[WATCH] The Most Important Question Right Now

Dear Friend, The conversation that dominates Democratic circles today is the need to hurry — to make up for lost time and get out there on the campaign trail — but there’s a counter argument to that: the old expression “Decide in haste, repent at leisure." The automatic anointment of Kamala Harris…

How Best to Meet the Moment

Dear John, Kamala Harris unveiled her agenda today and it focuses on women’s reproductive rights and prosecuting Donald Trump. Yes, women’s bodily autonomy must be protected and expanded at all costs, but any Democratic nominee would stand for that. As far as prosecuting Donald Trump is concerned, …

The Race is On!

Dear John, Okay everyone, the race is on!  We are not remaining quiet as the drive accelerates to coronate Kamala Harris. I spent the last year and a half of my life watching the coronation of Joe Biden from a front row seat. I knew it was wrong, and my points proved to be well taken. The coronatio…

BIDEN HAS STEPPED ASIDE AND WE ARE STEPPING UP

“First they came for…”

A Commitment to Nonviolence

Dear Friend, I made the above video after yesterday’s tragic events. My prayers were and are with the victims of the horrible incident, and I’m grateful that the former president was not seriously wounded. Political violence is completely unacceptable and has no place in our society. It’s importan…

The Most Qualified Candidate

Dear Friend,In President Biden’s press conference last night, he mentioned several times he was the most “qualified" person for the job. In many ways, of course, there is no denying that the President’s prodigious career has given him tremendous experience and an institutional memory of how Washin…

The Guts To Tell It Like It Is

Stop Ceding to Donald Trump

The State of Our Economy

Dear Friend, I think we should talk about the state of our economy.   How is it possible that TV pundits say the economy is good, when 70% of Americans say they live with constant economic anxiety? I guess it depends on who it’s good for. The main problem with the U.S. economy isn’t even financial…

America’s Mission

Dear Friend, Happy July 4th!  On July 4, 1776, 56 men signed the Declaration of Independence. By doing so they were risking their lives, for if the British had won the Revolutionary War they would have all been hanged as traitors against the King of England.  In signing the Declaration they introd…
