  • Conflicting Value Systems: The Paradox at the Heart of the American Dream  By : Uday Gunjikar
    We in the United States pride ourselves in being a society that is able to assimilate and include people of every ethnic group, cultural or religious background, belief or value system. The reason being that the Founding Fathers of this great nation had a profound, inspired vision—a vision of multi-cultural, multi-ethnic inclusion—a vision of all of mankind working together for a brighter future, free from the bonds of political tyranny or religious persecution or ethnic discrimination. However, what is the cost of defending the vision of the Founding Fathers? What is the paradox at the core of the American Dream?

  • Africa buries her head in sand as looters drain coffers  By : masood ahmed
    The most momentous news to come out of Kenya these past few days was not the celebratory roar by supporters of the winners of respective ODMs presidential nominations.

    It was the deafening silence that attended the release of a report linking allies of former President Daniel Moi to massive looting that allegedly saw billions of dollars taken out for safekeeping and investment out of the country.

    One searched in vain for clamour for action by politicians and citizens in general to, at the very
  • Crony Contracts and the Bush Administration  By : Ravish Kalra
    Private contracts are handed out by the federal government in droves these days. However, the use of private contractors is an old tool of the government. Private contractors were used during the removal of Native Americans from the southeast. In 1831 thirteen thousand Choctaws made the long, forced trek from their home in Mississippi to the arid prairies of the mid-west.
  • The Presumptive Republican Nominee & That Other Guy  By : shaikh Asif
    I’ve noticed lately that the media has taken to calling John McCain the presumptive Republican presidential nominee. It’s a strange sort of twist considering that a couple months ago they seemed so certain that McCain was the Republican presidential nominee. It wasn’t so long ago that the media was crowing that all other Republican candidates had dropped out. Yet today we suddenly hear again and again that McCain is the presumptive nominee.
  • A Speech to be read by Ron Paul to the RNC  By : aarif sagaciti
    Some time ago, in the spring of 2008, I was contacted by someone involved with Ron Paul’s candidacy and asked to write a speech to be given at the RNC. It was to be a speech designed to entice the undecided delegates into casting their votes for Ron Paul to run for the office of President of the United States as the Republican candidate. Apparently this person had read some of my pro Ron Paul articles and felt I was perhaps talented enough to write a persuasive speech.
  • A Speech for the RNC Supporting a Ron Paul Candidacy  By : mahesh gadri
    Some time ago, in the spring of 2008, I was contacted by someone involved with Ron Paul's candidacy and asked to write a speech to be given at the RNC.

  • An Open Reply to Help Senator Durbin Better Understand the 'Read the Bills Act'  By : mufiz
    I recently used the DownsizeDC.org website to contact my representative and the senators from Illinois and tell them I support the "Read the Bills Act" and that I want them to vote for it. Senator Dick Durbin (well, probably not him personally but his staff) actually took the time to shoot me an email. This is very kind of his office to do, for it at least acknowledges me as a human individual and lets me know that they did take the time to read over my concerns, which is more than either my rep
  • Why must it come Down to Popular V. Patriotic: The Obama Eligibility Question?  By : sharuq
    From those initial illicit gatherings and conferences came the ‘birth of a nation.’
    Once again a small group of citizens are meeting in lawyer’s offices, on the internet and in media rooms with the National Press Club. Now it seems the participants in these meetings are clutching the Constitution and fighting to stop what they believe could be the ‘death of a nation!’
  • Princess Diana Crash: It Was A Blatant Lie When They Said That Her Injuries Were  By : Mantosh
    The injury that killed Princess Diana although critical was not fatal and in fact former President Ronald Reagan survived a similar injury when he was shot by John Hinckley in 1981! Surely if a 70 year old man could have survived such an injury why not a 36 year old woman in good health?

    The French doctors who were part of the team that tried to resuscitate Princess Diana at the hospital following the crash cited a tear in the left pulmonary vein as the source of internal bleeding that ultima
  • America’s Declining into Fascism  By : kramesh
    Fascism is a word tossed around much by those of us on the left side of politics. Dr. Lawrence Britt examined the fascist regimes of Hitler, Mussolini, Franco, Suharto, and several Latin American regimes. Through his examination Britt found 14 defining characteristics common to each regime. Does America have any of the characteristics Britt discovered? I believe elements of each characteristic can be found in America now, and I will cite examples of each characteristic.
  • American Flag - The Symbol Of Our Nation's Strength &Unity  By : altaf

  • Courtrooms, Cameras, Police, Kop busters &Yolanda Madden  By : scorpioamit
    Here in Illinois, at least in DuPage County, when one walks into the county courthouse one is not allowed to take so much as a camera phone in. I´ve often wondered about this. I´ve thought to myself, at times, "I wonder what they´re so afraid of." It seems to me that this is a public building, so aren´t the citizens of the county the actual owners? If they want to film on their own property, shouldn´t they be able to do so with impunity? If they want to take pictures of their public servants, do
  • Jagdish Tytler  By : ravi .verma
    Dear Friends:

    First and foremost of all that has been written or said it is essential to draw attention to the fact that the Anti-Sikh Riots of 1984 was a catastrophic aberration, an earthquake that shook, mangled and tortured millions of people, not only in India but nearly the whole world. The Riots of 1984 will go down in history as the most shameful, disgraceful and most dishonorable event that happened in a tolerance oriented, peace-loving and democratic country.
  • Voting the US Primaries  By : Steven Sharp

  • Peace on Earth - Perfect Christmas Presents For Kids  By : Connor Cameron
    If there is war between Iraq and the United States, many innocent people will die. Innocent Iraqi children, women and old people will die under the bombs, or be crippled and suffer, and a whole nation will drown in pain. War and other imbalances in the human living experience do not end through diplomatic process and negotiations. If that were possible we would have been able to end all war many years ago.

    PALIN IS A BUSH CLONE
    by Eric Lafayette, September 25th 2008 ( excerpts)

    Religious Fairy Tales and Intelligence.
    Palin and Bush believe in Creationism also called Intelligent Design rather then Evolution. Even worse they also believe that Creationism and Intelligent Design should be taught in public schools in the United States.
    Believing in Creationism or intelligent design as a science is a sure sign that the person who is a believer is not only ignorant but a borderline illiterate as well as extremely unintelligent.
    The teaching of Creationism or Intelligent design as a science has been rejected by the supreme court as well as all scientific institutions.

  • Two Dangerous Men  By : Bobby Miller
    It is most appropriate that George W. Bush and John McCain are meeting behind closed doors because that's where the two Bush terms were won. But we must remember not to attribute to malice that which can be adequately explained by stupidity. The good news is, what these two lack in leadership and integrity is made up for in arrogance and pig-headedness.
  • Democrats…Learned Anything in the Last 8 Years?  By : Bob Miller
    Mentioning John McCain and war hero in the same sentence is an oxymoron. Since I was shot down twice in Vietnam, I did at one time respect McCain until I started checking with those who spent time with him in North Vietnam. His nickname was "Songbird". McCain didn't volunteer to be a POW and he didn't begin to comply with Article III of the United States Code of Conduct after being captured.
