The Middle American
Far left. Far right. Conservative. Liberal. Republican. Democrat. Can't fully relate? Me either. But nearly all public discourse and media is centered upon the views share by one of the two political parties - and often those shouting the loudest from the extremes of both sides. This isn't just a political podcast. It's a podcast on life and society, with politics mixed in. But from a viewpoint we do not hear enough from - the middle.

Harris Picks Walz as VP
Harris has picked Governor Walz from Minnesota to join her on the Democrat ticket. Being hailed as a "folksy" pick appealing to Middle America, I believe the selection was a mistake and cemented the ticket as progressive and far left. After Republicans seemingly did the same by opting for JD Vance, the Democrats left the door open by opting for someone who just said last week, "Don't ever shy away from our progressive values. One person's socialism is another person's neighborliness." Once again, Independents find themselves stuck in the middle.
