[RC] Unity08 Political Platform -First version, open for discussion

David :
Sort of what I thought you'd say. Well, OK, if there at least are a few  ideas
you find worthwhile, that would be good. 
 
If you want to blast away at ideas you dislike, fine with me, though.
Maybe I could learn a thing or two from some solid criticisms.
 
You are a "reality check" for me.
 
Cheers
Billy

I e-mailed it to the office and I will print it  there. You have some 
goodies, and some, well, that I'm not too fond of.

Three days of work went into the document, plus some unknown 
amount of time here and there, digging up stuff from the Web in
which various people of different political persuasions offered 
platform plank ideas. Much other material on hand but I'm out of
time for today to make good use of it all.  Lots of bright  suggestions.
 
The exercize was well worth the effort, it really made me think  and
apply a good deal of self criticism to some of the ideas I came  into
the project with. Not everyone will be happy with everything, but
what else is new ? At least it exists now and can be used as  focus
for discussion at some point.
 
You are right about the need for a summary. But what's an
"executive summary" ?  Am I now CEO of Billy Rojas , Inc ?
Have you been promoted to a corner office at Apple ?
 
Cheers
Billy

Hi  Billy,  


Wow!  A bit much to digest, and few things to quibble over, but  quite a lot 
to admire.  I'll try to find some time next week to read  through it.


Great work,
-- Ernie P.


P.S. I think we'll need an executive summary at some point...

Many of the  proposals in the platform are original to Billy Rojas, but  most 
 reflect  
the ideas  of others, too numerous to mention, but including  Dr Ernest 
Prabhakar,
Mark Satin,  and  -despite my disagreements  with him, some of which are 
serious and
some of  which of date back many years-   Newt Gingrich, who, no matter  what 
anyone
says, is  one of  America's smartest political minds. This said, almost every 
borrowed  idea
has  been  considerably modified here, in some cases  drastically.
