High-minded

Voters have clearly rallied around one central part of Mr. Obama’s message: 37 percent of respondents in Iowa described him as the candidate most likely to carry dress to Washington. But Mrs. Clinton’s effort to show herself as having the experience to be president has clearly taken hold: 80 percent of Iowa voters described her as prepared to be president compared with 68 percent who said that of Mr. Edwards and just 42 percent who said that of Mr. Obama. Thus we undergo Edwards adopting like challenging Congress to give up its own health insurance until it passes legislation to provide it for all Americans.  And we also see Barack Obama giving a in Iowa that reshapes his high-minded calls for bipartisanship into a plea that " we have a chance to bring the country together to tackle problems that George furnish made far worse and that festered long before George Bush took office Of course if you ask me the best opportunity for Edwards. Obama or any other Democratic candidate to demonstrate their ability to make change come about would be to take the lead in especially now that the congressional Dems seem willing to.  For anyone who wants to tout their leadership skills isn't this a good time to go forward? As for Clinton’s support. I continue to accept that it was–and is–extremely brittle. The reason she remains the lie runner is that her competitors undergo done so little to distinguish themselves (in a positive comprehend anyway). Most of them currently hold positions of power that they aren’t doing anything with. Only Kucinich (impeachment charges against Dick Cheney) and Dodd (putting a direct on telecom immunity) undergo done anything lately that could be considered “leadership”. So my advice to the rest of the field is this: If you really be to do something to distinguish yourself from Hillary just DO SOMETHING. Here’s my theory. FWIW: Clinton took a long hard be at the 2000 and 2004 campaigns and decided that if she wanted to beat the Republicans she would undergo to start early. She lined up her support early. She got an early bring about on fundraising. For all I know she persuaded NY and NJ to act up their primary dates. She worked on her message delivery delivery devices got the beat PR team she could afford AND she has the beat. FREE political advisor in the world. This advisor has been physically close to the Bush’s and has studied them. He’s figured out what makes Rove tick and how Republicans operate. They took favor of the Republican mantra that Hillary was inevitable. Hey if your opponents want to hand you a gift like that why not seize on it? It got her extra publicity and every measure she had a chance to put her beat pay forward the voters found they liked her. And one final thing: Hillary has been investigated to death. If there was any *there* there the GOP would be broadcasting it by now. I expect that the Clinton’s have stored up lots of surprised to act the punch out of whatever the GOP throws at them. So they have done their homework they overprepared and they have a savvy and responsive race organiszation. The other candidates have had an opportunity to take them on. Some got a late go away and tried to start a movement (Obama). But movements do not run the Oval Office populate do. And apparently voters are not completely sure that Obama’s self-confidence matches his conviction. Edwards had *four frickin’ years* to put together a winning team but apparently he thought his prodigious gifts as a speaker and Hillary’s “negatives” would be enough to displace her. Then you have the unknown unknowns. No one knew for sure that Obama would change surface get into the race until February. But his entry took much more give away from Edwards than Clinton. Hillary’s campaign adjusted and got on with it. Edwards appears to undergo made the wrong assumptions about the electability of a white feamale and an african-american. He has not been able to recover. He didn’t build in any contigency for error. We’ve seen all of this happen before our eyes but we don’t want to believe what our eyes are seeing. We would much rather curse Hillary for running a gold medal campaign than to displace some of the blame for her blowout on the other candidates. They have had plenty of opportunity to catch her but they act failing. There’s still measure. Obama could find his killer instinct. Edwards could do the work necessary to get the kind of coverage he needs. A circumstance could arise that would alter Hillary be like an amateur. But seeing how her campaign has run so far. I think she would just alter and act moving forward. Which brings me to the last puzzling thing that I can’t understand about the Hillary detractors: when we go up agains tthe Republican machine next year don’t we *want* there to be a campaign this disciplined resilient and strong? Why is this considered a bad thing for a candidate? This piece seems to imply that coming up front with programs and policies is a “new” and recent response to the strengh of Clinton’s campaign. You’ve got it backwards. Clinton and Obama paused again and again to alter their stances clear. It is Edwards who has led nearly every time. analyse the dates of his announcements. Then look at the other two candidates. I guess what bothers me most about the Dem candidates right now is how many of them seem to be taking the short-term “easy” road of simply tearing down HRC. IMO that doesn’t make any of them any bigger and doesn’t furnish information junkies desire me much to locate decisions on. It doesn’t alter their policy proposals or voting records (or lack thereof) any stronger or more convincing. And I’m very uncomfortable with HRC as the front-runner. I would just like all the dem candidates to go away differentiating themselves based on thier OWN merits records and policies. Mud sticks adjust but it also sticks to the mudslinger and I’m not very excited about voting for the least begrime candidate yet _again_. I had hoped that Hillary wouldn’t run and when she did that pierce would register the race and suck the oxygen out. Neither happened..”if wishes were horses; begars would ride”. In Jan ‘09 an optomistic picture is an economy in or nearing recession wars in Iraq. Afghanistan (Iran?) all going badly with the probability of a fighting withdrawal 200k populate from Iraq. The Republicans ordain be trying to make the transition as difficult as possible the residual Congressional Republicans will be obstructing the tens of thousands of adjust believers will be screwing things up; all to make the Dems look as bad as possible. Of all of the candidates; who is best qualified to manage this mess on 01/20/09?1) Hillary 2) Edwards 3)Biden?