To join Neighbors and Neighborhoods together to fundamentally change our political process.
We as Middle Americans are committed to building a community where each person has the opportunity to connect with other Middle Americans and contribute to the success of our community, nation and neighbors. We believe in the values of honesty, integrity, hard work, personal freedoms and mutual respect, and we demand the same from our elected officials. Our mission is to support and uplift our neighbors, enabling us as a community to eclipse our past and create a brighter more prosperous future for All Americans. We are championing innovation,promoting fairness, and working tirelessly to build a strong, united, and progressive America for all.
To create an environment where Neighbors can openly dialogue and organize to change the direction of governmental politics to one that works for them instead of against them.
Our coalition will be made up from amongst the over 126 million Americans that currently believe that neither political party are actually representing them. You are NOT alone.
To revolutionize the current political climate of Top Down politics with one that focuses instead on Bottom up politics. Where each neighbor has a vested interest and say in how our representatives are elected.
Today's political parties and our choices for representation are best represented by a triangle. Money, Power, and Influence pour in the top. That Money, Power and Influence is then disseminated through the political structure of the party, by a chosen few individuals, from the federal to the state level. Very little of that arrives at the local level. Those viewed as most deserving, and receiving the most assistance from the party are the most adherent to its platform, policies and beliefs.
Minimal concern is given to the people being represented simply because as individuals the average American brings very little money, power and influence to the party. To them you and I are simply a swing vote.
We are not simply a swing vote, we are "The" vote. By flipping the current party paradigm we can remove the disproportionate influence that powerful groups and individuals have over the political process. We can make this Power and Influence flow from the bottom up.

Change is both stressful and necessary, especially now that Americas parties have abandoned the average American. Below are the first five Letters to our Neighbors. This blog will regularly lay out the direction that we as neighbors can follow to support each other and change American politics.
Perhaps the single most important thing you can do today is Join your neighbors in changing America for our future generations.
The Down the Middle blog will be very important in keeping all of our neighbors informed , updated, and motivated.
Our Front Porch podcast will be a livestream broadcast of interviews with government representatives, famous people, and our own neighbors. It will include an ability for members to ask questions.
We are committed to supporting our neighbors. So as we grow as an organization, we will be developing and providing resources to our neighborhoods and their neighbors on many aspects of meaningful change.
Get to know other members and build meaningful connections. Our community is a welcoming and supportive space for all who share our values and vision. Look forward to our interactive neighbors forum. Coming soon!
You are NOT alone. The single biggest benefit is the truth that you are not alone. By connecting neighbors and neighborhoods we can provide each other the support needed in this journey.
Dear Neighbor. If you have not read the Down the Middle blogs already please do so. After joining ,reading and subscribing to the blog, following us on social media, and telling your neighbors the most important thing is patience. We are working with a shoestring budget that can only be changed through your support. This website will change regularly as we grow and mature. Over the next few days and weeks we will be spelling out specifics about how together, we can change our political process. Please don't judge our possibilities together based on one interaction. Judge the content of our message. Give us a chance to earn your trust and that of your neighbors. We Can do great things together.
