If I told you that every American could have a complete medical staff at their beckon call in the 21^st Century, would you take the same political stance as President Obama? For inspired by his comment that he was not sure the average American could have the same medical coverage as the President of the United States of America. I’ll have to send him to the experts and his children to explain how to do a video up-link on the internet. For with the invention of Remote Medical Screening, I do believe that through Enhanced First Responders Services every American cannot only have equal access to the medical knowledge they need to make an informed decision, but have instant access to the medical staff of their choosing.

Yes, even though I hold the political view that Congress should outlaw any and all medical procedures and services so every American is treated equally and fairly. I realize that My Peers and Community Elders of the 70’s have invested heavily in seeing that every American had readily access to Doctors and Hospitals with such things as 911 Call Centers, Ambulances, and EMTs to fulfill the aspirations of Americas’ Ancestors over the past 100 years. And why I do believe that a lot of Civil Unrest comes from the fact that many Americans are awakening by the fact that when they leave the Doctors’ Office that the medical bill is not paid in full even when they have the Best Health Insurance in the Land as believed by Americas’ Forefathers. I also know that the Founding Fathers of America gave “We the People” great power to handle the runaway cost of Health Insurance and basic medical procedures and services. For to me, Common Sense dictates that if “We” lower the number of visits to the Doctors’ Office than you lower the payout of the Health Insurance Companies which forces (through regulations if necessary) the lowering of Personal Health Care Insurance. However, understanding why Americas’ Democratic and Republican Civil, Political, and Religious Leaders are for better or worse Politically Unalienable Correct, I do believe that through Enhanced First Responders Services will help the next Generation become more enlightened about what it takes to become Medically Self-Sufficient.

Because why I may not be an expert in Enhanced First Responders Services nor tell you how to go about researching your medical needs, I do realize that in creating a Community 911 Remote Evaluation and Extraction Service for the 21^st Century that the entire Community Medical Services are just an Up-Link away. And why I know that there are more reasons to do than reduce the unnecessary trips to the doctors’ office or emergency room for all Americans, the benefits that it will give to the Government and Society remains Nameless in the Wilderness. Since, in having no personal experiences in Video Up-Link this Child of the 70’s knows better than to challenge the Political Freewill and Thinking of the Children of the 70’s when it comes to building a Better World than Their Parents.

Why I will not say that the Cash for Clunkers program designed by Congress and executed by Local Officials are without its faults; however, I do say it is hard to explain why giving the American Consumer a $4,500.00 tax cut to buy a new car that will not only lessen the expense of purchasing fuel, the impact on our health, and providing jobs to the masses. But has the unintended result of increasing the American Consumer, Small Business Owner, and Taxpayer Purchase Power at a time when the American Economy is shrinking happens to be a bad idea. No, the Loyal Opposition has a long road to haul if they think they can convince all Americans an investment of $4,500.00 for every car sold to the Private Sector is not worth the savings the American Taxpayer will see both in the Short and Long Term; nevertheless, I look forward to a debate on how increasing Consumer Purchase Power is a bad idea. For why I do believe the first billion was spent out of pent up rage of not being able to do nothing about Americas’ dependence on foreign oil. I do believe the faster Americans purchase automobiles of the 21^st century and retire the cars of the 20^th century; the faster Americans can afford the Trillion Dollar Health Care System being considered in Congress and Private Industry. Since it seems the money saved between the difference driving 12,000 at $.99 cents a gal. or paying $2.48 a gallon would provide the average American the funds to afford a decent health care insurance policy.

For if a $25,000 Cadillac Health Insurance Policy for every American Family is the goal of both Democratic and Republican Civil, Political, and Religious Leaders than I do believe the potential of every American Consumer, Small Business Owner, and Taxpayer making an additional $18,000.00 a year in Savings should put the wheels of the Left and Right spinning to find rhyme or reason for not support a new Automobile Revolution in America. Especially since History will show at the turn of the last century how Henry Ford used his influence as an American Baron to forever redefine the Industrial Revolution on the simple idea that his workers should be able to purchase the product that they were helping to build and live a comfortable lifestyle.

