VOTING IN AMERICA CAN BE IMPROVED
BY SOME SIMPLE CHANGES!!
(WRITTEN 2010)
(UNEDITED, UNABRIDGED)
The status of voting among many groups of
Americans, especially African Americans, needs to be raised
above an event that comes with intense advertising, and gala
events, to one of a Social, Moral, and Civic Duty as required
American Citizen activities.
(Aaron
Blake, Dems ponder drop in black voter turnout, THED
HILL, 10/14/09)
This requirement must be conveniently placed
in the services to which some other Citizen needs are tired.
Further, Voting must be made convenient and easy. The voting
window must extend over a month for a position. One day voting
must be a thing of the past!!
Voting in
America has been deliberately made difficult for certain
groups of citizens. For example the location of voting places
were established in geographical location where Blacks and
poor people would have a hard time getting to. Further, things
as the poll tax and denial of women and Blacks to vote
completely, have been common place. Therefore, it is time for
voting to be made extremely convenient but save and free of
fraud.
The activities
around voting inequality has developed in certain groups of
Americans, the expectation of great difficulty and a tendency
to avoid voting completely. This is what we see in the way
Blacks have to be almost driven to the polls. Blacks expect it
to be a hard task to vote. In fact at times Blacks were killed
in the act of voting which went unpunished by the Authorities.
Today it tales Radio Shows, OPRAH, marches, Church Ministers,
dances, Caribbean Cruses, Chicken and fish cook outs and much,
much more to get Black to the polls! Just observe how much
Brilliant Public Relations and money it took to get Obama
elected!! All of this effort was necessary to over come the
instilled behavior of Blacks to place voting at the bottom of
their things to do as a public civic responsibility.
Now contrast that with the resent voting by
Black in the places where neither special expense nor events
were made to move Blacks to this activity.
Mitch Landrieu Republican was elected the mayor
of New Orleans in February 2010 in a landslide victory.
This demonstrated that without the extreme efforts seen in the
Obama election Blacks are not moved to cast a vote for
anyone!! (Clifford
Bryan,
Mitch Landrieu elected mayor of New Orleans-
black voter turn out low,
New Orleans Conservative Examiner,
February 6, 10)
(The Gantt, Report, Pensacola Voice, February
2010)
But there are things that can be done to turn this voting road
block around!
For example, What if all people trying to get
Federal Funds to attend College had to demonstrate that they
were a registered voter and had voted in all regularly
schedules elections for which they were qualified
(i. e.
Presidential, Congressional, Governor, etc)!
Voter registration should be made as convenient as such other
activities as Automobile license and registration, graduation
from High School, Food stamps, and Welfare for adults, and
etc. Americans who have served time in prison should be
routinely and conveniently provided their Voter registration
cord after being given a short lesson in the value of voting
and how to vote (No test required)!! In addition, the use of “Absentee
Balloting”
and the “voting
by mail”
must be increased to fit it potential usefulness!!!
These requirements in the laws could
be done as attachments, amendments or riders on some pieces of
popular legislation.

