John,
That was a great post. We sure do need new leaders now. I totally agree with Forbes, they hit the nail on the head. No more Bill Gates, no more Al Gore and absolutely no more Cremer, the most disgusting American I know.
What we need is people like Bill Clinton, Tony Blair, Nelson Mandela, Michael Dell, Norman Schwarzkopf, Muhammed Ali (although he is not capable of doing this anymore, I would strongly recommend everyone to see the Oscar-winning movie "When we were Kings", I have deep respect for the man, as a boxer, but especially as a human being),Al Greenspan, Steve Forbes and others.
We can no longer afford to follow the greedy ones.
We need a new kind of leadership.
The first step to a solution is accepting the problem.
Let us remind the words of John F. Kennedy who said; Don't ask what your country can do for you, ask what you can do for your country
I really think it is good news that finally people like Clinton and Forbes are moving in the right direction. Forget the stock-prices, forget the greed.
We need to change focus,
I will be more specific on this subject later. Thanks for thinking in the right direction.