So why I wait for the Bad Boys of Detroit to bring to market a Zero Weight 100% Traction electric vehicle powered by the wind, I do believe it is in the Best Interest of My Peers and Community Elders to take advantage of the highest mpg cars and trucks available. While the Institutions of the Establishment to support the idea that someday President Obamas’ Vision of having an Electric Car capable of paying its owner to drive up Main St. and Down Wall Street. For I doubt if you can find anyone who is willing to say that they would not invest in a $4,500.00 tax credit for the opportunity of making over an $18,000.00 in instant return and all the good benefits that come with it. I do know it will take a loud voice from “We the People” to ensure that every American has that opportunity over the next 10-20 years. For just like first time Home Owners  are still given a tax credit for purchasing their house and the privilege of paying property taxes, so I think moderation should be shown in the Cash for Clunkers program that will allow first time new car owners keep reaping the reward of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009.

Why better than the political responses of the 30 years ago, in my opinion agreeing to disagree is more typical of My Brothers and Sisters of the 70’s than that held by the Children of the 21^st Century. And though explain how two Rights can make a Wrong will take as long to explain as how two Wrongs don’t make a Right. Personally I was hoping that a Man from Academia and a Man from Law Enforcement could do a better job of understanding than Americas’ Democratic and Republican Civil, Political, and Religious Leaders. Because why I know the lift is heavy, like two parents trying to do what is Unalienable Right for their Child I do believe most Americans would agree that the Clash of Authority is why “We the People” rely on our Grandparents and the Courts of the Land to have the final word.

So why I commend President Obama on his attempt to have a teachable moment about an Individuals Guaranteed Civil and Constitutional Rights as well as the Duties of a Law Enforcement Agent. I do believe the one person who could have bridged the gap of understanding between the two parties was notably absence from what the media is calling the Beer Summit. However, I do believe a Dinner Summit would have been a more formal setting for Chief Justice Roberts to attend and could have moved the conversation forward and beyond the political spectrum.

Since why both men are certainly entitled to their own opinion of what happened and why things got out of hand. In keeping with the Presidents’ Teachable Moment, I do believe that the Worlds of Academia and Law Enforcement like Americas’ Democratic and Republican Civil, Political, and Religious Leaders still have a long road to travel before either side can see the Natural Gap of Human Knowledge and Wisdom that separates Man and Woman.

The idea that I agree with something done by Americas’ Democratic and Republican Leaders in Congress should send chills down the spine of every America; nevertheless, I do believe the program that gives you a $4,500.00 instant rebate on purchasing a car with higher gas mileage will not only help the Bad Boys of Detroit put many Auto Workers back on the job, but offer 250 million American Consumers the opportunity to increase their personal income. And why I doubt if every American able to buy a new car this year will take full advantage of the program, I do believe that with the proper education more citizens will select the vehicles that return their monthly fuel bills back to $.99 cents a gallon.

Yes, simple math can turn that old clunker that gets 9-15 mpg into a new vehicle that can literally cut the amount of money you spend on gas in half if not more. For why 27-38 mpg may limit your selection of vehicles this year, given the fact that the increase in fuel mileage will put hundreds if not thousands of dollars back in the pockets of the American Consumer. I do believe with over 250 million cars and trucks on the road today Congress will find it almost impossible to stop the tax incentive once more and more banks and citizens become aware that the cost of the new car is actually lower than the payments of models made just a few months ago. Since knowing that the average American drives more than 12,000 miles a year, I do believe the difference of paying $11,880.00 a year ($.99 cents per gal) for gas compared to $29,760.00 per year ($2.48/gal) plus a $4,500.00 instant federal rebate should overwhelm the car dealers and the institutions that make the loans.

So why I may not be able to get a loan as a Poor Working American to take advantage of the first round of funding for the program. I do hope that all Americans will wake up and realize that at least one of the programs in the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act stands to make a huge impact on at least 250 million Americans in just a few months. For from the auto workers that get to keep their jobs to the shoe salesmen who gets commission for selling a new pair of shoes. It is ideas like this one that will not only help Americans reach energy independence, but lead the way for “We the People” to rebuild an economy for the 21^st century.

Why both Professor Gates and the Cambridge Police Officer should be charged with being stupid in my opinion. The fact that I doubt if Mr. Gates would have tolerated such outburst in his classroom from a student, as well as the arresting officer did not allow one of the other officers to defuse the situation before things got out of hand demonstrates to me why both parties were wrong. For whether it was a Battle of Male Ego or the Ignorance of the Individuals that lead to this event becoming a national issue, Authority has a price.

For a good example of two wrongs do not make a right. I do believe the media pundits are missing the point since a review should point out that why the police officer acted well within the established guidelines and procedures to determine if Mr. Gates was the proper owner of the home and not breaking into the home. However, the fact that Mr. Gates refused to allow the officer to do a walkthrough of the house does open the door of reasonable cause that he had something to hide. Because what would have happened if Mr. Gates had his house broke into while he was out of town, but did not notice anything was missing due to the confusion. Since I doubt Mr. Gates would believe one of his students left their homework at home if the student refused to let him follow him home and insure the homework was done.

