I realize that she is the president of India, but let's be real. Post her question, give it the 3 days, and get over it. Terrorism will never be wiped out, and even so, not too many terrorists come from America, unless you count the CIA. Let them post the question in Pakistan or Afghanistan.

our government gives full education to all eligible students and share the financial status of the student. if all get education they get opportunity in jobs and they are in good position in financial status. if the financial status goes high, the thinking goes on right way.nobody goes the wrong way.it diminishes the terrorism of the nation.if terrorism decreases, the peace of the nation is assured.peace nation means the growth is strong and steady.

When people make positive comments such as this response to the Indian leaders question:

First, we each must work to rid ourselves from bigotry and hatred and to nurture respect, kindness and compassion for all people. Next, we need to work hard to help all human beings find good work, good food, clean air and water, and a good education.

THAT response got 4 thumbs down.

Why is it that people oppose GOOD solutions? It's like they have to be totally dishonest and take down GOOD PEOPLE just because...for no other reason.

To these people I ask, is this how you VOTE too? Is this how you would act if your very life depended on it?

Is there ANYTHING you do with your life that is honest and beneficial?

I mean you have a leader of a country ASKING THE WORLD what their solution would be.....and half these people can't even use this opportunity to DO SOME GOOD.

So why complain at all when you have an opportunity to make a difference and you DONT???

hey! I am actually working on a community event- 100 chairs. We are inviting 100 artists to paint 100 chairs and we are going to auction these chairs off for charity purposes. We are desperately looking for wooden crates or pallets to place the chairs on so as not to dirty them. Any great ideas? We have tried grocery shops to no avail as the suppliers will bring back the crates for fruits! Any suggestions? Please help us! Thank you!

Note from A Study Of Our Decline by Philip Atkinson
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Is it Assimilation or Invasion?
by: Phyllis Schlafly
November 28, 2001
Since the 9/11 terrorist attacks, support for the United States has poured in from around the world, but the response from Mexico has been decidedly lukewarm. A Gallup poll reported that 78 percent of Mexicans oppose contributing troops to a multinational coalition, and we have seen no indication that Mexico will modify its oil policy of acting like a member of OPEC.

While there is no evidence that the 9/11 terrorists entered over the Mexican border, the trial in El Paso of an Iraqi smuggler produced evidence that he alone brought more than 1,000 Middle East illegals into the United States via that route, charging his clients $10,000 to $15,000 each. Border Patrol agents have confirmed the increase in illegal aliens coming from the Middle East across our southern border and the fact that Arabs pay up to $50,000 each for a "coyote" to smuggle them into the United States.

The 9/11 events have temporarily shelved the foolish proposals to grant amnesty to three million Mexicans illegally living in our country. Unfortunately, there is no indication that Mexico has retreated from its longtime goal of opening the U.S. border.

In Chicago on July 27, 1997, then Mexican President Ernesto Zedilla told the National Council of LaRaza, "I have proudly affirmed that the Mexican nation extends beyond the territory enclosed by its borders." He announced a Mexican constitutional amendment that purports to allow Mexicans to retain their Mexican nationality even though they become U.S. citizens (which is contrary to the U.S. naturalization oath).

When President Vicente Fox came to the United States this year, he reiterated this line, proclaiming that "the Mexican nation extends beyond the territory enclosed by its borders" and includes migrants living in the United States. He called for open borders and endorsed Mexico's new dual citizenship law.

Some Mexicans use the term "reconquista," which is Spanish for reconquest, to describe their desire to see California, New Mexico, Arizona and Texas acquired by Mexico and named the new country of Aztlan. They are teaching their youth that the United States "stole" those areas from Mexico and that they should be "returned."

The United States acquired the Southwest a century and a half ago in three ways: part by the 1845 annexation agreement with Texas, which was then an independent republic, part ceded by Mexico in the 1848 Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo after the Mexican-American War, and part by the 1852 Gadsden Purchase

Mexico's claim to the Southwest originated with the 1494 Treaty of Tordesillas, which drew an imaginary line on the map to divide the Western Hemisphere between Spain and Portugal. Because geography had so many unknowns at that time, Portugal got only Brazil (which is why Brazilians speak Portuguese).

