I am a baby boomer and believe ours was a generation that was distracted by the shiny objects brought by moderate wealth....big homes, vacations, fancy cars, helping our children get ahead. I remember, following politics, but being caught up just enough in my daily efforts to live the good life, I cherished the wins for the common good and believed we would survive the losses.
I knew Reagan was bad, I knew certain twists and turns moved us ahead as a generous society. But never took the time to understand the complex set of actions that were in play to undermine our society, our environment, and our children's future.
So how can we forge ahead with a think tank driven by the many patriotic politicians in the House and Senate who have brilliantly defended democracy?
I don't think of the DNC -because any political organization would have a politics-first context. And I don't think of it as any one thing Susan. I see more of an "ecosphere" approach. That is a loosely-coupled network of entities that serve a common purpose -toward democracy, justice, and equity, while rebuilding a foundation predicated upon education, information, and engagement.
It would require funding to be economically viable, an accessible and engaging vision as to what would be the tangible milestone results produced over a year, two years, and so on, organizational leadership in each specific area of societal imperative, and an overarching leadership to tie it all together. Then the tactical components around communication and messaging. Helping to educate people, and continuing to evolve and refine the vision.

Would the DNC be capable of such a feat?
Susan, this Boomer must have missed that particular boat! Big homes, vacations, fancy cars…have heard of them tho’!!!!
