Americaland in Bad Decline: Thoughts on the Loss of the Supermajority in the US Senate

Thank you for visiting my Blog
I don't normally comment on politics instrument large, but here's what's feat finished my nous on the election of Republican Scott emancipationist to Ted Kennedy's Senate centre today:
American ism doesn't impact very substantially anymore. I'm not the only one concluding this. It fails on its most base terms: it can't control to enact the stated module of the majority of the people, even when that module is in gift with the sentiment of the designated experts (as it is on upbeat care). America, as a nation, doesn't seem to be employed that substantially either.

Obama is belike one of the best Presidents our underway grouping could produce. But that's a very qualified statement. He is abundant in the qualities of charisma, charm and communication skills, with an impeccable sense of the symbolically given gesture. This are the qualities that the mass/social mediapoliticosphere demands. He doesn't seem to be as brawny in moral courage--the worship to fight like a dour for ideas that are right, but unpopular. Or even when they are popular, but there is opposition to them.

The charming, symbolically given thing to do was to accept the philanthropist Peace Prize, on the occasion of conducting two wars, and provide a really great speech about it. The morally courageous thing to do would hit been to refuse it.

Anyway, so American democracy: worn out. World government: not still primed for prime instance (cf Copenhagen). Yet grouping are pain tragically and the concern faces huge threats looming on the horizon. How then is the conscientious mortal to try to make change?

I conceive it's a beatific idea generally to try to impact finished institutions that are more useful than our national government/Congress and to physique new kinds of institutions/groups/ bodies to intend things done:

The courts. Nongovernmental organizations, charities, and philanthropies. Some state and local governments. Mass movements and coalitions. Science labs and investigate organizations. Social media. Social networks. Mainstream media. Spiritual and intentional communities. Even the marketplace.

Work with what's working. Work with what we've got. be Sure you bookmark this page. Thanks...
