This nation absolutely must move back toward the center—and I’m not just talking about finding compromises. I’m talking about reviving a spirit of civility and open debate that avoids petty divisiveness and pandering while promoting competent solutions and consensus building. I’m talking about fighting against the dishonest spin and blind adherence to partisan ideology that dominate our politics and replacing them with a heightened level of integrity and a deeper commitment to independent thinking. I’m talking about creating an environment where leaders within the two parties no longer have to run to their wings for support but can instead find robust support in a newly revitalized center.
