Inland Empire Progressive

My campaign for the 63rd AD County Central Committee is going great! I feel very optimistic about our prospects in November. If we as Progressives United now and went after every winnable seat, I know we would be able to have a Democratic Majority.

It is a historic time to be a Progressive in these United States of America. The 21st Century will be the beginning of a new era. This era will mark a dramatic paradigm shift in the way we govern, the choices we make, and the struggles this shift entails. Candidly, there will be no easy choices going forward. We, as a nation and as individuals, have squandered our savings and are deeply in debt. In addition, we are in a nascent economic recovery due to Keynesian policies implemented under the Obama Administration. These policies, though necessary, require government to step in temporarily to make up for the lack of consumer and business spending adding to our deficit. Finally, we have an opposition party who obstructs to no end while whipping the country into an emotional frenzy for no other reason than they have no good alternative policy proposals to offer the country. In short, ou...

I am running for the Democratic Central Committee in order to turn it into a professional and competitive organization. I do not know why our Central Committee is weak, all I know is that we have failed to hold our electeds accountable for too long. Our Central Committee needs to be strong to build a Progressive foundation in the Inland Empire. The San Bernardino County Democratic Central Committee is in position to help elect capable candidates to take on the Developer-Fueled Corruption that Conservatives have prostituted for so long throughout our county. This is offensive!!! But where is the outrage, the change of the guard that comes after corrpution spews forth when Republican evils come to the light of day? This has to change! Republicans in this county and throughout the state cannot just come to our county and believe they can sieze our land and resources without a fight. It is not enough to turn th...

The governor has decided not only to take on unions in this budget battle, but also cut the whole public transportation budget in a bait and switch scheme to provide "relief" at the pump for POV driver's, while pocketing the rest to cover the shortfall in the general fund. Now not only are unionized transportation workers taking a hit because of it, but those who depend on public transportation to get to and from work will suffer because of it. Thank you Arnold and your conservative allies in the legislature for the low tax, small government rule. You just contributed about 3 to 4 percentage points to unemployment in the Inland Empire (2nd to Detroit). Yet we send the same jabronies to Sacramento every time. Conservative government service with a smile. Below is the link: http://www.sbsun.com/news/ci_14259001

Repubs may be sharks but what are Progressives? DOLPHINS!!!

Our principles are Equality, Sacrifice, and the Common Good. Liberalism's history represents these values to protect the weakest members of our society. I will elaborate on each one in future posts and show that these values can counter the Conservative values of small government, stong national defense, and "individual" repsonsibility. Progressives will do best to establish these values as the core to which to build on. The gauntlet has been thrown ladies and gentlemen which side do we choose to stand on.

Over the course of 30 years America has been consumed by conservative ideology. From Reagan, Bush I, Clinton, and Bush II we have been victim of a steady bombardment that government is large, incompetent and slow to respond to the needs of its citizen. However, these same men and women have exploited the system for their personal gain. We as Progressives believe in government that is for the people, by the people, and of the people. I disregard the arguments by the psuedo-pop(ulism) right wing tyrants and will pursue with every fiber of my being to argue in a spirited and rhetorical way to send them back to the graveyard of ideas!
