Latinos, Generals and Admirals Join Obama's TeamAmerica

In three short video clips, see the two most important political events of the week for TeamAmerica

Obama and Richardson in Portland, Oregon (2:14 Min)



I saw the Bill Richardson endorsement of Obama on the corporate media but I got no sense of the size of crowed that they were speaking to. Take a minute and look at this citizens video from the stands. You will see why the MSM who will not let us see our fallen soldiers come home did not give us the full picture of the crowd. You can't script this, you can't plan this. This is the American people standing up for a new day in America.

Now lets go to the narrow shot of the former Latino Presidential candidate's endorsement of Obama.

Bill Richardson Endorses Barack Obama (14:51 Min)


There are two reasons that Bill's endorsement of Obama is important. The obvious fact that it is a signal to the Latino community that it is ok and beneficial to join with Obama. This respected Latino leader was also the candidate with the most foreign policy experience. The second and very important reason, is the foreign policy seal of approval that Richardson's endorsement brings.

Take the time to listen to the full speech you will learn something about Obama's character in Bill's debate story that you and I did not know. Listen to how Multi-ethnic Americans recognize a common bond. Yes, sit back an listen to a well thought out description and assessment of Obama from the hart. This was not an easy think for bill to do given his friendship to the Clinton's. If you listen with a patriotic hart you will hear why he did it.

Now for the last, and to me as a veteran possibly Obama's most important endorsements, the Military endorsements.

Why retired Generals and Admirals support Barack Obama (2:13)



Air force, Army, Navy, National guard, giving experience based hard nosed assessments and endorsements of Obama's readiness to be America's next Commander in Chief. I know after you watched these soldiers, you are asking yourself why did I not see this important event that bears directly on the Iraq war in and endless loop on TV and YouTube?

I hope you enjoyed the piece. We need to be ready for November, so if you are from the great state of Pennsylvania don't keep this to yourself, tell a fellow Pennsylvanian were to get the weeks most important issue related election clips. In three short clips they will be as informed as you are.

The Full Uncut Rev. Wrights Speech

FOX Lies!! The real sermon given by Pastor Wright

I learned to following from one of my favroite news sites Conversations With Brothers and Sisters. The corprate media new Rev. Wright was quoting a Euroean American Ambassador Ed. Peck.

One of the most controversial statements in Reverend Jeremiah Wrights sermon delivered in 2001 was when he mentioned “chickens coming home to roost.” He was actually quoting Edward Peck, former U.S. Ambassador to Iraq and deputy director of President Reagan’s terrorism task force, who was speaking on FOX News. That’s what he told the congregation. He was quoting Peck as saying that America’s foreign policy has put the nation in peril. In this clip in context he is heard mentioning Pecks name who he is paraphrasing.

Clinton's Pastor Defends Obama's Pastor

The McCain Song: No, You Can't

John McCain: No, You Can't

Satire I think? Bush'/McCain said lighten up - this song goes in that direction. However, the message is serious, have fun but play close attention.

Body of War - an American Family's View of Iraq and War

Whenever you hear an Anti-humanists Republican mention their Bush/McCain 100 year war, recommend that they watch Body of War the documentary. The story of what the Bush/McCain war means to one American soldier and his family. In seeing him you will see us.

I fist heard about this story on Democracy Now, WBAi Radio in New York. There were those who voted for the war, than there were those who said stop!, we did not listen and look at what it cost us.

Winter Soldier: US Vets Voices Blacked Out by MSM (Poll)

US veterans gathered in Maryland this past weekend to testify at Winter Soldier, an eyewitness indictment of atrocities committed by US troops during the ongoing occupations in Iraq and Afghanistan. Soldiers spoke of free-fire zones, the shootings and beatings of innocent civilians, racism at the highest levels of the military, sexual harassment and assault within the military, and the torturing of prisoners. While the corporate media ignored the story, we broadcast their voices. Democracy Now was one of the few American media to cover this story.

The term Winter Solder comes from the following quote:
Winter 1776 - These are the times that try mans souls, the Summer soldier and the sunshine patriot will in this crises shrink from the service of his country, but he who stands it now, deserves the love and thanks of man and woman.

