As a Radical Democrat (the philosophy not the party, although I am registered and vote dem) I am offended
Searching for radical democrat brings up Republican propaganda. Would you be able to explain what you mean by being philosophically "radical Democrat?"

To me it boils down to the great quote, of John Dewey, "The solution to the ills of democracy is more democracy."
I want the institution of mass multi-seat electoral offices and the mass expansion of elected offices and the election of those offices via Multi-Seat STAR voting (rate your enthusiasm for all the candidates, the two highest average candidates go to a runoff that seats whoever is rated higher on more ballots, repeat with the two highest rated remaining candidates until all seats are filled)
