CAST THE ULTIMATE PROTEST VOTE

An Interview With: Joseph Farah, Founder, World Net Daily; former editor in chief of major market dailies; author of "None of the Above: Why 2008 Is The Year to Cast The Ultimate Protest Vote". WND is the Internet news source that started it all ten years ago & now draws 5 million visitors a month.

Ask yourself…

Do John McCain or Barack Obama look out for our best interests?
Was the federal government ever meant to be involved in every facet of our lives?
Would either candidate, as president, mean a further loss of personal freedom?
Isn’t it time to reject a political system that’s rotten to the core?

This is an uncommon presidential election. Most of the electorate is disgusted with both candidates and government in general. The press has not done its job competently. We don’t know who either candidate is, or the likely changes they'd bring to the table, the laws, and the constitution. What's the best course of action for American voters on November 4th? A write-in vote for an unlikely winner? A revolt signaled by not voting?

MARKETPLACE EARTH

My Guest: Tammie Umbel, Founder of Shea Terra Organics; started a textile company that didn't quite satisfy all her creative urges. hearing about the healing properties of shea butter she began a search for rare herbs and oils to improve on it, falling in love with Africa along the way.

Her Shea Butter lotions have dream-inducing names like Madagascar Vanilla, Cape Chamomile Lavender, Rainforest Wild Fruit, Nubian Milk, & Honeybush Peach. And that's just the cosmetic/healing line. There's also Baobab Gold Elephant Pepper Sauce, Gorilla Fund Coffee and Divine Chocolate. What's not to love? The products are carried by Nordstrom & on her website.

An entrepreneur who's known since childhood she wanted to change the world. In Africa, Umbel turned her life's ambition into a decent source of income for local women by using Fair Trade practices. Instead of struggling through poverty they can now work with a product they know and have a home-based business. Through her work Umbel is helping to save the Miombo Rainforest, remains a powerhouse researcher, has eleven children, a family farm & orchards in Virginia, along with a plethora of animals.

If you've been wondering what to do because you're not doing what makes you happy, listen to a woman who keeps inventing the path she's on.

Jesse the Governing Body

An Interview with: Governor Jesse Ventura who has spent a lifetime doing the unexpected very well.

Retired Navy Seal Team ONE - Underwater Demolition
Rolling Stones bodyguard
Former Mayor of Brooklyn Park Minnesota
" The Body" Ventura - World Wrestling Hall of Fame
" Jesse the Governing Body" - Governor of Minnesota
Actor. Radio & TV Talk Show Host
Author, I Ain't Got Time to Bleed - 1999 Best Seller, & Don't Start the Revolution Without Me, just released.

He describes himself as fiscally conservative and socially liberal, has run on Reform Party and Independent Party tickets. He was rumored to start, this year, a run for President or the Minnesota Senate but announced a week ago that he would not.

Unpredictable as he is, he has found immense grass roots popularity in everything he's done & few friends in entrenched politics. When elected Governor, Minnesota had a budget surplus & Ventura promised to return the money to the taxpayers of his state. The legislature went into shock.

Ventura has called the war in Iraq a disaster, the 2-party system corrupt, & says the World Trade Towers had to be brought down by demolition. He now lives & surfs in Mexico.

NOT OUR FIRST RODEO

My guests: Rodeo President John Cunha, Salinas Mayor Dennis Donohue, Vendor’s Harold Phillipoff & Paul Turner, and Doc Etienne who co-founded the Salinas Rodeo and the Monterey Jazz Festival. We'll be there live with a hot microphone!

Saddle up, cowpokes, and ride. The 100 year old Rodeo is in town, and what a town. Salinas, California is the salad bowl of the world with a 3 billion dollar agricultural industry except for 4 days in July when it's reminiscent of being a cow-town in its early years. The Salinas Rodeo hosts millions of visitors who come for barbeque, fireworks, Miss California, and Lynyrd Skynyrd, and some to rope, wrestle, and defying both gravity and their body’s skeletal structure, ride 2-ton bulls and bucking broncos. (www.carodeo.com).

