40. United Liberals of America
New party, new leadership, new ideas.

To me, both Republicans and Democrats are out of date and out of touch with reality. What is needed is a new paradigm. Merge some ideas from libertarianism (very few since I still want laws and such) and liberalism (minus communism) with a touch of small town USA (conservatives got that one) plus environmental concerns from the Greens and a new view can be formed. One that focuses on not only the working class but also the whole of America. Fundies and some liberal Christians feel left out. Bring them in and let them share their ideas. There are problems that need solving and bitching about judges from one side and bitching about gay marriage from the other isn't going to solve them: our environment is dying and we will go with it.

Everyone put aside their differences, hold onto their pet causes, and unite to get our nation back from fundies, neocons, and corrupt CEOs. Whether Christian, Deist, atheist, Wiccan, Jew, Muslim, Buddhist or whatnot, we need to understand that we all have the same goal and beliefs: a better world can be made so people can live in peace (Christianity), justice can be served to criminals (Islam), suffering can be relieved (Buddhist), nature can be recovered (Wiccan/pagan), and create a future our grandchildren can be proud of (all).
