It is widely known that the Automakers that the taxpayers assisted at the beginning of the year are determined to pay the money back. In fact, these payments are supposed to begin being made in less than three months; the first installment at One Billion dollars.
Since our citizens are in great need of employment, how about our American Automaker’s make their first payments in the form of creating manufacturing jobs to begin re-hiring this segment of our American workers!
As a result of all the events that have happened during the last two years, our citizens have become highly aware of how important it is to purchase American made products; which was clearly demonstrated during the, “Cash for Clunkers,” programs that occurred less than a couple of months ago. The sales of American made automobiles, was so rapid that our Automakers’ actually generated profits during this time of recession!
Although, taking this action won’t produce the millions of jobs that are needed to secure and rebuild all of our citizen’s lives; our workers in the manufacturing industry will begin to be stabilized, along with the communities that they live in. Then while these positive events are occurring, we can continue finding other solutions to establish additional jobs for our United States citizens.
Meanwhile, our Leader’s can also start encouraging us to purchase American made products whenever we can. And our News programs and other Television shows can begin developing and airing Public Interest segments to let us know about the businesses in our communities that have created and are selling American made products.
So, instead of sending our Taxpayer’s repayment check to the Capitol, our Automakers can insert those tax-dollars directly back into our economy. Creating this kind of Policy also paves the way for the re-emergence of a significant aspect of our Heritage – and provides our Automakers with an open door to reassert themselves as active members within our society and rise up in the support of our citizen’s advancement and well-being; while adding to and benefiting our countries growth.
Perhaps, by utilizing this method for our Automakers to pay the taxpayers back, we can also give ourselves the opportunity to regain some of our innocence, by restoring and re-establishing our foundation of taking care of our citizens first and watching out for each other again.
A Website For The People
Recently, our President talked about our country’s need for job creation and advancement of American Businesses. This is a suggestion about how we can make that happen by working together. A suggestion of a way that we can generate rapid job growth for our citizens and develop customers for our businesses, both large and small, (and even new and emerging businesses are included), and has the capacity to refill the coffers of our Nations Communities.
This Website concept has been created, then developed to be inclusionary of all American’s – those who already have established businesses and for those who are at the beginning stages of turning their dreams into reality and starting emerging businesses of their own.
It is common knowledge that small business develops 71% of our jobs and that large businesses have assisted in forming strong and stable foundations within our communities for generations. Both are healthy aspects of our nation.
Although, I realize that this concept has the capacity to develop great earnings, it will take me much longer to assemble the individuals required to transform this Website Concept into reality – than it will take our leaders and various experts; and jobs for our citizens and business growth is needed now.
I have additional ideas for the development and enhancement of this Website. And a large portion of the earnings from the Memberships of the Website itself is intended to used to extend additional assistance to our citizens, in the form of Small Business Grants and Scholarships for our country's Students. And of course, the Website will be self-supporting.
At this point, my focus is on finding ways to uplift our citizens, stabilize our businesses, and increase the steady growth of our communities. We have the technology to achieve this goal and develop the win-win world that we know we can create. And, you know where I stand, determined to uphold a positive approach.
Personally, I trust our President and I know we can!

Website Concept By: Suellis Kelley -- August 6, 2009©
All Rights Reserved For “The People”*
(* See, Additional Information.)
New Website – While reading an article this morning, a concept came to my mind that I think could draw the interest of our people; a new kind of Website that creates jobs for our citizens, revenue for our Businesses and a new fast-paced tax-base system for our American Communities. Please, be patient with the long description; as there are many components that build on each other to make this Website a profitable, attractive, and enjoyable asset that develops rapid job creation, flourishing businesses and uplifts our Nation’s Communities.
