Grady Ross Daugherty, a native of Texas, now lives in Southern California who is optimistic about rebuilding the Left. He believes it is simply a matter of starting with a correct, cooperative core hypothesis, a corrected maximum and minimum program, and a focused and superbly organized leadership party. As he states it, a tiny acorn may grow into a mighty oak, but only if it has a correct genetic code. Grady calls urgently on the true patriots of the American nation to come together for a new society and a cooperative civilization.
