Attention : Anyone here ever watch PBS News ? Big splash today about a brand new group calling itself " No Labels." The phrase "Radical Centrist" or "Radical Centrism" was used at least 2 or 3 times in the TV interview. Not much info on their site, but they are really new, so I guess there will be more in the days ahead. The interview mentioned several Congressmen and Senators who are in the RC camp, as we might characterize them. This is bipartisan, both Ds and Rs. But the interview included remarks about Indies. Could be important. Discussion might be a good idea so that maybe we can come up with ideas to deal ourselves in. Billy ========================================================== from the site : No Labels MORE THAN 1000 AMERICANS FROM ALL 50 STATES CHECK PRECONDITIONS AT THE DOOR More than 1000 people are gathering this morning in New York City at the founders meeting of _No Labels_ (http://www.nolabels.org/) . Republicans, Democrats and Independents – from many backgrounds and all 50 states—who are concerned about the excessive polarization and hyper-partisanship of American politics, are coming together to ask their leaders to put the labels aside and do what’s best for America. We are united by a commitment to encourage our leaders to work together and develop practical solutions to our nation’s problems. Today is just the beginning. No Labels will create a space where ideas can be judged on their merits, not their conformity to pre-fabricated stereotypes. It is the creation of a new voice—one that has been missing from the current political system, a counterweight to ideological extremes. Today’s event will feature citizens, civic leaders, politicians, academics, business leaders and college students from over 90 different universities. The event will be live streaming from 9:00 am until 3:00 pm EST on _NoLabels.org_ (http://www.nolabels.org/) (direct link to the live stream
