We are all witnessing drama of Goldman family and father of Sean Goldman who is struggling to get a custody on his son Sean. Sean was kidnaped by his “mother” and is living today with her and his step father in Brazil and that’s probably only reason (international dimension) why this case got so much media attention.
Regarding Sean Goldman I would say: YES - Of course he should be returned to his father and that should happen immediately. However this wont be easy to achieve because Sean Goldman case is loaded with heavy backfire on America thanks to American heavy support and favoring of feminism. Tens of millions of children are "kidnaped" from their fathers here in United States and that kidnaping is legalized with so called "restraining order" that woman can arrange just like that - within a finger snap. Nobody here is helping those fathers and those children to reunite but in fact our agencies continue brutal emotional and financial terror on fathers and have them and children live in emotional and psychological struggle. All of them justify that behavior with a phrase:"That's the way it works". Oh, you think so? Are you sure? Obviously nothing works “way it works”.
Today we have paradoxical situation where our President Obama have to ask President of Brazil to urge Brazil Justice Department to not to do something what American Justice Department is doing every single day and probably every single hour in their Courts. Not only Sean Goldman, but all kids should be returned to their fathers and their homes in basically all cases where woman runs away.
Fatherhood and Men's issues are only 1 segment where the problem is clearly visible and recognizable. The volume of the actual damage to the entire society caused by today's family and divorce law is far more bigger then most of the people understand at this point. My book "Family Testament" say's a lot about that and through the autopsy of modern society unveils numerous crimes, illegal and paralegal activities made by so called "family agencies" and other radical feminist groups that together creating most dangerous parasitical symbioses in our society.
I wish to Mr. Goldman and his family all the best to get Sean back as soon as possible, to the only place where he really belongs - next to his father.
I also hope that American Legislators and Justice department learn something out of this case and consider what they are going to do with tens of millions of “Sean Goldman’s” here in United States of America.

No longer content to sit on the sidelines and talk back at the commentators on MSNBC about the idiocy and dirty tricks of the Republican party, today I applied to be a Deputy Field Organizer for the Obama campaign in a battleground state.
Because I believe in transparency in processes like these, I am publicly offering my answers to the application questions. Here is what I wrote in my application:
Do you enjoy working with and talking to a diverse group of people? Can you give an example of an experience where you have done this?
I have worked with, and spoken to, diverse groups of people as a former newspaper reporter (in the Hudson Valley), high school English and history teacher, college adjunct English professor (Baruch College, City University of New York--extremely diverse) and as a manager for a Fortune 100 financial services company.
Moreover, my educational background is in philosophy and American history, so I am well-versed in the political philosophies and histories of the two parties.
Why are you personally motivated to be involved in this campaign?
This country is at a tipping point in its history. As a former history teacher, I know that this is the single most important Presidential election since 1932--Hoover vs. Roosevelt. The crisis we face now is on par with the one the country faced 76 years ago.
I was a Hillary supporter and, frankly, was initially disappointed that she didn't get the nomination. However, once I saw Barack speak at the DNC, I knew that he had the VISION this country needs right now. (His speech sounded like an Inaugural Address, not an acceptance speech.) In Obama, I see the ability to get people excited about government again. Like TR, FDR, Kennedy and Clinton, Obama is giving people hope in the future and the sense that change is on the horizon.
I am too smart, too experienced, and too capable to sit on the sidelines. As a teacher, reporter and, today, freelance corporate speechwriter, I have peered into the lives of people from all socioeconomic backgrounds, and I understand the challenges they all face. I regularly come up with strategy ideas for the Obama campaign, and I no longer want to sit on the sidelines complaining or being a critic. I want to act. I want to lead.
The Republicans CANNOT win this election. I think the fear of another four years of a Republican White House is what's motivating me more than anything to get involved. If this happened and I hadn't been involved in helping the Obama campaign, I would not be able to live with myself.
Finally, as a hired gun (freelance) corporate speech- and script-writer with no children, no crushing mortgage to pay and no daily, 9-5 commitments, I have the time and flexibility needed to get involved--time and flexibility that a lot of men my age (38) don't have. Simply put, I have no excuses.
After you complete Camp Obama, you will work as a Deputy Field Organizer in a battleground state to ensure that Barack has enough votes to win that community. What skills do you think it will take to be effective in that position?
To be an effective Deputy Field Organizer, I think a person will need to be good at listening to, and persuading, people one-on-one. I think he will need a great deal of persistence (something that, as a fiction writer, I have in abundance) and be able to hear "No" a lot. I think he will need to be adaptable and a good motivator.