Now, I’m not going to say Officer Crawley was wrong to try and defuse the rant of Mr. Gates based on his training and years on the force especially if the professor attempted to exploit his standing in the community to try to check the police officer. For why that move may work on a Rookie Cop (one with less than six months of the force) and send him running for the cover of his superior. I can see where Officer Crawley may have thought that his was the best one at the scene to handle Mr. Gates concerns about racial profiling seeing that Officer Crawley teaches the class to cadets. However, with Officer Crawley being of the New School and Professor Gates being of the Old School, I can relate to the idea that the Old Man is not going to listen to no Young Whippersnapper about an issue he has no knowledge of. However, the bottom line is a Police Officer caught in that situation should have called his first line supervisor to remove all doubt about the Authority of his Actions.

And why I was just impressed at President Obama coming out and say that all parties could have chosen better words to express their personal view point. I do hope the two will accept the offer of the Whitehouse to discuss the incident. For if not for the enlightenment of the Individuals involved, teaching the Media and the American Public that why both Academia and Law Enforcement may disagree on about everything in my point of view. The fact that this is the 21^st Century and not the 1950’s and 60’s I do believe that it would make, to use the Presidents’ own words, a Teachable Moment for the Nation.

For why there is more than enough blame to go around and unfortunately racism is still prominent in society today. Knowing that the Academia World and Law Enforcement are equal partners in trying to solve the issue through education and political means I do believe as an Unlearned Unbridled Anti-Authoritarian Child of the 70’s by Freewill and Self-Nature that this is one of those examples of Generational Stupidity. For if Authority is going to stay in charge than both men are going to have to learn that being right is not the same thing as being Unalienable Right Regardless.

As the Media Pundits debate on if the Government should issue another stimulus package, I wonder where and why they are not asking the Private Sector where their Stimulus Package is? Given that the so-called experts say that is where all the jobs will be created and all the profits are to be made one would think that the Elite on both sides of the political spectrum would find it better for them to dictate the pace of change inside of having the Elders and Powers-that-Be once again step in and tell them what the future will look like. Or is the Summit of the Billionaires in Utah just another feel good party of those citizens who think they are wealthy. For why the Stock Market remains at 8,000 with no good hope at reaching the all time high of 14,000 any year soon I wonder how many corporations are going to keep their stock holders if the only business in town hiring is the Federal Government.

For I would love to hear how Commerce and Industry are going to survive if they do not have the infrastructure to move their goods and services in the 21^st Century or meet the Bling-Bling of the 21^st Consumer as they look for more and more ways to cut down on their expenses. Yes, putting money into the Consumers’ hands when they have no confident in “We the Corporation” to bring to market the innovations needed to help build a better world would lead to the banks having more money through savings if history can be trusted. And why I will not say that is a bad idea in and of itself, having grown up challenging the Powers-that-Be of the 70’s I do believe that the Lone Voices lost in the Wilderness can and should hold the Private Sector accountable to the same Principles and Standards as their Elected Officials for coming up with a spending plan that will help every American have the opportunity to become economically viable and financially independent.

So stimulate this My Democratic and Republican Parties. With less than 25% of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act spent and lacking the guidelines to rebuild the Federal Infrastructure where are the plans of the Major Players on Wall Street to get back on their feet. For limited to My Personal Opinion, I ask My Brothers and Sisters of the 70’s if “We the People” should create another Corporate Welfare Program or follow our ancestors of the 1990’s and force Washington to create a Job Welfare System for Private Sector designed to move America toward Energy Independence and the Blessings of Prosperity that it will bring.

As a Child of the 70’s, I came to the Wilderness of my own freewill in search of the knowledge that could explain to My Peers why the Elders and Powers-that-Be of the 70’s told My Generation to go teach our parents right from wrong. However, it was not until this week that I stumbled upon the Wisdom in an American Steak. For a matter of survival with Americas’ Founding Fathers and a necessity for our ancestors of the 1800’s; today Americans are discovering that they only need about 4 oz. of meat a day in order to meet the nutrient needs of the Human Body at this level of productivity. Yet given the political divide and social debate in Government and Society of those that claim the Elite and Establishment are wrong in their attempt to change the Generational Thinking of Man let me ask you why is it that if I go to the store I can get a 16 oz. steak for about $7.00 T-bone steak or elect to go to a local restaurant and pay $12-15.00 for someone else to cook me a 12 oz. steak. But, hand the same piece of meat to a Chief and I get 2-4 oz. steaks that cost me a $150.00 a plate. So given the Argument of Generational Stupidity, does anyone care to explain why the Social Elite of the World eat less and pay 10 times as more for the daily requirements of nutrients of the Average Man given the Argument of Greed held by the Left and Right of Society over Limited Resources?

