Our Ultimate vision for WeDemocrats is an on-line democracy for the United States where citizens communicate directly with our civil servants and make many of our decisions which would be refined and implemented by our elected officials, many of them free of obligations to a polical party; the implementation of humane, professional and scientific methodologies to handle the problems that we have; a society where citizens know the truth, confront it and lead the world with hope drawn from reality..
John Quincy Adams’ quoted, “America does not go abroad in search of monsters to destroy. She is the well-wisher to freedom and independence of all. She is the champion and vindicator only of her own.”
To act as a voice for disenfranchised democratic voters.
To provide voter and citizen action education to people wanting to make a
difference in their communities.
To support progressive democratic candidates for local, state, and national
political office by providing publicity and volunteers to campaigns, and working
with candidates to promote a progressive agenda for the nation.

"In the councils
of government, we must guard against the acquisition of unwarranted influence,
whether sought or unsought, by the military industrial complex. The potential
for the disastrous rise of misplaced power exists and will persist"
- General Dwight D. Eisenhower, 1961
