Everyday America

Everyday America

Politicians and special interest groups have worked for years to divide us – into subgroups based on characteristics of political party, race, gender or economic status. These powerful divisions have kept us from being unified as a country and as a community. We have been conditioned to blame other groups for the problems we experience, then look to the government to help level the playing field. We must stop looking at each other as subgroups and instead look at us as one group – Americans.

We are not only Americans, but members of our local communities. In the past, individuals have always looked to their family and the local community for help in times of need. All of us have unfortunately gotten away from that practice in modern times. It is time we get back to looking for help where it is most effective: right next door.
Mission statement

Everyday America believes an educated voter is the key to a good government and great nation. Everyday America will teach the voting public through all available means about how the Constitution and Declaration of Independence relate to today’s everyday problems. The public must realize that the Constitution is the rulebook for government. The voters must make politicians accountable to our rulebook. Otherwise, we have a government that begins to serve the special interest and politicians instead of the people. That is what you see happening today. Please help Everyday America spread the word about an accountable government that fixes, not hinders our everyday life.