AMERICAN RELIGION MUST RETAKE
IT’S IMPORTANT FUNCTION OF MORAL MILESTONES FOR OUR LEADERS!!
(WRITTEN 2010)
(UNEDITED, UNABRIDGED).
The institution
of Religion is not living up to its primary function of
carrying the banner of the value of the human species and a
living philosophy! It is using fear and emotion to enhance its
fortune by making profits that rival that of private industry.
It is sad to see that religion is using it
position to provide mystery to the lives of humanity. This is
so obviously true went we see that the natural universe is so
vast in poorly understood that is provides all the mystery
humans need. If it is God's universe then he has provided a
natural universe with enough mystery and unknowns that many
generations to come will not be able to find our the answers
to all he has provided. Out records show that humans have
uncovered only about four percent of the matter and energy
that exists in the universe. The erect of the matter and
energy is relegated to what is labeled "Dark Matter" and
"Un-known Energy!!' (Greta Christina, Why We Don't Need
Religion to Give Life Mystery, AlterNet.org, February 12,
2010, February 12, 2010, http://www.alternet.org/story/145644/)
Don't get me wrong; we need some mystery to keep
humans thoughtful and productive! Mystery -- unanswered and
unanswerable questions -- are a central part of what makes us
human. Without it, our life would be bleak and empty, with a
yearning that can never be satisfied... because there's
nothing left out there to satisfy it. But Religion should
serve to protect humans against those excessive that tend to
be self-destructive. Morality and the transcending value of
humans above all other carbon based unites is the domain of
our Gods of good will.
Therefore, both Religion and Scientific thinking
has its mutually exclusive valuable institutions in our
civilized society. We need to ask ourselves, "What would
humans do if there were no guidance of any institution that
taught the behaviors that made it immoral to kill, or steal,
or do those other forbidden things laid down in the Christian
Ten Commandments?" Both Religion and Science holds
important positions in our civilized society. However,
Religion has taken the tact that the mystery is so important
that their presentations are far too many times walking into
superstitious thin ice and the ridiculous territory of magic
and ridiculous. It is not necessary for a human to believe
that humans can ride on clouds and walk on water to believe
that to live contrary to the ten commandments will result in
the ultimate destruction of it's own kind and the habitat in
which it must live!!!
It seemed that Obama was planning to provide a
leadership, which carried the tenants of Christianity that
held humans as most important, and that his actions would be
against what was fazed as the evils of immoral people and
institutions. Without This Obama would have no compass to
reach a better American society and correct all the amoral and
evil conditions which brought us to near destruction. In fact
no matter what type of government a nation has (i. e.
Democracy, Communist, Dictatorship, Socialism, Theocracy, etc,
) a bad, intellectually Challenged, evil leader would bring it
to its knees!! However, some forms of government are more
resistant to the destruction by a bad leader than others. Our
American democratic Republic has proven to one of them!! The
G. W. Bushes, Nixons, Ragan, and Herbert Hoovers have
demonstrated that. This is the value of having a “Religion”
that provides the philosophy that placed human a value above
all other institutions and forces.
   
???????????????
But it seems
that Obama has made the mistake in thinking that he could keep
the evil things and people that has made mayhem and reaped
havoc. Obama new deal has become in question. Steve Fraser
wrote. “
On March 4, 1933, the day he took office, Franklin Roosevelt
excoriated the "money changers" who "have fled from their high
seats in the temples of our civilization [because...] they
know only the rules of a generation of self-seekers. They
have no vision and where there is no vision, the people
perish."
This suggests that no one can do well by making evil his or
her companion! Because Obama under the banner of
Bipartisanship lay down with the evil ones, the great
expectations of 2009s’ campaign are beginning to smell like a
pile of dead fish. The new rhetoric -- including
populist-style attacks on villainous bankers that sound fake
(or cynically pandering) when uttered by Obama's brainiacs --
layered on top of the pile like deodorant.
History has
proven that if you do not remove a cancer it will continue to
grow larger and in the end destroy the whole body. The story
goes that God said in Sodium and Gomorra, “If you can find one
person that is free of sin and worth saving he would spare the
whole city>’ Finding none the evil was destroyed. This is
Obama’s prime directive. He has to be a super FDR and destroy
the American Financial System that has brought it to this
hellish precipice!!

