I am a Pragmatic Progressive.

[johnaries]

Or, perhaps, a Progressive Pragmatist.

I don't fit into any of the "usual" pigeon-holes that are so evident here on DU.

I am also a Taoist, which means that I reject all pigeon-holes.

I am who I am.

I love my country. The fact that I want it to be the best that it can be only be attributed to the fact of my love.

Unfortunately, people are always going to be people.

Why should I be disappointed, if I know that people can only be people, and then they act like people?

But I believe that people can rise above themselves.

But I know it won't be easy. And I rejoice in every single baby-step that people make.