Business Idea: This is a website idea that has the potential to develop regular visitors, educate us about our Nations many Cities and their surrounding Communities and expand our cultural understanding of each other. Additionally, for folks who enjoy traveling and visiting other places in our country, (and the world), they will be enabled to do so from the comfort of their own homes. This concept is easy to expand and during this discussion, I will refer to this New Website as Travel@Home.com or “The People’s” Website. This Website also has the ability to open the doors of our businesses, which is discussed at length in the Website Experience section. (For clarification: Travel@Home.com is not an actual Website at this time nor is it an email address).
Basic Concept: Relax for a moment and picture in your mind one community that you have lived in during your life. As you remember, “see” the streets, the neighborhoods, the parks, the libraries and the stores, as you “travel through town.” Now, include the surrounding countryside, the mountains, the creeks, and other areas that exist at that location. The People’s Website offers our American Citizens the opportunity to regularly go to their hometowns or travel to places that they would like to visit.
The Television Travel Programs that are frequently available on our Public Broadcasting Stations, KPBS, (which is associated with UCSD), already has a lot of video that shows various communities and the neat attractions, businesses and scenic views of particular locations in our nation. This video can be edited to create a seamless view of many of our communities and landmark areas. (Other T.V. Channels also have collections of Video that show many of our Nations communities and focuses on the unique and magnificent architecture of the various buildings that were developed during the 18th and 19th Century’s. There are also Video Travel Logs of our communities and those in Foreign Nations as well. However, while starting up the Website the initial focus will be on the Communities within America).
For Example:
In San Diego, there have already been numerous television projects created that focus on various communities and suburbs, such as, Old Town, the Gas Lamp District, and even Little Italy. There are places and buildings in these communities that still attract hundreds of thousands of tourists every year because of their unique history and architectural design. By combining these clips in a seamless way, the city of San Diego, can be created for the Website; and then, offered to citizens throughout our nation, as a Travel Destination. This idea can easily be extended to develop other communities as well.
Once an Individual becomes a Member of The Peoples Website, they can select a community and then “Travel” through the town, and visit the stores, museums and other areas where they are encouraged to shop and see the sites. Or, they can join with family members and friends, (who also become Website Members), and spend a day at the World’s Largest Mall. (Once the basic configuration and design of the Website Travel Area’s are developed, the options for Travel Locations will also expand to include additional communities).
Many people love to travel and go back to places where they have lived before; but, for whatever myriad of reasons, just haven't had the opportunity or time to literally travel. Members will be provided the opportunity to pick one community, then “travel there and visit” that community for a year, for the Standard Membership Fee. When individuals become active members – they can choose to visit a community where they previously lived or visited; as well as select places to visit that they have always wanted to go to or visit exotic locations that they always wanted to explore, (the Grand Canyon, Big Sur, or our National Parks). An additional bonus for some individuals is that this Website can assist people “to see” the places where they intend to go in the future, in order to acclimate themselves with the location and plan their itinerary, before they arrive.
Membership: The charge for a Standard Membership Fee would be $20.00 to visit one town or city for a year and this fee also provides easy access and the ability for ‘On-Line Tourists” to shop at and visit various Stores, Museums and Historical Sites, as well. Additionally, Schools, Colleges, and Universities could also become involved by offering special membership packages for their Alumni and others to attend their events, via Webcasts and other options. This can assist in raising revenues to develop new projects, scholarships and other learning opportunities for their students, (see Website Experience #2 for further explanation). Of course, Museums, Historical Sites and schools can develop Special Membership Packages and make them available at their front doors for On-Line Tourists to purchase.
Other options or combination's of various travel packages can be developed for those who desire to extend their Travel@Home.com opportunities. For Example: A Membership Package of, “Three Destinations for $45,” or a “World Traveler Rate” can be developed for individuals, who want the flexibility to visit any or all of the numerous locations that the Website offers during a single year.
Website Experience:
The following are brief explanations of what a Travel@Home.com Member experiences when entering the Website.
For Example: After a Member selects a community to visit – they will click on the link and enter the town or city, where the, “Welcome Sign,” is already displayed. Then, they can click to immediately go to Main Street or take a Scenic Tour through the area.
