Of Clowns & Men

Hi everybody.Happy New Year!As a humble hoboclown I decided to send my opinion of how I think the Obama-Biden Transition Team can make things better for the USA and its' citizens. I submitted my opinion in the form of my September 23,2008 blog entitled, Fat Cats & The Economy.My submisson drew a reply from John D. Podesta,Co-chair of The Obama-Biden Transition Team. John thanked me for my opinion and invited me to view the Change.gov/Plan video on the American Recovery & Reinvestment Plan. I viewed the video today and was impressed.
As a hoboclown detective I decided to see who John was and digged up a July 2,2001 New York Times.com article entitled, Public Lives;No Affinity for Trees,but a Nature Crusader Nonetheless, by Katharine Q. Seelye. To put it briefly, through this activity I learned that Barack Obama has surrounded himself with many able and committed people who have our country and the globe's best interest at heart. I admire John Podesta for having been referred to as a " Nature Crusader".John is no clown but I don't think I'll hold that against him !
