It's double posted - so will comment here.

The Social Report is, indeed, a grand vision and interesting work - a clear and level headed attempt to answer the question of where we really are, and what we are doing. Others have trod down the same road but not with the larger sense of there needing to be a governing order.

Is from his report on the social health as applied to states.

Your other point, that it is not enough to do policy, one must persuade others of the meaning of that policy, is one that needs more careful attention. There are deep ideas, and those deep ideas show they are ready by finding eloquent expression. It may seem unfair that "we can't win because they have so much better a propaganda arm". But in a sense, it is deeply fair. The American people want to be governed by those whose ideals they can live - as Keynes might say, no policy can be any smarter than the people who run it - and until there is a distilled and eloquent means of conveying the essence of how an individual can live in the polity which a party would wish to build - they will not support it.

The deep ideas, and their eloquent expression, are both the challenges of this time and place for those of us who aspire to the term "liberal". It's a good life's work, and you are right to ask us to tip our hat to a man who set us on that road.
