A few years ago Al Gore released his movie / book aptly named “An Inconvenient Truth.” Hardly anyone desires to know the world as-we-know-it is ceasing to exist in a condition suitable to human sustainability. We’re on the fast-track to extinction, but one wouldn’t know it listening to major media or pandering politicians. Gore’s film failed to gain the notoriety of “Star Wars” or “Avatar.” The only horror/adventure movies that do sell are fiction. Human nature tunes out imminent danger – at least of the factual. Imagining myths is convenient; reality is not.

To solve problems, one must first seek to find the root cause and then deal with it openly, firmly, and with resolve. The primary reason conflict lingers for years is because established leaders refuse — or are incapacitated due to ideology or lobbyist-induced incentive — to recognize sources of contention.

Obama’s overarching code is his greatest weakness. The conundrum is – his core guiding principle, however ineffective in building a lasting legacy, crutches his personal popularity even among policy foes. The Koch brothers can’t spend enough, Karl Rove can’t undermine enough, and the GOP can’t demonize enough to Nixonize Obama. His Teflon personality...

It’s a massive implosion the whole world notices except for the few combatant principals at close proximity to ground zero: Washington DC. America is now engaged in a different kind of war, an unnecessary sort, that has the potential to bring down the whole house, resulting in a premature finale to the grand experiment [as the republic was affectionately referred to since inception]. We are witnesses to national suicide in progress.

Although Barack Obama won a decisive victory in the 2012...
