"The concept of civic engagement--political groups existing not simply to organize and motivate, but to put ideals into practice and actually affect the lives of ordinary citizens--is the essence of Blue Tiger Democrats, the crucial element of past practice that we have lost along the way and must bring back to rebuild our respect and relevance to the voters. The magazine you hold in your hands, with its illustrations and design recalling the classic Harper's Weekly, is really about the future, how we can take the best of the old ideas and adapt them to our new digital media era"--P. 5 and 6. |