“WHO
DAT,” DOES BAD ENGLISH BECOME GOOD ENGLISH WHEN IT MAKES
MONEY???
(WRITTEN 2010)
(UNEDITED,
UNABRIDGED)
Who wouldder thought,
the phase “Who Dat” a phase attributed to African
American Entertainers of the old movie pictures becoming a
national and international two words used by more people than
any public viewing audience.
Yes, the comedy went like this, Tow ignorant bad talking
African Americans bottom lips hanging down, eyes bucked
talking in a state of fear while in a supposedly haunted
house, “Who dat-who dat say who dat when I say who dat”
and so own it goes.
Now here is the most
widely ever viewed TV NHL game in history having millions of
people (MSNBC 106.5 million) chanting in great
enthusiasm and cordiality, “Who Dat” all over the
world!! OH! What a powerful vehicle this modern day Public
Relation Advertising Machine is. It was too much to see how
this powerful advertisement machine could get a African
American elected to the office of President of the United
States, proving how it could overcome four hundred years of
Blacks fighting unsuccessfully to be Equal and free. It did it
in one year (and God give me back my America!!!). Then to have
the NFL stage and sell the public the comfort in using this
phase of the worst English ever is nothing more than a step at
being as power as God himself!! The full phase used for the
game was, “Who dat say dey gonna beat dem Saints?”
(Paul Newberry, Who dat? Archie's boy waiting for Super
Saints, The Associated Press, 2010)
The phase was so
profitable that it is now being litigated is to who owns this
example of bad English Who Owns "Who Dat?" A Reporter
alleged that, “If you were born and raised in
Louisiana... we all thought it was our birthright, so to
speak! You know... the ol' "Who Dat" slogan. But not so
according to the NFL! The NFL has issued a "cease and desist"
order to all businesses carrying gear with the famous Saints
phrase. But does "Who Dat" even have an owner? The Secretary
of State's office says that will probably be detemined once
the Superbowl is all said and done--by the courts. What do
you think? Should the NFL have exclusive rights to the phrase
"Who Dat?" Or is it ours to use as we please in Louisiana?”
“Step-and-fetch-it”
and
Eddie 'Rochester' Anderson
of the Jack Benny Show better watch out or they will be ripped
off of an insulting character that had made Blacks fit a
negative stereotype for generations.
Yes, we all are just
Americans when we are making some money.

SELLING HAITIAN CHILDREN BY THE CHILD AND BY THE HUMAN
ORGAN!!!
(WRITTEN 2010)
(UNEDITED, UNABRIDGED)
Just when you think that
“Capitalism American Style” has reached it ultimate low
another low is seat. In Haiti the children are being
trafficked not only for the money to be made off the adoption
business, it reported that business people are also taking
them for their human organs!! (
Alex Ogle, Haiti holds Americans accused of child trafficking,
ABC News
, Jan 31,
2010)
It was
calculated that if you sold a Haitian child organ by organ you
could make money off 2 kidneys
$20,000.00
a piece, a liver
$250,000.00,
a heart
$560,000.00,
a spleen, eyes, skin and so on it goes. Then how much does a
filet of Haitian cost at the table? Therefore, if harvested
right one little Haitian child could make you a million
dollars. It is only business. This is as gruesome as any
inhuman business can get!
The
Haitian
Prime
Minister Jean-Max Belle
said in an
exclusive interview with CNN's Christiane Amanpour,
“Trafficking
of children and human organs is occurring in the aftermath of
the earthquake that devastated parts of Haiti, killed more
than 150,000 people, and left many children orphans, Haitian
Prime Minister Jean-Max Bellerive said Wednesday. \"There is
organ trafficking for children and other persons also, because
they need all types of organs,"
How low will a humans go
for the all mighty buck??

CAPITALISM IS MAKING THE ADAPTING OF HAITIAN CHILDREN A MONEY
MAKING TRAGEDY!!
(WRITTEN 2010)
(UNEDITED, UNABRIDGED)
Haiti has brought
Americans a situation that deserves the emotion and human
attention that is clearly being provided. However, in all this
clearly good assistance, the ugly head of profit and greed has
been raised! The profit and greed of using children to make
money has become an American amoral activity and a Haitian
tragedy! (By Cheryl Cornacchia,
Quebec holding new Haitian adoption requests over child
smuggling fearm Canwest News Service,
January 19, 2010)
The reported cost to adapt a Haitian Child ranges from
$3,000.00 to $50,000.00 per child. Private and nonprofit
agencies alike are using this resource of a tragedy to add
funds to their coffers. (FosterMommy,
How Much Does a
Domestic Adoption Cost?,
08/24/2008)
Haiti has experienced
the natural disaster of an earthquake that has left many, many
children dead or orphaned. American citizens are responding to
this emotional need for foster and adapting parents by
bringing children to the main land for adoption. But in all
this tremendous good activity e business of “money making
through this process” is making some evil consequences.
(Aid organization urges temporary moratorium on newly
instigated adoptions Protecting, tracing and reuniting
children with relatives must be first focus >> MISSISSAUGA, ON
(CNW))
It is reported that some
agencies and individuals are going to Haiti and taking
children off the streets and literally selling them to waiting
Parents in the US! UNICEF said. “Children
are going missing from hospitals in Haiti, raising fears that
the youngsters are being trafficked for adoption abroad
in the wake of the January 12 earthquake . . . .”
Some of
these children have been separated from tie parents who are
alive and look for them in all the rubble and chaos. Haitian
children have become like the number of animals you would find
in any local animal shelter in the US.
Even as this process is
preceding a complete system of follow-up of these children has
not been established. How many of these children are being
sold to pedophiles, child abusers, perverts and at times used
as servants! These children are not pets with big adorable
bright eyes and destine to become an animal adoption campaign
to some needy person who wants a pet that is a step above a
poodle dog or bed warmer.

