Joe Manchin: “If we are ever going to do it, we should do it now, since it is all very fresh in what we have been able to endure.”

My observation, and recommendation from observation, would be, John, trust me, set yourself free and become an independent.

The pledge is simply this: that you remain independent and not be part of the Democrat or Republican system.

We’re trying to build a true independent network.

When you like both people and both sides, you can sit down with both sides, you can agree to disagree, you can try to find compromise and make things happen.
