6. What is the "Story"... the narrative?

What is the endgame? The vision?
What is the problem?
What or who is the obstacle?

The platform needs to explain the problem,
the causes, the status quo, and the solution.

Why isn't the "democratic party" already "for the people"?
Why aren't all people "equal"?
Why isn't the govt. "working for the people"?

What myth, beliefs or world view maintains the status quo?
We need to identify and analyze the"why"
before you can say who or how to make any change.

Analysis is the most powerful tool for change.
