Deng Xiaoping. The Architect of Modern China.

2010-04-27T22:47:00.000-07:00

Mao's legacy has produced a large amount of controversy with some focus on the failures of the Great Leap and the disasters of the Cultural Revolution, and others pointing out that the large number of deaths during the period of consolidation of power after victory in the Chinese civil war was small compared to the number of deaths caused by famine, anarchy, war, and foreign invasion in the years before the Communists took power.

The ideology surrounding Mao's interpretation of Marxism-Leninism, also known as Maoism, has influenced many communists around the world, including third world revolutionary movements such as Cambodia's Khmer Rouge, Peru's Shining Path and the revolutionary movement in Nepal. Ironically, China has moved sharply away from Maoism since his death, and most of Mao's followers regard the Deng Xiaoping reforms to be a betrayal of Mao's legacy.

The official view of the People's Republic of China is that Mao Zedong was a great revolutionary leader who made serious mistakes in his later life. In particular Mao is criticized for creating a cult of personality. In mainland China many people still consider Mao a hero in the first half of his life, but hold that he became a monster after gaining power. However, in an era where economic growth has caused corruption to increase in mainland China, there are those who regard Mao as a symbol of moral incorruptibility and self-sacrifice in contrast to the current leadership.

Mao's English interpreter Sidney Rittenberg, who remains the only American ever to be admitted into the Chinese Communist Party, was himself imprisoned in solitary confinement for a total of 16 years during the power struggles of Mao's rule.

However, in his memoir The Man Who Stayed Behind, Rittenberg states that he believes Mao never intended to cause the deaths and suffering endured by people under his chairmanship. In his remarks on the matter Rittenberg has declared that Mao "was a great leader in history, and also a great criminal because, not that he wanted to, not that he intended to, but in fact, his wild fantasies led to the deaths of tens of millions of people."

Li Rui, Mao's personal secretary, goes further and claims he was dismissive of the suffering and death caused by his policies: "Mao's way of thinking and governing was terrifying. He put no value on human life. The deaths of others meant nothing to him."

Deng Xiaoping became the core of the "second generation" of Chinese leadership. He is called "the architect" of a new brand of socialist thinking, having developed Socialism with Chinese characteristics and led Chinese economic reform through a synthesis of theories that became known as the "socialist market economy". Deng opened China to foreign investment, the global market, and limited private competition. He is generally credited with advancing China into becoming one of the fastest growing economies in the world for over thirty years and vastly raising the standard of living of hundreds of millions of Chinese.

In Mao's leadership, having failed to advance the “social productive forces” in the Great Leap Forward through the “communist wind” and the “exaggeration wind”, Deng moved from an “ultra-leftist” approach to a “pragmatic” or right opportunist approach.

In the rural areas, they allowed the peasants to have bigger private plots and sell their outputs on free markets, diverting peasants’ labour effort away from the collective work. The collective work itself was partially privatised as a result of the “contracting production to the family” policy. This new partial privatisation had led to rising inequality among peasants as well as growing corruption among the rural cadres.

In the cities, the industrial sector was reorganised to concentrate power and authority in the hands of managerial and technical experts. Bonuses and piece rates were widely introduced to promote economic efficiency, leading to a rising economic and social inequality. Then, Deng and Liu used growing disenchantment with Great Leap Forward, and gained influence within the CCP. They embarked on economic reforms that bolstered their prestige among the party technocrats and apparatus bureaucrats. Deng and Liu advocated more rightist policies, as opposed to Mao's leftist ideas.

In 1961, at the Guangzhou conference, Deng uttered what is perhaps his most famous quotation: "I don't care if it's a white cat or a black cat. It's a good cat so long as it catches mice." This was interpreted to mean that being productive in life is more important than whether one follows a communist or capitalist ideology.

Deng gradually emerged as the de-facto leader of China in the few years following Mao's death in 1976. Deng repudiated the Cultural Revolution and, in 1977, launched the "Beijing Spring", which allowed open criticism of the excesses and suffering that had occurred during the period.

Under Deng's direction, relations with the West improved remarkably. Deng traveled abroad and had a series of amicable meetings with western leaders, and became the first Chinese leader to visit the United States in 1979, meeting with President Carter at the White House.

Sino-Japanese relations also improved significantly. Deng used Japan as an example of a rapidly progressing economic power that sets a good example for China's future economic directions.

Deng continued to chair and developed the reform and opening up as the main policy, put forward the three-step suitable for China's economic development strategy within 70 years: the first step, to double the 1980 GNP and ensure that the people have enough food and clothing, was attained by the end of the 1980s; second step, to quadruple the 1980 GNP by the end of the 20th century, was achieved in 1995 ahead of schedule; the third step, to increase per capita GNP to the level of the medium-developed countries by 2050, at which point, the Chinese people will be fairly well-off and modernization will be basically realized.

