Making our Voice Heard

In this first post, I want to talk a little about why The Voice of America.org site was started. All too often we hear the ramblings, representations and misrepresentations, the broad stroke characterizations and marginalizing of everyday Americans by politicians and media. We at The Voice of America.org have decided, enough is enough. It is time for the silent majority to be heard and heeded.

All too often I see people listening to the news, shaking their heads, rolling their eyes and hear them say things like, "Who did they poll? They never asked anyone in my neighborhood!" Where exactly does the media get their information when they say "polls show"? They always throw some statistics out there to try to explain where they got their information but it is rarely detailed enough to give you a clear picture of the respondents and whether they are an accurate cross-section of American sentiment.

So, our goal here at The Voice of America.org, is to tap into the mainstream of American psyche and to make it heard. For too long our politicians have made decisions based in woeful ignorance of what the vast majority of Americans truly value. We at The Voice of America.org, seek to be non-partisan and represent the Voices of Americans who need to be heard. Thank you for your patronage and check back often.
