One o...Nice post, Abbeysbooks.<BR/><BR/>I've this one friend. One on one, he is very thoughtful and considerate, but add more people to the equation, and he takes on a less thoughtful disposition; The herd mentality, so to speak.<BR/><BR/>In schools, one strategy is to minimize the numbers of student in a class to fifteen. Any more than that, and what you are saying starts to unfortunately come into play.<BR/><BR/>As for Obama, it's one thing to work within the system in order to change it. He's gonna have to toughen up and take chances. Hopefully, Obama realises that this is his chance to save the planet. Let's hope he is up to the challenge and not susceptible to doing whatever he feels he needs to do to win a second term. <BR/><BR/>In fact, if he doesn't start to break away from the old boys network, if he doesn't start rolling the dice for humanity, he will not win that second term. He will be blamed for the state of things he inherited.<BR/><BR/>It is time to slash that military-industrial complex budget drastically and put those funds into stimulating social and environmental justice.Tokyo Shemphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01764134901412321022noreply@blogger.com
