What grade(A,B, C,D,F), in your opinion, does this essay deserve?

What grade(A,B, C,D,F), in your opinion, does this essay deserve?
Dear President Obama, We all enjoy a life of luxuries. Even those who can’t afford luxuries have them. However, these “luxuries” come at a heavy price. Cars, gadgets, the internet and electricity have become a part of our daily lives. Humans, who don’t enjoy hard work (no matter what people claim)enjoy the convenience these tool provide us. However, while we are carrying out our functions, getting upset over trivial matters, plotting, scheming, and being human, we forget on whom we are walking on. While we try to destroy others of our own species, we don’t realize that we are also destroying the one who conceived us: Gaea, also known as Mother Earth. We are slowly destroying our home. Like a cancer, the actions that harm the world keep spreading. Also like a cancer, there is a chance the disease will leave, but only with grueling treatments. And now we are standing in front of crossroads. Either we can heal the Earth, or we can watch it slowly die, plunging the world we know into a devastating apocalypse. There are many ways we can cure the disease that the “superior beings” brought on. Even the simplest changes can help us toward our goal of leaving the world the way it was before we poisoned it, plague-free. I won’t bore you with the standard “save water, save energy, save trees” advice. Only God knows how many times people have tried to get people to listen to that message. Truth is that people are hearing the messages, but not listening. The government and many charities are spilling thousands of dollars to try and promote these changes. There is another, more effective way. First, get actors, pop stars, athletes, and other teen idols to promote these changes. Second, put some boundaries on factories and oil companies. Last, try to slowly influence American car companies to become entirely hybrid. You, sir, have the most power to make an actual change in our country, if not the world. Adolescents idolize pop stars and models and athletes. After all, who wouldn’t want to be like them? Get them into the plan. If you get famous, rich people whom every teenager knows they will probably influence adolescents a whole lot more than Public Service Announcements. Adolescence is a great age group to target if we want to save the Earth. After all, they are going to be the future, but they aren’t so young as to be controlled by their parents or guardians. After all, we need to think about the future world. And the best way to construct the future is to have that future make the blueprints. I’m sure no one has forgotten the oil spill that occurred in the Gulf of Mexico not too long ago. When I read that the only “sentence” BP got for the spill was to pay for cleanup and other damage, I was horrified! An oil company such as that one is rolling in money. Money isn’t the solution to everything! And why is it that a person can go to jail for a lot less serious reasons, but a company that killed so many beings can’t? You probably know more about this than I do, but I think it would be a good idea to put some boundaries on factories and oil companies, if only for the sake of our environment. Those companies won’t have any lasting damage if the get a little less money. As President of the United States of America, you have a powerful image. Almost no sane person can contradict you. The best way to use this image to change the world is to influence car companies into becoming hybrid. You could also influence civilians to buy hybrid cars, maybe even possibly create a scheme, such as getting 30% off of a hybrid of their choice if they turn in their old car. If everyone in the country decides to drive hybrid, think of what a difference it could make. Getting everyone to drive hybrid could possibly stop the ozone layer above America from melting(which is bound to happen if we don’t stop burning fossil fuels). I have just given you a few suggestions for saving our beautiful planet. You know how sometimes once optimistic and bright people went depressed and slightly crazy after drug abuse? Well waste is Mother Earth’s drug without the addiction or high. If we keep polluting her, astronauts in space will see the lush greens and sparkling blues we see now, but a dull dirty gray. The most beautiful, thriving planet in the solar system will be reduced to ashes. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The prompt was, "write a letter to obama explaining why it was important to conserve the environment and how can we do it"Im not going to say what grade I actually recieved on it because I dont want to influence anybody's opinion.

Is this what is happening in America?

