Hello everyone!

I'm a political scientist from California. Just thought I’d mention that with my very ambiguous name. I describe myself as moderate as I take a little from the left and a little from the right, but I’m never wishy-washy or undecided on my views.

I’m also a Californian patriot as I feel our culture and priorities here are quite different from the rest of America. I'm constantly debating the usefulness of the Union and how large states such as California benefit from membership in it. I have yet to unearth a valid reason and if you can come up with one, please let me know.

Cheers!
