Think! Open your eyes, your ears, and your minds. Question everything. As students you are the future of our country. You will also inherit and be greatly affected by what is going on in our country today. Put aside whether you are a democrat, republican, independent, libertarian, liberal, or conservative, or whatever your beliefs. Just think for a moment about what is confronting our nation and what will be dramatically affecting your future life.
At the federal level we have out of control spending. Our national debt is fast approaching $12 trillion. This year's budget deficit alone is projected to be $1.85 trillion. Additional programs are being stampeded through an irresponsible Congress that will add even more; trillions upon trillions of dollars to our debt. This gigantic financial burden will be placed directly on YOUR shoulders and your future families. Much of this enormous spending legislation is being pushed through under the guise of "do good" programs that in reality will not make things better, but even worse while bankrupting America. I urge you to study it, READ IT, question it, get the real facts from an objective viewpoint, not by what you are just told, no matter what the source. Use your own minds and intelligence to get to the truth.
The work "socialism" is frequently and somewhat casually mentioned today as if were just another innocuous ideology. It is not. Words like "distribution of wealth", "public ownership of property", "helping the poor" are frequently used to make socialism appear attractive. In reality it is about federal government control over all aspects of our lives. The government owns and dictates, not the people. Personal freedoms become restricted. Information sources and the media are controlled. Yes, people are taken care of, but at a lower level of existence of life while a ruling elite emerges. What is sure to evolve is that sooner or later people will not be satisfied to be "taken care of" at some lower level of existence. When this occurs the ruling elite will become stronger and stronger in order to keep people under control. The result will be a totalitarian dictatorship where the people will be under a very oppressive form of government. This is the natural evolution of socialism. Study history.
People today are "fed" what to think through a process of propaganda and even indoctrination. Whether you realize it or not, you are not allowed to form your own opinions on subjects. It is cleverly fed to you. Much of it is under seemingly "do good" programs and titles. But if you REALLY look at the facts and study objectively both sides of issues, many of these programs, directions, legislation, etc. are not really what they appear to be or sold to be.
Your future is at stake. Dramatic change is happening to our country. This is an appeal for you to get involved. This is not, however, an appeal for you to get involved by FOLLOWING. Open your eyes, ears and minds. Study issues deeply, get the facts, and objectively look at all and any issues from both sides. Use your God given intelligence to make up your OWN minds.
I have great faith in young people and students. Our country is at stake like never before in our history. Your future lives are at stake. Don't be silent. Get involved. Voice your opinions. Take action in a positive way, but take action. You have great unused power. Use it constructively, but use it. America needs you!

Indoctrination in Education
From elementary school all the way to colleges and universities we have indoctrination taking place within our schools.
The great history of our country is being replaced by false anti-American and anti-democracy textbooks. School children are being shown cartoon lectures preaching socialism and anti-Americanism.
Unproven theories of climate and global warming related movies and materials, using scare tactics, are being forced upon young children in our schools.
Darwinism / evolution teaching is being forced upon students with no opportunity for alternate views such as our creation by God.
There is an attempt to remove all aspects of our Christian / Judeo heritage from our schools under a false interpretation of the Constitution while allowing other religions and ideologies to be freely presented in our schools.
A gay agenda and lifestyle is being forced upon young school children in everything from textbooks to various forms of teaching.
Our colleges and universities are comprised of 80 to 90% left and even far left administrations and faculties, there is no balance in education. Many, schools are reported teaching socialism and a far left agenda outside of the realm of the courses being taught. Many students fear a failing grade unless they go along.
Recently, the glorification of the Obama himself and the Obama agenda is occurring in classrooms of young children.
The National Education Association (NEA) and other teacher's unions require dues from teachers, yet their cause is dedicated to the far left and partisan politics. Disturbingly, they have great influence over education in America.
How is it that these text books and various forms of teaching, that is repulsive to the majority of Americans, are allowed to get into the classrooms? How do they get there? Who approves it?
We want this widespread indoctrination of our children to stop and stop now!