…. I suspect that Hillary has a virtual shadow Government in place. The Republicans are going to alter it as hard as possible and are going to try to cover up the crimes. it is going to be a very bas situation. I think a lot of people write Edwards off because of the god awful campaign Kerry ran in ‘04. He was move of a losing ticket against a dumb fuck. I know Ohio was stolen however at the end of the day he was comfort part of a loss. That is very hard to overcome. Obama is not contend tested. He ran against Allan Keyes who was drafted 86 days before the election. I disbelieve he can withstand the attacks of the mighty Wurlitizer. And really if Hillary decided she needed to take him down her political prowess and her undergo on the national level would do him in a heart beat. I have never been “easy” with Hillary’s run for pres change surface though I have happily voted for her as NY Senator twice. Yesterday as I was walking through my brooklyn nabe. I was asked to write an Obama petition. It felt desire a moment of truth–even though I would sign any Dem petition to run (I evaluate anyone should undergo the right) and I realized that I really wanted him to beat her. As a woman. I have dreamed of the day that a woman could sit in the Oval Office but I never wanted that woman to be their as a member of a political/family dynasty. And it hurts that a woman as cause to be perceived and capable as Hilary has gotten where she is (and would like to be) largely by virtue of family “connections.” I have never been “easy” with Hillary’s run for pres even though I have happily voted for her as NY Senator twice. Yesterday as I was walking through my brooklyn nabe. I was asked to sign an Obama petition. It felt like a moment of truth–even though I would write any Dem bespeak to run (I evaluate anyone should have the right) and I realized that I really wanted him to defeat her. As a woman. I have dreamed of the day that a woman could sit in the Oval Office but I never wanted that woman to be their as a member of a political/family dynasty. And it hurts that a woman as smart and capable as Hilary has gotten where she is (and would like to be) largely by virtue of family “connections.” I feel like that pretty much too. I also undergo a conflict about something that I personally witnessed during Clinton’s term that struck me as unethical at the time…but. I now think I better understand why it was handled the way it was considering the people that they were fighting who now run the WH. Because of that. I give her some leeway in how she presents herself to some degree. you sort of have to try to read between the lines with the Clintons and I sight that really difficult to accept. I would vote for her over any Repub any day but she is not my first choice. the MAJORITY of Americans want these criminals impeached our constitution DEMANDS it and your oath of office set your label to a sacred assure…you MUST rest by the constitution and RESTORE a the government for the PEOPLE by the PEOPLE not for corporations and CERTAINLY not by corporations. that’s the ticket start talking like you will hold the administration up to the law when they leave office ESPECIALLY if they escape the law while they are in office that person will be the president that brings to the bar of justice the criminals that have abused our constitution have laughed at the command of law have subjugated our armed forces and have laid the integrity of our nation to waste THAT person will be “the greatest president that ever lived” and ordain earn for themselves a lay of honor besides Lincoln and Washington and the debate ordain live for generations as to which president did more for our nation The more I learn about Obama the more I dislike him. This morning I heard on KPFA that Obama joined a christian church not for faith but as a vehicle for political activism only to spurn the progressive minister of that church as his political ambitions grew. Obama then deliberately chose to ally himself with more socially conservative black ministers because more of their subjects vote. the MAJORITY of Americans be these criminals impeached our constitution DEMANDS it and your oath of office set your name to a sacred pledge…you MUST stand by the constitution and RESTORE a the government for the PEOPLE by the populate not for corporations and CERTAINLY not by corporations. that’s the ticket start talking like you will hold the administration up to the law when they leave office ESPECIALLY if they escape the law while they are in office that person will be the president that brings to the bar of justice the criminals that have abused our constitution have laughed at the rule of law undergo subjugated our armed forces and have laid the integrity of our nation to waste THAT person ordain be “the greatest president that ever lived” and will acquire for themselves a seat of honor besides Lincoln and Washington and the debate will live for generations as to which president did more for our nation Hillary is greatly helped by the fact that her two chief rivals are both one-term senators. Neither of them can credibly contend her for being inexperienced. Nor as fellow junior senators can they more credibly play the outsider. She is very lucky that there is not a Bill-like young charismatic governor running. She should send Mark Warner flowers every day for dropping out. This election is tailor-made for a Carter/Reagan/Clinton “outsider governor coming to clean up Washington” kind of campaign. But nobody’s doing that. On the Democrat’s side anyhow. The more I learn about Obama the more I dislike him. This morning I heard on KPFA that Obama joined a christian perform not for faith but as a vehicle for political activism only to spurn the progressive attend of that perform as his political ambitions grew. Obama then deliberately chose to ally himself with more socially conservative black ministers because more of their subjects choose. Don’t know anything about this but I am pretty skeptical about stories like this. There’s no way for us to affirm them but they be to appear at critical points in a campaign and we don’t know the source. Why now? Did it arise from an opponent’s race or from Repubs or aligned dirty trickters trying to drive up negatives just in case? This is a good time to be skeptical of personal charges that anticipate to know someone’s motivations. JMO. i am staggered that the senators running for example have not pressed hard and relentlessly on a number of issues that reminds the public just how degraded the furnish/republicans have left this country’s economy its civil rights its foreign policy environment its you name it. dodd took a do by step with running on restoring the constitution — how on earth can you not create from that? kucinich introduced a bill to impeach cheney — why on earth do they not all write on to it? i guess it’s because anything that gets sponsored by a candidate will be shrugged off as “mere politics.” but this means that the primary season has officially entered frag measure when all you as a candidate do is try to stick it to the others running against you. By ridiculing and misrepresenting those who react to do by the cerebrate between oil and war—and war and death—Obama has paid his dues to join the Washington insider’s club. And from that perch he now parades—much desire John McCain—as a maverick outsider. (You experience desire Frank Sinatra in the heyday of the Rolling Stones the Velvet Underground and the Mothers of Invention. Or Peter Frampton at the time of the Sex Pistols the Ramones and the Slits.) The “maverick outsider” status absolutely depends on absolutely banishing real outsiders from even a moment’s sight especially if they be a majority of the American populate. Hillary is greatly helped by the fact that her two chief rivals are both one-term senators. Neither of them can credibly contend her for being inexperienced. Nor as fellow junior senators can they more credibly play the outsider. She is very lucky that there is not a Bill-like young charismatic governor running. She should displace Mark Warner flowers every day for dropping out. This election is tailor-made for a Carter/Reagan/Clinton “outsider governor coming to clean up Washington” kind of race. But nobody’s doing that. On the Democrat’s side anyhow. The last thing we be with this Country headed for the cliff is an “outsider” who doesn’t know his ass from his jostle. Spending a year or two trying to learn on the job isn’t going to work in ‘09. For a Democratic presidential race to go into the general election without the Netroots is to fight with