 More Centrist that believed

The quote from President Herbert Hoover, “The only trouble with capitalism is capitalists. They’re too damned greedy,” reflects a critique of how individual behavior can undermine the broader system. It is a reminder that even within a system like capitalism, the actions of individuals can lead to a hostile outcome when driven by excessive greed.


The Democratic Party supports capitalism but advocates for regulations and policies that ensure fair competition, protect consumers and prevent abuses of power. The Democratic Party seeks to balance market efficiency with protections for corporations, workers and the environment. Providing equity in the business industry will promote competition and keep prices low by advertising monopolies. 


The Democratic Party supports revenue policies, which ensure an equitable tax system for the wealthy,  corporations and the average citizen.   

The Democratic Party is committed to religious freedom which includes separation of church and state. 


The Democratic Party often emphasizes evidence-based policy-making and practical solutions to complex problems. This includes addressing economic inequality, healthcare access, climate change, and other pressing issues through policies grounded in research and real-world outcomes.

Overall, the Democratic Party's policy formation is driven by a pragmatic approach that seeks to address societal issues while balancing economic growth with social justice.

 Communication The other day, I was listening to a podcast from the Lincoln Project. Rick Wilson was interviewing Adam Frisch, the candidate for Colorado’s 3rd Congressional District, and they were discussing the importance of speaking to voters with dignity. This got me thinking—what does it truly mean to communicate with dignity? More importantly, how does one ensure that the person receiving that respect understands they are being treated with dignity? Webster defines dignity as “formal reserve or seriousness of manner, appearance, or language,” while respect is defined as “a relation or reference to a particular thing or situation.” Mr. Frisch pointed out that voters don’t like being talked down to, and he’s absolutely right. However, if simply pointing out misinformation or correcting a false belief is perceived as condescending, then our country is in deeper trouble than we realize. Consider this: how does one respectfully engage with someone who insists that Democrats cann...

  Faith and Judgment There is a time for everything under the heavens. Life ebbs and flows in seasons, each with its own purpose and meaning. As Ecclesiastes so poetically reminds Christians, there is “a time to be born and a time to die, a time to plant and a time to uproot.” These words reflect the rhythm of existence—joy and sorrow, building and tearing down, peace and conflict—all woven into the fabric of our humanity. While these seasons may seem random or even burdensome at times, the Scripture assures us that God has made everything beautiful in its time. Yet, as finite beings, we cannot fully fathom the vastness of God's plan, for He has set eternity in Christian hearts while veiling the full scope of His work. This truth sustains me. It reminds me that life on Earth, with all its toils and trials, has meaning far beyond what Christians can perceive. Christians are called to embrace the gifts of God: to find joy in our labor, to eat, drink, and live in satisfaction, for the...

  DEMOCRATIC PARTY part 2 Earlier, I wrote a blog discussing the future of the Democratic Party, with a focus on reshaping its nominating process. In that piece, I emphasized the need for the Democratic National Committee (DNC) to reduce the number of delegates at the nominating convention and raise the percentage of delegates required to secure the presidential nomination. While I still believe these changes are necessary, I now think they shouldn’t be the first priority. After further consideration, I believe the Democratic National Committee's (DNC) top priority should be reorganizing its leadership structure. Currently, the DNC's officers include a Chairperson, five Vice Chairpersons, a Treasurer, a Secretary, and a National Finance Chairperson. To strengthen the party, no Chairperson position should be held by someone currently in elected office. Additionally, instead of having five Vice Chairpersons, the DNC should adopt a regional structure, with Regional Chairpersons re...