At stake is cash, gold belt buckles, and some serious bruising for riders drawn from all over the country, some new at the game and some old hands who've broken every bone at least once. Salinas turns into a poet’s rhapsody and a painter’s landscape for four days amidst the rich dark brown loam of cultivated fields sparked with crops of strawberries, artichokes, asparagus and lettuce. This is Grapes of Wrath country, where Steinbeck is a favorite son.

The question is what does this annual return to simpler times bring to and subsequently cost its host community? Is it really a merchants dream or their worst nightmare? Stay tuned . . .

THINK OF AN ELEPHANT

My Guest, Paul Bailey, World Traveler and Explorer of the outer reaches of civilization, Author of Think of an Elephant, writes: What is reality?

He says that humanity is on the threshold of a breakthrough in perception as profound as the shift made 500 years ago -- from the infancy of mapping a flat world to Galileo's orbital universe. And that we are headed for a liberation and energy we dared not dream possible. He has been called a chiropractor for the mind and spirit; a perceptive writer of extraordinary reach.

My Guest says:

Money is not the root of all evil, money gives velocity to opportunity.
The global economy is run like a casino.
Almost every habit we have is good not bad.
Our universe contains an intelligent energy.
Health is more mental than physical.
Humanity is getting better not worse.
If you've dreamed of making an impact on the world, of living your own life with more content, purpose & meaning, this is the start-up kit.

THE BACK OF THE NAPKIN

Not just any business executives, picture Google, EBay, Wal-Mart, the US Navy, HBO and Sun Micro Systems among many others.

Some examples are …

A chocolate company needing to visualize the right training program helping it to grow without sacrificing quality.
A chairman needing a powerful visual symbol articulating a new vision for the firm she was hired to lead.
A ten billion dollar publisher needing to see why nobody has heard of them.
Who are our customers? Where is our business going? How can we improve? Roam shows how anyone can clarify such murky problems by looking, seeing, imagining, and showing-with immediate results. With real-world examples, Roam show how pictures have been used with dramatic, measurable impact.

Driving the Economic Engine

There are statistics on the hours we watch TV a week, the cups of coffee we drink in a year, & just how many Twinkies we've eaten by our 65th birthday. Here's some good news on what happens every thirty seconds in this country: A new home-based business springs to life.

There are now over 24 million micro-businesses, which began with individuals wanting to earn a living with their own ideas, and cover the overhead including the mortgage.

One person, who has an idle thought at breakfast, turns it into details by dinner, forms a corporation a month later is all it takes. A genuine micro-business employs fewer than 10 people and generates less than $500,000 a year. Chances are it all started with an entrepreneur’s passion.

Micro-businesses have spawned a whole new cottage industry of experts eager to instruct on getting funding for inventory, business savvy, and training to enter the global market place. You can find a pamphlet, book, lecture series, or guru offering a plethora of advice.

All you really need to know is what you want. And, more importantly, how to stay out of your own way.

My guest Roger Pasquier, is a brilliant entrepreneur who's figured out more answers than you knew you had questions to ask. Stay tuned....

INSIDE STEVE’S BRAIN

An Interview with: Leander Kahney: News editor - Wired.com; author of The Cult of Mac & The Cult of iPod and his latest, Inside Steve’s Brain.

To understand how Steve Jobs turned his contradictory personality into a business philosophy you must first understand that personality.

Here are a few hints …

He’s an elitist who thinks most people are bozos – then makes gadgets easily mastered by them.
He’s a mercurial obsessive with a nasty temper – then forges deep partnerships with creative geniuses like Steve Wozniak, Jonathan Ive and John Lasseter.
He’s a Buddhist and anti – materialist – but has an intuitive mastery of the materialistic arts of advertising and public relations.
He has convinced the world that ultra – nerdy technology can be compatible with ultra – cool design, branding and fashion.
Jobs is famous for his narcissism, perfectionism and desire for total control, but the same traits that make him hard to work for are the keys to his success at Apple and Pixar. Stay Tuned....

