we do in terms of movement building for the human rights issue in africa, we go to local areas around the united states where people already care about what's going on in these places. student groups and churches and synagogues and other places where people are already concerned and care and do believe that we are in some way, shape or form, brothers, sisters keeper and so i think the same would apply here. that you would want to invest a lot of time in building those local coalitions that as has been the case with tried to do with this bill, build that slowly, steadily and build those local coio thus a movement segm the community, the constituen constituencies of voters concerned about these kinds of things and it usually is for these kinds of issues, the religious communities and students, and finding like minded folks who are willing to help put some of those building blocks together for a movemenisf that and you're a part of it and i think that getting people like hill who has face and name recognition and is able to articulate the answers to s suc profound, personal way and there are lots of other

the request of the syrian national council, the free syrian army and local coordinating committees inside the country, the united states should help to lead such an effort in syria. but as i have repeatedly said, this does not mean we should go it alone. we should not. we should seek the active involvement of key arab partners such as saudi arabia, uae, jordan and qatar and allies in the e u and nato, the most important of which in this case is turkey. rather than closing off the prospects for negotiated transition that is acceptable to syria's opposition, military intervention is now needed to strengthen this option. assad needs to know that he will not win. and unfortunately, that is not the case now. to the contrary, assad seems convinced that he can wipe out the opposition through violence and is fully committed to doing so. the ideal political outcome of military intervention would be to change this dynamic, to prevent a long, bloody fight to the finish by compelling assad and his top lieutenants to give up power without further bloodshed, thereby creating the opportunity for a peaceful transition to democracy, po

i heard on the news one day about a local now and girl had been raped by united states military men and i was very upset over this because. i remember how we treat sort of treated the okinawan people when i was here as a second as an eighteen year old and eventually some of peace activists got in touch with me and they had a contact here in okinawa and when they found out that i had been stationed here they left the base people here know that there was an exploration who was stationed here who's doing piecework now in america and so they invited me to come back to do so we took lectures so that was one nine hundred ninety six and that's when i came back and as we moved around the island and i saw the bases were still here i just couldn't believe it. it's almost like a cancer here for these people they day since the end of world war two these spaces have been here. this is something americans should know what happens when we open bases in other people's cons. what kind of problems as it saw. or does it cause more problems and i think it does i think people. i think people get really angr

we have the president of the united states weighing in. there's a localestigation going on, a federal investigation going on. and he is the man representing the could-be defendant in this case. he said he hadn't listened to the 911 tapes, when everyone in the world, i think, has listened to them. he hasn't spoken to his client much about the shooting. that tells me he's not preparing a defense in this case. i think it's ludicrous. it's egregious. >> he said that his client was not a racist. he mentored two young african-american children. did you hear anything that could be the basis for an effective defense down the road? >> i think he wanted to make sure he was laying a groundwork against a federal hate crime. that's why we heard him say he's not a racist. and talked about his mentoring of african-american children. he talked about his clients' injuries. and under the stand your ground law, i don't think it applies in this case. that's laying a little bit for my client was attacked. the bottom line is, again, when you talk about stand your ground law, a

local governments to contend with natural resources that tribes are not eligible to compete. so, it seems if tribes can be included in many other opportunities, it shouldn't matter where geographically, good public policy across the united states means, there aren't those type of barriers. so we have some of the most pristine areas in our travel communities but relative to state and local governments our funding is incredibly short of where they are at. so that would be one recommendation. on the other it seems that when you look at national goings of tribal governments, the revenue stream that comes in from grants and the federal government is just one revenue stream. there are many others that if congress were to look at one increasing private-sector development within our tribal communities there are some initiatives in the sba and others but by increasing a private sector that allows us to increase our tax base in that those dollars would go to meet things like natural resources. incentivizing private partnerships with tribal communities. if you look at the low-income housing tax credits we can sell those allowing corporations to defer their tax liabilities for ten years we can build housing infrastructure. there's the ind

most people point out that the state governments would be the first they'd miss or the local governments because that's where most business is done in the united states, but we seem to put more focus on the general government or the federal government than any other. so i found that very interesting. when i was going through this, i didn't realize the depth of that and how in depth they had gone to explain these things. because, you see, general welfare, people talk about this, and you hear it every now and then, but the founding generation explained it. in detail. and there are several other quotes about the legislative branch. that if i had time, i could go through. and, of course, their found in the append cease. but the fact is this general government that the founders designed was for general purposes. now, last but not least, the judicial branch. we often put our faith today in the supreme court, and, of course, the problem with the supreme court as we see over time, it doesn't matter which side of the political spectrum you're on, they might agree with your opinion in one case and disagree in another, they can change their mind over and
