The populist People's Party 2011

It finally happened; surely it was only a matter of time, odds would have it I'm actually late getting to the party.  Speaking of partyies, at the risk of sounding corny, I have found a legitimate answer to the Tea Party !   


Who'd a thought I'd find it, resisting, but inevitably grabbed around the throat by an evil Governor  and thrown into the national limelight; Madison, Wisconsin.  Home of the football fans that show up at stadiums wearing hats shaped like wedges of cheese; a place who's name conjures up images of Mayberry R.F.D., sleepy, idyllic ....the bridges of Madison County.....oops, where was I?  The Movement!


To my fellow liberals, progressives and anyone else interested in changing this country:  Robert Reich has written an article about the beginnings of a populist movement.  He shares with us a copy of an alleged "first draft" letter which outlines ten basic principles; or, as referred to in the article - the "people's bill of rights"; some need more tweaking than others, but still a great start!
