<<It never ceases to amaze me how divided we have become.>>

Think about why and what we are divided. It is awareness (of reality) versus unawareness and never the twain shall meet.

And somehow the aware need to prevail. The best, and only effective weapon is mass education.

That is what all of this conflict boils down to.

If we were a smart society, we would address education like we address war. It would be a Manhattan project.

Obama knows this. We can tell, as he is such a big proponent of both education and community colleges.

But we need to start at 2.5 years free education for everyone, and with hot meals, and free all the way through PHD. We must do that. It drives me crazy people don't see that.

One cannot see what one does not understand: "knowledge directed perception".

The right wing is blind to we liberals. They don't have a clue as to what we are about.