1. When on Main Street – from the perspective of walking down the sidewalks; if an On-Line Tourist “see’s” a store that interests them, (these stores and shops are the ones that literally exist), they can either:
a. Click to enter and browse – looking at the shelves and seeing the ambiance, character and basic environment. (Naturally, cash register placement, doors, and other things will be removed from the view of the ‘Home Travelers.’)
b. Or, click to enter an area where there are photos and a list of the items that our members have “seen” and are available for purchase and shipping directly to their homes.
aa. This provides the businesses within our Nations communities to expand their consumer base and provides for our citizens easy access to purchase those neat little items that we like to collect when we are literally traveling throughout our country.
bb. The Business will of course gain profits, while a percentage of the earnings or the taxes will go into the Community Chest to assist the town in building up their towns and cities.
cc. Additionally, a small percentage or fee could go to create a fund for business grants and pay for the employees running the Travel@Home.com Website itself. (This is to be determined later).
c. Of course, the various Business Owners would be responsible for the hiring of their own employees to provide the shipping and handling for their products to their customers and an individual to keep their shops items, sales and discounts up to date. For a minimal monthly fee, they hire a Travel@Home.com Webmaster to input the ongoing updated information. (To be discussed in further detail later: perhaps, just keeping the current Webmasters apprised of the monthly sales and new products offered, can provide for the organization of the Website itself).
The general upkeep and information regarding the changes within the various States communities, (new buildings, new businesses and other land use transitions), could be sent by the communities Chamber of Congress to the Webmasters, who are assigned to their State, so that everything remains up to date and consistent.
2. When an individual purchases a year-pass, becomes member and an On-Line Tourist of a community, (because of the technology that has been developed), they can be enabled to have an “overview’ or “side-view,” as they “walk” from one distention to the next. This will enable people to enjoy seeing and visiting the other areas and places within the community.
a. For Example:
After an On-Line Tourist has shopped in the downtown area, they can head over to a museum, art show or go to another event that is available or is literally happening in the community at the time and pay whatever the regular fee is to attend. (The communities themselves can provide some Sample Give Away visits or attendance to events within a community by providing additional membership offers; which can be determined later).
Along with the Museums, Historical Sites and other public areas of interest; Theater Groups, Colleges and schools could also offer admission to the events that they frequently present. (Of course, these complimentary memberships can be offered at discounted rates, based on the decisions of the people in charge of the activities).
Members can literally attend the activities as they are occurring by clicking on a live Web-Cast option, which would take them to a place to purchase a ticket that would give them access to the Web-Cast. This can enable On-Line Community Members to experience a, “Night on the Town,” participate in activities they enjoy and assist the various organizations within our Nations communities, (their own Hometowns), to raise revenues.
b. I am certain many Alumni of various Schools, Colleges and University’s throughout our Nation would love this option, as a way to visit their Hometown, (or the communities that they have lived in previously and feel connected to), and continue to remain active participants by attending various social events via Web-Cast, (such as, a School Play or Sporting Event). This also gives our Members the ability to continue to support the growth and well-being of the communities that they care about; when they have moved to another location.
c. Each Institution, Store, or Organization could establish and design their own ticket-fee systems for citizens to obtain Complimentary Memberships to participate in the events they present and that appear on the Travel@Home.com Website. For Example: Members could buy a pass that gives them admission to attend 10 Basketball Games during the College Season… Or, they could purchase an additional Passport to go to the Town’s Museums, whenever they like. (Obviously, these kinds of options can be expanded to include other organizations and activities).
d. Additionally, many communities maintain a schedule of annual activities, such as, The Fourth of July Parade, The Celebration of May Day, or even the yearly Lighting of the Christmas Tree in the Town Square. Participation in these events can uplift the spirits of Website Members and make them feel included. Perhaps, this open access can also elicit celebratory shopping during the activities or before to prepare themselves for these occasions.