AMERICANS LOOSE FIGHT TO CUT OUT CAMPAIGN BUYING BY BIG MONEY,
PART TWO!!!
(WRITTEN 2010)
(UNEDITED,
UNABRIDGED)
The Supreme
Court in a five to four vote changed the campaign financing
laws (Citizens United
v. Federal Election Commission)
to allow corporations, agencies, and other to invest unlimited
funds in the election of national candidates. (Greg
Palast, The Supreme Court Just Handed Anyone, Including bin
Laden or the Chinese Govt., Control of Our Democracy,
AlterNet, January 22, 2010, http://www.alternet.org/story/145354/)
To make this alarming to
both the far right and the ultra liberals this means that
China can buy American elections and even sell special
services to others!! (Greg Palast,
Manchurian Candidates: Supreme Court allows China and others
unlimited spending in US elections,AlterNet
, January 21, 2010)
This was a
victory for The Health Care Industry, Exxon-Mobil, China, Iran
and all other nonvoter entities.
(Stephanie
Mencimer,
The
Man Who Took Down Campaign Finance Reform, Mother Jones,
Jan. 21, 2010)
The common
voter has lost their ability to have a special advocator for
their interest. In fact the court says that corporations must
n be treated as “individual natural humans, i.e . humans!”
(Scott Klinger,
The Bush-Packed Supreme Court Thinks Corporations Are People
Too, AlterNet, January 22, 2010)
This ruling may as well have made these
corporations citizen with the right to cast a vote as provided
for in the constitution of the United States for any citizen.
Even the unions and common Causes cannot equal the financial
resources that other nations and multinational corporations
have to get their Special Interest done over the will of the
American voters. The 1.6+ millions dollars a day that the
Health Care Industries are presently spending to lobby against
The Health Care Revisions will pale in comparison of the money
that now is allowed by the Court Ruling today.
Most importantly this is an
indication that this war between the government of, by and for
the people is being won by the corporations that are of, by,
and for the CEOs.

HAITI
2010 SAME AS HAITI 1800!!
(WRITTEN,2010)
(UNEDITED,
UNABRIDGED)
One of the gravest and most evil sins committed
by America today is to actively force the Haitians people to
stay on a nonproductive, land locked, island and slowly starve
to death. America by the use of its superior political,
military, and armorial power, supported by our so-called
Christian Religious Industrial Complex is deliberately keeping
a people confined in an inhuman land mass.
(Carl
Lindskoog,
AlterNet, Haiti
Didn't Become a Poor Nation All on Its Own -- The U.S's Hidden
Role in the Disaster,
AlterNet.,
January 15, 2010.)
Haitians are the slaves, who were brought from
Africa. Docked in an interim station and finally left by their
enslavers to starve and suffer. America has become the latest
keeper of this group of unfortunate humans on a “Prison
Island.”
(Robert
Parry, Haiti's Tragic History Is Entwined with the Story
of America,
Consortium News., January 14, 2010.)
Haiti's regional, historical, and ethnolinguistic position
is unique for several reasons. It was the first independent
nation in the Caribbean, the first postcolonial independent
Black nation in the world, and the only nation whose
independence was gained as part of a successful slave
rebellion. For this they have been punished by keeping them
in a state of land locked servitude and poverty. Haiti is
the only predominantly French Speaking nation in the
Caribbean, and one of only two in North American nation
(along with Canada) which designate French as an official
language; the other French-speaking North American countries
are all overseas.
Unlike Cuba
there is no policy that will allow Haitians to come to
American. If they do come as boat people, they are caught at
sea and promptly taken back to Haiti! Haiti's approximately
9 million citizens have expressed many times that they would
like to be a territory or state of the United States. It is
not the numbers of Haitians that causes the U. S. the
problem. It is Haiti's ethnic population of 95% Black, 5%
Mulatto, and a few whites. (James
Ridgeway, How Bush-Cheney Policy
Screwed Haiti, Jan. 13, 2010)
Come
on America fess up and do the right thing!!! Haiti is a
tragedy of America’s making and the present day problems only
serves to assent the extent of this longstanding cruel and
“American Racist” policy of boycott!
What do you think??

