I received this thought provoking and perhaps controversial article via email forward today. I say controversial because I’m certain some will object to the opinions expressed. No matter where you stand on the issue the author certainly provides some serious food for thought. Looking forward to your thoughts on the subject. Thanks for sharing this Coach Ace.

Going Green is the thing and its about time!
While the important issues, like energy, have been down played by diversionary tactics and the same ole politricks… some of us remain focused on the issues. I think the record high gas prices we endured this year has us all convinced that alternative energy is a must!

I understand that Sarah Palin’s remarks were an attempt to discredit Barack Obama while showing that she’s qualified to be John McCain’s running mate, but to scoff at community organizers in the process was out of line and indicative of her ignorance and/or disregard of American history.
If it hadn’t been for community organizers Sarah Palin wouldn’t even be where she is today! Hello, the Civil Rights Movement and the Women’s Movement were lead by who? COMMUNITY ORGANIZERS…people that believed in change and were determined to make a difference.

For those that thought race was no longer an issue in America its been a rude awakening. While America has made great strides in race relations we still have a long way to go. I believe that despite how things may look, we are evolving, changing our thinking, and healing. It is not an easy or quick process but I see it happening. Is there a 12-step program for America’s race issues? Should there be one?
