I don’t have any interest in starting a political movement. I just want to live life and be left alone as long as I’m peaceful with others. I’m trying to figure out how to do that. If you’re interested in doing the same — and if you want to do it without the shrill and angry confrontations of politics — I hope you’ll join me in a conversation that might lead to better lives for all of us.
My own political evolution is a long and twisting story. I grew up in a generally conservative household, but I was taught to be a political independent. I also learned — from school and from my own reading — to be an intensely patriotic kid. I believed in our political leaders. I believed in the political system. I believed in the morality of this country’s role in the world.
Today is surgery for me; I’ll give you news and be back when I can
As a child, I was a very capable liar, because I learned from a narcissist
Without peaceful breakup plan, U.S. faces violent, angry collapse
We can’t defeat existing system; we must build better one instead
Why do we often attract the folks who are most destructive for us?
Just underneath a civilized veneer, savage conqueror lives in my DNA
