This web site is populated by some of the most knowledgeable and articulate liberals in this country. We talk, we tell our stories, and we pass on the stories of others. All of that is good. It is important, and it is productive.
Now it is time for us to organize. We have a moral imperative to do our best to rescue the American Middle Class from extinction. It is time for us to wake up, and for us to make use of our advantage, our numbers. We are the 99% who exist on the scraps that the wealthy allow us to have. Even that is disappearing into the back hole of their greed.
I am not a leader. This is not a task that I am physically capable of performing. Nor am I an effective public speaker. Many of you will feel the same about yourselves.
But out there somewhere, is a leader, who will work with us to formulate a platform that all Democrats can support. We must put our differences aside, and find where we agree. That conjunction, the places where we agree, that is our platform.
I challenge you, my fellow dailykos members, to begin this work. Someone out there will read this, and realize that he/she is the leader we are seeking. Declare yourself, tell us what platform points you would project for us.
Let us begin the work that the founder of his website meant for us to do. I'm ready.
