Brenda H. - Cornelius, NC

When I call myself a Progressive, I do so because I refuse to follow the crowd - I have the ability to utilize my mind, and think for myself. When I call myself a Progressive, I have a foremost obligation to make my country and my environment a better place for the next generation.When I call myself a Progressive, I am concerned about the state of affairs in my local and national government - and the world at large.When I call myself a Progressive, I identify with the forefathers of our country, who had the courage to stand up for human rights, dignity, and equality. When I call myself a Progressive, I do so with immense pride and honor - and I believe that a Third Party Platform supported and called Progressives is an imminent and necessary solution to our current problems.