She will need to be able to write well and offer volunteers leadership on what to do next, whether it's cold-calling, canvassing, hosting events or getting out the vote. She will need energy and optimism. She will need to understand the issues and understand the "Obama Blueprint for Change" inside and out.
What specific skills will you bring to the battleground state you volunteer in?
Speechwriting, public speaking, managing people, strategic & creative thinking, teaching, web development, knowledge of U.S. history and the Constitution, knowledge of political philosophy and understanding of the electoral process.
Do you have a car you can use while volunteering on the campaign?
Yes.
I believe I am more than qualified to be a Deputy Field Organizer, but we shall see. I'll update my blog when/if I hear from the Obama people.
The Free Cuba Film Series creates global unity.
The American public continues to speak out, wanting to see Cuba.
10 New screening locations in one week and growing fast!
Premiering tomorrow, Saturday, September 6th at 6PM in
Beverly Hills, CA - Fine Arts Theatre -
Journalist and other members of the media are speaking out for Max Lesnik,
the focus of the documentary "The Man of Two Havana's" in the Free Cuba Films Series.
Mr. Lesnik had lived his journalistic career with death threats, political warfare
and multiple bombing against his Magazine, family and his life.
All simply because he spoke/speaks out for America uniting with Cuba verse avoiding our neighbors.
"It's overwhelming clear the majority of the American population wants to unite with Cuba."
Filmmaker Luis Moro.
The first film in the series is, Cuba's Love and Suicide, a true love story set in Havana;
the second film, Havana KidZ, is the kid's version of Buena Vista Social Club;
the third film, The Man of Two Havana's, delivers true accounts of the direct family relationship between
U.S. politicians, Cuban-American terrorist and Fidel Castro.
The evening is an entertaining, uplifting and an educationally revealing experience.
The films bring audiences into the real Cuba with their own eyes.
What's good, Obama fanatics?
Let me make this short: My name is Kevin Limiti and I support Obama for a number of reasons.
1. He is well spoken and has the ability to unite this country
2. He is young and therefore the least likely to be corrupt of all the candidates.
3. He has sensible stances on many issues, even though I sometimes go much further then he would.
and finally
4. He is a vote for change. The fact that we are voting for a black president is, in itself a change. I want to send a message that we can change the fabric of this nation, to make it a better place for myself and one day, hopefully, my children.
With that aside, I am 18 years old and a full-time student. Despite my age, I've actually been studying politics for three years and am well informed on a variety of subjects. I don't consider myself a "liberal" or anything else, but my stances do tend to lean to something of a libertarian socialist posistion (the names libertarian and socialist have become somewhat tainted over the years unfortunately).
I consider myself a serious writer. I have been featured in Writersbeat.com's online magazine called 'In Pencil' for prose, and I have aspirations of doing this full-time. I also play guitar and am a fan of Various punk bands such as Rancid and the Dropkick Murphys, as well as folk artists such as Pete Seeger and Bob Dylan. Other things I enjoy include lifting weights, watching MMA, watching anime, and browsing internet forums.
I smoke marijuana and I don't apologize for it. I was very happy to see that Obama has taken a sensible posistion on the war and drugs and will not lock me in jail for something that I consider harmless, as well as very relaxing and enjoyable. Hopefully, he will continue to keep this strong stance because although decriminalization isn't a very popular political strategy, it is the honest and sane one.
Now for a few shameless plugs:
Please visit writersbeat.com I do not own or work for this website, but its a place where one of my works has been featured and if you want to read more of what I've written, it's a great place to start ;)
My email address is CitizenKane2601@yahoo.com in case you want to ask me a question or comment on something. I love getting email so don't hesitate.
That's about it.
DON'T COMPROMISE ON THE ISSUES.
We need to aim higher, people. In a few years, much can be achieved. For starters, let's get Obama elected.
This is Kevin Limiti signing out.
Thanks to a posting from African Americans for Obama. I had an opportunity
to see Alice Walker's podcast endorsing Barack. Wow ! she spoke so eloquently
that I was near tears. Fantastic!
As I read more and more about Obama, I sincerely believe that he IS the person that can heal not only our country's standing in the world but can approach the problems of the world in a more thoughtful and inclusive manner. We, as Americans NEED this pivotal person to lead us away from the 'old boys' network of politics.
I know Mr.Obama is not an isolationist.
I know Mr. Obama's philosophy incorporates a more holistic worldview.
I respect his apparant integrity and worldview. My hope is for YOU, Mr. Obama!