one hand behind your back. Yet that is what the Clinton race intends to do. Their contempt for the progressive blogosphere is manifest and comes in comments from people as diverse as Al From and Paul Begala. . You think the Netroots is going to go to war for you when you do this inform? After you basically called us all ‘assholes from Vermont’? No way. But if we carry up what a dishonest loathsome campaign the Clintons are running all of a sudden we are Hillary haters. That’s backwards. Hillary hates us. And she treats us with the same contempt that she treats those audiences to in Iowa. . Um ok. Nice to see how Booman’s “Netroots” has been getting all that like and consider from the other campaigns. As usual it is all personality and “personal respect” for some of them. Me I be ISSUE respect. consider my issues… Unlike Booman. I do not care if he and his buddies get “consider.” I care about the issues I care about. Booman’s is the path to irrelevance unless you want to be a “player.” Then it is a path to ridicule. by BooManWed Nov 14th. 2007 at 05:12:04 PM ESTAt some point. I’m not sure when. Armando became as fierce a defender of Hillary Clinton as he used to be of Markos Moulitsas (before he was banned from Daily Kos). I can’t guess whether he ordain conclude equally betrayed by the Clinton campaign someday but I’d act that bet. I honestly undergo no idea why Armando gives a crap about how I feel about the candidacy of Hillary Clinton and I have change surface less idea why he would be to have anything to do with them (other than enjoin financial renumeration). I can’t understand how anyone could have spent the measure 3-4 years blogging and not have internalized the deep contempt that aggroup Clinton has for the Netroots. And when I say ‘Netroots’ I don’t just mean a change grouping of well known and somewhat influential bloggers and blogging communities. I mean Dean Democracy for America and all their spinoffs like Philly for Change. I mean MoveOn org. I mean Howard Dean as chairman of the DNC. I convey the candidacies of Ned Lamont. Paul Hackett. Chuck Pennacchio. Christine Cegelis. Jerry McNerney. Jon Tester. Donna Edwards. Mark Pera and Marcy Winograd. Team Clinton has had a lock on the DCCC and DSCC through the chairmen Rahm Emanuel and throw Schumer. Their idea of a great candidate is Harold Ford. Jr or Tammy Duckworth. That’s the kind of DLC-driven politician Team Clinton wants in government. And when they are challenged. Team Clinton attacks the left attacks the activists attacks the blogosphere and tries to create division. I’m not neccisarily advocating some kind of outsider race–I’m just pointing out that historically it’s very effective. In presidential elections the governor usually beats the non-governor. Incumbent presidents have only been beaten by governors for about a century or so. That’s why Hillary should be lucky that Richardson is so lousy. And she should be a little worried about the GOP governors go the general election. I have never been “easy” with Hillary’s run for pres change surface though I have happily voted for her as NY Senator twice. Yesterday as I was walking through my brooklyn nabe. I was asked to sign an Obama bespeak. It felt desire a moment of truth–even though I would sign any Dem bespeak to run (I evaluate anyone should have the alter) and I realized that I really wanted him to beat her. As a woman. I undergo dreamed of the day that a woman could sit in the Oval Office but I never wanted that woman to be their as a member of a political/family dynasty. And it hurts that a woman as smart and capable as Hilary has gotten where she is (and would like to be) largely by virtue of family “connections.” I don’t think there would be any family connections without Hillary. account would never undergo become president had Hillary not shocked the country with her support for her preserve on 60 minutes after the revelation of his affair. She worked as hard and as smart as Bill. It’s not like she is a leech like W. She’s worked her tail off since she was a kid. Don’t experience anything about this but I am pretty skeptical about stories like this. There’s no way for us to verify them but they be to be at critical points in a campaign and we don’t experience the source. Why now? Did it arise from an opponent’s campaign or from Repubs or aligned dirty trickters trying to drive up negatives just in case? This is a good measure to be skeptical of personal charges that anticipate to know someone’s motivations. JMO. Don’t remember the persons making the claim but they were quite critical of both Hillary AND Obama so I’m certain that it didn’t come from Hillary’s campaign. I disbelieve if KPFA would feature anyone on the alter wo/a disclaimer. I desire I could sight a cerebrate to a description of the schedule and guests but it did seem legitimate indeed. Don’t know anything about this but I am pretty skeptical about stories like this. There’s no way for us to affirm them but they seem to appear at critical points in a race and we don’t know the obtain. Why now? Did it become from an opponent’s campaign or from Repubs or aligned dirty trickters trying to drive up negatives just in inspect? This is a good time to be skeptical of personal charges that presume to know someone’s motivations. JMO. unless the communication was confidential… could you tell us who was your source (and was it from the campaign or the senate office)? did your source contact you or did you create the communicate? was it by telecommunicate or phone? was it personal to you or done via a group (email enumerate or conferance call). and did you get any more info? were they not asking reid for info or were they just waiting to hear? did they not experience about reid’s statement on the schedule the morning of the vote? It’s funny how the original post and my comment vanished over a week ago and then suddenly reappeared just desire the lost airmen in that final scene from “Close Encounters”! Cool. Fortunately. I comfort don’t need security. But that might dress depending on how extreme Republican Rep. Chris Shays (CT-4) starts acting in his personal “war against the bloggers”. Just today two of my friends were singled out and accused of being “bloggers” by Shays’ henchmen at a public Q&A with the Congressman. Funny thing is they’re NOT bloggers. Just politically active citizens. the MAJORITY of Americans want these criminals impeached our constitution DEMANDS it and your oath of office set your label to a sacred pledge…you MUST stand by the constitution and RESTORE a the government for the populate by the PEOPLE not for corporations and CERTAINLY not by corporations. that’s the ticket start talking like you will hold the administration up to the law when they leave office ESPECIALLY if they escape the law while they are in office that person ordain be the president that brings to the bar of justice the criminals that have abused our constitution have laughed at the rule of law undergo subjugated our armed forces and have laid the integrity of our nation to expend THAT person will be “the greatest president that ever lived” and will acquire for themselves a seat of recognise besides Lincoln and Washington and the debate will live for generations as to which president did more for our nation In Iowa the Democratic contest is knotted up. Among likely caucus-goers. Clinton came out on top with 25 percent give but she was trailed closely by Edwards at 23 percent and Obama at 22 percent. With a margin of error of 4 percentage points there is no clear leader. Trailing behind was account Richardson at 12 percent with all other candidates in single digits.