 ELECTION
YEAR 2010 IS THE YEAR WHERE AMERICA MUST CLEAN UP THE NATURE
OF IT’S POLITICS!!
(WRITTEN January
1, 2009)
(UNEDITED, UNABRIDGED)
 My
fellow Americans, elections 2010 year is the critical cycle in
which we must work hard to clean up and refocus the way we
conduct our political business and the expected, accepted
character of our political
leaders. The unchallenged use of lies, fear, emotions,
incivility, racism, sexism, must be systematically fought
at every opportunity. On January 2, 2010 a headline read, “Political
Climate Changing Against Democrats!” It should have read,
“Political Climate Changing Against Politicians of bad
Character!”
In addition, our
politicians are the number one supporters of America’s
preoccupation with “Stupidly!” In fact they
deliberately enhance and exploit it at every opportunity. The
phase “Common Sense” I has been made a synonym
to “Stupidly” in order to make the public feel
comfortable with remaining uninformed and uneducated!! The
voter is told many times, “Don’t let the eggheads, elite,
college people make you feel that you do not know something.
We are just using our “Common Sense!”
For example, Americans
can and must make it a critical unforgivable error for the
lies being told and accepted as an expected, tolerated
activity of a politician. Lies are hurtful and
unacceptable, therefore, for politicians as they are for
everybody else and one of the gravest of the “Seven Deadly
Sins” which include, Greed, Pride, Envy, Gluttony,
Lust, Anger, Sloth (the seven recognized deadliest sins
according to the classics)! Further, breaking of the Judo-
Christian morals embodied in the Ten Commandments (ONE:
'You shall have no other gods before Me. TWO: 'You shall not
make for yourself a carved image. 'THREE: 'You shall not take
the name of the LORD your God in vain. 'FOUR: 'Remember the
Sabbath day, to keep it holy.' FIVE: 'Honor your father and
your mother.'SIX: 'You shall not murder.' SEVEN: 'You shall
not commit adultery.' EIGHT: 'You shall not steal.' NINE: 'You
shall not bear false witness against your neighbor.' TEN: 'You
shall not covet your neighbor's house; you shall not covet
your neighbor's wife, nor his male servant, nor his female
servant, nor his ox, nor his donkey, nor anything that is your
neighbor's.' ) and in violation of America’s
laws against perjury must also be applied to politicians. Then
there is the act to show our political leaders that adultery
and evil is as abhorrent in a politician as it is in the
voters and American citizen at large. Punishment must be swift
and appropriate for the violations. Maybe stoning, cutting
hands off, tar and fathering, lock up, and hanging should be
done with great frequency!!
There needs
to be provided a firm definition of the fact that unless there
is some tenantable evidence that a deliberate lie is being
told. The positions of providing bad information based on a
condition of having a position of “plausible deniability”
(e.g. a bad memo or other written material) will not be
acceptable.
A solid list
of people of proven honesty must be established by their
demonstrated acts of “Busting” a liar regardless if
their public stature. This list must include such proven
people as Rachel Maddow, Crist Mathews, Kieth Oberman, CSPAN,
Rev Jackson, Congressman Hasting, Gnatt Report. Frankly
Speaking, Huffington, etc.
American citizens of
limited resources can themselves research, Google, yahoo, then
strike, strike, and strike again by posting through blogs and
letters and articles, ads, signs, soap box stands, and any
other medium necessary!!!

