Feeling Politically Homeless?
Maybe you're tired of being told you have only two choices.
Maybe neither political party really represents you.
Maybe you're working harder but finding that the life generations of Americans considered comfortably middle class—a home, financial security, the ability to save and enough left over to actually enjoy life—keeps moving further out of reach.
And maybe you're tired of waiting for someone in Washington to fix it.
You're not alone.
Meet Brian
Brian Groesser is a North Carolina attorney, author and host of The Middle American podcast.
A Michigan native who has called North Carolina home since 2003, Brian has spent more than two decades observing American politics from an unusual vantage point—including personal encounters with presidents, presidential candidates and political figures from across the political spectrum.
But Our Middle American Life isn't ultimately their story.
It's ours.
Our Middle American Life
What if the political middle stopped waiting to be represented?
In Our Middle American Life, Brian Groesser combines personal encounters with presidents and presidential candidates, the economic experiences of ordinary Americans, and an examination of the incentives driving our political system to ask a different question:
What if the change we're waiting for isn't another politician?
Part memoir. Part political analysis. Ultimately, a call to citizenship.
Book Reviews
I thoroughly enjoyed every chapter. The personal details will really allow many Americans to relate.
Ginger (Holly Springs, NC)
I thoroughly enjoyed it. Current politics say if you don’t identify solely with the Left or solely with the Right, then your opinions aren’t valid. It was great to see that I’m not alone in this middle of the road thinking.
Heidi (Greensboro, NC)
I liked it all and how real and relatable it is. overnment exists for us, so let's make them work for us again and not just put on some pandering show.

The Middle American Podcast
The conversation started before the book.
The Middle American is a podcast about politics, economics, community and American life from a perspective increasingly difficult to find in our political conversation:
the middle.
Not necessarily moderate.
Not disengaged.
And definitely not indifferent.
It's a place for disagreement, curiosity and conversations with people actually doing something in their communities.
