Time for something new

As I look at the way our two political parties have evolved over the past several years, I have become disenchanted with both. We have reached a point where the democratic party is more fiscally conservative than the republican party. Yet the republican party still maintains the moral right (both meanings intended).
We need a new party that will continue to embrace the moral issues which are still precious to a majority of Americans, and will be as fiscally conservative as all Americans deserve. This election, as much as any before, has served to highlight our need as a nation to free ourselves from economic entanglements with any other nation - or group of nations. We need another revolution. We need to free ourselves from the economic tyranny we have created for ourselves.
It is time - to be energy independent.
It is time - to be fiscally independent.
It is time - to lead the world again in research, development, and manufacturing; as well as invention.
It is time - to keep jobs here at home.

We once were all these things.........
Then we lost our vision; and "where there is no vision, the people perish."

Please - share your ideas about how we declare our fiscal independence. Be specific.
We are Americans. We can do this.
I believe in you!

A Beginning

I have long wanted to create a forum in which to discuss politics from a personal perspective. In other words, I wish to talk about how politics affects me as an individual, and how it affects each of you. I hope we can generate discussion and debate on topics that cover the full spectrum of the political arena.
As we do so, please let me know what might make it a more user friendly blog, for I wish the discussion to flow as easily as the ideas.
Thank you.
