Promoting a nation for the people and by the people.
About the Manifesto
The Populist Manifesto is an ongoing project to educate the American People about their proper role in government. We are a nation that derives governmental authority from the people. Currently, powerful organizations and people displace the will and voice of the people for their own benefit and to the detriment of the American People. This must change and that is what I seek to do here. Together, we can bring the voice of the people to the halls of government.
