America should aspire to remain a marketplace of ideas—not an auction house for political influence. We urgently need to reform our extended election process and the money involved. JE 09/2026

All Western countries have free-market economies, despite the many adjectives thrown around. Socialism is one of those misnomers that people interpret differently depending on the TV channel you watch, your heritage, and your experience. We don't want unchecked capitalism or communism. We want Progressive Capitalism, where an uncorrupt government reins in bad economic behavior while providing safety and dignity for the less fortunate. In the end, we want an economically vibrant society that’s fair and humane. Is that too much to ask? JE 05/2026

Voting is about YOUR life. Don’t take one for the Team. An election is not a game in which you always support your team, no matter how badly they play this season. Your next elected official is not like the Quarterback or Pitcher you admire, even when they don't do well. Our Democracy is different. It requires that you think. Vote Haters, Liars, and Deniers out of Office. JE 06/24

Lies and deception come from small people. JE 05/24

Words do matter, and more so during our politically charged election season. A dogmatic leader will distort words and facts describing socio-economic characteristics and policies, bending definitions to their political agenda. JE 06/23