3. As many of us have experienced, there are also small businesses within each of our communities that are in the initial stages of development. Artist’s and Individuals, who are gifted with various talents and are good at creating Crafts and artwork -- and inventors, who develop products and typically begin building their customer-base by word of mouth, also can be included.
Permanent Art Shows and Craft Fairs can be created to offer and display original works of art, and one of a kind, handcrafted products for the On-Line Tourists to see, purchase, and personally own. Collecting unique items and inventions used to be a trend within our society. People enjoyed owning one of kind products in their homes and often showed their guests their, “Conversation Pieces,” when they visited. These Specialized Shops and Emerging Businesses could be developed in a variety of ways and have especially appointed Webmasters, who singularly focus on these areas to keep the items up to date, as new works of art and crafts are created and included in the displays.
a. The Emerging Businesses could be set-up in a, “Specialized Shopping District” -- which could be “built” on an unused area of land in the existing town. As an indicator of the “Virtual City,” when the On-Line Tourist enters the area they can be greeted with a similar, “Welcome Sign,” like the one that they saw when they initially entered the community. And by adding placards, the On-Line Tourists is provided information about how the community was developed and is able to learn about the various artists and inventors, as well.
Actually, the History’s about how the existing stores in the town or cities were developed and a biography about the original and current owner can be made available at the “doors” of the shops themselves, (for both established and emerging businesses). Additionally, for those who are offering hand produced Artwork, Music, and Crafts; these biographies could also provide information about their business, their education, and personal history. (This idea can be expanded to include information about the histories and owners of the businesses in the community; and share details and fun facts about the town itself, (suburb or city), the museums, the schools and other organizations within the community).
b. This also assists the people that live and work within the communities themselves. As it encourages and provides an easy way for individuals and other business owners to discover, who in their community has products that they would like to sell. Established Business owners can order the items to sell in their own stores for commission or order a large quantity of what our Emerging Business owners have invented, produced or sell – such as C.D.’s, Quilts, or Jewelry… or even new products that haven’t been offered to our citizens before… ect. (For additional information, see Website Experience, #8.
c. The area, where the Specialized Shops and Emerging Businesses are made accessible for the On-Line Tourist’s, can be developed to match the existing architecture of the Town; such as the houses, the parks, the Museums, and other sites as well.
d. Also, another form of Business can be created, by utilizing video and editing techniques. Some folks have large collections of items that fit into a particular category – such as, 9,000 different styles of Pez Dispensers, or various depictions of a favorite animal, or a home that is filled with Christmas Decorations… etcetera. These individuals could be included in the Specialized Shop area to allow citizens to see, appreciate, and enjoy viewing their large collections – for a minimal fee).
e. For individuals who produce various media programs; such as the interview format or variety and talent shows for a regular Webcasts or other Television medium – such as Public Broadcasting Channels – can also open Specialized Shops to sell DVD’s of their programs. An area can be developed, where the On-Line Tourist is encouraged to click on a link, in order to view a short preview of the program that they are interested in purchasing. The expansion of is technology can include additional previews and promote the sales of movies, songs, books and other forms of media.
f. By developing another Member category, collectors can sign up for a membership that only allows them access to The Specialized Shop and Emerging Business areas in each community.
4. As a result, of the seamless visuals of the location, our visitors are empowered to “walk,” (visually), through neighborhoods – the visitor will see and experience the ambiance of our communities. And since the Historical Sites can have open door policy’s, this gives our citizens a wonderful way to have the “on-site” experience of seeing with their own eyes the places where our Founding Fathers and former leaders spent their time and developed the concepts that have been applied to our lives.
The Hometown Tourist can get a close up view of the Place and Desk, where Thomas Jefferson wrote parts of our Declaration of Independence. We could see the interior of the Houses where various Presidents grew up or we could travel through the Rocky Mountains to see first hand the expeditions of Lewis and Clark. Additionally, those who are interested in our Environment, they can take a trip up to the North Pole and see the Glaciers, wildlife and communities themselves. This can assist us in expanding our understanding of America’s History and develop appreciation for our unique country as a whole.
