Biden, Clintons, Obama... As "elder" statespeople, they can be the guides... Tim Waltz + Kamala Harris... They can bring the joy + enthusiasm...

Jamie Raskin + Adam Schiff... They can bring the law + the history... Bernie Sanders, Liz Cheney, Adam Kinsinger...

They can help w/ the big picture + insights from the other side of the fence.... There are many others...

But the force for the future must come from America's young people... Let's help nurture their big dreams + create an unshakeable moral center.

Jasmine Crockett, Maxwell Frost, Jon Ossoff, Raphael Warnock... There are more...

Is there a young Native American w/ leadership qualities that we may have overlooked???

A retired military person??? An educator ready to branch out??? A physician fed up w/ the direction medicine has taken???

Who will stand in the gap??? Is there a young Lincoln??? A young JFK??? Who can live, breathe, serve + save America???
