Ernie : The trick, all along, has been an answer to the question-- "How do we reach such people ?" By definition the leaders we would like to appeal to are busy and don't have time for reading every e-mail that shows up in their in box. A good referral would be an excellent open sesame, but we don't even have that, not so far anyway. We are stuck with not knowing how to get the level of recognition we need to get this thing off the ground That is the crux of the problem. IMHO, anyway.

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.
