can run so long as they are eligible to hold the office that they seek; candidates are taken on "first come, first served" basis. The party thus attempts to allow voters to have more options than the regular partisan candidates of the Republicans and the Democrats by permitting average citizens to run for office. Most party campaigns are grassroots-financed and run.

Libertarians upholds the principle of individual liberty. Libertarians maintain that all persons are the absolute owners of their own lives, and should be free to do whatever they wish with their persons or property, provided they allow others the same liberty. In continental Europe, and to a lesser extent Ireland and Britain, the older political meaning of libertarianism prevails, as a synonym for anarchism, adapted in late 19th century France as a term that would be more acceptable to the authorities.