Is this what is happening in America?
We know Dick Lamm as the former Governor of Colorado. In that context his thoughts are particularly poignant. Last week there was an immigration overpopulation conference in Washington , DC , filled to capacity by many of America 's finest minds and leaders. A brilliant college professor by the name of Victor Hansen Davis talked about his latest book, "Mexifornia," explaining how immigration - both legal and illegal was destroying the entire state of California . He said it would march across the country until it destroyed all vestiges of The American Dream. Moments later, former Colorado Governor Richard D. Lamm stood up and gave a stunning speech on how to destroy America . The audience sat spellbound as he described eight methods for the destruction of the United States . He said, "If you believe that America is too smug, too self-satisfied, too rich, then let's destroy America . It is not that hard to do. No nation in history has survived the ravages of time. Arnold Toynbee observed that all great civilizations rise and fall and that 'An autopsy of history would show that all great nations commit suicide.'" "Here is how they do it," Lamm said: "FIRST, to destroy America , turn America into a bilingual or multi-lingual and bicultural country." History shows that no nation can survive the tension, conflict, and antagonism of two or more competing languages and cultures. It is a blessing for an individual to be bilingual; however, it is a curse for a society to be bilingual. The historical scholar, Seymour Lipset, put it this way: "The histories of bilingual and bi-cultural societies that do not assimilate are histories of turmoil, tension, and tragedy." Canada , Belgium , Malaysia , and Lebanon all face crises of national existence in which minorities press for autonomy, if not independence. Pakistan and Cyprus have divided. Nigeria suppressed an ethnic rebellion. France faces difficulties with Basques, Bretons, and Corsicans.". Lamm went on: SECOND, to destroy America , "Invent 'multiculturalism' and encourage immigrants to maintain their culture. Make it an article of belief that all cultures are equal. That there are no cultural differences. Make it an article of faith that the Black and Hispanic dropout rates are due solely to prejudice and discrimination by the majority. Every other explanation is out of bounds. THIRD, "We could make the United States an 'Hispanic Quebec' without much effort. The key is to celebrate diversity rather than unity. As Benjamin Schwarz said in the Atlantic Monthly recently: "The apparent success of our own multiethnic and multicultural experiment might have been achieved not by tolerance but by hegemony. Without the dominance that once dictated ethnocentricity and what it meant to be an American, we are left with only tolerance and pluralism to hold us together." Lamm said, "I would encourage all immigrants to keep their own language and culture. I would replace the melting pot metaphor with the salad bowl metaphor. It is important to ensure that we have various cultural subgroups living in America enforcing their differences rather than as Americans, emphasizing their similarities." "FOURTH, I would make our fastest growing demographic group the least educated. I would add a second underclass, unassimilated, undereducated, and antagonistic to our population. I would have this second underclass have a 50% dropout rate from high school." "My FIFTH point for destroying America would be to get big foundations and business to give these efforts lots of money. I would invest in ethnic identity, and I would establish the cult of 'Victimology.' I would get all minorities to think that their lack of success was the fault of the majority. I would start a grievance industry blaming all minority failure on the majority population." "My SIXTH plan for America 's downfall would include dual citizenship, and promote divided loyalties. I would celebrate diversity over unity. I would stress differences rather than similarities. Diverse people worldwide are mostly engaged in hating each other - that is, when they are not killing each other. A diverse, peaceful, or stable society is against most historical precedent. People undervalue the unity it takes to keep a nation together. Look at the ancient Greeks. The Greeks believed that they belonged to the same race; they possessed a common Language and literature; and they worshipped the same gods. All Greece took part in the Olympic games. A common enemy, Persia , threatened their liberty. Yet all these bonds were not strong enough to overcome two factors: local patriotism and geographical conditions that nurtured political divisions. Greece fell. "E. Pluribus Unum" --From many, one. In that historical reality, if we put the emphasis on the 'plu

Is it wrong for Colleges to have communist leaders speak at the college?

Is it wrong for Colleges to have communist leaders speak at the college?
I had recently heard of a professor of some college that invited the leader of Iran to come over to our country and speak at the college. I feel that since Iran is in bed with North Korea, and North Korea was just busted because they were making and distrubiting counterfiet American Money in the United States and Iran is very vocal about being anti-American, this guy should not be allowed to speak in our Universities, and the Idoit that invited him should be tossed out of the Country or thrown in jail because I feel that he is a security threat to our Nation. People like that are threats to this wonderful country and they need to be dealt harshly with, because they sacriface the saftey of all the other people in America. When they sacriface our saftey, I feel that they should loose their rights. Just like criminals, when their actions harm or hinder another persons rights they should loose all of their rights. This is how we need to treat this college professor. He's a Trader!