CONGRESS DOWN DIRTY AND SUCCESSFUL, SO FOR!!!
(WRITTEN December, 2009)
(UNEDITED, UNABRIDGED)
The democrats have voted
to bring the Health Care Reform Bill to a vote on Sunday,
December 20 when they mustered 60 Democrats votes necessary to
avoid a Phi buster by the Republicans. (Erica Werner,
Morning Votes Nudge Health Care Bill Forward, AP, SPHERE,
12/23/2009) This vote was hard fought and not without
some remarkable and sad antics by the Republicans and
Democrats. There was no Statesmanship among the
Republican rabble. They were barbaric cutthroat, back ally,
southern style, politicians of the worst character!
There was an instance
where a Republican provided a prayer from the podium that
asked for Senator Byrd to die before the next vote was taken.
Senator Al. Franking gave a presentation, which was
interrupted frequently by Republicans “Farting” into
their microphones and “cat calls” during his delivery.
Frankin also took the unusual action of denying Liberman’s
request for one more minute to finish a presentation he was
making to prolong the proceedings. The Republicans had a
700-page document read into the record for the purpose of
slowing down the vote on the bill. And so on it went.
Congresspersons from both sides of the isle were openly
bargaining for handout for their vote on the issue!
However, a vote was
finally taken resulting in the moving forward the most insane,
convoluted, Health Industry Entitlement Bill in the history of
bad legislation for the country!
This bill sat the
stage for the many Ponz/Pyrimide schemes of and for Private
Health Industries and will serve as enabling and establishing
in epic proportions a legal monopoly in defiance of the
existing Anti Trust Laws and philosophies. This is essentially
an entitlement bill for the Health Care Industry, which will
be paid for by the already dissolving Middle Class Americans.
There was a visible absence of any ‘Public Option” or “method"
to provide competition for the Private Health Industry.
Ironically this resulted
in political wins for both Democrats and Republicans. The
Democrats will be able to position their record as a "doer
and promise keeper" for the 2010-2012 elections and the
Republicans will be able to provide their party with the
demonstrated ability to fight and win the profits for Private
Industry, which is their primary objective at all times!
However, this is not over.
The democrats have one more chance in “Bill Reconciliation
Process” to add back some semblance of a "Public Option” to
create competition and relief for the American citizen.
(Scarecrow and Jon Walker, Obama's Senate Health Care Bill:
A "Uniquely American" Idiocy (and 35 Ways It Can Be Fixed),
December 22, 2009)
Fellow Americans these are
serious, dangerous, and scary times. The future of our nation
and the world is depending on how American conducts this
Democratic Republic experience.
Americans should thank
God for Obama, who demonstrated the highest level of
Statesmanship. He laid the politician role aside and took on
the Statesman’s role of national and international concern!

AFGHANISTAN WAR FOR OIL PROFITS!!!
LESS
WE FORGET!
(WRITTEN August 18,
2009)
(UNEDITED, UNABRIDGED)
It seems that Americans have
settled on the fact that the war in Afghanistan is a most
necessary must do "Patriotic War.” But what is this war
really being fought for.
As quite as it is
kept and hard as it is to remember, America Oil Companies have a
prime Business objective the construction of oil pipe line across
the country of Afghanistan. However, reason for this continuing
war on Afghanistan soil had been sold by the administration as a
war to stamp out the Acadia group and to get Bin Laden!! An
article by Bill Sardi reminds
us that the oil line is still the primary reason for America being
in this war. Sardi reports in part,
“Testimony before the US Congress is circulating on
the internet. It pertains to a proposed oil pipeline through
Central Asia that is applicable to the current war in
Afghanistan.”
(Bill
Sardi, Is an Oil Pipeline Behind
the War in Afghanistan?,
LewRockwell.com, October
15, 2001)
On February 12, 1998, John
J. Maresca, vice president, international relations for UNOCAL oil
company, testified before the US House of Representatives,
Committee on International Relations. Maresca provided information
to Congress on Central Asia oil and gas reserves and how they
might shape US foreign policy to fit the notion that the UNOCAL's
oil line problem is not the reason for the war but that the reason
for the war is a moral and national safety issue!!. Therefore, in
1998 Osama Bin Laden was identified as the villain behind the
Taliban, Afghanistan women the victims of an oppressive Taliban
regime, and the stage was set for a future stabilization effort
(i.e. a war). The tear jerking issue of women's rights were
introduced into Congressional testimony by Congressman Rohrbacher
as the wedge for UNOCAL to build its pipeline through Afghanistan.
This was all a cover story for a future oil pipeline construction
for private profit.
Obama has
inherited this war and is overpowered to show his support and to
work for it continuation. Here again Americans are being lied to
by the continuing support of this war by Obama. Bush and his
Administration have laid a foundation that is lasting far beyond
their demise. When and where does this cancerous Bush Mega machine
stop being a driving force in America's life?

