Those may not be what you want at all, some seem to be peripheral to what I am referring to here, but the cause of a changing climae and the demands of increasing population over the last decades make the matter obvious, IMO.
I am unable to find the original in my own computer self-search application. I saved it years ago as a pdf. It has been referred to by a number of books. I have 10 TB of documents and it takes forever to find just one without doing several searches in a row, defining which external hard drive possesses, even though they are all connected by hub to my desktop.
Good luck. And you're welcome.
I don't think so. None of the candidates have his temperament and brilliance. Certainly Hillary and
Bernie are very smart people, but neither has the temperament or the experience from living abroad of Obama. None of the candidates do. We won't see that in 2016.Bernie is just what he is, no more or less. Refreshing to some, frustrating to those who want him to get into their boat. Like his 'support for guns' and voting against the Brady Bill (we don't have the reason on that, and his vote didn't change anything and he knew it didn't),
his support for the wasteful F-35 (which likely provided the tax base from high paying jobs working on it and built the praised waterfront in Burlington;
and he said is was going to be the F35 or something just like it as NATO wanted it would get it from us or some other nation, so why not us?),
and protecting Israel because Hamas is a danger;
and fighting ISIS, even though he disagrees on strategy with some, it is necessary.
He has his own way of looking at the world and his supporters need to understand that he is a mature, responsible politician, and not the ultra liberal they assume that a Democratic Socialist is always a pacifist, which is not true at all.
Clinton is complicated, has seen a lot, been down many paths. She has traveled the world to push women's rights and that of children, told us things we did not know and how precious what rights we do have here and is for reversing the tide. This is not getting support online, but it is in the real world. Those who support women's rights are simply not popular in the online world, our conservative nation and the World who don't want to hear what they see as an incoherent voice that profits them none, may even get in the way of their schemes.
But I think, like Bernie, that Barack and Hillary have kept true to their own principles, no matter the obstacles. They are exceedingly strong, focused individuals. And very different from each other.
There is one place where they meet in word and deed, they will give in for the public good, and that means not fooling around by not supporting or voting for the nominee of the Democratic Party.
HRC supported Obama after a brutal campaign. Sanders says he will not play the part of a spoiler and allow another right wing Republican into the White House as he sees the bigger picture. He is running against the billionaire class, has called out the Koches as much as Reid and Obama has. Hillary has to some extent, but everything she says is so in context, there are no soundbytes to make memes. I see this as her greatest weakness.
Some only see a small goal they want to attain, which will be no one's gain but the GOP.
The Democrats see people as valuable and not as liabilities on a profit and loss spreadsheet. But that's how the GOP classifies people. They twist their words to pretend they are saying other things, but their heart is not in it.
The reason they have a fetus fetish is it's their escape clause for their inhuman plans for millions, logic dictates that is what they are doing. They are killing the innocent now. So they make a fetish of the unborn, hoping to cleanse themselves and not be stained by what they are doing to us.
I can see a lot of women are not buying it and are for Hillary, since because never wavered on women's rights and fights back and cannot be talked down to by misogynists. I have considered her to be for a long time the voice of the unspoken rage of millions of women. That is why she is so hated and feared. All the stuff flung at her is a diversion. She will rock their world, they know it.
As I've said elsewhere, I won't disrespect the things people see as sympathico in HRC, ever, when I talk about Sanders. It doesn't work to change minds. Snarks and cheap shots score points online with some but don't change minds. (Not talking about you, Tarheel.)
That immature behavior just puts up walls. Our candidates don't stoop to that and if a person supports someone for POTUS, why not emulate them?
This is not a game. Real people's lives are at stake.
The GOP can't fund it without going against their Koch Daddies. But...
If they sell it as Toll Roads with the profits going to their cronies, they'll do it in a minute.That is happening state by state. It's now barely remarked upon that SCOTUS judges, governors, legislatures and Congress persons openly hobnob with and pledge allegiance to their agenda. If they don't, they are run from office one way or the other.
The Koch orders on this were laid out years ago and being enacted right now:
*“We support the eventual repeal of all taxation.”
*“We call for the dissolution of all government agencies concerned with transportation, including the Department of Transportation.”
*“We demand the return of America's railroad system to private ownership. We call for the privatization of the public roads and national highway system.”
*“We call for the privatization of the inland waterways, and of the distribution system that brings water to industry, agriculture and households.”

So, as long as they can vote within those parmeters, they'll do something. Inhofe must not have been getting his cut. Look to see him go after the GOP for what appears to be the right reasons, but in fact will lead to exactly what the Koches want.
Faced with two obstructionist GOP factions, his view will be painted by mainstream media as reasonable. This is the first trailer to the Inhofe theatre. You know, the guy who knows full well climate change is taking place, but his pockets tell him to divert attention from it:
There's a bumper sticker for that:
My Motto:
Don't Believe Everything You Think.
For those who see themselves as Oracles:

There were claims widely promoted that Gore was anti-Christian as RWNJs say all Democrats are:
Snopes posted the claim, which is not true, and explains why it isn't:
Page 342 is part of a chapter entitled "A Global Marshall Plan" and contains a discussion about publicizing the acts of companies that violate environmental rules in order to put
public pressure on them to change their ways. The only reference to religion in the entire chapter is a (supportive) paragraph about the Catholic church and contraception on page 316.
Religion in general and Christianity specifically are touched upon in Chapter 13, "Environmentalism of the Spirit," but those passages are a defense against those who charge that Judeo-Christianity's conception of humankind as having "dominion" over the earth inspires "an arrogant and reckless attitude towards nature." A paragraph on page 263 is critical of some Christians whose "prophetic vision of the apocalypse is used as an excuse for abdicating their responsibility to be good stewards of God's creation."

Excellent, succinct OP with it all in one piece. Thanks for writing it and the reply.
People who are out to hurt others can gain nothing of value from their actions, all they can do is create misery. Misery is easy to create.It's the tool of the maliciously lazy.
Happiness takes work, it is the reward for a life being well lived.
Make the choice to not let others steal your hard earned joy.
Take the negative energy they fill you with and create something beautiful.

BTW,
Republicans Forced To Admit That Obama Approved Raid On ISIS Was Successful
By Jason Easley - May, 17th, 2015
Republicans like Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) and Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL) have been forced to admit on the Sunday shows that the Obama approved raid on ISIS in Syria has been successful...
McConnell and Rubio are two of the Republicans who tried to sabotage President Obama’s foreign policy with their letter to Iran, so for Republicans to not only admit the mission was a success, but also praise the president is something that has been virtually unseen during the Obama presidency.
Reports are that the US raid in Syria has killed 32 ISIS members including four leaders. The symbolic message that the raid sends is that terrorists are not safe anywhere on this Earth. It takes an unspeakable amount of leadership for the President to authorize a mission where special operations forces are going into a territory where they have no allies on the ground.
The courage showed by those who carried out the mission is immeasurable, but they wouldn’t have been there if Obama would not have approved the mission. As much as it must drive Republicans crazy, even they are admitting that President Obama has been successful.