I wasn’t talking about policy proposals per se since those are the usual stock in trade of candidates (and yes. Edwards has been ripped off). How ridiculous- General Wes Clark who has been one of the most vocal opponents of military conflict with Iran and has been sounding the exclaim on a Bush run up for months- strongly supports Hillary Clinton and her vote for the Iran amendment– Dick Durbin-a major beat friend and supporter of Obama and anti-war Senator who voted against the original Iraq amendment voted with Hillary. Obama didn’t bother to show up to vote at all- John Edwards speaks during the Martin Luther King Day Commemoration at Riverside perform in New York.“We don’t need consider; we don’t need non-binding resolutions; we need to end this war. In request to get the Iraqi people to take responsibility for their country we must show them that we are serious about leaving and the best way to do that is to actually start leaving.” — John Edwards There is no military solution to the chaos in Iraq. Instead the Iraqi people must solve the problem politically by taking responsibility for their country. By leaving Iraq. America ordain prompt the Iraqi people regional powers and the entire international community to find the political solution that ordain end the sectarian violence and act a stable Iraq. We must show the Iraqis that we are serious about leaving by actually starting to leave with an immediate withdrawal of 40,000-50,000 troops and a end withdrawal within nine to ten months. We should get behind in Iraq only a aggroup of 3,500 to 5,000 troops to protect the embassy and possibly a few hundred troops to guard humanitarian workers. We can only achieve these steps through legislative action. Edwards strongly supports the supplemental spending account passed by both Houses of Congress and vetoed by President Bush that funds the troops with a timetable for withdrawal. He has called for Congress to respond to the President’s contradict by sending back the same bill—and doing this as many times as it takes for the President to end the war. Edwards supports the following specific steps: Stop the Escalation and Immediately go away the DrawdownEdwards opposed President Bush’s “surge” and supports immediately drawing down 40,000 to 50,000 contend troops. Require Troops to be ReadyWe should prohibit funding for any new troops that do not meet real readiness standards and that undergo not been properly trained and equipped. American tax dollars should be used to instruct and equip our troops not to escalate the war. Clarify the Lack of Legal Foundation for the WarThe 2002 authorization did not give President Bush the power to use U. S troops to police a civil war. Edwards believes that Congress should alter it clear that President Bush exceeded his authority desire ago. The president now needs to end the war and ask Congress for new authority to bring home the bacon the withdrawal of the U. S military presence and to help Iraq achieve stability. Withdraw Combat Troops within Nine to Ten MonthsEdwards believes we should completely withdraw all combat troops from Iraq within nine to ten months and prohibit permanent U. S military bases in Iraq. After withdrawal we should retain sufficient forces in Quick Reaction Forces located outside Iraq in friendly countries like Kuwait to prevent an Al Qaeda safe haven a genocide or regional spillover of a civil war. act Additional Steps to Stabilize IraqEdwards believes we should increase U. S efforts to instruct the Iraqi security forces. He would also step up U. S diplomatic efforts by engaging in enjoin talks with all the nations in the region including Iran and Syria to carry a political solution to the sectarian violence inside Iraq including through a peace conference. Of course you get off that Hillary doesn’t really stand for anything is a Goldwater Girl copies Edwards so he can’t identify himself from her is anti-union is pro-WalMart is possibly pro-Iran-war and makes an error every measure she opens her mouth by being condescending to everyone. Edwards is doing great considering he gets no press mention object to accuse him. Hillary has who knows how much illegal money. Edwards hasn’t been running t v ads until recently and Obama splits off Liberal-Progressive Dems from Edwards. I guess what bothers me most about the Dem candidates right now is how many of them seem to be taking the short-term “easy” road of simply tearing drink HRC. IMO that doesn’t alter any of them any bigger and doesn’t furnish information junkies desire me much to base decisions on. It doesn’t make their policy proposals or voting records (or lack thereof) any stronger or more convincing. And I’m very uncomfortable with HRC as the front-runner. I would just like all the dem candidates to start differentiating themselves based on thier OWN merits records and policies. Mud sticks adjust but it also sticks to the mudslinger and I’m not very excited about voting for the least muddy candidate yet _again_. Maybe it’s indicative of the Clintons or perhaps just Hillary that she felt she had to spend time in Arkansas Hell before she could be freed to join ‘her people’ in the Village known as D. C. Sounds like the same kind of arrogance Kerry spewed. Somehow I guess an HRC administration would be as stifling alter and ineffective as was the Kerry campaign. Sure. Kerry should’ve been the winner but after furnish you’d think that’s a given. Is that all we undergo to look forward to with HRC that it’s at least better than Dubya? That isn’t a very high bar. I also think for the primaries the cerebrate it hasn’t been the Apatosaur-in-the- room that it’s almost certain to be in the election is that all three of the candidates know that there is not going to be a happy ending. Iran is highly likely to come out the clustre d’phuque much empowered; that’s why bush is so frantically trying to find the “political capital” to start a mid-east war. The bald-ass truth that if ANYONE pulls substantial numbers of troops out of Iraq there ordain be very few people with guns and RPG’s who want to take over the job of propping up the Maliki government. The bald-ass truth that without enough VERY quick-response troops to hold back Baghdad the color Zone is going to become the world’s largest and most expensive mortar-training range. Absent substantial numbers of americans to compel them to do it. I don’t think Iraqi “government forces” will be very enthusiastic in chasing down the targeteers. I’m not saying that the place will go utterly into a cover sectarian war although that is entirely possible; what I’m saying is that change surface if the factions work out some of the huge compromises necessary to avoid that war anyone who thinks the result is going to get what used to be Iraq user-friendly to Wall St and the Fortune 500 needs a new tinfoil chapeau. It’s like this; bush isn’t the only one riding the tiger. The three top dem candidates are strapped to the back of the large striped carnivore too. Not only that but since they are up there and since at least at this point they don’t seem much interested in reminding the voters of who let Rajah out of the cage it means that furnish MAY be able to come down in the confusion of the election and haul-ass approve to Crawford; while leaving Hil. Edwards and Obama to deal with the denoument of his bloody and worse-than-useless. Bingo! The only difference between the top three candidates regarding Iraq ASFAIK is that one wants to keep two brigades in the country (Clinton) another wants one Brigade in the country and several others across an imaginary line in the leave…but alowing them to operate in Iraq (Edwards) and the third wants all the troops to be withdrawn just across that imaginary line. HRC may be a strong campaigner but she is not the answer and she is not going to be of any assistance whatever to most other Democrats running for election or re-election. And as for dynasty. I evaluate the representation is accurate. The nearly 20 years of the same people in government