Who shares your centrist values? Here's a list of prominent Americans who identify themselves as centrists, along with a list of major centrist organizations.

 
Well-known individuals who call themselves centrists (or who are commonly described as centrists) include U.S. Senator John McCain, former independent Maine Governor Angus King (>), radio talk show hosts Alan Nathan and Dennis Prager, Ted Halstead and Michael Lind (authors, The Radical Center), former Attorney General Elliot Richardson, Mark Satin (editor, Radical Middle Newsletter), U.S. Supreme Court Justice Stephen Breyer, and U.S. Senator Lincoln D. Chafee.

Some well-known centrist organizations: The Centrist Coalition (www.centristcoalition.com), Independent Nation (www.independentnation.org), the New America Foundation (www.newamerica.net), The Radical Middle Newsletter (www.radicalmiddle.com), Centrist.Org (www.centrist.org), the American Centrist Coalition (www.centrism.com), and the Centrist Policy Network (www.centristpolicynetwork.org)

Perhaps the most prominent book on the subject is John P. Avlon's Independent Nation, with the subtitle "How Centrists Can Change American Politics."
