For several years, I've considered some form of political campaign. After a great deal of soul-searching, I decided that I just didn't like the things I saw myself doing if I became a successful politician. I also came to realize that the scope of political leadership is fairly narrow, confined to the government. Not only are the concerns I have and the issues I wish to raise broader than this, but I question the utility of government as a solution to our problems.
So I've decided to conduct a spiritual campaign instead. I've received permission from the National Park Service to hold a series of Sunday afternoon speeches on the National Mall this fall. If you live in the Washington, D.C. area, I hope to see you there; otherwise, please follow my progress on this web page. I plan to have on-line videos of the speeches. You can also read more of my ideas on Freesoft's Papers and Essays page, or email me at baccala@freesoft.org