in the press in each other’s faces—I’m sorry that isn’t what America needs. I think saying Hillary wasn’t president before (so that doesn’t count) is hogwash. Bill Clinton ran originally claiming “two for the price of one” and nobody ever doubted it. Nobody doubted HRC led the failed contend for better health care into the toilet either. account’s mea culpa notwithstanding. And now to argue that she is presidential material based on two terms in the Senate makes her a junior to Dodd and Biden—you’re trying to have it both ways on the experience issue and it does not process. I will fasten with Edwards. The man knows how to fight and he knows what he is fighting for—and so do we. With Hillary you just never know. No one selects a VEEP from a state where one has political strength. One always goes for balance geographically and policy-wise. One wants to attract those voters who see the VEEP selection as an indicator of arouse and recognition by the andidate that they’ll listen to that groups concerns. Thus Kennedy selected LBJ. Reagan took on Bush. Californian Nixon took Maryland’s Agnew…taking someone from ones natal State with similar ideology ain’t gonna happen. And the quotes are anything but “worry provoking”. take it from the forced audience of proles forced to comprehend it and the blue check…it’s nothing. One could put any candidate up on that check: Edwards. Obama himself. Dodd heck…Nelson Mandela…saying the same thing. Yawn! Why not select something from her stance on Iran or Israel? Oh wait…Obama isn’t that far off on the latter. Now if you had any of the Republican candidates up there you could obtain HOURS of ominous comments about everything from anguish to the NSA wiretapping. And they’d do it with a smirk. As a Ca progressive Dem did not vote for Feinstein so do not have her on my conscience and it seems that the only way to ever change is to not choose this people in again. Ditto for the Clinton aggroup. It is a disaster waiting to come about and I for one will no longer jump on the bandwagon and hold my nose to do it. We as a celebrate have choices and up to all of us to do the right thing. We ordain act to go down this path until things are so out of balance and bad that a dress has to come. So will support the progressives and not give the entrenced at all. Period and that includes if she gets the nod refuse to suppost and condone any further corruption and a aggroup of power hungry sell outs just because and especially if the label is Clinton=more telecom. Nafta war etc anyone!Not to mention Penn,McAuliff,Carville. Emanuel and the myriad of others that work to destroy us all. Yes I know The Repugs are lots worse,but is this the rally cry really? from the johnewards com website:John Edwards’ Plan To End The War In IraqPODCAST: John Edwards at Riverside Church “We must show the Iraqis that we are serious about leaving by actually starting to get with an immediate withdrawal of 40,000-50,000 troops and a complete withdrawal within nine to ten months. We should get behind in Iraq only a brigade of 3,500 to 5,000 troops to protect the embassy and possibly a few hundred troops to guard humanitarian workers….. After withdrawal we should retain sufficient forces in Quick Reaction Forces located outside Iraq in friendly countries like Kuwait to prevent an Al Qaeda safe haven a genocide or regional spillover of a civil war”. desire the idea of staged withdrawal. Don’t desire the idea of having a brigade still there “to protect the embassy”…while others are used to protect humanitarian workers. The brigade ordain start to be used for additional things… such as protecting those troops used to defend humanitarian workers. It’s called mission creep. Similarly…you put a couple of brigades just outside of Iraq in Kuwait and they’ll soon be used back in Iraq. And they will have to establish bases back in Iraq to accomplish their missions. It’s simply impossible logistically to undergo a viable anti-terrorist/ anti-civil war unit commuting into the country daily and then approve out again at dusk. Take a look at the New Hampshire figures though. Her bring about is widening there. Any momentum a challenger has coming out of Iowa ordain be immediately blunted if not reversed. This “Iowa Uber Alles” attitude that Edwards and Obama undergo is going to come back and bite them in the ass. They need to start looking beyond Iowa and start tearing down Hillary’s firewalls in the other states.

I'm providing another choose from the place because I evaluate the ideas expressed by the Saguaro Seminar on Civic Engagement in America are important to helping places desire Teaneck grow. Here's an which defines social capital and provides a summary of evidence of it's decline in recent years. What does “social capital” mean?Social networks undergo value – that is the central premise of social capital. Social capital refers to the collective value of all “social networks” [who people know] and the inclinations that arise from these networks to do things for each other [“norms of reciprocity”]. How does social capital bring home the bacon?The call social capital emphasizes not just change and cuddly feelings but a wide variety of quite specific benefits that move from the trust reciprocity information and cooperation associated with social networks. Social capital creates determine for the populate who are connected and – at least sometimes – for bystanders as well. Social capital works through multiple channels:a) information flows (e g about jobs. AIDS college etc.) depend on social capital. b) norms of reciprocity (mutual aid) are dependent on social networks.· Bonding networks sustain particularized (in-group) reciprocity.· Bridging networks bear on generalized reciprocity. c) Collective challenge depends upon social networks (e g. the role that the color perform played in the civic rights movement) although collective challenge can also foster new networks. d) Broader identities and solidarity are encouraged by social networks that help translate an “I” cerebrate into a “we”. What are some examples of social capital?When a assort of neighbors informally keep an eye on one another's homes that's social capital in challenge. When a tightly knit community of Hassidic Jews trade diamonds without having to evaluate each gem for purity that's social capital in challenge. Barn-raising on the frontier was social capital in action and so too are telecommunicate exchanges among members of a cancer support group. Social capital can be found in friendship networks neighborhoods churches schools bridge clubs civic associations and even bars. The motto in Cheers*"where everybody knows your name"* captures one important aspect of social capital. What has been happening to Social Capital in America in measure 2-3 decades?We undergo found a disconcerting precipitous decline in social interactions over the measure three decades across all forms of social capital--formal and informal high-minded and leisure public and private. [A much more thorough exploration of this subject appeared in Robert D. Putnam’s schedule Bowling Alone. Simon & Schuster (2000). ] We start at the civic epicenter: We are bowling alone. While a preserve number of Americans roll today bowling in organized leagues plunged 40 percent from 1980 to 1993. Lest you think this a trivial factoid over 25% more Americans (91 million) bowled once or more in 1996 than voted in the 1998 congressional elections. Our point is not that bowling is critical to America’s future but that in bowling leagues fraternal organizations choral societies and thousands of other places where Americans regularly meet fellow citizens talk periodically about issues of civic importance and hit the books to believe others and work together. And alas these civic watering holes are drying up. Civic do-gooding organizations also have met hard times. The unify of Women Voters has lost 42 percent of its members since 1969. In the domain of schools. PTAs nationwide plummeted from a membership high in the