In November your country needs you to make an informed vote. Bush told us he listened to the Generals. Even if he did, that was at best poor judgment. The person to listen to is G.I. Joe. I hope you will take a minute to listen to your neighbor Joe in these clips and act accordingly.


Below are three clips. Talk with a Vietnam vet to 50 years after the war. The second clip is Winter Soldier I in 1971 the third is a brave soldier from Iraq testifying now in Winter Soldier II (2008) and giving his recommendations for the war.

This Clip is of a Vet from the Vietnam era when I was in the service (Pic. on the right-Aunk bottom left). A soldier who still suffers from PTSD all these years later. Testimony and pictures of what was done in country. Iraq has produced problems we did not have during Nam, woman soldiers and big VA Hospital problems.


How is our Vietnam Vet today?


It is important to note that Bush/McCain knows this happened in Vietnam and is happening in Iraq and he is in favor of continuing it.

Winter Soldier 1971 Clip Vietnam then

John as late as 2002 has used the Asian "N" word, gook and said he would never stop using it.


Now hear from the soldiers of the Bush/McCain Iraq War

Camilo Mejia, former staff sergeant who served six months in
Iraq in 2003 with the Florida National Guard. After a brief leave, he
refused to return. He was court-martialed and served nearly a year in
prison. He is now the chair of the board of Iraq Veterans Against the
War.

WINTER SOLDIER: CAMILO MEJIA In Iraq We add Bush Torture


Did you hear this soldier's recommendation for the war at the end of the clip? If not, go back an play the end. His recommendation hits the bottom line for this whole article.

The Bush/McCain War - How would you vote


The Bush/McCain War is 2nd on my list of top three issues. 1. is Health Care 2. is the Economy

Hillary Clinton: I would not vote for her. I believe anyone who
voted for the war should be removed from office, or otherwise made an
example of, so that their disgraceful judgment can never misrepresent
the American people again. This included democrats and should start
with Hillary.

This leaves Bush/McCain and Obama's Change this is how I see the choices.

Bush/McCain: Stay the course - up to 100 years.

Obama: End the war on day one - Troops out in 16 months.

If I were President I would do what was done in the criminal Vietnam war.
End occupation immediately, bring Americans out in 30 days flat. Any
thing we can not carry leave. Pay Iraq reparations for The American
Government's illegal acts against its people.

Before you saw these video clips you may not have really known about the war. God knows Bush/McCain and the forty thieves have controlled What you see, from making it illegal to photograph the coffins of our fallen soldiers, to Blacking out their voices in Winter Soldier. Your fellow Americans and the world forgives you if you voted for the Bush/McCain criminals in the past. The question is how will you vote now and why?

McCain - bomb bomb bomb, bomb bomb Iran

Little Asian Girl Napalmed By Americans in Vietnam.




Look at who is in this room with McCain. Which America does he stand for?

Grand Pa McCain does not belong in the White House, He belongs in the Mad House.

This is the person who called Asians "gooks" and was part of American anti-humanists who napalmed Asian children in Vietnam, and still proud of it. He takes credit for helping to lead the government that murdered and maimed 3 million plus Arabs in Iraq. Now he wants to bomb human beings in Iran.

Vote Smart in November, stop the madness.

Obama Race and Unity Speech

The White and Black anger excerpt from the speech ( 5.44 min)


Obama's much anticipated "race" speech was more about unity then the old politics of "race". He also challenged us Americans by asking us, do we want to have the old discussion or the new one?

Today Obama gave a speech in the home of the constitution Philadelphia, PA. He talked about the constitution's promise and practice and the gap. He talked about Black anger and White anger and how often this is a distraction from the business at hand. He made surprisingly Culturally Healthy statements regarding legitimate discussions of "race" and shined light on those in the media that would mislabel such discussions "political correctness" and "reverse racism". He reminded Americans to be mindful of those who would try to move us off course toward a more perfect union.

So as I listened to him talk about my older Rev. Wright generation and his generation and the new generation that he is attracting to politics, it dawned on me, that his speech was more about unity than "race". He ended with a TeamAmerica challenge, .do you (voters) want to have the old discussion on "race" or would you rather have the new discussion on American issues like War, the economy and health care.