5. Another aspect that is a plus for some Members is having an area where they can keep a Journal of their visits and log their activities, experiences, and thoughts as they visit their selected communities. Perhaps, this area could include sections that allow the member to show what they purchased, where they went, and what they did; and provide a way to keep track of the events they attended and display the other memorabilia that they collected as they traveled to different communities offered by the Website.
6. In addition, this Website can provide individuals, who are planning to go on vacation, to visit the community -- “On-Line” -- before they arrive to acclimate to the location and assist them with planning their itinerary.
7. Of course, this idea could be expanded by working with the Leaders of Foreign Nations to include their favored cities as well. And naturally, we could invite citizens in other Nations to become On-Line Tourists and visit America’s larger cities and major attractions too.
8. Additionally, individuals could be offered a discounted membership package to become On-Line Tourists in the communities where they currently live. This could open up access and another avenue for individuals to provide further support for their own hometown community events or cities businesses, Non-Profit Organizations and other social activities – such as support of our theaters, museums, and historic land-sites. This could also open doors for the leaders of community humanitarian causes to create various events or provide entertaining and informative videos to educate the general public about what they are doing and to generate further resources and expand their outreach programs.

Travel@Home.com is not an actual Website at this time nor is it an email address.
This has happened before, yet at this time it is important that I mention what has been occurring. When I go to the site to donate, after the submission, the next page appears and asks that I add email addresses of individuals that I know who care about, want and support the Public Option as well. Then after happily submitting their names, the prompter came back and informed me that one of the email addresses I entered is incorrect. So, I went through the list and examined the email addresses I added. They were all correct. In fact, I receive emails from these citizens regularly. So, I resubmitted the addresses again; and the same thing happened.
In an effort to discover which email address was being unrecognized, this time I methodically erased one name at a time to see if any would go through. But, kept receiving the same message. Then just to make certain, I entered one email address from an individual that I had just received an email from and it was unrecognized as well. I wondered why is this happening?
Then I thought, Wow! We are doing much better than even we imagine! Without the ability to rapidly expand and reach out and empower others; we are still achieving tremendous success, (over 300,000 calls in one day), going about it in the old-fashioned way! This just tells us how determined the Everyday Man and Woman are to create and develop the Public Option and secure Real Medical Care for all of our citizens!
Become a Citizen Lobbyist!
Wow, Good News sure travels fast! Just a few days ago, while with a small group – the subject of the Lobbyist influence in Washington, D.C. was mentioned. Of course, it started as a discussion about what most of us are already aware of and many of us have talked about with our own family, friends, and neighbors.
“How can we, as citizens, continue to be heard without having our own Lobbyists to represent us?” As we well know, some people are hired to talk with our leaders and tell them what their desires are and what they need to continue growing and reaching beyond expectations. “Wouldn’t it be great if America’s Citizens had people like that?!” – was the sentiment expressed. Yet, we do!
We have us! Okay, we might not have the fancy job-title that hired Lobbyist’s do -- however, we do have desires and needs, access to a telephone and the heart to speak out passionately on behalf of restoring the health of our families, communities, and nation. And, we can easily find out the phone numbers of our Representatives and Congress Members; both at the Capitol and at their office’s in our hometowns, (or the nearest city).
Then, during the creation of our 21st Century Legislation – while they are focusing on each area and developing new rules and laws to benefit our lives – we can give them a call to tell them our position. Additionally, when a subject is being addressed in an area that we know a lot about, because we work in the field or are recipients of the services and directly affected; we already have developed clear ideas about what is needed to improve our health, rekindle our growth, and surpass all expectations.
For those of us who have created solutions to revive and uplift our public purpose programs and social infrastructure -- we can ask for their fax numbers, and then send in our Plans or share our hard-earned insights! (Or, for the computer literate, go to their Websites and post your thoughts; then send emails to all of your friends)!
