Hello Ash: Exciting stuff. It is good to see so many out of the box proposals and movements out there that are attempting to create a better country. My sense is that within all of this debate there is a new governing consensus emerging. Your site does seem to capture the emerging middle. I have a friend that is doing some similar things but has three core issues:
http://www.rebuilddemocracy.org/americanowl If you want to attract Tea Party activists (not Teavangelicals) you might want to use more robust language with respect to government. Reforming and making government smarter and more efficient do not go far enough. Limiting, shrinking, reducing, cutting are words that appeal to that group. We are trying to stimulate a movement as well. We see our mission as idea generating and synthesizing and taking those ideas to action. www.aplaceforpossibilities.org Kevin Kervick Hello Centroids: Although I've been a member of the group for a couple of months now, this is my first post. In July, I launched an effort to form the California Moderate Party. Our goal is to qualify in 2014 and as I look to to a re-launch this coming January, I'd love to incorporate your feedback. If you have a few minutes, please head over to http://CAMod.org and take a look around the site. Then, either reply to this message or email me directly ([email protected]) with your honest comments about: a.. What do you like? b.. What do you not like? c.. What's missing? d.. What would you change? I think it's a safe bet to assume that, no matter where you live, you're interested in helping this nascent movement of radical centrism reach critical mass. To be sure, we all seem to be at a point when - with efforts such as Americans Elect, No Labels, Ruck.us and Uniters.org emerging - we can start to glean from the lessons of past successes and failures. As political innovators, it's immensely valuable to keep improving our message, strategy, and tactics. The current experimentation that's happening is priceless in terms of strengthening the viability of our movement. I do realize that not all members of this group are interested in starting a movement so much as pursuing an intellectual hobby; your constructive feedback would be helpful, nonetheless.