The domestic social, political, and most notably, economic systems would undergo significant changes during Deng's time as leader. The goals of Deng's reforms were summed up by the Four Modernizations, those of agriculture, industry, science and technology and the military.

The strategy for achieving these aims of becoming a modern, industrial nation was the socialist market economy. Deng argued that China was in the primary stage of socialism and that the duty of the party was to perfect so-called "socialism with Chinese characteristics", and "seek truth from facts." This interpretation of Maoism reduced the role of ideology in economic decision-making and deciding policies of proven effectiveness. Downgrading communitarian values but not necessarily the ideology of Marxism-Leninism himself, Deng emphasized that "socialism does not mean shared poverty". His theoretical justification for allowing market forces was given as such:

Planning and market forces are not the essential difference between socialism and capitalism. A planned economy is not the definition of socialism, because there is planning under capitalism; the market economy happens under socialism, too. Planning and market forces are both ways of controlling economic activity."

Deng believed that no policy should be rejected outright simply because it was not associated with Mao. Deng did not object to policies on the grounds that they were similar to ones which were found in capitalist nations.

We mustn't fear to adopt the advanced management methods applied in capitalist countries (...) The very essence of socialism is the liberation and development of the productive systems (...) Socialism and market economy are not incompatible (...) We should be concerned about right-wing deviations, but most of all, we must be concerned about left-wing deviations.

There was a significant amount of international reaction to Deng's death. UN Secretary-General Kofi Annan said Deng was to be remembered "in the international community at large as a primary architect of China's modernization and dramatic economic development".

French President Jacques Chirac said "In the course of this century, few men have, as much as Deng Xiaoping, led a vast human community through such profound and determining changes";

British Prime Minister John Major commented about Deng's key role in the return of Hong Kong to Chinese control; Canadian Prime Minister Jean Chrétien called Deng a "pivotal figure" in Chinese history. The Taiwan presidential office also sent its condolences, saying it longed for peace, cooperation, and prosperity. The Dalai Lama voiced regret.

"Deng Xiaoping, was one of the 20th century's greatest men. He ended Marxist dogma, releasing the energy of his long-suffering people whose nation had been raped by Western and Japanese imperialism, then ravaged by brutal civil wars and destructive Marxist policies. Deng's innocuous-sounding dictum, "it does not matter what color a cat is as long as it hunts mice", unleashed the greatest explosion of productivity and economic growth in history."

"And in 1978 China had its first piece of great good luck in a long, long time--perhaps the first time some important chance broke right for China since the end of the Sung dynasty. China acquired as its paramount ruler one of the most devious and effective politicians of this or indeed any age, a man who was quite possibly the greatest human hero of the twentieth century: Deng Xiaoping. Deng sought to maintain the Communist Party oligarchy's control over China's politics while also seeking a better life for China's people, and he is guided by two principles: (i) be pragmatic ("what matters is not whether the cat is red or white, what matters is whether the cat catches mice), and (ii) be cautious ("cross the river by feeling for the stones at the bottom of the ford with your feet")"

Deng changed China from a country obsessed with mass political movements to a country focused on economic construction. Put into sharp contrast with Mikhail Gorbachev's glasnost and perestroika, Deng's socioeconomic model of a socialist market economy was a largely novel concept.

Great Dictator of Sri Lanka

2010-04-24T10:52:00.000-07:00

Authority Whether you like it or not, the fact is, Gotabaya Rajapaksa is the powerful dictator in Sri Lanka. Gota is the supreme and ultimate power center. Gota is the Commander-in-Chief. Gota is the Chief Executive of Sri Lanka. No court or Judge can question Gota. Gota has Unlimited Authority.

Responsibility The only responsibility he had, was the elimination of Prabhakaran. Gota effectively executed that task. Other than that Gota has no responsibility. Economic Development, Promoting Tourism, Business Development, Education - none of those are Gota's responsibility.

Accountability Gota is not accountable to any one; not even to his brother. Most of the time, Gota doesn't even consult the President, but issues orders. Gota is not accountable to the Legislative members. And Gota is not an elected member; so not accountable to the People of Sri Lanka.

International Community Gota is not the member of the cabinet. He is not answerable to UN or any other countries. He doesn't care about allegations from Human Rights, Red Cross or any other international organizations

Great Dictator of Sri Lanka Anyone with supreme authority, without any responsibilities, and not accountable to others would naturally become a dictator. Had the President not been his brother, by this time, Gota would have executed a military coup in Sri Lanka.

