THE FUTURE I AM WORKING TOWARD
A 105-Year Vision
Build something the next generation can understand, challenge, and carry forward.
2025 → APPROXIMATELY 2130
The work should outlast my desk.
My current ambition is a 105-year horizon for the businesses associated with VPP and the wider Veritas vision. Measured from VPP's November 2025 founding, that reaches approximately 2130.
I want responsibility to survive the founder. A future team needs clear authority, reliable records, the power to correct mistakes, and a reason to keep the work useful. A long calendar alone cannot provide that.
BEGIN
Build what can be shown.
Useful work, clear terms, a real human decision, and evidence people can inspect.
PREPARE
Make responsibility transferable.
Document roles, access, decisions, and succession. Give future leaders authority beyond following the founder.
CONTINUE
Leave room to change.
Preserve what matters while allowing stronger evidence and future circumstances to change the work.
This is my stated strategic aspiration. Older VPP documents use a 70-year horizon. Actual governing and succession instruments require their own review and adoption; this personal page does not amend them.
A PERSONAL CIVIC AMBITION
Authority, with humility.
My long-term goals include preparing for a credible run for the U.S. presidency. I have discussed 2032 and 2036; the election year and campaign structure remain open.
I want a society in which people can progress through education, work, contribution, and opportunity, without inherited wealth or institutional connections determining how far they can go. The policy work behind that ambition still needs its own evidence, public scrutiny, and decisions.
If elected, I intend to step back.
My stated intention is to take a break from day-to-day business operations during a presidential term if elected. A real transition would require lawful ethics and conflict arrangements, properly authorized leadership, and independent governance. It has not been implemented.
This website records personal history and intentions. It does not collect campaign donations. VPP commercial work and Assembly activities retain their own purposes, resources, and obligations.
FEC: exploring possible candidacy ↗ONE ORIGIN · DISTINCT RESPONSIBILITIES
Keep the connection honest.
My history helps explain why I am building Veritas. It does not give me ownership of another person's conscience, turn the Assembly into a campaign, or make a commercial relationship a statement of belief.
