Give the people a centrist party, says Whitman

December 9, 2013

Marina v.N. Whitman, professor at the Ford School and the Ross School of Business, likes to say that she didn't leave the Republican Party, it left her.

She and a vast number of her fellow Americans want a more centrist political party. So what about a Moderate Majority party?


Whitman talks about the party in the latest Ford School Policy Points video.


"The most important thing is for us to get our ship of state righted, because the truth is the longer our government is dysfunctional, the longer other countries are going to look somewhere else for guidance and leadership."
