The Centrist Manifesto

The Centrist Manifesto

A visionâ€”and detailed road map to powerâ€”for a new party that will champion Americaâ€™s rational center.

From debt ceiling standoffs to single-digit Congress approval ratings, Americaâ€™s political system has never been more polarizedâ€”or paralyzedâ€”than it is today. As best-selling author and public policy expert Charles Wheelan writes, now is the time for a pragmatic Centrist party that will identify and embrace the best Democratic and Republican ideals, moving us forward on the most urgent issues for our nation.

Wheelanâ€”who not only lectures on public policy but practices it as well (he ran unsuccessfully for Congress in 2009)â€”brings even more than his usual wit and clarity of vision to The Centrist Manifesto. He outlines a realistic ground game that could net at least five Centrist senators from New England, the Midwest, and elsewhere. With the power to deny a red or blue Senate majority, committed Centrists could take the first step toward giving voice and power to Americaâ€™s largest, and most rational, voting bloc: the center.
