Basic fundamentals were forgotten, what to expect when empires built with pack of cards? Sound economy will prevail only when we are grounded and without loosing focus on sustainable model. This is a learning opportunity, learn from past and from the world around us to build strong economy built on fundamental values. .

After eight years of the Bush Administration and the Republican Culture of Corruption, the United States has gone from surpluses to huge deficits, our standing in the world has dropped drastically and chances of world peace have eroded. We desperately need the steady and thoughtful leadership of Barack Obama to get our country back on track.

John McCain is confused, showing signs of dementia, is not looking healthy, likely to have his melanoma cancer return and is mindlessly spouting lies from his sleazy, dishonest campaign. John McCain has been in lockstep with George W Bush over 90% of the time. Another four years of Bush policies would totally destroy our country and that is what we would get with John McCain. If you believe John McCain's recent campaign lies that suddenly he would be different, then I have a Bridge to Nowhere to sell you.

Sarah Palin is clearly unqualified to be President, is a religious fundamentalist extremist who would take away a women's right to choose and would create an American Taliban reversing all the gains in civil rights. For the sake of our country, we must make sure that Barack Obama is elected President.

Gobbledy goop aside, is the theory that if everybody is broke, nobody can afford bombs & guns to wage war?

History does not support this notion.

If anything, poverty brings desperation. With desperation, there is nothing to lose. With nothing to lose, war is one option that may offer something to gain in the thinking of poverty-ridden desperate people.