A military coup is an organized action by the armed forces of a country meant to overthrow and replace its government. Having enjoyed the sound of guns; salutes of the military generals; Gota will never give up all these privileges. As long as Gota is convinced that Mahinda will win the election and be the next President, he will be passive. Once Gota realizes that the chance of winning the election for Mahinda is remote then he will not hesitate to execute the military coup; even his brother Mahinda cannot stop Gota.

Pervez Musharraf became de facto Head of Government (using the title Chief Executive and assuming extensive powers) of Pakistan following a bloodless coup d'état on 12 October 1999. Compare to Pakistan, Sri Lanka is much smaller and easier for military coup.

Burma Democratic rule ended in 1962 when General Ne Win led a military coup d'état. Since then Burma is ruled by military junta. The world and UN don't question Burma. UN and others were asking so many questions about the camp and human rights in Sri Lanka. Gota may have already arrived at the conclusion to bring Sri Lanka under military rule.

Crisis of Sri Lanka Right now, the real crisis in Sri Lanka is about the constitutional authority. No one in the world knows, whether Sri Lanka is still a Democratic country or a Military state. If it's clearly declared as Military state, then the world will just keep silent, as in the case of Burma. No freedom for press in Burma; the world doesn't complain. The confusion arises only when you declare as a democratic country and act like a military one. So the current crisis is: Does Democracy exist in Sri Lanka or not?

Ineffective Leaders. They were already in power. But they didn't perform effectively. Ceasefire was a big achievement. But they didn't use that opportunity effectively for the country's development. They are good at playing the usual party politics. People of Sri Lanka do not consider them as an alternative to the President Mahinda Rajapaksa. Right now they are not effectively challenging Mahinda. Besides that, they have no freedom of speech and cannot freely express their views. They are under the constant watch of the military.

They cannot make any major breakthrough unless they pull something dramatically, just like those British politicians Clement Atlee against Winston Churchill. Slogans like, "Visit Sri Lanka", "Cheer Mahinda; Vote Ranil" and "All Citizens of Sri Lanka Are Equal." Those slogans will generate support in the international arena and bring moral and financial support from all around the world. "Visit Sri Lanka," will bring the tourists from all around the world and naturally every one will have some work for the tourists. Economy will naturally grow.

Effective President. The President Mahinda Rajapaksa very effectively eliminated Prabhakaran. People of Sri Lanka have great respects for Mahinda. He is the best President since independence.

Mahinda's biggest strength is his brother Gota; Mahinda's biggest weakness also is his brother Gota. Gota is an Effective Executive. The problem with effective executives is, they need challenges all the time. They need greater goals to achieve; they need impossible tasks to work on. If you fail to give them challenging tasks, then they will become a big nuisance and head ache.

With the elimination of Prabhakaran, the biggest military challenge is over. Had they not killed Prabhakaran, they could have continued the military operation for many more years. Gota cannot just go around every day without firing a gun. The President shall talk to his brother and suggest him to take another challenge, such as, making Sri Lanka as the Silicon Valley for the world computing; or promoting tourism; or promoting foreign relationship; or even research on Space or Nuclear Power Plant or solution for Global Warming.

It's very essential for the President to establish himself as the leader for country's development, just like Manmohan Singh. People do consider Mahinda as war hero; there is no doubt about it; but there is no more war. People need a leader for economic development. Right now, there is no respect for Sri Lanka in the international community; nobody wants to visit Sri Lanka. People may come to the conclusion that, as long as Mahinda is in power, no chance for any economic development.

Right now, the youth has only two choices in Sri Lanka. They have bright future only if they wear a uniform. They have choice in selecting their uniform; either the military or the buddhist monk. They can either become a military soldier or the buddhist monk. Men in uniform are generally slaves. Men in uniform don't innovate; They don't create wealth; They only consume wealth; They are burden to the economy. Only people enjoying freedom innovate; Innovation only creates wealth.

Mahinda has to win the confidence of the world and also the people of Sri Lanka. Mahinda can promote English and Computer. That will bring the world closer to Sri Lanka. Once the world start visiting Sri Lanka, all the petty issues based on language and religion will vanish in thin air. Just follow the India model; freedom; secular; economic development. In less than five years, Sri Lanka can become a Developed nation.

Mahinda may have bright chance to win an international award, like Nobel Peace prize. It's simple. Citizens of Sri Lanka are EQUAL. No need to mention about any language or any religion. Just make all human beings are equal.

Mao Zedong. The Great Dictator of China.

2010-04-19T22:33:00.000-07:00

source: wikipedia and other internet sites.

