Top down declarations of policy do not work.
Our team is developing a new approach. We need your help and your input. We need to learn where are blind spots are. We need you to share your perspective on the problems if we want to have any chance of understanding the whole issue. None of us is as smart as all of us.
This is our idea:
- Set out our philosophy of government.
- Identify areas that we believe are important.
- Draft policy Concepts based on our initial perspective of the problem
- Open ourselves up to meaningful public participation.
This is the most important part: Please tell us what we missed. Help us understand what we are not aware of.
We have a great team, but we’re only this good because each of us takes the time to listen. Each of us is willing to be wrong or admit ignorance and then learn. It is our most sincere hope that you will lend us your experience and expertise.
Bit by bit we will release policy over the course of the campaign, we hope this helps us have a series of meaningful dialogues which will support our movement toward a better system.
Our political philosophy is simple: True freedom only comes from true equity.
There is a gap between the aspirations of the American Experiment, and the truth of our American Reality. Once we are truly free to be ourselves and each of us has truly equal opportunity, we will have achieved the American Dream. This breaks down into two foundational truths:
People are People.
Human equity demands that no law exists that limits the freedoms or unalienable rights of any people.
Equal Opportunity.
Economic equity means that so long as our zip-code, gender, or race are better predictors of our health and wealth than our individual actions, we are not truly free.
Now is our moment. Together we can design and build the future we deserve.
