VIDEO: Obama's Closing Argument

I believe I was sitting facing my brand new PC connecting to a local BBS in Cocoa Beach, Florida... as any good Republican Air Force geek... reading via an early newsgroup about this guy at Harvard was the first black President of the Harvard Law Review. I wouldn't have made much of it, until I read his name upon the screen:

Barack Obama

At one year before the Web was born, I thought... sheesh, it's gonna be tough with that name. I forgot about the guy until he spoke at the 2004 Democratic Convention, twelve years later. Not only did I remember his name, now there was a face and a speech... and a vision.

Today, 6 days before the election day, after the many months of petty attacks by petty partisans, Barack Obama is poised. He has one last message before we find ourselves before the ballot. The story he captured and remembered was ours. He simply hopes to be "The Enabler"...



27 minutes later, sounds like the guy might just be a little good for us all?

The Time is Right. How Columbus, Georgia Industry Can Lead Globally.

Capital gain tax cuts were a recent scheme for "distribution of wealth" for a period of time. A form of welfare for the successful to inspire innovation. Did you? Some innovated and grew their businesses while others invested in beach condos at inflated prices.

Due to the economic changes, the tax scheme time may be over. For all that have benefited the last 8-10 years -- congratulations. Now is the time to grow your business/new business through innovation. Reinvest that money in new technologies and paradigms within your own industries.

1. Figure a way to play on the global scale.
2, Hire some educated Americans professionals to help you.
3. Hire a great communications firm to assist you in branding, positioning and marketing your business.

What I've stated above is the answer for the $250k+ business owners to grow to $1M businesses by simply working more strategically. The world is hungry for American ideas and ideals. Working together, I believe we all can push QUALITY Columbus ideas, goods, services further into the global market. This is why I believe in the free market, and more importantly -- why I love the future I imagine for Columbus, Georgia.

24/7 News Cycle : An Informational Failure

The "24/7 News Cycle" contains very little NEWS, and mostly partisan analysis. Investigative news has fallen to the wayside to political advocates. This is how we end up with former radio DJs or comedians analyzing foreign policy with PR pros.

What does Hannity know about military service? Nothing. What does Rush know of solid foreign policy? Nunca. There are brilliant thinkers on every facet of an issue with true solutions that don't have an R or a D next to them. Our local radio stations choose not to air those syndications.

If you're seeking a TV face and voice to fear and agree with you, yes, you'll probably find one on today's cable news. But if you're looking to solve real issues, take a moment to listen to brilliant thinkers... we can find them on the web beyond the fray:

Learn for yourself. There's simply no excuse anymore. :)

Cool Consumer Trend: Lower Prices!

Just a quick note. Although the Wynnton Road Walgreen's has been out of sugar since last week, I'm told that they won't have any sweet stock until mid-month. Sugar-rationing is so WWII, ya'll.

HIGHER FOODS, LOWER STUFF.
I've also noticed food prices are rising. Thank G-d we're no longer spending $28-ish for two cans of formula a week! Now, with all the extra cash, we're able to buy rugs, light bulbs, home electronics, and baby toys at greatly reduced prices.

I suppose the profit margin for consumer goods is now in favor of you and I... at least for a bit.

pssst... look out for big coupons and deals at your corner Pharm.

Why is Gasoline *still* really expensive?

OUR OIL SUPPLY IS ROCKIN'.
Right now, the world is pumping & transporting more oil out of the Earth than ever before. Extra sumpin' special from Saudi Arabia, fresh spickets in Iraq, offshore American, Venezualan and Indonesian rigs doing their part -- we're talking about A LOT of oil, folks. A lot more than ever before in like -- all of history?

Therefore "supply" in supply and demand is in check.

MY PERSONAL OIL DEMAND FALLING.
As a creature of habit, I've always tanked up $20 since 1989. For years, it'd fillerup. These days -- the same $20 yeilds less than a quarter of a tank in my SUV.

No more quick joyrides to the beach for the weekend or a spontaneous evening trip to Atlanta's Starlight Drive-In for a double-feature. I simply drive a whole lot less.

My "demand" for gallons is down. As it is for millions of others around the world.


Then, why is gasoline still so fricken expensive? Have we forgotten how to transport or refine it? Nope, profits are up. So what is it?

I'm no "Caribou Barbie" or "energy specialist"... but could it be that our friendly American gasoline peddlers are acting a bit greedy and self-important at our expense? Or is it time to live a simpler life? Imagine how we might treat our own neighborhoods if we spend less time speeding to the edge of it...
