Subject: Re: NEED A CANDIDATE FOR PRESIDENT?
I had an investor meeting with a friend who was running under the Democratic party for president and recently dropped out. His main focus was on ending the war and he went to Iraq a few times, meeting with some of the most influential leaders of the different Iraqi coalitions/tribes and with General Petraeus. It didn't go the way of his high hopes, but did allow him to discover he really didn't want to be President.
He didn't feel he had enough support from his community/family. And I thought that was because his vision wasn't inspiring and/or broad enough. I showed him yours which he really appreciated and thought was smart ... but impossible. I said you mean improbable ... but the point was it was the only vision that anyone has put out, that everyone could understand ... that has the possibility of working! He didn't want to talk politics anymore... Was tired of hearing people say impossible to him and now he had found himself saying it.
You planted the seed of groups to speak to, we'll see what sprouts.

devi, this gives me much juicy fuel that one needs to keep blasting full force in a long-term way. i'm lucky. i get quite a few of these charges almost everyday...like how the 80-year old black woman in front of a store today just lit up when she started reading the platform. people get it. it gives them hope. they know it's possible!
it's amazing that we are getting to such a guy on that level...getting the ideas in the platform to infect him, effecting him, opening new possibilities within him. getting the platform to people. that is the core of this campaign. that exposes the artificial limits that everybody [in the power game] just accepts. you and i do "the impossible" everyday...it's our bread and butter. of course the vision of society outlined in the platform is IMPOSSIBLE politically because almost everyone in politics is invested in, infected by the old ways, by the addictions of power and obscenely huge profits...the political world which depends on things NOT working. i'm a realist. i know it will be IMPOSSIBLE in that political world. but outside that political world, our vision is very practical, very doable, etc....which people get from the platform.
