On Saturday, the Democratic Party of Georgia adopted a values-based platform that reflects what Georgia Democrats told us they believe. Here's just the summary statement:
• Georgia Democrats believe every child in every classroom in every school in every county in Georgia should have access to a high quality public education.
• Georgia Democrats believe access to quality, affordable healthcare is a basic, human right.
• Georgia Democrats believe we have a moral obligation to leave our children and grandchildren with an earth as safe, beautiful, and majestic as the one bequeathed to us by our parents and grandparents.
• Georgia Democrats believe in and uphold every citizen’s right to equal and impartial justice under the law. We are firmly committed to upholding and protecting the U.S. Constitution and the Constitution of the State of Georgia. We believe that all Georgians are equal in the eyes of God and should all be equal in the eyes of the law.
• Georgia Democrats believe that the American Dream of opportunity for all should guide government policies at all levels.

I am glad to see this blog site. I live in an area where a small, but virulent and scary, element in our population has raised its ugly head to try to thwart our best efforts to guide the country into a positive direction. The depth of ignorance in GA, and in the South, in general, seems so profound at times. I look forward to intelligent, reasonable discussion here.
