The California Independent Voter Project (CAIVP) is a non-profit organization dedicated to championing the independent minded voter and stimulating the public dialogue. CAIVP acts as an idea factory, described by its Chairman as a public policy venture capital fund, providing research from experts, analysts, and journalists of all ideologies, philosophies, and political affiliations on local, state, and federal issues. CAIVP encourages discussion, debate, and deliberation of public policy. Our aim is to raise awareness of important issues, engage our public officials, and elevate the political discourse. Our goal is to bridge the gap between the need for real change in public policy and the momentum for change amongst policymakers.

Finally, someone recognizes that things are pretty bad here -- bad to the point where business as usual doesn't work. Too bad the politicians can't come to a similar realization and stop the sniping. The furloughs are estimated to save $1.3 billion over the next year and a half, an amount that teeters toward the chump-change side of .....

Conventional political sentiment tells us that we are either for a particular proposition, or against it. We are told to support Proposition 8 if we believe in traditional marriage, or against if we believe in equality. What about those who believe that a government authority empowered by a simple majority, should not have the authority to tell dissenters that they have to share the majority's proclaimed moral virtues?

Proposition 8 is a Constitutional amendment initiative that eliminates the right of same-sex couples to marry within the state. Defines marriage as only between one man and one woman. The proposition is a reaction to a May 2008 Supreme Court ruling that struck down a 2000 law that restricted same sex couples from marriage under the equal protection clause of the California Constitution.

This complex initiative has five parts to it. First, it would expand treatment programs to drug offenders both in prison and out of prison. Second, its passage would modify parole-shortening it for some offenders, those who have typically committed nonviolent and few to no other offenses; in contrast, parole is increased for violent criminals.

At this time, if a girl under the age of 18 who is not legally married is currently serving in the United States armed forces, or has not been legally declared free from her parents' or guardians' custody and control seeks an abortion, she must wait at least forty-eight hours for an abortion. In that time, a physician, assumably the one that would perform said abortion, or his/her legal representative must notify the parent or guardian of the girl seeking the operation.

Proposition 3 authorizes the sale of $980,000,000 in bonds, which will be guaranteed by the State General Fund, for the purpose of granting funds to California's 13 children's hospitals. These grants would be paid over 30 years in amounts of $64,000,000/year. These grants will go to both public and private children's hospitals; 80 percent of them will go to private hospitals while 20 percent will go to public, University of California hospitals.