Yes, President Obama deserves to have a Loyal Opposition that is willing to openly debate the Democratic Leadership of America over what is the best path forward to making America as Individuals, a Nation, and a Society become Energy Independent. However, faced with the Media embracing the Ideology of Al Qaeda and the No-Nothing Party I have to wonder where are the Grass-root Movements like the Civil Right Movements of the Late 60’s and Early 70’s? For if Man is to be so Savage, why is it that besides the criminal element of society only a few citizens are rebelling against the Status Quo of the Establishment forced upon the Children of the 70’s and 21^st Century. Since as a Anti-Authoritarian Child of the 70’s I figured that if Man was truly savage that no amount of reasoning would stop Society’s Civilian, Military, and Political Leaders from blowing up the world by now. So please, explain to me why hiding your head in the sand at a time in History when no Man can say with Conviction and Courage that they know or understand what Reality will look like after the year 2012?

Having slept through the President speech to Congress and the Republican Response I am happy that in the 21^st Century that “We the People” have 24/7 coverage of Living History in Action. For why I know that the Morning Shows are gearing up to tell us what our ears heard last night and the Political Opinion that you should draw from the remarks of Americas’ Democratic and Republican Elected Civil, Political, and Religious Leaders. I have to ask My Fellow Americans if they are a No-Nothing or a Know Nothing kind of guy.

For thanks to the technology of our ancestors I was able to listen to President Obama and the Governor of LA gives their speeches without interruption or influenced by the remarks of the Media Pundits. And why I now hold a better understanding for myself on what the two gentlemen was trying to say about the State of America, I have to question My Republican Citizens and Leaders on their choice to give their response to President Obamas’ outlook for America. Because please explain to me how the lack of response to Katrina by President Bush is suppose to make me fear President Obama and the Democratic response to the Economic, Energy, and Financially Meltdown that they have acquired from the Leadership of the Republican Party over the last 25 years and Trickledown Economics. Since why I may not agree with President Obamas’ Trickle-Up Economics I was calmed by his speech and his personal twist on Americas’ State of Being and the path light up for My Peers and Their Children to follow.

Yes, I realize that the Republicans are busy trying to rebuild their party back to a National Force; however, as an Anti-Authoritarian Child of the 70’s I have to wonder how many new members they are going to get as more and more citizens feel the pain of their Wealth slipping away. For why I may agree in Principle that the Individual and State should be able to keep the money they make. I am also aware that much of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 has to do with the Standard of “We the People” to provide for the Federal Government that which it cannot do for itself. So I must ask you how “We the People” are losing the Taxpayers Dollar if the renovations of our Federal Buildings and Facilities are made energy efficient; Building a high speed transportation system that can relieve the problems of air traffic; and Spending 300 million to give the Federal Fleet new energy efficient vehicles when those sort of activities are seen as adding value by the Private Sector of Society. Since if I stack up the Presidents’ Argument up against those of My Peers who received the largest tax cuts in history and failed to protect Their Investment or modernize their buildings to be energy efficient I have no contest.

So why does the Republican Party put up pundits that are so easily defeated by their Democratic counterparts? Are they truly of the No-Nothing Party that despite the facts in front of them they refuse to change their way? Or is the Citizenry and Leadership of the Loyal Opposition in America ready to lead Management in the opportunities that await the Children of the 21^st Century that has been foretold by the Know Nothing Party of the Mid 1800’s. Because why I cannot speak for the Conservatives of Society, as an Independent Pundit who happens to hold an Unbreakable Argument against President Obama and the Pickens Plan to become Energy Independent I have to wonder about any National Party who would rather see their Grandchildren Money be given away instead of invested in the Government of “We the People” that they will need to help their Grandchildren face the Issues of Man and His Society.

