I'm An Independent. I'm A Centrist. A New Generation Is Arriving That Has Grown Up With A Multiplicity Of Choice In Every Aspect Of Their Lives, And Yet Politics Is The Last Place That They Are Told That They Should Be Satisfied With A Choice Between Brand A And Brand B. It Doesn't Fit The Way They Think. It Doesn't Fit The Way They Live.

By Pumping Up Hyper-partisanship, Our Country (america) Is Playing With Forces That Can Easily Get Out Of Control. We Are Giving Purpose And Cover - And Sometimes A Sense Of Purpose - To The Crazy Among Us. We Are Encouraging A Culture Of Extremism
