check to the distortions, exaggerations and
deceptions that keep us from achieving a
truly democratic society.

affect us as American
citizens, and to draw informed conclusions as to how
our rights, standard of living
and security have diminished in recent decades. We'll also present
information on the people who are helping to shape a progressive agenda
with innovative ideas and initiatives. Please feel free to make