ECONOMIC REALITY CHECK

My Guest, Steve Forbes: author (A New Birth of Freedom - 1999), Chairman and CEO of Forbes Inc., and Editor in Chief of Forbes Magazine; ran for the Presidency on the Republican ticket in 1996 and 2000 urging flat tax, medical savings accounts, parental school choice, term limits, & a strong defense.

In his 4/21/08 "Fact and Comment" column in Forbes.com: "Why Stocks Stink", my guest points out that…

China's growth is figured on a much smaller base, so the growth rate is higher. But from 2002 - 2007, the US economy grew the size of China's in five years.

The weakening dollar has slowed America's performance.
The Bush Administration and Fed created excess money to increase exports, but it led to inflation.

Cheap money hurts business investment at home.
Our next President will look like an economic genius if taxes are not raised, and will have to clean up the Bush/Bernanke monetary mess.

Forbes predicts that despite the stock market misery & credit crisis, we're "on the verge of breathtaking innovations". Does that sound like the nightly news?

As for the Fed, it has spoken but hasn't said much. Are we seeing the end of our Republic played out in a bloated bureaucracy, waste and bad thinking, heading toward unstoppable disaster? Or do we need to take a clear-eyed view of what's actually happening with America's economy from someone who's on top of the game. Stay Tuned....

Social Conundrums

An interview with: Richard Ebling PhD, President – Foundation for Economic Education.

“It is ludicrous to imagine that a social arrangement is sustainable in which anyone who chooses to persist in a money-losing occupation is entitled to be supported in his obstinacy by the rest of society.” Gene Callahan (The Freeman)

· What exactly doe “Fair Trade” mean?

· Do we have a Department of Homeland Security or Department of Happiness?

· Why do democracies choose bad policies?

AMERICAN HEROES vs. RADICAL ISLAM

An interview with Lt. Colonel Oliver North, USMC (Ret.) is the ultimate primary source: He has devoted more than forty years of his life to the United States military, was a member of the National Security Council staff and served as the U.S. government’s counter-terrorism coordinator from 1983-1986. President Ronald Reagan described him as “an American hero.”

North and his award-winning War Stories documentary team have made a dozen extended trips to Afghanistan, Iraq and the Philippines to cover U.S. and allied military units and personnel for FOX News Channel. His extensive experience as a decorated military officer, counter-terrorism expert and documentary filmmaker embedded with American combat units gives him a unique perspective on the enemy we face and the qualities of those who have volunteered to protect us.

“This book is a tribute to the brave men and women I have covered in combat,” North explains, “I have the best job in broadcasting. Those who fight America’s wars are my beat. I hang around real heroes for a living . . . They wear flak jackets, flight suits and combat boots.”

North’s unprecedented access, his grasp of history, and his lucid, firsthand reports from the crucible of combat make this a stirring chronicle of courage, commitment, compassion, and faith. Former Speaker of the U.S. House of Representatives and historian Newt Gingrich has describe this work as a “treasure.”

Pioneers of No-Cost Health Care

An interview with Stan Brock: Founder of RAM (Remote Area Medical) in 1985, Remote Area Medical a publicly supported all-volunteer charitable organization. Volunteer doctors, nurses, pilots, veterinarians and support workers participate in expeditions (at their own expense) in some of the world’s most exciting places. Medical supplies, medicines, facilities and vehicles are donated.

Discussion:

Ability to use aviation to increase RAMS’ effectiveness to provide no cost health services for people in need in areas difficult to reach by road.