I was pleased to see this remarkable individual be wise enough to turn the negative attacks into a National Cultural Health Learning opportunity. .

This article's Newsvine poll asks you to answer the question, was Obama's speech successful? The answer depends on what you want to talk about going forward.

Africa is Burning

I had a discussion with Olando a friend on Newsvine. I have reproduced my comments here using the Title of his article Africa Burning which caused me and should cause all of use to think more
Critically about what is happening on the continent and what we can do about it.


Hetep and Respect The Observer, Africa Burning, this is an important observation. I have clipped it to my column. In addition to your list I would add The Bush/McaCain Africom Attack on Africa.

Rwandan War

Sudan War

Darfur War

Ethiopia attacks Somalia

It should be noted that in all such wars Western governments allow and sometimes promote the sale of weapons to both sides. This fanning of the flames keeps Africa burning, so the West (Anti-Humanist Gov'ts) can keep control and keep stealing the natural resources of the richest continent on the face of the earth.

At times is seems as if all the continent of Africa is warring.

This is true. We must keep in mind the Cultural War c. 1675 B.C.E. - to Present. While this war is in Cold War status in most of the world, it is still hot on some parts of the continent. There are also the after effects of the Cultural War, some of which you are reporting on in this article.

In high school we studied the Holocaust and the senseless insufferable genocide of by most counts, 5 to 6 million Jewish people. The shameful truth is that humanity continues to allow this level of remorseless violence to spread across the African continent.

This is part of the problem, no one studies the African Holocaust. Most humanists did not learn about World War Zero (WW0) c.1492 - 1947 and the 100 million innocent African men, women and children lost. This is not typically learned in high school or university. Without this aspect of Cultural Literacy, effective analysis of current continental conditions is problematic.

Rwanda, It is estimated that 400,000 people died before President Clinton and the rest of the western world noticed ... British sources put the total murdered at 4.7 million people.

This demonstrates that Anti-humanist Governments are not interested in all Human beings. We Africans and Humanist of good will must take this responsibility if it is to be taken at all.

On our watch, entire ethnic races of people

Cultural Literacy Minute: There is one race the human race and many ethnic groups.

Why is the West so slow to help stop the killing in Africa?

I would direct your attention to Bush's AFRICOM, (See Blog Archive Nov 5 2007 on the right side of page)

As the British Empire, the French, the Dutch, and others were driven out of Africa, they left a void that in many cases was filled by warlords and marauding armies.

They left not just a void, WW0 left Cultural Poisoning and artificial geographical national boundaries. We see the effects of artificial ethnic boundaries that are at the hart of the Rwandan War. We must take personal responsibility to correct this and Restore Cultural Literacy, otherwise Africans at home and abroad will be like the dog that chases its tail.

It is important to note, that a culturally unhealthy continent without sanctions for Cultural Treason will continue to Burn.


My Recommendation The Africa 2.0 Project, that is those interested in seeing a self-sufficient United States of Africa, turn to China and the Asians in addition to Western humanists to achieve the goals of increased Cultural Literacy and reduced Cultural poisoning. We must brining African Leaders who have committed Cultural Treason to African (USA2) justice. This is what will reduce violence and move Africans toward controlling and utilizing our continent's natural resources to restore the motherland's well being.

In the near term the Africa/Asia connection is a mission critical relationship. A new bread of Humanist might put Obama at the head of the visionary task of Constructing The United States of America 2.0, but the continent can not count on this. Even if an Obama visionary Presidency happens, it will take some considerable time to turn the American ship of state onto a more humanist heading.

Unfortunately America is burning in its own way and we will be using most of our water to put out fires here at home or we will be throwing gasoline on the fires everywhere depending on who gets elected.

Are Anti-Humanist Republicans getting ready to Buy the 08 Vote?

The President of Dibold is known to have said he would do everything he could to get Bush elected and he seems to have been very effective. Not to mention the Dibold secret code that voters are forbidden to look at.


The United Technologies Corporation made public on Sunday an unsolicited $3 billion bid for Diebold, one of the largest makers of automated teller machines and voting machines.

What does this outrageous unpatriotic act against voters mean for the 08 Election?