Thus, why I did not learn anything new from last night speeches I am glad to see that more and more of My Fellow Americans are becoming aware of the difference between the No-Nothing Party of the 21^st Century and the Know Nothing Party of Americas’ Ancestors of the Mid-1800. And why I am moved by the fact that more and more of Americas’ Democratic and Republican Civil, Political, and Religious Leaders are accepting 6the fact that Americans can build a Sustainable Green Civilized Society through the Debate of Labor and Management. I wonder when the National Voice of the Loyal Opposition in Americas’ Politics in going to find the Courage and Conviction to challenge President Obama and the Democratic Party Ideology of Americas’ Energy Independence. For as an Unlearned Unbridled Anti-Authoritarian Child of the 70’s by Freewill and Self-Nature do I have to ask My Community Elders and Powers-that-Be for protection against those Individuals or States who would out of the Ignorance of Man limit Their Children Guaranteed Civil and Constitutional Rights to build a Better World?

Why I was not invited to the White House for the Fiscal Responsibility Summit I cannot help but comment on what I witnessed today. For why the extreme Left and Right may still want to believe that they are in the 20^th Century I am happy to see that under the guidance of President Obama and Senator McCain that headway was made on the major issues facing America over the next several years. However, I must question My Elders on limiting the Debate of Ideas to those selected by the Administration to attend. Therefore, I ask President Obama to go through with the gathering of ideas and making a Report subject to review by “We the People” for 60 days of Public Comments that would be included in his Final Report.

Yes, time is of essence, but I do believe that the American Citizenry would be better served by the White House and Congress if the American Layman Citizen could be included in the Idea Building of how best to handle the several issues spoke about in the break-off sessions. For why I realize that there is no single Prefect Answer on how America can deal with the budget. I do believe that Americas’ Democratic and Republican Elected Officials would be shocked to discover how well informed “We the People” are about the trouble of allowing Washington to keep on spending without regard to the debt that they are burdening the Children of the 21^st Century with in the Future.

So why I urge you to write President Obama and your Congressperson in support of Fiscal Responsibility I do hope that you will include your Personal Opinion on any ideas that can help Americas’ Democratic and Republican Civil, Political, and Religious Leaders get the Federal Budget back under the control of “We the People” in the next few years. For faced with a Do-Nothing Loyal Opposition due to the fact that they disagree with a small percentage of the efforts of “We the People” I do believe that President Obama and the 111^th Congress needs to know that they have the Freewill of the Nation to take the necessary steps which will see America return to a Balanced Federal Budget sometime in the Future.

Writing in support of Americas’ Recovery and Reinvestment Plan going to conference I hope that the citizens who are not pure political junkies do not believe the game is over. For unable to get a copy of Sesame Street “How a Bill becomes a Law” know that this is just one step in a journey of many. So I hope you continue to contact your Elected Officials and offer them a constructive opinion on what should be included in the final draft that is signed by President Obama.

For why the rant of extreme and talking points of party leaders like Hannity and Rush will surely dominate the air waves and influence Americas’ Democratic and Republican Civil, Political, and Religious Leaders. I would enjoy discussing with them how a Spending Program or Tax Cut would help those around them. Because why I cannot reach Hannity or Rush for their opinion, I wonder if they would care to explain how given them a Tax Cut is going to help their advertisers and listeners. Are they going to buy every listener every product aired on their program?

Yes, this conference is to iron out the difference between what the House wants and what the Senate will let them have. And why I do disagree with the cuts in the education system, I do believe that with a little bit of Community Spirit “We the People” can actual do better with less from our Government. For why I am neither Event Planner nor “Ty” of Extreme Home Makeover I do believe that many of Americas Schools could be brought into the 21^st Century by getting neighbors involved. For if America can build homes for the Poor without government help than painting and erecting classrooms provided the local school broads and businesses pay for the material and draw up the plans would saving our Local, State, and Federal Government more than they would ever spend to stimulate the economy, but also serve add a sense of Community Pride not known since the Great Depression.

Yes, President Obama may be right when he says that Government is not the only solution to the problems in America; however, facing a Loyal Opposition who is hamstrung to the Argument that Doing Nothing is Better I have to ask for whom.  For why they may be able to withstand the next four years unemployed in the hope that the Future gets better, knowing that millions of Americans can see past that argument or do not have the means to survive such fallout. I wonder if NIMBY can ever discover why President Reagan Trickledown Economics failed to withstand the attack on the Market. For by his own words President Obama knows that the passing of the America Recovery and Reinvestment Plan is just one step of many bringing change to Washington. So please keep up the pressure on Americas’ Democratic and Republican Civil, Political, and Religious Leaders to deliver President Obama a Comprehensive Economic, Energy, and Environmental Plan that “We the People” can hold him accountable.