No Transparency in Obama Gov't
President Obama promised transparency with his administration. Yet to date his administration has been one of the LEAST transparent administrations in history. Critical, high impact, and enormously important legislation has been rammed through Congress without allowing time for anyone to read it, including many of those in Congress, let alone the American people. Currently senators are negotiating on Senator Max Baucus' healthcare proposal and when finalized they have no intention of letting the American people have a chance to read it!
On a partisan vote, Democrats in the Senate Finance Committee squashed an amendment by Senator Jim Bunning that would have required the Baucus' bill to be posted on the Internet for all Americans to read 72 hours prior to the Committee voting on it. Also denied was a request to allow people to see how much the bill would cost as assessed by the independent, non partisan, Congressional Budget Office so the real impact could be known before a vote.
The plan appears to be an attempt to pass the Baucus proposal under a cloak of secrecy without telling concerned Americans what it will cost and how it will affect our healthcare.
This is not only outrageous, but it is contrary to our whole concept of democracy through a representative form of government...yet of the people, by the people, and for the people. There is NO transparency and people are not a factor in this government.
Where is the press and media on this? You are doing a great, great disservice to America by your failure to objectively report the truth.

Why Corruption Must Be Stopped
Huge dollar numbers, today, are tossed around like they are almost meaningless...trillions and billions of dollars! Let's put things into perspective. The City of Chicopee, Massachusetts has a population of approximately 55,000 people. The median income per household is $36,000 per year and the average income per capita is only $19,000. Approximately 12.3% of the population are below the poverty line.
The most recent annual budget, fiscal year 2010, of the City of Chicopee is $148 million.
Yet an organization like ACORN, that the American people know is widely corrupt, was slated to get $8.5 billion of taxpayer "stimulus" money!
Now let's put that into perspective. That $8.5 billion slated to be given to a corrupt organization would pay for the annual budget of Chicopee, Massachusetts for 57 years!! That's right, 57 years!
Think about it.

The State vs. The American People
The situation in our nation is fast becoming one of the State (the government) vs. the American people. The American people have a very serious and growing concern over widespread corruption, out of control spending, increasing taxes, high unemployment, too much federal government control, lack of voice in government, radicals in key positions in government, apologizing to the world about America, indoctrination of young school children and students at all levels of education, loss of freedoms, and even more. As a consequence people who normally are quiet are waking up and speaking up. There is a groundswell spreading across America, neighbor to neighbor, in the coffee shops and lunch rooms, in the work place, at barber shops and beauty salons...all over the country. This major movement is being misunderstood, misconstrued, and underestimated. It is occurring at all age levels, across race, and even across political party lines.
Those in Washington, rightfully criticized, are reacting by considering the people who are speaking up with disdain, rather than true citizens of our country. In fact they are treating the American people as the enemy! In the past, the vast majority of people in America have been quiet, and what you hear and read about are the vocal minority, or those who have definite agenda based organizations. Yet this new groundswell is much larger in number than realized and is a true grass roots level movement.
The people now speaking up are just ordinary Americans, not mobsters, Nazi's, right wing radicals, crazies, etc. The rallies across America have been peaceful, orderly, and respectful, not like many others where there is the tendency toward hate and violence. They even clean up after themselves which is rare. There are always a few that attend that might be on the fringe but this no way represents the entirety, not even close. They are people who are deeply concerned about the direction of our country and the predictable gloomy future that will surely result for themselves, their children and grandchildren. The movement is growing through networking by people discovering that there are many others who share the same deep concerns. All kinds of false accusations are levied upon them, much of this coming from the White House and many in Congress, as well as the media. Yet they are wrong, and they are not going away. They are laying in wait for the next opportunity to vote. They are organizing to change to current misdirection of the country. They are a powerful new force in America. The old adage of waking a sleeping giant applies!
Yet in America today, shamefully, we have a situation where those elected to represent us are not listening, in fact they refuse to listen with an attitude that they know better. Worse, what we have occurring in America today is a situation where The State considers the American people as the enemy.

Turn on the Water!
Madness! That is the only way to describe the actions by our federal government in cutting off the water supply to one of the most fertile and important farming areas in the United States, the San Joaquin Valley in California. Former Fresno Mayor Alan Autry called the action by our federal government an act of domestic terror citing that after 9/11 Homeland Security asked him to work with them to protect the water supply since it was considered "vital" to America's food supply. Yet we now have federal orders to shut off water to this area for an unproven theory about protecting a 2 inch smelt. Utter craziness!