Mao Tse-tung, (December 26, 1893 - September 9, 1976). Mao is widely credited for creating a mostly unified China. He was criticized for economically and politically disastrous policies taken after his consolidation of power.

Mao developed many political theories. The most signficant notion was his view of peasants as the source of revolution. Traditional Marxist-Leninist theory had seen the vanguards of revolution to be urban workers, whereas Mao argued that in China's case, it was the peasant from which revolution would develop. Mao also developed a three stage theory of guerilla warfare and a concept of the people's democratic dictatorship.

Following the consolidation of power, Mao launched a phase of rapid, forced collectivization, lasting until around 1958. This included the so-called Hundred Flowers campaign, in which Mao indicated he was willing to consider different opinions about how China should be governed. Given the freedom to express themselves, many Chinese began questioning the dogmas of the Communist Party. After allowing this for a few months, Mao's government reversed its policy and rounded up those who criticized the Party in what is called the Anti-Rightist Movement.

The Great Leap Forward was intended by Mao as an alternative model for economic growth which contradicted the Soviet model of heavy industry that was advocated by others in the party. Under this economic program Chinese agriculture was to be collectivized and rural small-scale industry was to be promoted. In the middle of the Great Leap, Khrushchev canceled Soviet technical support because Mao was too radical in pushing for world wide communist revolution. This, along with severe droughts, caused the Great Leap to fail to meet its goals and resulted in widespread famines in which millions of Chinese died. With this failure, the Great Leap ended in 1960, and Mao was forced to write a self-criticism.

The withdrawal of Soviet aid, border disputes, disputes over the control and direction of world Communism, whether it should be revolutionary or status quo, and other disputes pertaining to foreign policy contributed to the Sino-Soviet split in the 1960s. Following these events, other members of the Communist Party including Liu Shaoqi and Deng Xiaoping decided that Mao should be deprived of power. They attempted to marginalize Mao, without denouncing him, allowing him to remain a figurehead, but without any real authority.

Mao responded to this by launching the Cultural Revolution, in the late 1960s, in which the Communist hierarchy was circumvented by giving power directly to the Red Guards, groups of young people, often teenagers, who set up their own tribunals.

In 1969, Mao declared the Cultural Revolution to be over, although the official history of the People's Republic of China marks the end of the Cultural Revolution in 1976 with Mao's death. In the last years of his life, Mao was faced with declining health due to Parkinson's disease and remained passive as various factions within the Communist Party mobilized for the power struggle anticipated after his death. During this decade, Mao created a cult of personality in which his image was displayed everywhere and his quotations were included in bold face or red letters in even the most mundane of writings.

The ideology surrounding Mao's interpretation of Marxism-Leninism, also known as Maoism, has influenced many communists around the world, including third world revolutionary movements such as Cambodia's Khmer Rouge, Peru's Shining Path and the revolutionary movement in Nepal. Ironically, China has moved sharply away from Maoism since his death, and most of Mao's followers regard the Deng Xiaoping reforms to be a betrayal of Mao's legacy.

The official view of the People's Republic of China is that Mao Zedong was a great revolutionary leader who made serious mistakes in his later life. In particular Mao is criticized for creating a cult of personality. In mainland China many people still consider Mao a hero in the first half of his life, but hold that he became a monster after gaining power. However, in an era where economic growth has caused corruption to increase in mainland China, there are those who regard Mao as a symbol of moral incorruptibility and self-sacrifice in contrast to the current leadership.

Mao's English interpreter Sidney Rittenberg, who remains the only American ever to be admitted into the Chinese Communist Party, was himself imprisoned in solitary confinement for a total of 16 years during the power struggles of Mao's rule.

However, in his memoir The Man Who Stayed Behind, Rittenberg states that he believes Mao never intended to cause the deaths and suffering endured by people under his chairmanship. In his remarks on the matter Rittenberg has declared that Mao "was a great leader in history, and also a great criminal because, not that he wanted to, not that he intended to, but in fact, his wild fantasies led to the deaths of tens of millions of people."

Li Rui, Mao's personal secretary, goes further and claims he was dismissive of the suffering and death caused by his policies: "Mao's way of thinking and governing was terrifying. He put no value on human life. The deaths of others meant nothing to him."

After his death, there was a power struggle for control of China. On one side were the leftists led by the Gang of Four, who wanted to continue the policy of revolutionary mass mobilization. On the other side were the Rightists, which consisted of two groups. One was the restorationists led by Hua Guofeng who advocated a return to orthodox socialist central planning along the Soviet model. The other was the reformers, led by Deng Xiaoping, who wanted to overhaul the Chinese economy based on pragmatic policies and to deemphasize the role of ideology in determining economic and political policy.

