When my oldest son, a Marine, left for war and crossed the border from Kuwait into Iraq in March 2003 I started writing my conscience. After two tours that young combat veteran, my first born son, is now permanently disabled suffering from post traumatic stress disorder and his mother is now an ardent peace activist. Today I am active with Veterans for Peace, Military Families Speak Out and on the board of Rural Organizing Project Also, I am CEO of Rogue River Wind, Ltd and the inventor of a low profile wind turbine incorporating a high bandwidth generator developed with Portland State University.

Ho hum, Obama will take the nomination

An historic event, I suppose, a black man running for president and I wish I could be excited about him. Unfortunately, he does not have a plan to extricate us from Iraq or return manufacturing jobs to the US thereby rebuilding our economy. And what is that health care thing he is doing?

While I am more likely to vote for Obama than Clinton I am not excited about my options for president.