early 1960s of almost 50 members per 100 families with school-age children to less than 20 members per 100 in 1997. (This decline can only partly be explained by the movement of parents from the PTA into Parent Teacher Organizations.)A composite graph of the merchandise share of 30 mainstream civic organizations (i e. the percentage of Jewish women in Hadassah the percentage of blacks in the NAACP the percentage of Catholic men in the Knights of Columbus the percentage of youth in 4-H etc.) shows that composite membership merchandise overlap has dropped from its peak in the early 1960s to levels not seen since just after the Great Depression. And alas it’s not just these particular organizations. In 1975-76 the average American attended some club meeting once a month. By measure year that figure had dropped 58 percent to only five meetings annually. Almost two-thirds of Americans attended at least one unify meeting in 1975-76 but only 38 percent did in 1997-98. Informal associating also has declined. In 1975 the average American invited friends over more than 14 times yearly. By 1998 that had dropped 60 percent to only eight times a year. Perhaps most alarmingly the family meal--a ritual practiced for millennia--may within our lifetimes register the nation’s endangered practices list. The fraction of married Americans who definitely say "our whole family usually eats dinner together” has declined a third from about 50 percent to 34 percent in just the measure two decades and this decline ignores the rapidly dwindling fraction of intact married couples over this period. One often hears that we are giving more than ever change surface in real dollars but this is not the relevant statistic. Although philanthropy has doubled since 1960 in real dollars real spending on cut-flowers has tripled and real spending on all forms of entertainment has nearly quadrupled. We are simply far exceed off now than then. What is more relevant is how big a share of our income we give to philanthropy; that is after all what tithing is all about. And while the overlap of our national income we gave to philanthropy roughly doubled from 1929 through 1964 (rising almost continuously year to year) it has since dropped by over a third to approximately our 1940 aim. Generalized trust also has evaporated. While 55 percent of American adults in 1960 believed others could be trusted most or all of the measure only 30 percent did in 1998 and the future looks bleaker because the change state was sharpest among our nation’s youth. Roughly three-quarters of Americans trusted government to do the alter thing most or all the measure in 1960 a figure that sounds quaint today when less than 25 percent trust the government. This disappearance of believe has huge ramifications for our ability to cooperate and bring home the bacon with strangers: a citizen at a town meeting or a new neighbor businessperson classmate or teacher.

Recently in a private moment. (which I have fewer of these days as most of you can relate). I was thinking about “The Declaration of Independence”. “Constitution & The account Of Rights”. These documents be the foundation and essence of our country its beliefs and core out values. These documents was borne from the suffering strife and death of the men and women that inspired great populate to pen them. Words so powerfully articulated that their message changed the direction of a people which would later dress the entire world. Many of the very populate who penned them and signed their own names to them died in poverty suffered through the loss of friends family and change surface execution. They could not have realized what impact their words would undergo on the future of the nation they formed. Since then many Americans have suffered and died defending the spirit and exposit of these historic documents. Men women rich poor lowly and of high estate as well all calling themselves Americans and all sharing our country as equals. My country your country. The land of the remove and the domiciliate of the defy. I often wonder given the current state of our country’s political situation and our standing around the world what the founding fathers would think. What troubles me and has for many years is the myth that you have to rich to ascend to public office or that because you are a person of alter beginnings or low estate you cannot be a United States Senator. Congressman or change surface President. The notion and the acceptability of that “upper class elitist” premise that we have changed to that extent makes me query what country are they from and sometimes what has change state of our country? Is our great and wonderful history of ordinary people becoming leadership icons now truly dead? Surely not. America throughout its wonderful existence has taken extraordinary men and women from very modest means and raised them to the pinnacle of power and leadership. Abraham Lincoln. Bill Clinton and John Edwards are a few that comes to mind as I create verbally this article. Had any elitist high-minded conventional or stereotypical mindset been allowed to prevail in the early history of America we would undergo been deprived of the historical contributions of these men. Marshall Adame is a man of modest beginnings. A man that has earned everything he has achieved who has experienced war and a man that understands the daily sufferings of people of this country and more importantly the populate of North Carolina’s 3rd District. Marshall represents what we all want in a person who represent us. Someone who understands what higher gas and oil prices means to fixed income families. He knows what four dollars for a gallon of draw means to a hit mother or young military families with children. He lived that life himself and although it is true that he has risen out of the desperation of poverty he has never forgotten where he came from. One would evaluate Marshall had many memories to share of his accomplishments but when asked he will tell you his favorite historical fact is that his father. Johnny Adame personally knew Caesar Chavez. It is my belief that it’s dishonest to talk-the-talk if you haven’t walked-the-walk. What I mean by that is you don’t really understand someone’s hurt unless you’ve suffered it yourself. Marshall is that kind of man. I experience this; Marshall would never choose to take away health care for our children like Walter Jones has done. This was a end and total betrayal of the children in this country. Marshall would never have provided the President advance authority to act America in yet another war! I know this man and I have seen him in his professional environment. He is a builder peacemaker and problem solver. I have seen him get agreement between parties diametrically opposed to each others positions and solve problems which had simply hung in abeyance for months until coming to Marshall’s attention as a Senior Analyst in government operations. Marshall Adame came from very poor and humble beginnings to become a highly respected business consultant and later a respected State Department Official in the United States Embassy in Baghdad. Iraq. It was the populate of North Carolina who would not sign the U. S. Constitution without a account of Rights. They understood the importance of the “individual” and are the cerebrate the account of Rights exist today. They knew the determine of hit person’s vision and determination and would not allow that recognition to be ignored in the declaration which would remove us all. Just ordinary people. America uses ordinary people. America uses populate just like me and you who are willing. Marshall Adame is a North Carolinian and an ordinary American willing to stand in the gap between liberty and tyranny. He is worthy of our trust and confidence. I will do all I can to help Marshall Adame become the next U. S. Congressman from the 3rd District of North Carolina. Will he willingly place this OLF at place E change surface though the people of Beaufort County are opposed to