Furthermore, many within the People's Republic of China itself point to the phenomenal economic growth that has occurred in Mainland China as a result of the Deng Xiaoping reforms after Mao's death as evidence of the incorrectness of Mao's economic policies. Since the Deng era, China has sustained the highest rate of per capita economic growth for the past two decades.

Crisis is an Opportunity.

Bailout can not solve Crisis.

Crisis demands Leadership;
Crisis demands Innovation;

It is a Wonderful Opportunity for the New Players.

Take a look at Google, Yahoo, eBay, Amazon;

They do not belong to Computer Industry.

They belong to Information Technology Industry.

Here too, the "I" is more prominent than "T";
That is, Information is more important than Technology.

Google applies the latest Technology
to provide Information;

More than Technology,
Google is an Information company.

Google, Yahoo have a large customer base;
Google, Yahoo serve for Global customers.

Google, Yahoo have highly scalable, available
Web Services for Global Customers
with the support of multi language and other local features.

Google, Yahoo always,
Think Globally; Act Locally.

Google, Yahoo have the Mobile Support too.

Now, let us look at the current Banking Industry.

Do Banks manufacture any products?

No, Banks have No Manufacturing facility.

Do Banks distribute any products?

No, Banks have No Physical Distribution Channel;
No transportation facility.

What do Banks do?

Banks provide INFORMATION to their Customers.

What do Banks do, when you transfer fund?

Even for fund transfer, they do not physically move the currency.
They debit the source account; credit destination account;
All they do, is Information Exchange.

By moving from traditional banking to
Online Banking, Online Bills Payment,
Online Transfer Funds, Online Investments;

Now Mobile Banking;

By doing so, Banks have opened up their industry
for Google, Yahoo and others.

Now, no one drives to bank and deposit check.

Now, no one pays cash for the products.

So, all the Financial Institutions
are based on Information.

If you look at the Banks infrastructure;
It is all Servers and Applications.

So, Google, Yahoo and others can just take over
customers from the existing banks and give a new fresh start.

Its a very thin line between
Recession or Depression and Prosperity.

So, the current Crisis is a Golden opportunity for Google, Yahoo.

It is a natural growth of SOA;
Service Oriented Architecture.

Change is Created by McCain.

2008-09-08T00:21:00.001-07:00

The only way you can manage the change is to create it.

By the time you catch up to change, the competition is ahead of you.

-- Peter Drucker.

McCain did create that big change.

By the time, Obama catches up to this change,

McCain will be way ahead of Obama.

Somehow in this election,

the VP became a deciding factor.

That is the reason, both the candidates

took a very long time to announce their running mates.

Obama could have taken Hillary for the VP.

If Hillary was too big to be a VP,

Obama could have explored alternative woman candidate.

Had Obama chosen a woman candidate,

Obama could have united the party;

Obama could have retained all the woman supporters.

In that situation, McCain would have been forced to go

with different strategy.

Obama missed it; But McCain converted that

challenge into a Big Opportunity.

Everybody wonders, why did Obama choose Joe Biden?

Why did Obama take such a long time to pick Joe Biden?

Does Obama get any big jump in his supporters with Joe Biden?

This VP selection is a simple test.

It shows how good you study your opponent's

strategy and then you make your move.

Once you become the President,

there will be no opponents.

They are Enemies.

You can not afford to make mistakes like this,

when you become the President.

Just keep saying the word CHANGE,

without knowing the "change"

that has been happening around you - is no good.

The way Obama handling the Sarah Palin's entry demonstrates

that Obama camp was taken by total shock and surprise.

How come, not even one of his advisers asked this question?

What will happen, if McCain choose a Woman as his VP?

They were not prepared at all.

They failed to ask two questions?

First one is, Is there any woman candidate

other than Hillary for VP?

Second one is, What will happen,

if McCain choose a woman candidate?

Had they asked these two questions,

Obama could have handled this situation

in a much more comfortable way!

When you are not prepared;

When you failed to explore all the options;

When you failed to anticipate the opponent's challenge;

Then you lose.

It could have been a very easy,

winnable election for the Democrats;

But they made it so tough.

Hillary Clinton - Gone For Good

2008-09-03T22:31:00.000-07:00

Whether you like it or not,

you need to accept and appreciate

the Political Skill of John McCain.

Senator John McCain brought

Governor Sarah Palin into his team.

That is Innovation.

It is not a Surprise or Shock.

It is Innovation.

With this new thing,

Senator John McCain took

his opponents to a different platform.

Now the focus is completely shifted.

