Dear Folks,
I am thinking in this period of time when OWS (Occupy Wall Street) is gearing up for a further attempt to awaken a sleeping society, that we must help its leaders consider the many issues that are at stake. Please feel free to comment using the functionality on this blog!
OWS needs to help people, especially in the South (examples now, Mississippi and Alabama), where l4% roughly of the citizens of these two states believe that Obama is a Christian and over 40% believe he is Muslim. Obama has his problems. However, compared to the nightmare of having another Republican president and a Republican controlled Congress, Obama is a gift to democracy. Free of any more need for monied support if he is elected, he can proceed to act on his authentic values, which I believe are close to OWS. Most importantly, we know from political history that a movement like OWS can profoundly effect the agenda of a president and a national Congress (as well as democratic legislatures and governors in every state) What is your deepest concern?
