Wednesday Mar 22, 2017
Wednesday Mar 22, 2017
I have been thinking a lot lately about who is to blame for our current political divisions and if we can fix them. It is safe to say that there has been a lot of bitterness, hatred and sarcasm spewed since the November election about the state of the American government. We’ve seen Protests, demonstrations, peaceful marches, congressional office sit-ins and angry citizens in town hall meetings shouting that they want answers.

#003 - How to Help Govern Now That the Election is Over
Thursday Feb 16, 2017
Thursday Feb 16, 2017
There has been plenty of talk about what to do now - the election is over and we are getting down to the business of governing. I recently got a call from a longtime friend who shared this thought, “I feel the need to speak out about how I want our government to operate. I need to get involved. I’m just not sure how.” Many people are feeling the exact same way that this person is and they too don’t know how to participate in shaping the government they want.

Episode 2 - Elections Have Consequences
Monday Feb 06, 2017
Monday Feb 06, 2017
This is THE podcast dedicated to the art of becoming a more influential advocate.
In 2009 President Obama stated the obvious, “Elections have consequences”. And the same could and should be said today. Elections do have consequences. Many that supported Obama then - liked his comment then. Today those same people are feeling the consequences of the past election.
This election gives rise to two American movements. One being the Trump supporters who are mainly white workers that find discontentment in watching the loss of manufacturing jobs in the rural rust belt. The second primarily made of women, young people and liberals who supported Bernie Sanders. These statements are generalities but you get the point. Both movements have at least three items in common. 1) The belief that the usual politics of the past has failed them. 2) Neither movement was built on the backs of the political parties. 3) They believe America is going in the wrong direction – they just don’t agree on the right direction.
This is movement - but what kind of movement? A short term burst of emotion or the beginning of a political populist movement that engages the people of this country.
