Nelson Mandela and Political action

May Nelson Mandela rest in peace and my sincere condolences to his Family.
There is no easy way to say goodby to a truly wise Friend and Leader. May South Africans not forget him.

There are many Politically or Religiously motivate aspiring "Leaders" who still believe that Fear, Intimidation and Bullying is the way to move their Cause forward, hopefully the loss of such a Generous spirit will make those who cannot compromise "Pause and think" of what they can really do that will lead to a "Better World" for their followers.

There are Irish and Middle Eastern activists and Politicians who can learn from Nelson Mandela's legacy. I hope they do.   

Obama Politics and Love - Views and Opinions

These Opinions on Obama Politics and Love are mine alone.

The heady attraction of power and more importantly the responsibilities that it brings offer Obama a great opportunity to do real good for the American people and the the larger world population.

Can he finally bang heads together in the Middle East so that the senseless killing stops and the politicians recognize their responsibilities to protect their citizens and not use them as tools through which to exercise power?

Will he be able to help the poor at home? Particularly the ill and weak...

And can he survive the cowards who would do him harm because of his position and background?

What do you think.....
