The New Era Democrats (NED) is an independent political organization believing, quite simply, that those most fit to the task of governing -- political party affiliation not withstanding -- should be those elected to do so. We are committed to the idea that the voters vote for a candidate and not for a party. We have endorsed, and continue to endorse, office-seekers of all political stripes. Though it may seem like a misnomer, we are called "Democrats" not because of who we are or who we support, because that we believe that in a democratic republic such as ours no virtue of birth or wealth of social standing is necessary for political aspirants except that virtue mattering most - that of individual worth.
