Barack's Backers

Some think that the country is so divided that America’s problems will never be solved, that Republicans and Democrats are so far apart on how to deal with the major issues that compromise is impossible and gridlock is inevitable. Barack’s Backers disagrees. We’re announcing a new campaign to bring the country together and we’re embarking on a mission to discover how to bridge the great divide. Turning Red States Blue is an attempt to find common ground, speak with those on the other side of the political fence and find ways we can work together. It will be an exciting journey, we hope you can participate.
