As the Trump-Biden rematch shifts into high gear, many Americans like me are left wondering whether this is really the best we can do in a country of 330 million people. The group No Labels sought to prove that it wasn’t, that we could find two extraordinary leaders–one Republican and one Democrat—to run for president on a unity ticket and offer a better path forward for America.

Nine years ago, one of Silverthorne’s few income-restricted housing properties was sold to a private firm. The sale — at a price that was double the property’s assessed value — raised worries in the high-cost mountain community that the new owner of the Blue River Apartments might lift rent caps that had kept its 78 units affordable when the requirements lapsed.
That expiration had been set for this year, and local officials were sufficiently concerned that they struck a deal with the new Greenwood Village-based owners to extend the affordability protections through at least the end of 2025, in exchange for $650,000.
But if the town had known about the sale ahead of time back in 2015, said Ryan Hyland, Silverthorne’s town manager, then officials could have tried to cobble together the money to buy the apartment complex — or arrange its sale to someone else.
