Why do the greens seem so western oriented?

The converse question is why are there so few eastern “greens”?

Another obvious question is why don’t greens run for elections in the western countries, and sell the power of their ideas to all citizens, western and eastern? And why do they avoid obvious questions like too many humans? If they are all sure enough right, then we common citizens should recognize the value of their opinions and support them in our votes. That is fair enough. But those that choose other methods to advance their opinions to include using politicians and the media are suspect. The motives are many. Those that retreat into the personal safety of western cultural sanctuaries are especially reprehensible. If a cause is important enough, one goes in harms way. Just ask our fellow Americans in the military about this idea and example.

To be fair, one is not a coward if using common sense. And also to be fair, one who is disingenuous about tricking us to support their ideas is using trickery apporaching reproach. They are acting in their interests and not necessarily our interests. And if they are ignoring obvious attacks by those who want to do us in, that is especially bad. Is surrender in their bag of tricks, or are they just naïve or disingenuous?

We American citizens have other choices and alternatives than what is presented today, mostly in the common reporting media, though the entertainment media also is defective. We can choose to be both green, and smart, and futurist as in thinking of our kids. Yes, we have alternatives, some pretty smart. And obtuse silly people have gained a plate at the table. Most citizens are as smart or smarter than these table people can be.

A little science and a lot of leadership will go a long way towards our national interests and future survival. Few seem to have stepped up to the plate, yet. And this is the beauty of America. We have so many soft spoken people who live by principles and do well for our Country, and hopefully in the election cycle of 2008 many of these fine citizens will step up, mostly at the local level. Good on ‘em if they do.
