One of my regular correspondents, (in the name of full transparency, my brother, Joe), suggested that the blogs I have posted argue for the formation of a new political party. His early contribution to the movement is the suggestion that we adopt the beaver as our mascot. I pointed out that the beaver is a traditional icon of the City of New York as well as City University, (some will recall the beavers immortalized in mosaics at various subway stations), but, hey, all the more reason to go with it. Now all we need is a name for the party, a platform and members. If you have visited this site before, you know that an early draft of the platform must include a call for the U.S. to adopt the parliamentary system, thereby ending the imperial presidency and opening opportunities for smaller political parties to form that truly reflect the political diversity of our nation. More details later. Suggestions are of course always welcome.
