Soft power is more important than military power.

Here's what Napolean had to say about it: "Even in war, moral power is to physical as three parts out of four."

We didn't win the cold war with military power, we won it because of rock and roll, blue jeans and freedom. (Yes, military power kept us from becoming commies, but it was a stalemate, not a victory.)

Now we're losing the middle east because of Abu Ghraib, Guantanamo and the lack of electricity and sewage treatment in Bagdad.

Even though the American public doesn't know it, we scored big by helping out after the Tsunami and the Pakistani earthquakes. That was far, far cheaper than the war in Iraq. We need to do way more!

When people like you, they don't send suicide bombers after you. When they trust you, they don't revolt after you invade their country to remove a dictator. When they respect you, they listen to what you have to say.

I'm not saying that soft power is everything, I'm just *asking* how we can improve it.

Ive seen a few people posting that there sad about what happen to the guy in there 360 but I'd like to know the scoop! I know he died but how, when, why...if you have a site I can go to that would be so great...I can let others know as well!
I so enjoyed watching him on the Crocodile Hunter and very loving yet risky man who was so uplifting to watch with his great personality and energy! My cousins just came back from visiting his zoo in Austrailia and said it was so much fun...hot..but fun!
He will be missed greatly.

Please help to keep the research and education about wildlife that our beloved Steve Irwin held so dear. Donate to his foundation
www.wildlifewarriors.org.au.

It took a one in a billion accident to kill a one in a billion man. We love you Steve.

A Darwin Award is a tongue-in-cheek honor given to people who inadvertently improve the human gene pool by removing themselves from it following an episode of questionable judgment. The prizes, named after pioneering evolutionary theorist Charles Darwin, are awarded over the Internet. There is no monetary prize, only recognition.

This can be about anything- morally, economically, or otherwise..What steps could be taken to resolve or prevent these issues from worsening?

I always thought he was a little overactive, but still, when I heard he died, I kinda couldn't believe it b/c i can't imagine him being dead, not jumpin around, jus not doing anything. I feel sorry for his wife and kids.
