Dear President Obama,

You have a big speech coming up and we all are looking for something to be hopeful about and you are good at encouraging the best in us. Call on us to be bigger than our disagreements and more creative in finding solutions to the many challenges of our time.

Real changes involve leaving the old ways that don’t work behind including: war, a corporate run health care program, under-regulated commerce, environmental policies that damage the future of the planet, and a political system that is run totally by influence money. These things must change even if it makes those benefiting from these dysfunctional systems mad. They are already mad because they don’t get everything they want.

Courage to you and to all who seek what is best for the people,

Joseph Bernard, Ph.D.
