The latest Op-Ed from Jacqueline Salit, New York, NY, the President of the Committee for a Unified Independent Party, Inc. (CUIP) and IndependentVoting.org. A longtime journalist, political strategist and “on the ground” organizer, she is the executive editor of The Neo-Independent magazine. In the Op-Ed, Salit lays out a four-point crash course for the Obama team on what they need to know about the independent movement."Anger is a consuming emotion, as anyone who has been betrayed, insulted or manipulated can tell you. But what’s dangerous, psychologically speaking, is if you’re angry but you have no productive way to express it. And when the object of your anger – the political establishment that is densely woven around the two parties – is also the only available solution to your anger, the problem is compounded. That is the psychological and political bind that most Americans find themselves in. And, it is also the catalyst for so many millions of Americans – 40% in some polls – becoming political independents. They are looking for a way out of the maze that only leads back to itself."
