The Need to Educate & Enlighten

As the last two weeks of the U.S. Presidential campaign are being fought out all across America, the dark clouds continue to gather all around us. Markets continue to fall, foreclosures continue to rise and we seem to be on the edge of the abyss.

I have been profoundly concerned about the future. I have been trying to understand how the future will hold for us all. As we approach the election and face the stark choices, I wanted to report on this interview Jon Stewart did with Robert Reich. Jon Stewart, in my view, is "the man". He has done more to educate us about what is "real".

Despite all that has been said about the media, some media moguls seem to give leeway to true creativity. I commend Sumner Redstone and the entire Viacom team for giving us the Daily Show and the Colbert Report. I am also a fan of Robert Reich, too. It can't get better than this.

Enjoy!!!
