45% of Americans now identify as independents — the largest political bloc in the country. Media trust is at a record low of 28%. Why the information system keeps managing them instead of informing them.
How do we convince Baby Boomers that meaningful reform doesn't have to come through the two-party system? That independent movements, or parties like the Forward Party, exist because millions of Americans have already recognized the limits of the current model? More importantly, how do we persuade Democrats that acknowledging the need for a reboot is a sign of strength, not surrender? Because if a party refuses to adapt, it creates the vacuum that allows someone like Donald Trump to reshape it around one person's brand, personality, and priorities rather than enduring principles.

At least you're doing your part, Ryan.
