The Logos Party Dustin Lawson

While furloughed for a month in January of 2019 during the longest government shutdown in United States history, Dustin asked himself, "How can liberals, conservatives, and independents better work together?" His conclusion: democracy remains healthy through healthy conversations, so political dialogue had to be improved. With the help of Doctor Democracy, who is the embodiment of all the great political thinkers of history, Dustin created the Logos Party, a satirical political party that provides a blueprint for how to take partisanship out of the conversation so that political discourse is not dogma versus dogma, but reason with reason. Conversations at the reason with reason level are dedicated to the Enlightenment principles of intellectual diversity and intellectual humility on which the United States was founded.