Other countries never recognized this treaty, and Americans consider it ridiculous even to talk about giving the Southwest to Mexico. Most national borders all over the world have come about as the result of war.

Mexicans obviously have no thought of invading the Southwest with troops, so their hope is reconquista by migration, both legal and illegal. According to Mario Obledo, founder of the Mexican American Legal Defense & Education Fund, "California is going to be a Hispanic state and anyone who doesn't like it should leave."

An amnesty rally in the Los Angeles Sports Arena on June 10, 2000 attracted 25,000 people. In demanding amnesty for illegal Mexican aliens, the speakers proudly announced the names of at least a dozen unions in Los Angeles that are now headed by Mexicans.

Vicente Fox presented Mexico's Congress with a five-year development plan to eliminate the U.S.-Mexican border. He said he plans to serve "the 100 million Mexicans who now live in Mexico and the more than 18 million who live abroad," and to "strengthen our ability to protect and defend the rights of all Mexicans abroad."

Juan Hernandez, appointed by Fox as special liaison to Mexicans abroad, lobbies to get U.S. driver's licenses issued to illegal aliens and defends the Mexican government's issuance of desert survival kits to those sneaking across the border. On ABC's Nightline on June 7, he boasted: "We are betting that the Mexican-American population in the United States ... will think Mexico first."

Fox's five-year plan calls for building a larger consular presence in the United States, and this is already in operation. In U.S. areas with large Hispanic (including illegal) populations, the Mexican consul donates to the local public schools the same textbooks that are used in every elementary school in Mexico, grades 1 through 6.

The books, written in Spanish and including all academic subjects, teach that America "stole" the southwest from Mexico and that Mexico is entitled to take it back. The Mexican government considers these textbooks a symbol of Mexican national pride, guarantees a set to every Mexican child, and makes it a crime for anyone to sell them.

The only reason we learned about this Mexican plan is that one school in Santa Ana, California, decided to sell the books at a book fair and the local Hispanics kicked up a fuss about it. The school apologized to the Hispanics for selling the books, but should have apologized to the students for accepting the books in the first place.

The question we should ask our Mexican immigrant friends is, are you assimilating or invading?

I have been trying to understand why some people refuse to acknowledge what really happened on 9/11.

People are not stupid. If you present the information in a well prepared format, fully documented, with indisputable evidence, they will see the truth for what it is. There is a catch, even if they see the truth, few may be willing to accept it, as the truth, because it goes against what authority figures have told them.

It would seem we have about 2/3 of our population that have been conditioned to believe and obey what authority figures say, even if it flies against their better judgment for fear of repercussions. In a word, they have been "Broken" by the system, and are now being "Played" by the system.

Think about it !

* As a child, you have to believe and obey in what your parents tell you or you will be punished. Ouch!
* As a student, you have to believe and obey in what your teachers tell you or you will be punished. Ouch !
* As a youth, you have to believe and obey in our police or you will be punished. Ouch!
* As a young adult, you have to believe and obey government officials or you will be punished. Ouch!
* As an employee, you have to believe and obey in your superiors or you will be punished. Ouch!
* As a soldier, you have to believe and obey in your superiors or you will be punished. Ouch !

Few people get through this "Gauntlet" without being broken or at least without incredible fear of authority. How some people manage to stand up to authority, after that conditioning, seems to defy logic. These people have an inner strength that keeps them sticking to their guns, even in the face of danger: They will not cow. They are the "stallions": They are the "Apache" (so proud to live): They are the "unbreakable": They are the ones who demand,
"GIVE ME LIBERTY OR GIVE ME DEATH !"

I vote, usually in Presidential and State elections, and in my town's mayoral elections. I only skip doing so if I'm really sick or have urgent matters to attend to.

Do you vote, and do you learn as much as you can about the candidates in the elections?
