Use Every Brain to Win in the World

Is the Cold War over? Is the American Empire in decline? Will Communist China be the next Super Power? Where will America lead the world?

The answers to these question lies with everyday Americans. We can no longer rely upon downsizing, Chapter 11 declaring, campaign contributing, outsourcing, global conglomerates to keep America competitive. Too many huge corporation have shown their incompetence is surpassed only by their arrogance and greed.

America's future depends upon entrepreneurs who start innovative, profitable companies that help solve the worlds problems. Some of these small businessmen -Bill Gates - have done and continue to do tremendous things

America needs to lead in global high-growth, high-tech industries. Fortunately opportunities abound - alternative power sources, efficient transportation, communications technologies, security technologies, homeland security, disaster recovery, and health care to name a few.

In order to lead in these areas, America needs to re-focus her resources on world-class public education. Education must focus more of its resources on teaching 21st century skills in entrepreneurship, technology, creativity, and democracy. This will help create the next generation of high-tech innovative company builders. The companies these people launch & grow will create jobs, pay taxes & improve our quality of life.

To build the companies of tomorrow, America needs to declare & win a 21st Century War on Illiteracy & Poverty in America.
We must win with education. Our children deserve a fighting chance. We need to take care of each other before we try to solve the world's problems. It is time for America to lead by example.

If we fail to educate and innovate, we will lose. To remain competitive in the future, America must leverage every willing brain in our country. We must fund & improve public education to build a better America.

If we believe in the future, we need to invest in the future. America is part of a global economy. We owe tons of money to other countries. If we don't find new ways to create economic growth, we are screwed!