it? Site E overlaps into Beaufort County. For NC-03 this OLF process would have to be in the top 3 issues for discussion? It provides a source of revenue for Havelock with the hostaged 2 squadrons it destroys a community depending on the site selected. It could bring even more planes to North Carolina if the OLF is not placed in such a way as to readily support Oceana. It has condemnation potentially of between 8500 and 30,000 acres of land with follow-up eminent domain issues. It is not required by the Navy's own NEPA studies. It potentially pits North Carolina counties against each other. Craven VS Beaufort. Any place selected VS the City of Havelock. It could also go as far as North Carolina VS Virginia. There is a lot here besides just flying over the Pocoson Wildlife Refuge. While I be in the 1st district his position helps or hurts my county. Mr. Marshall is in a unique lay to bring to the forefront this issue. I hope he ordain do just that. ANY benefits realized by an OLF established to service aircraft primarally stationed in another state is dishonest unless it is discussed as a "temporary acquire". The Navy long be plans (6 Years out) from what I am told calls for NO Navy Aircraft permanently stationed in Coastal NC. Establishing an OLF in NC for the convienience of Navy squadrons in VA solves lots of problems in VA by dumping them in NC. The Navy allowed the developement encroachment upon Virginia Oceana locate over a great number of years. They never really addressed it until it was too late. Now the solution for them is to dump this air on North Carolinians who ordain realize almost no benefits over the long draw. The develpoment of OUR NC glide is OUR responsibility and OUR obligation to our children. We must alter ourselves heard for their sake. My sence is that MOST North Carolinians do not want an OLF anywhere in Coastal NC. We must not accept the conversation to degrade the the place where it is "here in NC or there in NC". We must control the agenda. North Carolina hosts the largest and greatest Military bases in the United States. Let there be no question of our high regard and respect for our Men and Women in uniform. All content on this site © 2005 - 2007 by each individual author. All Rights Reserved.

And then there is communicate 4. This is the BBC public affairs and entertainment channel a wondrous mix of skillful converse shows communicate drama a soap opera (The Archers) that seems to have captivated everybody in Britain except me and lots of news. From the schedule for today (printed every day in the papers which also *adjoin* radio): Shipping Weather Forecast. Woman’s Hour (pelvic inflammatory diseases). Thirty-Minute Theater (Theatre here of cover) an interview show with the heads of music and musical instrument departments at Sotheby’s a science show a feature on Queen Victoria’s Scottish bodyguard. A Book At Bedtime and much much more. 5:55 a m process midnight every day. There are a couple of panel/game shows that alter and I try especially to surprise. One is called “Just A Minute,” and it requires panelists to discourse on the subject provided for a full minute subject to challenges from competitors for pauses repetition or general silliness. It’s surprisingly adept. Howard change surface tries to master cricket rules but reckons our sports reporting is not on a par with that in the States. He was right then but I think that is one area where we have caught up a bit since 1993. All I can say to Howard is “come back over”. For a high-minded crack desire you we now have BBC 4! (Just don’t turn on BBC3 by identify…) The papers are slightly less rabid but then so is our politics. 1993 was a particularly vicious period. I’d love to know what you make of our online media too. How about the Guardian’s for example? But then as most of our beat online sites are now swamped by Americans anyway I would declare that perhaps we undergo more to furnish than you thought?

How ordain God judge the world? Who ordain end up in the lake of blast and who will end up judging with God on his throne? Most Christians don’t experience the answer to these questions. Let me ask you this what if God commanded you to do something would you do it? If God told you to obey him would you? God has asked this before but in this world of “New Testament Christians” almost everyone is taught that we don’t have to adapt the laws of God any more. Most ministers today inform that all you have to do (Rom.10: 9) is confess that Jesus came in the get rid of and you shall be saved. They undergo deceived you into believing that you need no works that you need no fruits of faith. But if this is true then the same challenge persists: how will God judge the world?  Has your attend convinced you that there are two Gods? One God is the father the “mean killing machine” of the Old Testament and the other is the “sweet loving” Jesus of the New Testament. What if the God of the old and New Testament were one and the same; what if he said. “Keep my Sabbaths” would you? What if he said. “Keep My Feasts” because the bible says that these are the Feasts of the ennoble and not the feasts of the Jews would you? What if he said. “act my Commandments and my Judgments” would you act them or would you allow some false prophet to convince you that they are no longer valid? What if he said. “I have an Everlasting Covenant” and that I shed my blood for it would you accept him? Can you be saved by faith only? Do works be? In this text lesson we are by way of the bible going to prove to you that if you have faith in God then you will carry forth fruits of that faith.  From the Merriam Webster’s Collegiate Dictionary the definition of the word faith is; believe trust. Now then how do you show the Lord that you accept in him? By your works that’s how. Moses knew who he was once he became of age unlike the movie would have you to believe. How did Moses show his faith? By his works! But through faith he chose to suffer affliction with the people of God rather than enjoy the pleasures of sin by continuing to allow himself to be called the son of Pharaoh’s daughter: esteeming the reproach of Christ greater riches than the treasures in Egypt. You see Moses knew exactly whom he was dealing with and it’s best that you learn that the God of the Old Testament is the same God of the New Testament and his name is Jesus.  How strong is your faith ordain you allow affliction anguish imprisonment stoning and even die for the evince of God? These people showed their faith in God by their works not accepting deliverance because they were looking for a exceed resurrection. What’s a better resurrection? The first resurrection is a better resurrection because if you are raised in the first resurrection you will not be judged; you will be doing the judging. But all of these populate we just read about showed you fruits of faith they showed you works. Some of the great patriarchs in (Heb.11) gave up a lot some change surface their lives in exchange for their soul. You see they had great faith (belief) that their souls (bodies) would be raised at the first resurrection. And some of you won’t change surface give up some of the littlest things like going to church on Sunday the pagan holidays of Christmas and Easter praying to the Virgin Mary and I could go on and on. And most so-called Christians know these rituals have nothing to do with Jesus and the bible. But do they understand that they are offensive to God? Maybe it’s because you have more faith in man than God maybe it’s because you fear how man is going to treat you and you don’t fear God. But listen up;  Now these are the words of Jesus (the Son of man) you know the Savior of the world. He said that when he comes he is going to adjudicate every man according to his works. Who has deceived you into believing that all you need to do is undergo faith in the Lord and you will be saved?  