No one talks about Bush's economic policy.

Not about IRAQ war.

Now, this election is all about

Ladies & Gentlemen.

You deny opportunity to woman.

I give opportunity to woman.

With this new turn...

You could notice,

Hillary's picture and name

is totally out of Obama's web site.

From the Democrats perspective:

If Obama loses, the entire blame will be on Hillary.

Perhaps, in the future, there will not be

any room for Hillary in the Democratic Party.

If Obama wins, he will take full credit.

In 2012, Senator Clinton will be

a weak candidate against President Obama.

From the Republicans perspective:

If John McCain wins,

with the help of Hillary supporters,

McCain - Palin team will become stronger.

Even as woman vs woman,

Vice President Sarah Palin will be stronger

than Senator Clinton in 2012.

In all ways, Hillary Clinton - Gone For Good.

Still 60 more days;

It is Now or Never for Hillary Clinton.

Super Delegates - Politburo in America

2008-06-12T00:48:00.000-07:00

Politburo - political body

Politburo, the political body was, in Russian and Soviet
history, the supreme policy-making body of
the Communist Party of the Soviet Union.

The Politburo until July 1990 exercised supreme control
over the Soviet government; In 1990 the Politburo
was enlarged and was separated to a certain degree
from control over the Soviet government.

With the breakup of the Soviet Union in 1991 and
the subsequent banning of the Communist Party
in Russia (1991), the Politburo also was effectively dissolved.

In Russia, the Politburo was dissolved.

In America, the Politburo is born now.

They are known as Super Delegates.

In those years, in Communist countries, the youth
used to go to college and then they join the
Communist party and work hard to become
the member of the Politburo.

Now in America, the youth go to college and then
they join either one of the parties and work hard
to become the Super Delegates, the emerging
Politburo of the United States of America.

Politburo is the End of Freedom and Democracy.

Just imagine, what kind of model,
the responsible leaders of America building right now,
for the future generation to follow.

Everyone can not become the President.

But anyone can become the Super Delegate.

Now the power to elect the President is shifted from
the People to the Super Delegate,
the emerging Politburo of America.

Very soon, to win the ticket to be the presidential candidate,
the future leaders may corrupt the Super Delegates,
the Politburo of America.

The Super Delegates are openly endorsing the candidate.

So later they can approach the President and may remind
the President of United States of America that
it was his/her endorsement helped to become the President.

So the President of United States of America
may have to yield to the pressure of those
Super Delegates who made the King/Queen.

Yes, the Super Delegates, the emerging
Politburo of United States of America
will be the King or Queen Makers.

Wake up America!
Its Your Democracy; Its your Responsibility;
The house is on fire; Act Now!

Frozen Mind; Frozen Thoughts.

2008-06-10T20:12:00.000-07:00

Political Entertainments are not free;
It costs you huge human and other resources, time and money.

People do not take responsibility and act now;
But they do design a new bumper sticker and
live with the complaints for the rest of their life.

Does the Democracy in America inspire others to follow?

In America, democracy does not give you the basic freedom of contesting as a Presidential Candidate in the general election in spite of having the support of 18 millions people.

Well, this isn’t exactly the party I’d planned, but I sure like the company. It took 18 months in time and 18 millions voters and several millions contribution money to realize this basic truth.

Does America need these Primaries?
Why don't those super delegates choose someone and announce their candidate for the general election.That will save time, energy and money.

People would take responsibility and fix the defects in the system, only when they had no freedom. History proves this theory.

When there is freedom, people take it easy and live with the defects.

Why do the parties need to start with some 10 fake leaders;
fake debate; then they drop out and
finally each party left withone candidate to contest in the general election;

Is this the true democracy (of & by & for) the people

Few years ago, People in IRAQ were waiting for someone from Americato come and get their freedom.

Now, People in America is waitingfor someone from Mars to come and get their freedom and establishtrue democracy of the People.

Eight years ago, Al Gore lost in spite of winning the Popular Votes.
Now Hillary lost in spite of winning the Popular Votes.
Every one realized there is a bug in the system;
but no one bothers to fix it. so it continues and will hurt more in the future.

The Whole is greater than the Sum of the parts.
The People of America is Greater than the Sum of Democrats & Republicans.

Frozen Mind; Frozen Thoughts.

"You Quit, Hillary", Media Says

Others talk about Change;
Hillary is making the Changes right now;

On June 4, 2008. From Hillary's email to the people of America:
Now, let's read between the lines.

I wanted you to be one of the first to know: on Saturday,
I will holdan event in Washington D.C. to thank everyone
who has supported my campaign.