LET US VOTE OUT THE SPECIAL INTEREST
CONGRESSPERSONS-LET THE HEALTH CARE REFORM PUBLIC OPTION
VOTE BE OUR GUIDE!!
(WRITTEN
December 15, 2009)
(UNEDITED,
UNABRIDGED)
These next two weeks
of December 14 –30, 2009 are the most critical weeks may be
in the resent history of America's Democratic Republic
history. Never before with the possible exclusion of going
to war has the American voter given an elected Congress so
clear a mandate as that of reforming Health Care in America.
The voter expected in the magnitude of his vote and the
pursing polls that the present private Health Care Industry
must be provided some competition by creating ”Public
Insurance” option run by the Federal Government! There
is no doubt that the way America's Congresspersons create
and vote the present Health Care Legislation is an indicator
of their dedication to up holding the expectation of them
providing services of, by, and for the people that voted
them into office.
This is
the classic “Litmus” test for the moral and honest
executions of the sown duties of an elected official. It is
a simple easy to see issue, “Are our elected
officials in office to legally carry out business of, by,
and for the people or are they in to do as they as please
and in the mean time collect pay-offs for their support of
Private Interest of The Pharmaceuticals and Medical Insurers?”
Lieberman (received abut $400,000.00) and Boyd (received
about 125,000.00) are two glaring example of the way some of
our elected officials choose to do business for Private
Special Interest in stead of business of and for the voters.
Both of these Congressman have been reported to have
received large amounts of money followed by the casting of
their votes against the competition that a Public Option in
the Health Care Reform Legislation that would bring
affordable Health Services to more people.
Moreover, when all this voting is
over, any Congressperson that votes against a “Public
Option” in the “Health Care Reform Legislation” is not a
representative of the people and must be voted out with
explanation or subsequent consequent consideration!! The
lies, double talk, Casey Stingle like, convoluted politician
explanations must not prevail this time. It is did you vote
for or against the “Public Option” in the
legislation. If you voted for the
you are in again! If you voted against it you are out of
office in 2010-2012!