And considering that there are only a few hundred hired Lobbyists and millions upon millions of us, Citizen Lobbyists, types; by joining our efforts and making weekly calls, (which takes approximately five to twenty minutes, depending on how many of our leaders you contact); we can make certain that our views are expressed, represented and known. Yes, We Can Do This! We Can Be Heard!
The History of “Universal Health Care”
Part One – An Introduction
Our Great Grandparents were big dreamers and believed that if we researched and really applied ourselves, that by the year 2000, we could, (and eventually would), “discover cures for every disease in the world!” Considering that Alex Fleming’s discovery of the first antibiotic, (penicillin in 1928), wasn’t made readily available, until 1946; and that the first immunization, Jonas Salk’s Polio Vaccination, wasn’t developed until 1955 – this just shows how quickly our medical knowledge has grown and how ambitious our Great Grandparents were as well. As these initial discoveries only served to ignite our imaginations, wet our appetites and spurned our ambition to find more solutions.
In those days, our understanding about Medical Science was still very primitive and as a result, we had few medications and even less technology. And although, medicine and medical practices have been around since the beginning of mankind; during the initial development of the first structured Medical System, some of us still associated the science with nutty professors, witch doctors and other images that made us laugh. After all, medicine was basically an unexplored territory, which was originally started, managed and primarily financed by our churches – the mission to take care of people and all – it was a natural fit.
We also knew that in the past, medical research was done and cures were found at the request of a King; and inevitably, developments in Medical Science was restricted to what he was interested in discovering, as the result of his own health and that of his family. However, in America, we weren’t tied to those restraints and since our, Declaration of Independence, clearly states that all men, (and women), are created equal, our Great Grandparents decided to get as close as possible to creating and manifesting this ideal way of living for all of us. So, our Great Grandparents, desiring to breathe life into the words of our Founding Fathers, looked toward the future and dreamed about what a True Democracy could be; and our Voice was nearly unanimous. We decided to demystify the science, modernize medicine, and develop the highest level of Medical Care possible; and by encouraging Everyday Citizens to become directly involved, we knew we could do it!
As a new country, we had the opportunity to build our society based on what we determined was most important and it was quickly decided that maintaining our citizen’s optimal health and increasing our longevity was essential and would also assist us in achieving our mutual long-term goals. They knew that by advancing our medical “know how” and skills and developing well equipped Hospitals that we would all be positively affected and empowered to have the strength and endurance to build our Nation and spread the concept of personal freedom and Democracy around the world.
This was the first time that a country made a full and concerted effort to develop a Medical System that was arranged to protect and take care of all of its citizens in an organized and consolidated way. In order to reach this goal, they knew that we would have to develop a strong employee base of Doctors, Nurses and Technological Staff to make finding cures, developing hospitals and innovating new technology possible. And this foundation of employee’s was going to be built by our own citizens, the “Common Man”, becoming educated and filling the positions. So they encouraged our Grandparents to enter the Medical Professions; (and this tradition of encouraging our children to become Doctor’s and Nurse’s continues today, as becoming a part of the medical establishment is considered one of the highest aspirations that an American citizen can attain.)
However, we immediately recognized that the costs for Hospitals, staffing and the creation of “Medical Miracles” were too much for one individual, business or community to pay. So, we decided to use our primary source of consolidated money – our Taxpayer Dollars – to provide for the expenses of educating students, creating Medical Technology and developing hospitals and commercial buildings for Medical Research. After all, like schools, every community wanted well-equipped Hospitals; and we knew, as our understanding of Medical Science and Health Care grew that we would want to utilize the newest Technology and benefit from what the updated innovations and new medications could provide for our families and selves.
