Tom B. - Lake Oswego, OR

A progressive is a person who lives with the ideals and optimism of America's founders. We are not satisfied with progress for the few, connected or privileged, but for the common good. Our actions and policy inspire America's citizens and set the standard for other nations. We want a better world for the next generation. We turn our energy to end discrimination, hatred and war and we face the problems of hunger, despair, environmental damage and poverty with intelligence and courage.
