Thank you for the week of extraordinary work Steve. Your brilliant, pull no punches posts help me stay relatively sane, centered and ready for the next step.
Seems to me the next step is enlisting a leader. A great leader will have some humility, like Washington, a great leader may need a little coaxing.
I look to Connecticut, (the land of my forefather Roger Sherman), to Senator Whitehouse. Super smart, experienced, has gravitas and talk about big you know what’s .. his watchdog work re the Supreme Court has been fantastic. Senator Whitehouse, a paragon of decency and humility from a place of power, is beginning to show some real fire.
Shall the Opposition enlist this great American patriot? Say the word and I will help organize. I’ve worked on twelve campaigns since 1970, was an Obama delegate in ‘08. I know what I’m doing.
Take us beyond the warning bells Steve. Take us to the next level. We must start gathering around a leader who embodies our democratic principles, and we must do it NOW.
Thank you.
Great work this week Steve!! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 Thanks for all your great posts and videos. I missed your Live chat with Charlie Sykes but will listen to it this weekend. Someone who I think would also make a great Leader is Paul Reickoff. (Sp?) I saw him on MSNBC last night and he really has got it going on and is very knowledgeable about the issues too. People are craving someone to show them the way. You, or Adam K. or Paul would be great!! Someone needs to step up soon and lead the way. Anyway, hope you have a nice weekend. Thanks again for all you do. I appreciate you so much!! ❤️🇺🇸💙
