My perspective is that you can't really change or inspire people in the abstract, only the concrete. For example, it wasn't conservative philosophy that created Reagan Democrats, it was, well, Reagan. :-) My goal in developing a centrist vision, and eventually movement, is simply to lay the groundwork. Eventually we would need to create, find, or be adopted by an actual political leader who is hungry for new solutions. Only after that would "real people" from other camps be likely to sign on.
