Purple Political Breakdown

Welcome to Purple Political Breakdown, where we cut through the noise of partisan politics to find real solutions that work for real people. In a world drowning in red vs. blue rhetoric, we're building bridges in the purple space between—where evidence matters more than ideology, and practical solutions trump political talking points.

Rethinking Democracy: Why Reframing the Game Is the First Step to Reclaiming Power

In our most groundbreaking conversation yet, we explored a revolutionary approach to democracy with Travis Misurell, founder of the Future is Now Coalition (FiNC) and the lead architect behind a citizen-owned political system designed to bypass establishment control and return power to the people.

Rather than fighting within a rigged system, Travis is focused on replacing it, starting with how citizens see politics. His framework, Digital Politics (DP), helps people cut through the noise and see how power really works, helping them identify which politicians truly represent them, and which serve special interests. And that's where the tools under Digital Democracy (DD) come in, giving people the means to act on that clarity.

The Future is Now Coalition (FiNC) is building a citizen-owned alternative political system to bypass establishment control and reshape democracy from the ground up. Learn more at  futureis.org/join. At its core is Digital Politics (DP)—a new lens that helps people see how power actually works and vote with clarity. But FiNC doesn't stop at awareness. It's building Digital Democracy (DD), a civic participation system where every citizen is heard, every candidate is seen, and independent media can rise without being buried by algorithms or gatekeepers.

Travis's work through FiNC offers more than critique—it's a working blueprint. One that unites citizens, grassroots candidates, movements, and independent media into a shared, citizen-led ecosystem. His mission is to help America stop settling for the lesser of two evils and start building a future designed by the people themselves.

FiNC exists to provide the shared infrastructure, coordination, and visibility that today's political system has failed to deliver—so citizens, candidates, movements, and media can build what comes next, together.

A Framework Poised to Transform Democracy from the Bottom Up

Travis's mission aligns with the sentiment shared by 85% of Americans who sense our system is failing them but don't quite grasp the how or why. By uniting frustrated citizens, grassroots reformers, and independent media under a shared truth, he's crafting a new way to perceive political needs—a perspective-shift that's both enlightening and actionable, offering a new lens through which to view political complexities.

In this conversation, we explored why traditional left vs. right politics is a distraction, how the real struggle is people vs. power, and why fixing democracy starts with changing how we think about it—not just who we vote for. We also dove into how citizens can build a new system of representation beyond establishment gatekeepers.

We agreed that his platform could serve as a connective organization to bring all the different political solutions, third parties and different perspectives that can change and help America look beyond the current establishment. It's about creating the infrastructure where diverse voices and innovative approaches can unite under a shared vision for democratic transformation.

This represents exactly what Purple Political Breakdown is about: finding ways to move beyond the failed two-party system and build something better—together.