Millions of unwanted pets are euthanized every year. In many places throughout the world, there are inadequate funds and veterinary services available to address this overpopulation crisis. Stray animals often endure physical suffering and pose a public health threat to people through the risk of physical injury and disease transmission. To date RAM Vet has provided assistance to more than 60,000 companion and large animals worldwide. The capabilities of this group are limited only by imagination and volunteer support, if you are interested in volunteering or hosting a RAM Vet spay/neuter clinic, please contact Bruce Langlois. Volunteer veterinarians, veterinary technicians, veterinary students and animal healthcare workers are especially needed but anyone with a passion for helping animals is encouraged to volunteer. The adventure is worth the commitment.

From Knoxville, TN where over thirteen hundred people received vision and dental care to food aid in Swaziland, RAM is present with tools and volunteers to make tomorrow a better day in the lives of thousands in need.

We need RAM and they certainly need us! Stay Tuned…

AMERICA'S MAYORS

My guests: The Honorable Mayors of 3 similar American cities: Dennis Donohue, Salinas, California (1st term). Roy Buol, Dubuque, Iowa (3rd term). Martin Chavez, Albuquerque, New Mexico (3rd term).

You've seen your mayor addressing the Kiwanis club, sweating out community meetings, announcing tornadoes, asking for courage in the face of adversity, proposing higher water taxes, cheering for the home team, kissing babies & opening the new library wing. Fine. Most Americans want their government to function without bothering the citizens.

But when economics or housing or immigration or jobs or terrorism are screaming headlines and you need answers, your mayor is the first line of defense. Surprise you? It shouldn't.

In a year boiling toward national presidential elections, we may be forgiven for not looking closer at hand for leadership affecting our daily lives: City Hall.

What's the function of local government? Let's take a walk down the Main Street of three American towns:

ALBUQUERQUE, NEW MEXICO: Border Town Straddling the Rio Grande; Crime down, Water Conservation up; illegal immigrant troubles; home to native American tribes; grappling with 2nd fastest population growth in the country; praiseworthy animal welfare reform; Tax Cuts. And ranked #1 by Forbes magazine - lowest cost place to do business in the country; Big tourist & retirement destination.

SALINAS, CALIFORNIA: 8 miles from the Pacific Ocean, only a stagecoach stop in 1847 it became the Salad Bowl of the World a century later -- Agriculture is a 2.2 billion dollar city industry; Population 45% Hispanic; Steinbeck's Grapes of Wrath; the Rodeo; restoring peace and quality of life to a gang-torn town; Libraries saved by dynamic town rallies.

DUBUQUE, IOWA: Home of "Field of Dreams"; "Masterpiece of the Mississippi River" & settled by the French; One of nation's "Best Communities for Young People"; Forbes ranks it 15th in "Best Small Places for Business & Careers"; John Deere manufacturing; Very Independent: The State of Dubuque; Corn, Soybeans, Hogs, & Dairy Cattle make over 10 billion a year for Iowa.

You thought you had headaches? Okay, this radio show's listening audience elected these men to office. Let's find out how they solve problems. Learn something about the challenges of the Mayor's job, and how good deeds get done and why some troubles stick like glue.

WHEN RICH GIRLS GO RIGHT

My Guests: Felicity, and Zeema, Co-Authors of "How to Date a Millionairess: The A to Z Little Black Book".

Mothers have been telling their daughters since Eve left Eden that it's just as easy to fall in love with a doctor as the pizza delivery guy. Now, with women skyrocketing into higher income brackets, mothers are telling their sons to go find a nice CEO.

My guests wrote a step-by-step guide for guys to common sense dating...of rich women. The 21st Century Millionairess, they say, is not a video vixen or a pop tart, but more likely a nice girl next door who knows how to manage her finances.

Okay, you're a guy. How do you get to meet her, and what's she going to expect? Is she going to demand champagne, caviar, and a week in Dubai? Or is she sure of herself and not likely to be overly dependent on you. Hey, this could be fun!

Zeema and Felicity say:

She's happy.
She's secure.
She's living her life to the fullest.
And she cherishes the man in her life.

Girls...If you're a millionaire now or expect to be, here's some sound advice about solving the dating problem. And for guys: How do you find happiness with a woman whose income bracket is not a problem for either of you?

