14. The first feminist, pro-environmental protection president since Carter. America is fortunate.

The low-information voters that go after Obama on these issues, haven't paid the attention to them as he has. They only get riled up when the media tells them.

I once posted every week since 2009 the news stories of Obama's initiatives on environmental protection. His strategy was to mitigate and disempower the energy companies that forced our nation to war for resources while attacking the poor in this country with media. Obama has always promoted alternative energy, while having to fend off the Koches and Nordquists at the same time.

I don't have time to collect those first eighteen months of weekly initiatives that have materially changed the real world, to show the world of the internet what he was doing. We could prove what he's done, but those who believe the M$M lies and distortions won't believe the reality, anyway.

I am so glad to see this beautiful video that shows Obama is still looking to big picture, for years to come. He has been making the steps all along, but since the rise of the baggers of both sides in the media, it will not be heard. They won't let the truth of what their corporate masters are doing to the planet be heard, either.

Coincidence? Bridges sales now taking place on the right and the left. Don't buy into it if you really want something better.

Let's give him what he needs to make this happen. He has the intellect, emotional constitution and strength to see this vision through. Those who care, will work with him to make this possible. They should, it's about them and their children and the planet now.

Stop the visceral hate and venom and get with doing the work the Founders set upon our shoulders. Get involved, stay involved, don't listen to the lie of the day and surrender the world to the Randians.



I'm wondering how to get that into my signature line. Most of my posts finish with that icon.

Thanks, Cha, and all the BOG.


P. S. This is a post replying to an OP in the BOG. Don't mess with the best.
