compassion, collaboration & cooperation iN transistion
An open letter to ...
Barrack Obama. on this his 1Oth day of office as
the 44th President of the United States of America.
”There is nothing more difficult to carry out, nor more doubtful of success, nor more dangerous to handle than to initiate a new order of things. For the reformer has enemies in all who profit by the old order, and only luke-warm defenders in all those who would profit by the new order. This quality of lukewarmness arises partly from a fear of adversaries, who have the law on their side, and partly from the incredulity of mankind, who do not truly believe in anything new until they have had actual experience of it.”
Machiavelli - The Prince - 1513
Mr. President.
May we “the peoples of the world” support you in your quest to re-establish the symbolism of democracy, in accordance with the common-sense collective values of the peoples of the USA; such that The White House [IT] SELF should become synonymous with the concept of Merchants of LOVE not Merchants of DEATH.
Information is explicitly the LIGHT of knowledge.
Instinctive, intuitive, insightful, innovative, initiative taking are tacitly and
collectively the Keep It Simple Sustainable solution to the attainment of an
understanding of the wisdom of knowledge.
THE wisdom of knowledge of understanding can only be manifested as a result
of THE INTEGRITY of appropriate responsible ACTION.
Just imagine opening the door to a common-sense MODEL of global politics, based on the collective mindset of the peoples of the USA "waiting for Republicans and Democrats to catch up with them”; such that you will forever “find it possible, in talking to these men and woman, to understand their motives, and to recognize in them values” which WE SHALL ALL SHARE.
A bottom-up, top-down model of equitable thinking, based on ...
”solving problems rather than winning arguments”.
A model based on integrity, responsibility and accountability, which
demonstrates an absolute commitment to ethical standards.
A model which acknowledges the USA's onerous responsibility, in the
process of providing a "fit for purpose" global solution, equal to its public
obligations to humanity, in line with retired US Supreme Court Justice,
Sandra Day O'Connor's statement that ...
"Professionalism requires adherence to the highest ethical standards
of conduct and a willingness to subordinate narrow self-interest in pursuit
of the more fundamental goal of public service."
A model fit for setting THE moral standard for ALL the peoples of the planet such that “whatever you do for the least of my bothers you do for me”.
As WE ALL find ourselves staring into the abyss and our leaders continue to espouse confrontational rather than common-sense collective solutions to the problems of our age - and then. in the context of your conversation with George Bush in 2004, that ...
“you had both got better than you deserved” -
WE APPLAUD your first step in acknowledging the urgent need to address
the equal rights of women, not just “their” long expected responsibilities.
ALL hail to THE Chief !
and IF ALL ELSE FAILS
JUST LISTEN TO THE CHILDREN
BUT BE VERY VERY CAREFUL OF WHAT
THE PEOPLE WISH FOR ...
NO SURPRISE THERE THEN

Memos to Obama, for HIS consideration, in the context of
establishing THE ”fit for purpose” global solution

Once again I address European Change for this year 2009.
Leadership, Innvoation, Collaboration, Transformation, Change:
its like the King Discipline In Olympic Games.
Who will do it? When? How?
Who can do it? When? how?
Which disciplines need championship?

Decathlon
or are there even more disciplines involved?:):)
Who are referees?

I do hope this sentiment makes it to your President. He needs all of the ‘high’ level support he can get. I continue to send my best wishes in his and his family’s direction and encourage everyone who’s interested
in a cleaner, more decently functioning world to dig very deep and to do the same.
The battles should be over, don’t you think?
Peace to you. Sherrilene

I agree, Sherrilene! And personally I have never met more “HIGH” level support than you, Micheal and Albert! At times there are large groups of meditators here at the studio and it facinates me the love…the beating love…silence and hope that the individuals are sending and keeping in their hearts to and for the President. The atmosphere can become overwhelming in the best way, just throbbing.
Thank you, Michael!!!
Thank you, Michael!!

UNLESS Barack Obama can absolutely establish capitalism as well as democracy as a function of the people, for the people, by the people and as such demonstrate his ability to manifest his leadership by the example of selfless caring and compassionate LOVE for ALL the peoples of the planet, there will BE no point in answering ANY of Albert’s MOST POIGNANT questions, in the face of the ever increasing number of CRISES that LIFE on EARTH is now and will be presented with.

“THE KISS” IS symbolic of LOVE as ONE

… and as Albert has so rightly reminded US - ONLY
in the context of Gender Liberation Beyond Feminism

Mr President,
Certain peoples of the old world once decided to make the big leap forward and in so doing the new world was established. That new world example of belief and action has now been adopted by the entirety of the old world as its modus operandi.
The consequences of these beliefs and actions, however, are beginning to be understood by an increasing collective of certain peoples of our planet, from a global perspective, and NEW ACTIONS have to be initiated at local level, on a global scale, which will address ALL the issues of peak oil, peak water, peak food, peak everything as the peoples of the planet accept that climatic changes are taking place, whether
exacerbated by homo sapiens or not.
Your own call, as leader of the new world, to ALL leaders of our planet, is one that invokes co-operation and collaboration at a global scale but what is needed now is a symbolic action of NEW leadership, which adheres to the keep it simple principle but demonstrates an absolute commitment to every single one of our species, to lead by the example of THE most compassionate NEW actions.
In the context of focusing on WELLNESS for ALL, how about a penny on every consumer transaction, whatever that transaction might be, to fund your medicare and medicaid objectives in the first instance?
I await your response accordingly …
