We need an integrative approach to politics just like we have an integrative approach to medicine, realizing that what we do with our minds is as important to our health as what we do to our bodies. America needs to change our hearts as much as we need to change our policies.

It's really quite something, and why I am trying so hard to get the 65,000 individual contributors so I can make it onto the DNC debate stage. If anyone thought American politics didn't have self-appointed gatekeepers, think again.... Marianne2020.com

Corporate greed has not just corrupted America's economic system; it has highjacked our value system. It has turned us into a transactional rather than a relational society, in which selling to one another is given more primacy than loving one another.

Trump looked out and saw a lot of fearful, angry people, and thought, "Wow, we could change the country with that." I look out and see a lot of decent, loving people and think, "Wow, we could change the world with that." Game on.

Our defense strategy doesn't plan for future peace, but only for future war. Even Donald Rumsfeld said we must learn to wage peace. Peace-creation strategies, domestically and internationally, are much less expensive & more effective than sole reliance on methods of brute force.

Our economic system doesn't aim for abundance 10 years from now; it steals from the future by squeezing profits from the present, too little used to provide for future good of workers or environment. For future economic vibrancy, we need do much more for our young people today.

Peace isn't the absence of war; war is the absence of peace. We must do much more to wage peace - by expanding economic opportunities for women and educational opportunities for children around the world, plus doing everything we can to diminish unnecessary human suffering.

So since we have a lot of military strength, shouldn't we have peace by now? Peace comes from waging peace, not just from preparing for war.

Small random acts of kindness not enough; we need huge strategized acts of doing the right thing. We need a Dept of children & Youth to address the chronic trauma of millions of American children; reparations; & a new, robust partnership between peace creation & war preparedness.
