I went through two pretty dark years being fed up with the system and frustrated with my own party after two disastrous elections in 2006 and 2008.

Social Security mess is another failed progressive policy.

It doesn't make sense to have to do the wrong thing in order to do the right thing.

I have no plans to run for president.

California is going to take themselves off the cliff culturally and economically, fiscally. They are going to be at the trough in Washington wanting a bailout.

I would support a devolution of power out of Washington for education, health care, transportation.

Freedom solutions - cross-state insurers; health cooperatives.
