A New America?

We need to look at particular communities for development. Race may not be the issue inasmuch as community. We must target areas for their strength and weakness. Their are places in our nation doing just fine. However there are some spots that are just dangerous. Who shall we move forward? America needs to look at why jobs are moving? Re-make our schools for job training.

Give people the tools they need for success. What are the health issues? The money we send to Iraq could go to poor communities to create small banks and jobs. We can change the way we think about money and education. Why are some people so rich and others so poor? Teachers and police along with other service people are poor and Oprah is so rich? They really need to invest in people. Race is one thing money is the real issue.

America can remove the Race Card with the money. If I had the resources I could care less about what people think or feel as long as it fair and legal.