This act by our federal government has devastated the state's farm economy. In the inland areas the jobless rate has hit 14.3%, with some farming towns like Mendota seeing unemployment numbers near 40%. In August, 50 mayors from the San Joaquin Valley signed a letter pleading to observe the devastating situation and to take action. This has caused a loss of 40,000 jobs and has resulted in Americans standing in food lines! Even further it deprives America with approximately 12% of our food supply, has a negative impact of billions upon billions of dollars upon our economy, and forces us to rely upon food imported from China, Mexico, and South America with all the associated health risks.
Over 83 billion gallons per month of water that was normally dedicated to the farming fields are now dumped out to the ocean. The result is 300,000 acres of precious farming land that is now dried out and parched, it actually makes you sick to the stomach to see it.
We have a situation and a federal government that is out of control, that is willfully and purposely hurting America, destroying jobs, damaging and restricting our food supply, hurting our economy, and causing unnecessary health risks. We have a federal government that not only ignores the American people, but the pleas of many responsible representatives of government including mayors, elected state representatives, congressmen, governors, and responsible media.
There should be outrage. What are we doing to our country? TURN ON THE WATER!

Barack Obama - A Question of Character
President Barack Obama - A Question of Character
During the presidential election, several of Barack Obama's past relationships raised some very serious questions about Obama, his character and agenda for America. Since his election there have been further alarms over his continuing poor choices of those who surround his presidency. Following is only a partial list.
Reverend Jeremiah Wright...A radical preacher who spews racism and anti-Americanism. Obama was married by him, had his daughters baptized by him, and was a member of his congregation for 20 years. Yet Obama claims he did know what he was like?
Bill Ayers and his wife, Bernardine Dohrn...Responsible for 1970 bombings of the Pentagon, U.S. Capitol, and other government buildings. Most likely responsible for the murder of a San Francisco policeman. Members of a communist terrorist gang called the Weather Underground whose aim was to support communist regimes and anti-American movements around the world and destroy the United States. The group received terrorist training in Communist Cuba and were advised by Soviet and Cuban intelligence agents. Ayers and Dohrn hosted a meet-and-greet at their house to introduce Obama to their neighbors during his first run for the Illinois Senate.
Sam Graham-Felsen... A hardcore Marxist who hung a Communist Party flag in his Harvard campus apartment and published a self-professed "revolutionary Marxist" journal. He joined Obama for America where he worked for the New Media department and he ran the daily blog presenting Obama's presidential campaign's public face.
Franklin Raines...This criminal was an Obama campaign adviser. As an executive at Fannie Mae, he illegally coerced his employees to falsify accounting facts so he’d get a maximum bonus. The government-backed firm used Enron-like fraud, in part at Raines’s orders, to create the largest bail-out in US history. Raines had the whistleblower fired. He took over $90 Million from Fannie Mae.
Rahm Emanuel... Obama’s Chief of Staff, once said, “Rule one: Never allow a crisis to go to waste. They are opportunities to do big things.” Emanuel mailed a rotten fish to a former coworker after the two parted ways. On the night after the 1996 election, Emanuel was so angry at the president's enemies that he stood up at a celebratory dinner with colleagues from the campaign, grabbed a steak knife and began rattling off a list of betrayers, shouting 'Dead! ... Dead! ... Dead!' and plunging the knife into the table after every name. This person who is known as a vicious politician is now a key Obama adviser. It is no surprise that those American citizens who voice opposition to Obama’s policies are labeled as the enemy and are ridiculed by the Obama administration.
Dr. Ezekiel Emanuel… A health policy advisor to President Obama and brother of Obama Chief of Staff Rahm Emanuel. Dr. Emanuel believes doctors try too hard to apply the Hippocratic Oath to everyone as equally as possible, which is what drives up costs. Instead Emanuel thinks we need to ration basic guaranteed care to only those who can fully participate in society. Essentially Dr. Emanuel implies that the elderly, the young who have neurological disorders, the handicapped, and the disabled should be sacrificed for the common good.
