----- Original Message ----- An open letter... To: Barack Obama From Joseph Raglione. Distributed: January 29, 2014. 12:58 PM Dear President Obama. On some days I am not sure if you are simply stringing us along! Do Oil Pipelines remain on your political agenda? If so, what happened to all those alternative energy systems people have created? For example: Water and Wind Mills and Rooftop Solar Panels. How about super insulated homes or underground apartments? How about those fourth generation nuclear power plants that shut down at the smallest hint of a problem and reuse their own waste material? They are proving to be cleaner than Coal and Oil and they do not create global warming.

To quickly change the subject... How can it be possible that hand guns and assault rifles are legally allowed in the hands of almost every person within the United States? If the second amendment is the problem, hold a national referendum utilizing Television and Telephone and ask the question, should we amend the second amendment to limit assault rifles and hand guns? Personally, I believe the second amendment was created to protect your American ancestors from invasion by the British. it was not intended to create an armed camp today where children and babies are murdered on a regular basis. What human being with any sense of moral or ethical judgement wants to see innocent children slaughtered like Cattle? What fools within your federal government want to allow this kind of mayhem to continue? My next question is aimed at your new Medicaid system? Are you winning or losing ground? Are U.S. citizens getting the help they need from hospitals and clinics? Are multi-national corporations and special interest groups continuing to dictate terms to Washington members of Congress? If so who are these organizations and why are they not exposed in the Media? How can so many members of the Republican party be so ignorant about the fact of global warming? There is pictorial evidence that Glaciers have melted more within the last ten years than any other time in recorded history! Arctic Ice is also going fast and above the Arctic and Antarctic ice caps, large Ozone holes have become a terrible reality! They are created by man made pollution. With pollution, fresh water has become a commodity for sale in toxic plastic bottles and not free for everybody! To once again change the subject, why are Television commercials filled with polluting internal combustion engine cars when alternative all Electric vehicles are now available? Everybody is aware that Carbon Monoxide is a deadly gas and it should be outlawed and certainly not pumped into the air we all breath! What is happening with the national Electric Grid and the promised alternative energy sources? Has that been allowed to fail and if so who is responsible? T.V. should be regulated and violence reduced. They are using violence to sell almost everything on television. Educational channels should proliferate as opposed to so-called reality channels where millions of T.V. viewers are forced to sit and passively watch a parade of low intelligence people doing basically foolish attention grabbing stunts. These waste of time programs have one purpose and that is to sell cheap time limited and pollution creating products to people with low incomes and low intelligence. Products which quickly end up in large garbage dumps all over the world and also within large circular Gyers within our Oceans. Television viewers are brain-washed from childhood to watch violence on television. Repeated exposure to violence does desensitize the human capacity for generosity and compassion. Adults brought up by violence in the Media are desensitized to the violence in real life. This allows gun merchants to continue making obscene profits while proliferating deadly international wars! Television has become a corporate controlled vehicle for selling gas burning vehicles in order to maintain their economic status. I suggest science programs like the Discovery Channel replace much of the garbage now paraded on television. I suggest a strong code of Ethics be applied to all potential commercials on television. Two Important questions must be asked before any product be granted television time. 1. Is this product safe for people to eat or use? 2. How will this product affect the environment? For example, these two minutes of education are brought to you by Tesla, the anti- pollution Electric Car company. Signed: Joseph Raglione Ex/Dir: The World Humanitarian Peace and Ecology Movement.
