Radical centrism by any other name would smell as sweet. The partisan polarization in this country is sickening. Political posturing for the sake of hurting the other party, not because it truly advocates something better, is taking a toll on this country. Lets hope the radical middle can gain some traction.

Amazing to listen to James Turner. "out of the blue," so I looked him up and his book and , guess what ? Mark Satin already knows about this. He has known since March 2009. Turner makes the point that Federalist # 10 offers leverage to discuss what we refer to as Radical Centrism. That is, we can enlist James Madison for our cause if we interpret his warnings against factions as implying partisan politics of Democrats vs Republicans. I have just, almost literally moments ago, learned about Turner and the book he co-authored. I need some time to study this, as much as I can find in next few days. Here is Mark's review. Something maybe we can discuss in the near future. Billy ---------------------------------------------------------------------
