I promise to deliver the remains of the Internet Marketing checklist but I'm certain that it's not foremost in American minds lately.
I'm also not very big on tracking the political agendas of either American party and I'm not a 'political satirist'. The simplest reality is that if you've been tracking the news with even one eye open, have you ever asked yourself WHY AREN'T THE OBVIOUS QUESTIONS completely addressed during a presidential debate? Maybe I'm more concerned than the average bear, or maybe I'm not.
1) We're not told as the American public HOW the Presidential Candidates will solve the U.S. economic "stagflation".
2) I decided to look for some kind of US global ranking today, to numerically see where we stood relative to other nations. But then I rebuked my own questioning thinking, "A number isn't going to tell me how rough things might get". The family investment portfolio has dropped quite a bit these past few months and I'm not the only one who's watching their life savings blow down the drain.
MEANWHILE:
The media doesn't like to talk complete financial realities --
- Corporate America is outsourcing 24,000 American jobs just from Hewlett Packard alone, after they completed a multi-hundred billion dollar merger. They told their employees they were struggling last year. And other companies aren't far behind.
- Our Gross Domestic Output (productivity) is far less than foreign consumption (imports) -- true for sometime now
- Lehman Brothers filed for bankruptcy and AIG was bailed out
- The Feds offered their help (for as much as they could)
- Most of my life-long friends were hit by the latest Texas hurricane
- We have FEMA housing our hurricane refugees on the white sands of damaged shores, situated somewhere in-between cow pastures and jails, not including the 3 million who migrated across the U.S. in search of new life because of hurricane Katrina.

It takes a bit of business schooling to read this stuff. More obviously, many of us can surmize we're logically in some trouble nationwide. If you read a few pages and find you're yawning, then try reading Bill Cosby's advice offered below my signature.
Warning: there are tidbits in Cosby's message even I found offensive...and I'm fairly
forgiving regarding the worst of human habits.
Thanks and Take Good Care,

Bill Cosby's (Write-Me-In-On Your Ballot) --
I HAVE DECIDED TO BECOME A WRITE-IN CANDIDATE.
HERE IS MY PLATFORM:
(1) 'Press 1 for English' is immediately banned. English is the official language; speak it or wait at the border until you can.
(2) We will immediately go into a two year isolationist posture to straighten out the country's attitude. NO imports, no exports. We will use the 'Wal-Mart's policy, 'If we ain't got it, you don't need it.'
(3) When imports are allowed, there will be a 100% import tax on it.
(4) All retired military personnel will be required to man one of our many observation towers on the southern border. (six month tour) They will be under strict orders not to fire on SOUTHBOUND aliens.
(5) Social security will immediately return to its original state. If you didn't put nuttin' in, you ain't gettin' nuttin' out. The president nor any other politician will not be able to touch it.
(6) Welfare - Checks will be handed out on Fridays at the end of the 40 hour school week and the successful completion of urinalysis and a passing grade.
(7) Professional Athletes --Steroids - The FIRST time you check positive you're banned for life.
(8) Crime - We will adopt the Turkish method, the first time you steal, you lose your right hand. There is no more life sentences. If convicted, you will be put to death by the same method you chose for your victim; gun, knife, strangulation, etc.
(9) One export will be allowed; Wheat, The world needs to eat. A bushel of wheat will be the exact price of a barrel of oil.
(10) All foreign aid using American taxpayer money will immediately cease, and the saved money will pay off the national debt and ultimately lower taxes. When disasters occur around the world, we'll ask the American people if they want to donate to a disaster fund, and each citizen can make the decision whether it's a worthy cause.
(11) The Pledge of Allegiance will be said every day at school and every day in Congress.
(12) The National Anthem will be played at all appropriate ceremonies, sporting events, outings, etc.Sorry if I stepped on anyone's toes but a vote for me will get you better than what you have, and better than what you're gonna get.
Thanks for listening, and remember to write in my name on the ballot in November.
God Bless America !!!!!!!!!!!
Bill Cosby!!!!!!!!