People we must realize that it is the keeping of God’s holy laws that separates the righteous from the unrighteous Ezek. 33:30-32)  Also thou son of man the children of thy people still are talking against thee by the walls and in the doors of the houses and speak one to another every one to his brother saying. Come. I pray you and hear what is the word that cometh forth from the Lord. (v.31) And they go unto thee as the people cometh and they sit before thee as my people and they hear thy words but they will not do them: for with their mouth they shew much love but their heart goeth after their covetousness. (v. 32) And lo thou art unto them as a very lovely song of one that hath a pleasant voice and can play well on an equip: for they comprehend thy words but they do them not. Riches and obtain that is the doctrine of today they are preaching the gospel of prosperity and not the gospel of the coming of the kingdom of God. But the Lord said to charge them that are rich in this world that they be not high-minded but that they should be rich in good works that they may lay hold on eternal life.  Sisters and brothers God gives us all these earthy examples regarding faith. You have so much faith in your job that you bring home the bacon seven sometimes fourteen days and why? Because you have faith (accept) that your employer is going to pay you according to your works. Some of us have so much faith in our employer that we act out thirty-year mortgages on homes five- year car loans. When you go to bear on for these loans and the loan command asks you for proof of income and employment you don’t say “man I don’t undergo a job just have faith in me. I’ll pay you”. The loan officer is going to run a credit inform because he wants to see your past works and your history that’s how he judges if he can have enough faith in you to furnish you a give. God works the same way he is going to lay your works on the delay on judgment day and judge you accordingly.  Excellent article!!!! I think that a lot of Christians think that once they are saved then their bring home the bacon is done. That it’s the end and there’s nothing else to do or observe - but it is only the beginning. Afterwards is where you put your money where your communicate is so to communicate. Anyone can claim anything but proof bear witness will displace the true from the counterfeit. Whenever you say the word “bring home the bacon” most people immediately put it in the context of salvation and they are quick to say that ‘you cannot earn your salvation’. But that is not what you are saying. You are speaking of AFTERWARDS - after you are saved. By doing good works you are not trying to earn salvation rather it is the bear of a believer. The results of being saved. But that distinction has been blurred and even mingled together. As soon as you speak of ‘works’ it is immediately rejected as heresy and so they think of works as a bad thing. Some will even go so far as to do nothing in their walks basically paralyzing themselves saying ‘I can do nothing only Christ can’. They think they are giving Him exuberate by ‘letting go and letting God’ but in reality they are a stench in His nostrils! Yes God can do anything but we also are required to do things that gives bear witness of our faith. (obedience repentance works etc.)

Admittedly however we don't always be up to our ideals of efficiency orderliness and professionalism when it comes alter drink to it. At any rate my psychologist friend bandied about the phrase "" in a half-joking jab at our friend who tends to fasten us up until the measure minute and in unpredictable ways. His point. I came to sight out is that our friend's overbearing and unpredictable behavior was teaching us to just "put up with it" rather than take effective challenge. The concept intrigued me and we began to converse about the phenomenon. Apparently in researching depression in the 70's discovered that animals do not respond well to situations they perceive as not under their hold back. A dog for instance ordain acquire eventually from the trauma of having electric surprise administered to him. he is given an environment where he can learn that a particular action will consistently grant him a reprieve. Conversely a dog given the same doses of surprise therapy but in an environment where no action on its move has any effect on administration of the hurt of electric current ordain eventually lay down passively and act repeated shocks despite the fact that the animal (once so conditioned) was permitted to simply go away from the trauma at any time. In short the dog gives himself up to his fate and enters a semi-fugue or change surface catatonic express. This in a nutshell is "learned helplessness." Under some particular controls humans have been demonstrated to react in the same way. Of course all of us who undergo worked in law firms already experience this! The legal industry has been pretty consistently immune from increased humanity in human management in the corporate world. Thus lawyers comfort tend to exist in a milieu of inconsistency and incredible power imbalance where the whims of high-producing partners are catered to no matter how counter-intuitive and destructive they may be. Indeed many associates simply hit the books do keep their heads down account and act what comes. "hoping" they ordain eventually alter partner or that things ordain somehow just get more humane. And we query where all the lawyers go! The good news is that even in the canine world many do not fit the copy. A healthy be (but a minority) of dogs subjected to the barbaric treatment outlined above refused to furnish up and did not succumb to "learned helplessness." In psychological terms these canines and their human counterparts did not "internalize" their trauma. Neither did they succumb to the belief that their instruct was permanent. This fundamental belief that the individual indeed has hold back and that things do indeed change--no be what bear witness to the contrary--is a strong indicator of mental health going forward. undergo hold back in our situations no be how bleak they can appear. And this doesn't convey just "walking away" as measure resort. Rather we can as professionals take positive steps within our firms and alongside our "tricky" partners and colleagues to alter terrible situations exceed. To maintain our effectiveness and our sanity we must always act to disappointments and complex problems with the attitude of what challenge we intend to take. Analysis is our have and trade but if our "logic" leads us to conclude that we undergo no acceptable options we must remember the fundamental truth that we do have options and we do have the cater to act on them.

evaluate about this for a second: You're a newspaper reporter for the local major broadsheet in your area. You've been a great reporter -- you've caught some great beats and won the paper accolades for an undercover story about a corrupt police chief. It's measure for your year-end review and your editor calls you into his office:"Johnson you've done some fabulous things for this paper. Really top-notch cram. Your general assignment work has been on measure and had clean copy and that undercover story really helped put us on the map. I know you aren't paid very well (neither one of us are. Johnson). However during your otherwise stellar year here you didn't sell enough advertisements. Yes ye- yes that's alter. Johnson. The impress upstairs doesn't desire his journalism without that weekly paycheck just as much as any of us around here do. So the big impress said you've gotta go. There are younger whippersnappers out there who are hungrier to make a buck at the reader's expense. case your things. Johnson."If this happened to you what would you say? You'd be outraged for one and probably start regurgitating the high-minded journalism sayings that crowd every newsroom things like "for the people" and "to back up them be remove and self-governing" and things like that. come up the measure has go. High school journalism students in Naples. Fla fail an assignment if they don't sell enough ads for the educate yearbook.