Over the course of the last 16 months, I have been privileged
and touched to witness the incredible dedication and sacrifice of
so many people working for our campaign.

Every minute youput into helping us win, every dollar you gave
to keep up the fight meant more to me than I can ever possibly tell you.

[comments]
"I Quit. It is over. Thank you".
Hillary could have said this by this time.
But she didn't say till now. I wanted you to be one of the first to know, not the media.

The media keep saying that "You Quit, Hillary".
But you keep saying that "Don't Quit, Hillary".
So, the you, the People of America is more important than the media.
[end of comments]

On Saturday, I will extend my congratulations to Senator Obama and my support for his candidacy. This has been a long and hard-fought campaign, but as I have always said, my differences with Senator Obama are small compared to the differences we have with Senator McCain and the Republicans.

I have said throughout the campaign that I would strongly supportSenator Obama if he were the Democratic Party's nominee, and I intend to deliver on that promise.

[Just Ignore the above paragraphs.]

When I decided to run for president, I knew exactly why I was getting into this race: to work hard every day for the millions of Americans who need a voice in the White House.

I made you -- and everyone who supported me -- a promise: to stand upfor our shared values and to never back down. I'm going to keepthat promise today, tomorrow, and for the rest of my life.

[Each and every word in the above paragraphshas a very high value and meaning.]

I will be speaking on Saturday about how together we can rally the party behind Senator Obama. The stakes are too high and the task beforeus too important to do otherwise.

I know as I continue my lifelong work for a stronger America and abetter world, I will turn to you for the support, the strength, and the commitment that you have shown me in the past 16 months.

And I will always keep faith with the issues and causes that are important to you. In the past few days, you have shown that support once again with hundreds of thousands of messages to the campaign, and again, I am touched by your thoughtfulness and kindness.

I can never possibly express my gratitude, so let me say simply, thank you.

[Again each word counts.For a stronger America; not just for stronger Party.]

Hillay for President; Obama for Vice President

2008-06-06T03:22:00.000-07:00

The only best option available for now.

When Obama takes a few hours off from all the busy activities
and sit alone and thinks about his journey,
he could easily realize his past achievements
and the future challenges.

Obama is still young.

The growth should be slow, steady, natural and organic.
Then only it sustains.

Democratic Nominee is a very big and historical achievement.

The truth is: it took several hundred years,
even for a party to accept an african-american candidate.

And, Obama had to fight for a long battle to win this nomination.

Now take a serious look at the current situation.

First and foremost fact: Is America ready for
an african-american as a President.

Second fact is: In the nomination process,
the party is divided.

In this situation, Obama has a huge burden
to unify the party, besides fighting against John McCain.

In this scenario, the chances of failure is more.

So the best option available for now is:
Thank you America.
Thank you for the nomination.
I am still young and learning.

So I wish to start as the Vice President
and then move to President.

So I request Hillary to take
the responsibility to lead this nation.

This decision will unite the party and the people.

This is the only best option available for now.

Hillary making Changes right now

2008-06-04T23:55:00.000-07:00

Others talk about Change;
Hillary is making the Changes right now;

From Hillary's email to her supporters:

Your spirit has inspired me every day in this race.
While I traveled this country talking about how
I wanted to help you -- time and again,
you reached out to help me.

To grab my hand or grip my arm, to look me in my eyes and tell me,
don’t quit, keep fighting, stay in this race for us.

This has always been your campaign, and tonight,there's no one
I want to hear from more than you.

I hope you're as proud as I am of what we've done and
that you'll take a moment to share your thoughts with me now at my website.

Whatever path I travel next, I promise I will keep faith with you and
everyone I have met across this good and great country.

So, it is not over.

You will get a clear picture if you take a step back and observe.

Here is the list of past scenes:

Hillary moved away from the Superdelegates math to Popular Vote count.
Take all the primary elections, even Purto Rico,very seriously and
try to win as much as Popular Votes
18 Million votes is a big achievement.
Fought against the Rules to win Florida & Michigan.
Hillary did not concede on Tuesday.
Hillary's website still ask for contribution.

Here is the list of future scenes:
Saturday Hillary's supporters will speak out.
People's Momentum would build up and raise Hillary as their candidate.
Hillary will ask the people to get her name in the ballot of all the states.
Obama - Democrats Nominee
McCain - Republican Nominee
Hillary - American People Nominee

Never a dull moment; more fire works is in store
Political Entertainment continues
This is what the rest of the world learns from America's Democracy.

CNN vs YouTube

2008-06-04T22:50:00.000-07:00

It is not CNN era; it is YouTube era.

In the earlier years, the television media go after only the winning candidates.

The other candidates have no other go but quit.

