Excerpts from the daily round of news |
America: Love it or leave it?
The Vietnam war was fought out of general ignorance, both on the part
of the American government and its people. Not Again ! ?
Prosperity in this country does
not reach a full 30% of the population. Is this justice in America?
In search of Political Justice through liberal
methods.
Political Liberalism Certain items appear on
the legislative agenda again and again even though a public decision has been
reached and finalized. Is this justice?
Campaign rhetoric and principles of justice

struggle be to maintain a high quality of life?

past?
Liberalism, Roots, and branches from the 60's

understanding
the life processes on the earth and linking those to a religious way of life.

shell)

Pax Americana, American intimations of
former Roman glory: 1947 to the present. Political analysis depends on a
knowledge of history. How is it that WW II ended in stalemate, with a

front was how long? How many soldiers did Stalin have? How many square miles
does China occupy? Geography is the ruling force here.
