I'm still a proud liberal. An old school liberal if you will. [View all]

I never abandoned my values, beliefs, or liberal label just because Republicans have spent decades trying to tarnish it.

I still believe in the same things I always have. Individual freedom. Individual liberty. Equal justice for all.

I posted an opinion piece earlier today that has been on my mind.

People are not looking for someone moving more in line with the right. They are looking for fighters who bring back our values, beliefs and what we are fighting for.