Van Jones…Obama’s "green jobs" adviser /czar whose exposed past forced him to resign. The very fact that Obama appointed him raises serious questions. He is a self proclaimed communist and Marxist who has been advocating using the green / environmental agenda as an excuse / entry into radically changing America most probably into a socialist, even communist state. He signed a document saying that the 9/11 attack on the United States was an inside job. He was a San Francisco Bay Area radical agitator, a committed Marxist-Leninist-Maoist, who waged war on the police and capitalist system. Van Jones went on to lead the communist organization called Standing Together to Organize a Revolutionary Movement (STORM). A key adviser to Obama?
Carol M. Browner…Obama’s Climate and Energy Czar, was listed as one of 14 leaders of a socialist group's Commission for a Sustainable World Society, which calls for “global governance” and says rich countries must shrink their economies to address climate change. Socialist International, an umbrella group for many of the world's social democratic political parties, says it supports socialism and is harshly critical of U.S. policies.
Harold Koh…An Obama appointee and a high-ranking legal adviser in the State Department , former dean of the Law School at Yale University. Koh is an advocate of transnationalism, which is defined as being a concept that argues in favor of “global governance” as opposed to the constitutional sovereignty of independent nation-states. In other words, he does not support the sovereignty of the United States and the supremacy of the U.S. Constitution as the law of the land. Koh supports the introduction of sharia law into the United States.
John Holdren…This is Obama’s Science Czar who believes women could be forced to abort their pregnancies whether they wanted to or not; the population at large could be sterilized by infertility drugs intentionally put into the nation’s drinking water or in food; single mothers and teen mothers should have their babies seized from them against their will and given away to other couples to raise; people who “contribute to social deterioration” (i.e. undesirables) “can be required by law to exercise reproductive responsibility” , in other words, be compelled to have abortions or be sterilized. He also advocates that a transnational “Planetary Regime” should assume control of the global economy and also dictate the most intimate details of Americans’ lives, using an armed international police force. This appointment was made by the President of the United States!
Mark Lloyd… This is Obama’s Federal Communication Commission Diversity Czar. He is an open admirer of Marxist Hugo Chavez of Venezuela. In 2006 while at the liberal Center for American Progress Lloyd wrote a book entitled, Prologue to a Farce: Communications and Democracy in America. In the book he presents the idea the private broadcasters (private business) should pay a licensing fees which equals their total operating costs so that public broadcasting station can spend the same on their operations as the private companies do. Not only does he want to redistribute private profits, he wants to regulate much of the programming on these stations to make sure they focus on “diverse views” (Progressive Views) and government activities. He essentially wants government control of the media and wants to throttle radio and television media that might be considered right wing, in favor of government controlled left wing.
Cass Sunstein… This is Obama’s Regulatory Czar. Sunstein believes that hunting should be banned and animals should have the right to sue people. He also believes there should be a Fairness Doctrine for the Internet, that there is too much open and free communication allowed.
George Soros…Through a network of organizations Soros has been a major supporter of Barack Obama. Some are of the opinion that he has contributed huge sums of money both legally and illegally through his confusing network and that he exercises undue and dangerous influence on our country, and especially now upon the Obama administration. His funding is thought to have caused the democratic party being taken over by the far left. Soros, a socialist, calls the United States a danger to world peace, he wants to subordinate the United States to the United Nations or some other international government., essentially have us become part of a one world government. Near all of his funded network of organizations is aimed at undermining or upsetting American society.
Eric Holder...This is Obama's Attorney General. In the closing days of the Clinton administration, Holder was involved with the President's controversial decision to pardon fugitive Democratic Party contributor Marc Rich. Holder was also involved in Clinton’s other questionable decision to reduce the sentences of several members of the Boricua Popular Army which was then labeled by the FBI as a terrorist organization. Recently he refused to prosecute the New Black Panther organization who clearly violated federal law by intimidating voters at a Philadelphia voting location while in uniform with clubs in their hands in front of the entrance. Holder appears to take marching orders directly from the far left and from the ACLU.