Code Red – Healthcare By Force!

An interview with: David Dranove, Leading Healthcare Economist, Professor at Northwestern University, and co-author of "Code Red: An Economist Explains How to Revive the Healthcare System without Destroying It."

My guest claims the American healthcare system can be healed. Dranove, who supports competition in healthcare, also says:

The US healthcare system is in critical condition
A century of efforts to patch up healthcare have failed, and he asks:
What are the root causes of rising costs, lower quality, & malfunctioning insurance markets?
If you were born any time before 1985, you've already faced the dramatic change in doctors, hospitals, emergency rooms, and company policies that provide healthcare in America. “Take two aspirin & call me in the morning” has morphed into costly tests, indifferent caretakers, badly run & dangerous hospitals, options for international medical treatment, frightening laws affecting your school-aged children, & a confusing array of plans & benefits now rivaling the tax code for complicated double talk.

It seems that the entire body-politic is on the bandwagon demanding you sign on -- with no focus on injury awaiting the body & wallet. Do we want healthcare forced by law? How did a useful system go so wrong? Can it be fixed?

For answers to the critical questions - stay tuned.

Is There Morality in the Media?

An interview with: Robert W. Peters, NYU Law School grad; speaker & lecturer, his opinion pieces are printed in major American newspapers; Staff Attorney for Morality In Media, and Assistant Director of National Obscenity Law Center which serves as a clearinghouse for obscenity law; he has written briefs for US Court of Appeals and the US Supreme Court, testified before the US Senate Judiciary Committee; drafted resolutions which Congress enacted. For 14 years Robert Peters has been President of Morality in Media, Inc., a non-profit founded in 1962 to combat obscenity and uphold standards of decency in the media. He has authored articles on the future of cyberspace, and asks if we have built an information superhighway or technological sewer.

Discussion:

-In 2002, Morality In Media set up a website for citizens to complain about Internet obscenity directly to federal prosecutors who enforce federal Internet obscenity laws.

- 70,000 complaints have been made.

- In 2005-6 Congress earmarked funds for Justice Department obscenity investigations.

- However, the President and Congress focus on curbing child pornography, and 'adult' obscenity. Important job, but who's watching the media?

- The Supreme Court held that the First Amendment does not protect obscenity.

- Opinion polls indicate Americans support enforcing federal obscenity laws.

Morality In Media was founded by Father Morton Hill who said morality is tied to the liberties of a free people; and that morality is not merely private but also a public matter of standards and controls over the marketplace.

What are we getting into as we set to enforce standards of decency for our country? Can we do it? What guidelines do we use? Will we be better off for it?
Tune in, let's get to the heart of the matter with an expert.

MOB MENTALITY

An interview with: Lila Rajiva, Political Journalist; Publishing House Editor; Blogger on Mind-Body-Politic; Author of The Language of Empire on the Abu Ghraib prison; and recently: "Mobs, Messiahs, and Markets: Surviving the Public Spectacle in Finance and Politics" .

Discussion:

The looming "R" word -- uttered by Greenspan, Bernanke, politicians, Wall Street brokers, and every commentator on air and in print -- may be more of a leap to mob mentality than the real thing. My guest says: "Recessions are a result of mood and psychology." That economics is not driven only by intelligent self-interest, but crowd behavior, which is why everyone wants popular stocks. And if the world is in a selling panic, you sell too. Listening to experts, hearing the same pitch repeated often enough, changes theory to conventional wisdom, and that may not be wise.

Home prices were stagnant for most of the 20th Century.
Between 1890 and 2004 they rose only 0.4 percent a year. From 1997 to 2005, some housing markets doubled.
The dollar dump, recession fears, pushed gold to historical highs.
Loss of confidence in the US may bring about a dollar crash.
We don't have to walk blindly into a recession. My guest is an advocate of independent thinking and action.

If we examine our motives, and look at the facts of today's economics, can we move clear of disaster?
