Americans agree on a lot more than we think. We just never see the numbers, and agreement nobody can see can't change anything. Our job is to put it out in the open, so citizens can stand on it together. Every name makes it harder to ignore. Add yours: common-ground.us/get-involve…

What % of Republicans do you think make over $250K a year? The average guess is 38%. It's about 2%. And what % of Democrats are in a union? The average guess is 39%. It's about 10%. So why do we picture country-club Republicans and union-hall Democrats? Most of both are neither.

That's the whole problem we're built to fix. Common-Ground.US makes the agreement visible — and gives you a way to act on it, together. Not a party. Not a movement. Just the receipts, and a way to stand up and be counted.