Timothy Geithner..This is Obama's Secretary of the Treasury. Geithner failed to pay self employment taxes when he worked for the International Monetary Fund from 2001 to 2004. This failure to pay taxes appears to have been purposeful since the IMF provides employees with a manual and several documents reminding them of their responsibility. This person is now responsible for the IRS.
Jeffrey Immelt...This is the Chairman / CEO of General Electric Company who drove a successful company to the brink of failure. Under Immelt GE has been suspected to have sold goods to Iran in violation of federal law. Iran has essentially been an enemy of the United States and has supplied arms and other military support that killed American soldiers in Iraq and elsewhere. Suddenly the company has appeared to improve its financial condition somewhat due to a close and highly questionable relationship with Obama. During the presidential campaign, Immelt used his media divisions, part of GE Corporation, as "marketing arms" in support of Obama. This includes NBC, CNBC, and MSNBC. The coverage was so overwhelmingly biased that there was little doubt about the close association. Since elected the Immelt media sources have become much like a state run media. Obama has appointed Immelt as a financial adviser and GE now stands to make billions of dollars on "cap and trade" legislation. Not only is GE the largest wind turbine generator maker, they are going to profit heavily from the “cap and trade” credits as possibly the sole secondary market trader of these credits. Immelt has now been appointed by Obama as a Director of the New York Federal Reserve. Nowhere in the history of the United Sates has a major media source been controlled by the White House coupled with such an overt questionable relationship where an industry has been able to suddenly gain financial advantage directly through the White House.
It goes on and on, above is just a sampling of some of the more significant and questionable Obama relationships, past and current. In addition to those people mentioned above there is a question of Obama's long association with ACORN. This has been recognized as a radical organization that sponsored wide spread voter fraud, has bullied and intimidated banks, businesses, and individuals, and been accused of a variety of illegal activities. One or two of these relationships might be explained off. But a very large number, a multitude of these relationships / associations, bring about a question of character. Obama's character as President of the United States.

Age Discrimination Complaint Filed on Healthcare
Director, U.S. Department of Health and Human Services September 3, 2009
Office for Civil Rights
Washington, DC 20201
Subject: Complaint in Violation of The Age Discrimination Act of 1975
Dear Director:
This is a serious, not a frivolous complaint, concerning the impending and certain violation based upon age of (House Bill) H.R.3200 - America's Affordable Health Choices Act of 2009 and the Senate Bill, The Affordable Health Choices Act. It is a fact that the United States does not have the doctor / medical services to provide healthcare for an additional 50 million people. The net result of these legislations will certainly lead to rationing. Already proposed is that the necessary rationing will exclude Americans based upon age for certain, necessary health services, treatment and care. This has been clearly stated by both those who have been involved with formulating these Bills and by those advising. This is a clear discrimination based upon age.
This complaint is being filed for myself, at 70 years of age, and for the 60 million Americans today 55 and older, and for the expected 107.6 million Americans (31 percent of the population) expected in 2030. This amounts to no less than massive age discrimination.
As you know The Age Discrimination Act of 1975 is a national law that prohibits discrimination on the basis of age in programs or activities receiving federal financial assistance, which will certainly be the case with the aforementioned House and Senate Healthcare Bills.
In addition to a violation of The Age Discrimination Act of 1975, these healthcare Bills would also be a violation of both the Fifth and Fourteenth Amendments of the United States Constitution that provide protection against discrimination by federal and state governments. The 5th Amendment prohibits the federal government from depriving individuals of "life, liberty, or property" and for equal protection under the law. By depriving senior citizens the necessary care for life saving medical treatment and, for not providing equal protection, this becomes a clear violation of this Amendment. In addition The Fourteenth Amendment prohibits states from violating an individual's rights and equal protection. The proposed federally mandated healthcare bills would necessarily transcend to the state level through implementation.
This is a serious complaint involving massive and continuing discrimination in the United States in direct violation to The Age Discrimination Act of 1975; the Fifth and Fourteenth Amendments to the Constitution of the United States.
On behalf of myself and the 60 million Americans 55 years and older I request that you expeditiously address this serious complaint. I will most anxiously await your reply.
