Joe Manchin: “I am all for innovation, not elimination, and an all-of-the-above energy policy.”

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

They don't believe in these extreme causes and going to the extreme mats and fighting each other and hating the other side.

The way the parties have weaponized the political process today, they make it impossible to have a 'D' or an 'R' next to your name and speak to the other side.

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