Not anymore.Now the candidate broadcast themselves in the YouTube.

They are in constant touch with the people through their web site.
Money continues to flow through the contributions in the web sites.

So Hillary's next move will be:
don't waste a single day;
start collecting the signatures;
get Hillary's name in the ballot papers of all the 50 states.
Let us ask the people directly who isthe President of United States of America.

Bill Gates of Microsoft - President of the United States of America.

2008-06-02T23:25:00.000-07:00

Bill Gates of Microsoft - President of United States of America.
John Chambers of Cisco - President of United States of America.
Larry Ellison of Oracle - President of United States of America.
Steve Jobs of Apple - President of United States of America.
Carly Fiorina of HP - President of United States of America.

They are the true Leaders of America.

They were there, when there was an economic boom.
They are still here, when there is an economic crisis.

These Leaders should be the candidate for
the President of United States of America.

It is a natural, organic growth process.

This is the right model for the future generation.

The future generation will study well;go to college;
learn the best management practices;
have responsibility as a ceo of a business organization;
then become the President of United States of America.

That is the Right Model.

Their Leadership Qualities have been throughly tested.

With their global operations, now these leaders have
a very clear Global Perspective.

They know the opportunities and challenges of
the Planet Earth and the global community.

They need new Challenges.

They have been doing the same CEO job for several years.
They need a break.

President of United States of America is
the right challenge for these Leaders.

CNN=Politics

2008-05-28T00:17:00.000-07:00

CNN=Politics
Does anyone like Politics?
Does anyone enjoy if some one playing politics on them?
Does it give you a sense of satisfaction or achievement when you play Politics?

No one enjoys Politics?

Politics hurts all.

Then why do we need to spend our life time on Politics?

Politics is not restricted to White House or Congress.
Politics does exist in every organization.
Politics does exist in all Business organizations;
Politics does exist in University, Hospital,Research,
Military and even in non-profit organizations.

Every Human Being is a Politician.

The truth is: Politics takes away all ourresources, time and energy.

The end result is: more destructive.

Then why do we need to highlight Politics.

Just ignore politics and promote Democracy.

CNN is the widely watched Television Network.

Not only the Americans watch CNN;
but also people around the world watch CNN.

In that case, is it possible to make the best use of CNN's effort?

Instead of Politics, let us have Democracy.

CNN=Democracy

In that way, we can explore the best practices
that needs to be followed for the democracy to work effectively.

In that way, CNN can teach people around the world
about Democracy.

So, change it; Instead of Politics, let us have it Democracy.

Its Your Democracy; Its Your Responsibility.

2008-05-22T00:05:00.000-07:00

At the close of the Constitutional Convention
in Philadelphia on September 18, 1787,
a Mrs. Powel anxiously awaited the results,

and as Benjamin Franklin emerged
from the long task now finished,
asked him directly:

"Well Doctor, what have we got,
a republic or a monarchy?"

"A republic, if you can keep it" responded Franklin.

Constitution of the Super Delegates

2008-05-21T23:49:00.000-07:00

It is time to take a fresh look at the Constitution of United States of America and make a fresh start.

The Constitution of United States is the Constitution for the mankind. It has been misinterpreted as Constitution of Two political Parties.

George Washington's dream is coming true in 2008. Government without any political parties.

End of Democracy for two political parties.

Beginning of the true Democracy (of & by & for) the People.

Ask a school kid. Who are the candidates for the President?

You may get an answer; Clinton & Obama

People slowly tend to forget John McCain.

Both Clinton and Obama are emerging as Strong Leaders.

Many people say, they were ready to vote for Mitt Romney.

Now that he quit, they don't know whom to vote for.

Does the Constitution say?It always should be between Democrat & Republican

Why not? Let it be between Democrat & Democrat

Why not? Have three candidates.Democrat & Democrat & Republican

Constitution of the United States or Constitution of the Super Delegates

What do you want to teach the next generations?

Beginning of the true Democracy (of & by & for) the People.

2008-05-21T23:38:00.000-07:00

The Whole is greater than the Sum of the parts.
The People of America is Greater than the Sum of Democrats & Republicans.
Frozen Mind; Frozen Thoughts.
Changes have already started happening.
The real crisis is not gas price; not economy;
The real crisis is: Leadership.
Republicans are not going to vote in the general election.
Democrats are not going to vote in the general election.
Americans are going to vote in the general election.
Republicans couldn't go backward and bring back Mitt Romney
Democrats couldn't go forward and have a candidate
The real concern is not about the nation.
It is about dividing and unifying political parties.
Weakening of one party, naturally weakens the other too.
End of Democracy for two political parties.