Then our Great Grandparents decided to invent the Pharmaceutical Industry as well! To begin this exciting project, we concentrated our energies on organizing and figuring out which illnesses affected the most citizens; because developing remedies for those diseases first would assist us in strengthening and stabilizing the health of our businesses, our nation and the people. And, within a short period of time, Doctors and Nurses, who once traveled long distances by horse and buggy to a family’s home, in order to provide treatment and take care of one patient at a time, were now given the ability to assist numerous patients on a daily bases in a structured environment that supported optimal treatment. These supports frequently resulted in rapid and full recovery, so our citizens could quickly return to work and continue building up their lives and our country.
And we noticed something else as well. By providing patients with easy access to medical care that our level of productivity and longevity immediately began to increase. We also discovered that when we “catch” an illness at the beginning and provide effective treatment for the patient, the ailment doesn’t have the chance to wear the body down, so the patient’s recovery is much quicker and their physical foundation gains resiliency and is strengthened.
Yet, during the early and mid-stages of developing our new Medical Culture, because of the task and goal we set for our New Industry’s was so expansive, we understood that they were not strong enough to be self-supporting and go it alone. So, we steadfastly countered all opposition and devoutly continued using our taxes to make certain that what we knew that we could accomplish and bring into existence had the necessary resources to continue being developed and grow stronger. Additionally, to assist the growth and accelerate the advancement of these new businesses and services, our Great Grandparents and Grandparents decided to let the Industry’s sell the medications and new technology that they each created to foreign nations, who we believed would eagerly purchase the products. After all, we knew that every human being around the world is interested in preserving their health, being cured of illnesses and having the technology available to quickly and accurately diagnosis and treat their symptoms. Plus, extending the longevity of human life was considered the primary selling point.
We had faith – an inner knowing – that one day we could accomplish whatever we set our minds to do and that both the Pharmaceutical Industry and Medical Care supports – such as Technology and Hospitals, Doctor’s and Nurse’s and all aspects of Medical Care Services – would eventually be capable of financing themselves and pay their employees high wages as well. And since we, the people – us normal folks – were the ones discovering all the medicines and investing ourselves – our time, skills, devotion, imagination, faith, and money – to create the Pharmaceutical Industry and this new type of Structured Medical System; it was formally established that we had earned the American Right to benefit from what we invented, built and transformed into reality. Just as someone who cooks a good meal in their own kitchen has the right to eat what they made.
Our Great Grandparents believed that all wonderful things are possible; but, most of all they believed in their children, their grandchildren, (us) and their own capabilities. And by joining their efforts and supporting their dream – together we succeed in creating a reality that has never existed before; the ability to improve the health and increase the longevity of all individuals.
Back in our Great Grandparent’s day, they stood up with their President by electing Members into the House and Congress, who supported, helped and enabled FDR, to make incremental changes over a period of time, that have benefited our citizens, our society and Nation for generations since then. In those days, our Great Grandparents were able to establish many Rights for American Citizens, because Franklin D. Roosevelt not only wanted to hear; but really heard what we had to say. He recognized that the Everyday Citizens were the backbone of America and he also realized that we were each individuals; yet, all require basic necessities in order to achieve our mutual goals of building up our families, our communities and our Nation as well.
By standing up together, Our Great Grandparents and Grandparents accomplished, what some claimed was impossible. We became a nation of inventors and our production levels soared. Then we began to explore the Science’s to gain a better understanding of Education, Medicines and even discovered what, “makes human beings tick.” We secured the 8-hour workday. New Businesses began to be created and our Unions started to flourish. We paved our roads and developed a way to channel electricity into each of our homes. Yes, by working together and focusing on the primary goal of improving the lives of our citizens, we created a world that had never existed before.
And now, we have the rare opportunity to do that again. We have a President in office that wants to hear what we have to say. He wants to know how our lives are being affected; so that he can open doors for us, as he protects us. For many years, we have fought against the system; expending our energies in the hope that someone would listen. However, we don’t have to do that anymore to create the changes that we have been waiting for; because we now know that we share similar goals. And we saw this for ourselves during this last election. When we join together and unify our efforts, we can accomplish, what some claim is impossible; and we have a man in office that understands and cares about us and is willing to take on these challenges.
