Reasons for Producing this Booklet: 1.Newspapers, magazines, Congressmen, Senators, and our President did not answer these articles to them. The very few who did respond did so with what I call "Dear John" notes (samples attached). 2.The people, not the media, should be the judges. 3.Wealth and money should not be the scale to measure people's status or opinions to make wise and important decisions. 4.Americans should be Americans, period, not labels of different parties or races. 5.Charity should start at home, not thousands of miles away. 6.To be respected, we should not be biased. Respect is a two-way street. We should not act as bullies in spreading our democratic beliefs in this world. We should be passive, peaceful, and pleasant in dealing with all nations, and deal with them equally. 7.Americans should be brave again; not be shy or retreat because of their wealthy opponents. They should freely, reasonably, gently, and fairly fight for their rights and opinions. January, 2004
