The middle ground is devoid of fanaticism, radicalism and just about every other "ism". The middle ground is the recognition that people are individuals, are what comprises our notion of humanity and are capable of being good to one another. The middle ground is not the left or the right or even those who consider themselves centrist. The middle ground is where everything is possible and from that place comes rules, goals, associations that are reasonable, fair and just, favoring no one in particular but everyone in general.

Well said. Very well said.
