The middle class in America is under constant assault and until the middle class is educated about how they are helping to destroy their own class, this trend will continue. I want to start a grassroots organization that will educate and mobilize the middle class and teach them that progressive policies are what created the middle class in the first place. Middle Class America needs to understand that voting based on social issues almost always results in a weakening of the middle class. Read More

As we are all aware the middle class is being destroyed by the current administration and congress. I have often thought there should be better representation for the middle class. Too often the middle class are tricked into voting against their own best interests. What is needed is an organization like the AARP which specifically deals with helping to maintain and grow a large, vibrant middle class. Read More

Television has often been used as a tool for political messages and tonight was a perfect example. The HBO series "Six Feet Under" always opens with a death since it is a series based on the life of a family that owns a funeral parlor. Tonight they opened with a sister helping her brother kill himself since he felt it was better than living without three of his limbs. He used the same chemical they use to put a dog to sleep to end his misery. The mother of the soldier has the ribbons all over her car to support the troops. More below the fold Read More

It appears that Hillary will be challenged by Westchester County District Attorney Jeanine Pirro. Rudy will decide not to take the real chance that he would lose and ruin his 2008 run for the White House. Pataki was also though of as a challenger for Hillary but it seems that will not happen either. Pirro is already being helped by the likes of Sean Hannity as they prepare to try to get rid of Hillary. This is not the time to dump all over Hillary. She will need our support to retain her seat. Pirro's husband has been convicted of tax evasion on returns that she jointly signed so she has her problems but you know the right wing will do anything to unseat Hillary and this is what they have come up with.

It is becoming very clear that the democrats do not have a cohesive policy to counter the right wing fanatics that have taken over the Republican party. In order to compete against them we need to learn how to use their own tactics against them. Read More

After the election I posted a diary about ballot initiatives to get a national standard for voting. Congress will never take up this cause because this system benefits the republicans and they are in charge.
I am proposing simultaneous ballot initiatives in all 50 states in November 2005 that would get us clean elections in 2006. Below the fold are my ideas of what this initiative should accomplish. Read More