By: Issac Morgan,
FAMU 2009
IKEMAN HAS A HEADACHE-WHY??? A BLACK STUDENT'S LOOK AT
INTEGRATED EDUCATION!!
PREFACE
“To be truly successful, a
person must first establish the highest level of positive
‘self-concept/” For a Black person this preparation must
include gaining a solid irrefutable perception of their
place in the human chain. In integrated education a Black
experiences; Oppression-Tension-Pain (a big headache
literally)!!If you are going to higher education and compete
in the American predominately white institutions you must
carry your place with you. You cannot go in looking for
someone to give you a place.
In getting this solid
self-concept I have found that attending a historically
Black institution, as an undergraduate, is the best place to
get this well rounded foundation. With this firm foundation
you can be a better competitor in the pluralistic society
where the norm is to place you in a place by skin color. You
must take you place with you as you sit down to provide your
skills in all the situations that you are certain to face.
This is my sincere and best
advice that I can provide to my fellow brothers and
sisters!” External (individual and institutional white
discrimination) discrimination brings for Blacks,
Pressure-Tension-Headaches that forces a Black to carry with
themselves/internal oppression-tension pain!
Call me Ikeman!! Issac Morgan they named me. I was blessed
by having the greatest Mother a boy could ever have. She was
a divorced single and acted as the father, mother,
breadwinner and spiritual advisor for my three brothers and
me. I am the youngest of the four boys in my family. Without
her I am certain that my life would have been an unbearable
disaster. She has more love in her little finger than most
people have I their whole body. The family had nothing but
poverty. But this was a
 poverty
of things. We were rich indeed in the wealth that human love
and caring brings!
My
brothers were outstanding athletes. They had their place in
the Black part of the institution. They had their female
following. I was left to compete in the world where a Black
scholar was an outcast. And when placed in the accelerated
classes, where few Black were I was the mascot. I was
nothing! But I did have my headache to keep me company! All
the time my headache was with me-God is good all the time-my
headache was there all the time!!
As
a student I was the victim of what was called integrated
schools. This situation found me always in the racial
minority, I saw mainly white instructors. These were my
authority figures. I was unwittingly convinced that all
Blacks were follows and in the minority when it came to the
great thinkers of this world. This was my grades one through
12 schooling and it continued when I attended community
college for my first two years of higher education. I did
what was required of me as best I could and made it through
to the AA Degree. Then I tried the atmosphere of another
white institution for my last two years to get the BS. I was
Ok and doing the passing with the same type of strategies
that had gotten me through the other schools. But I began to
have these big headaches. Here I was a very young boy
walking around with a Headache!
My many trips to the doctor resulted in me
getting the famous universal cure all “pills.”
It started with one pill and ended up with many. Here I was
a boy walking around with a headache and a pocket full of
pills, for God’s sake. No body knew the troubles I saw. It
was Extreme S-T-R-E-S-S brought
about by isolation and alienation!!!
Even I did not understand this thing. This day here I was
standing on the campus at about 10:00 am. No body around
much except my headache and me. I was looking for a place to
sit in the mist of many paces to sit. I ended up sitting on
the curb holding my miserable head and it ache in my hands.
What is this? Who are my peers and where are they? I am
alone in a sea of students. Isolated and alienated. My, my
how confusing this was. Why is my good head giving me this
not so good feeling? I was trying to come to grips with a
situation of which I had no grasp. I was the invisible man!!
For some reason I decided to transfer to a Traditionally
Black University. This was my place of enlightenment.
Now here I was in the middle of a sea of Black bodies. There
were hordes and hordes of Black beautiful women moving all
over the place. They were not the hoochie mamas that were
the reticule of other places. They were now the objects of
ceremony and pursuits! I was among the majority!!!
This turned out to be an important difference with my
situation. My headaches went away. This institution was
giving me great images of Black people with great frequency
and my instructors were saying some things that up to now
were ridiculous to me. Blacks were said to be great
contributors in the big and mysterious world. Blacks were
central to the pools of important and gifted people of the
world. It was as if my instructors were not ashamed to say
things that until now were said in passing and with little
promoted value. This was my education. This was my
foundation. I was getting to think that I was ready to get
the things that until now were in my grasp but not in my
cards.
The
stress, tension, and pain of being the mascot in a group of
not like me people was gone. I was whole for the first time
in my school life!!
Ah Yes,
it’s a sunny, sunny day, God is in his heaven and some part
of this paradise called earth just could be mine. Free at
last; free at last, thank God All Mighty, I’m Free at last!!
Now I
am ready to integrate the world!!
Most Black students have attended grade school where all
tier lived they were out numbered by while students and
having little notion that Black were people of authority
also. That is enough to give anyone a headache!
I am ready to compete in this pluralistic, multicultural,
world!

SOME AMERICANS STILL DO NOT UNDERSTAND THAT AMERICA MUST
RECOVER ITS ABILITY TO MANUFACTURE & PRODUCE GOODS AND HIRE
THE MIDDLE

(UNEDITED, UNABRIDGED)
Obama instituted a
plan to buy old "Clunker Automobiles" in exchange for
the purchase of an automobile that was more environmentally
friendly and to stimulate the American automobile industry.
But Americans that took advantage of this offer when out and
bought 50+% foreign cars!! (By Kathy Willens,
With clunker program over, some

Obama recently
announced in South Florida that a new plant had been
financed to produce wind driven equipment for the production
of electrify and to create jobs and stimulate the
manufacturing industry here on American soil. But some
companies took the money and went to China to buy the
equipment generating only 30 jobs in American and over 2000
jobs in China! (Robert L. Borosage"
"Chinese-Made
Turbines to Fill U.S. Wind Farm", CAMPAING FOR
AMERICA’S FUTURE, Wall Street Journal,

How insensitive and stupid can we Americans be not to
understand the seriousness of this un-American behavior? Its
jobs on American soil for American unemployed workers you
idiots!! This “Creed of Greed” in American Business
is so deep that only the bottom line is the driving force of
services rendered! But the use of the Economic Stimulus
funds in this manner is not only Immoral is down right
criminal and traitorous!
