Palin remarked, "I guess a small-town mayor is sort of like a community organizer, except that you have actual responsibilities." Now I'm all for upholding the dignity of small-town mayors and acknowledging the responsibilities they shoulder. And certainly we need to more of a town hall forum dynamic within government on a national scale if ordinary people are to have any access to counter the influence of corporate lobbyists. But it's just wrong to dis community organizers. More than that, it's politically stupid to belittle community organizers when you are trying to portray yourself as an insurgent candidate seeking to overthrow the Washington elite. So let's start with one obvious way in which community organizers make a difference. They register new voters. In 1992, a record 150000 new voters were added to the rolls in Chicago owing in large measure to a grassroots effort led by Project Vote. A January 1993 analysis by Chicago magazine on the local director of Project Vote concluded, "A huge black turnout in November 1992 altered Chicago's electoral landscape -- and raised a new political star: a 31-year-old lawyer named Barack Obama."

This 20 minute Wise Up Journal and We Are Change Ireland film shows the build up to World War III is in place waiting for the right spark and exposes the hypocrisy of the United Nations. This film Proves using main stream media it's self that Georgia, a state backed by the US and NATO, launched a disgraceful attack on the Russian population of South Ossetia. The US leaders on both sides are exposed as shills by using their own words. The powerbrokers, war advisors, behind the scenes are brought to the front reveling how the grand chessboard of the globe has mobilised it's supporters to begin World War III against Russia, Pakistan, Iran and perhaps even US built up China and India. The US and other nations have stated since 9/11 that the use of pre-emptive nuclear war is its prerogative.
