FREE WHITEWATER offers a confident message to all the residents of Whitewater, Wisconsin:
You have lived in Whitewater, Wisconsin for years, perhaps your entire life. Despite your affection for this beautiful city, life in our small municipality leaves you uneasy. You find yourself increasingly convinced that something is distorted, and wrong, in the politics and culture of our city. Rest assured: You are not aloneā¦
Embracing one of the oldest traditions of free speech in America, FREE WHITEWATER is published anonymously under the pseudonym, JOHN ADAMS. Many of the greatest men of this republic published anonymously, among them Hamilton, Madison, Jay, Paine, and occasionally, John Adams himself. The second president of the American Republic was a great, but flawed man. His greatness and his flaws inspire the choice of his name: a lofty example leavened with the humbling awareness of imperfection in him, and more so, in us.
JOHN ADAMS represents no party, faction, or clique within our city. ADAMS represents, instead, a fair politics, and a free, open culture.
