Architects of a New Dawn

We’d like to show the side of the world you don’t normally see on television.

The last thing we need is another "tea party" type movement demonizing Barack Obama!

Be careful what you wish for - can you even imagine what would happen if the neocons took back over? Think before you act!

Like Mother Teresa, I would never join an "anti-war" movement but will join a pro-peace movement! In this case, anti-obama vs. pro-solution!

Every problem has a spiritual solution. Anger never solved anything. Jimmy Buffet, my old sailing buddy in the late 70's put on a grand concert on the Alabama coast to tens of thousands of people, and his last ballad was an adaptation of "Clear Coast" - "I am looking forward to a clear coast - clear of greed crude.

Jimmy was a very effective leader in "Save the Manatees" movement back in the 80's which was very successful!

And he is going to have a series of these concerts called One Love, One Ocean with a peace sign and a dove on the t-shirts and a gigantic roof of the pavilion where he sang.

Jimmy BuffettIf you caught Jimmy Buffett and Friends: Live From the Gulf Coast when it aired Sunday night (July 11) on CMT, then you had to have noticed the huge crowd that turned out for the free show in Gulf Shores, Ala. I don't know the exact number, but it looked like attendance came pretty close to the 35,000 mark that organizers were expecting. That's a great thing for the people and businesses of the Gulf Coast area and, at the very least, shows one thing to local officials: People still want to head to the beach -- especially if you give them a special reason. To that end, it looks like Buffett's show may only be the first in a series of free concerts held on the Alabama coast. According to the Associated Press, there's a $15 million tourism grant from BP that could be used to put on more shows. Promoters are already pointing toward Faith Hill and Zac Brown Band (who had to miss the Buffett show due to a scheduling conflict) as possible performers, as well as Hawaiian beach rocker Jack Johnson. What do you think? Who would you want to see? And how much would it help the area

Jimmy was the spearhead of Save the Manatees movement in Florida in the 80's, and this turned out to be very successful. Now he is singing about a "Clear coast, where there is no more greed & crude." I hope this movement is just as successful! Give Positive Efforts a Chance!

Obama is doing the best he can against the just say no party! The problems started when Reagan started de-regulating everything and then Bush/Cheney took it to an obscene extreme!

Watch the video "When the Coast is Clear" by Jimmy Buffett that should be coming up soon! His eyes are tearing up, and many in the audience are crying when he sings about Clearing the Coast of Crude & Greed - I hope I live to see the day!" and then ends with a shout-out SAVE THE COAST!

Be responsive and not reactive - that "Dr." who demonizes Obama sounds like a "tea Party" racist ranter - neocons have been the worst leaders we have ever had! And are mostly responsible for all the problems we have now!