No, neither the president of Iran or the professor should have anything bad happen to them. First of all, the leader of Iran IS NOT going to commit a crime while he is here. He will always be surrounded by police and secret service agents. Second, I doubt he would come for fear of assassination. Yes, he is a tyrant and all that, but what is going to happen if he comes? He's going to talk sh*t and a bunch of college students are going to boo him off stage? The leader of Iran meets with American and World leaders all the time. He is a world leader, not a terrorist (not directly anyway). He will try to give a motivational speech about how Iran is trying to be peaceful, it will be a facade and no one will believe him, and maybe he'll do some questions and answers that'll catch him off guard. Props to the professor. When you refuse to listen to your enemies side, why should they listen to you? When you refuse to hear their word, you too are causing violence in our world. A lack of communication and understanding causes a lot of problems in our world. Take what the leader of Iran says with a grain of salt and know that he is evil, but take the opportunity to listen to someone the whole world has their eye on.
2 :
I feel that you represent everything that is wrong with America today. First, the syntax, spelling and grammar of the above rant is something that I would expect to see from an eigth grader, and a poorly educated one at that. Second, it shows that you are very closed minded, to the point of being a bigot. Third, it's obvious that you didn't go to the lecture to hear what this person had to say, and yet you condemn it. Free speech shouldn't be limited to the 'warm, fuzzy' stuff. It's important to hear ALL sides of EVERY issue before making up your mind.
3 :
Wow. How is someone who has an idea they want to talk about a physical security threat? Those are the only ones we should be concerned about. This is America. It's perfectly acceptable to have opposing views and to express them in the appropriate places, such as when you are invited to speak at a college.
4 :
A college is supposed a free marketplace of ideas. People who are old enough to go to college are old enough to listen for themselves to all sides of a question and make up their own minds. We believe in freedom of speech in the US, and that doesn't just mean freedom of speech for those who agree with you, it means for everyone.
5 :
It's really a major ethics case. I agree with you 100% that it is wrong for this so-called professor to invite the leader of Iran into this country, let alone our colleges. The problem is that there are also a lot of far-left extremists who think there is nothing wrong with the ways of a communist country and even insist that the U.S. converts to communism. Therefore, no ethics are being violated (in their minds). **For those who believe that this question is ignorant, I'd like to ask you if you'd let Hitler (if he were alive) into our country so that he can speak to our college students?
6 :
in order to make good judgement in our lives, dont u think its a good idea to hear both sides? CRITICAL THINKING is what school attempts to teach us.
7 :
No its not because there is freedom of speech and just because he is a communist does not mean that he is going to try to convert people to communism. That college is not so smart in inviting him because right now we are having some serious issues with Iran over their nuclear weapons program
8 :
Supposedly we live in a democracy, not in a democratic dictatorship.
9 :
While Bruce J's words were a tad rough, I agree with him. This professor should NOT, under any circumstances, be thrown in prison just because he wants to expose his students to other points of views throughout the world. While we may not agree with a lot of Iran's president has to say, he has the right to say it, especially since he's a head of state, on his own soil, not ours. But he's a non-issue compared to the idea that you want to throw the professor in jail. The professor has done nothing illegal, and just because, you do not agree with what he's doing, does not make it wrong. And he is certainly not a traitor, and does not deserve to go to jail. And he is most likely a U.S. citizen, and cannot be "kicked out". Doing either of these is something Iran would probably do, not the U.S. And we don't need to be like Iran. Also, I don't think he's a Communist. More like a thorn in a very fleshy area of the body.
10 :
In my opinion allowing communist leaders speak at the college can be allowed subject to some restrictions such as it must not devole on the communist ideology and the nothing must be stated as against the college where he or she will speak. Further, the college must ensure the safety of the speaker specially in schools where there are many anti communist.
11 :
You are so full of it. You keep going on about 'Freedom' and how you are going to 'bring' it to the rest of the world and then you start attacking freedom of speech. Unbelievable!!
12 :
"The only communists left in North America are the teachers at American universities and Castro in Cuba." Don't know who said it, but the actions and words of a lot of college professors are proving it to be true. I agree, these people are so anti-American that they are traitors and should be forced to live in Iran or North Korea or Afganistan or Iraq or Darfur or Mexico, etc....Wonder if they could live without electricity and running water?
13 :
Dear gigi exchange of ideas and learning is what higher learning is all about.I know that ignorance can be bliss sometimes but Iran is not a communist state.The fear of ideas is what has gotten us into the mess we are in now with leaders who can not speak their mother tongues leading people who wear political affiliations on their sleeve.We need a lot more free thinkers in our midst and that is what college would do.Don't be afraid of `decent,bring all ideas and concepts into the light so we can expose them or we live like Napoleon and his bunch "four legs good Two legs bad"

Yes, it is a scam. They tell you that customers must send payments to you and you will process them and keep your part and send on the balance. They then send you counterfeit payments, you deposit in your bank, send money to them, then in about 2 months the manure hits the fan, and you owe thousands to your bank! If you ask them to guarantee that you can cash these checks at the bank it is drawn on, you will never hear from them again - they will know you are on to them.

Considering that WorldCom no longer exists as WorldCom (it is now MCI, a subsidiary of Verizon), that screams out scam...also the grammatical mistakes would also have me in doubt. Also note that Capital Services Management is basically a debt collection agency and the various internet reports regarding the company suggest that they do debt collection for many telecom companies. Note also that the job offer does not exactly say what services you will be providing the iCommerce customers - in fact, a broad wording could be that you contact those with past due bills and try to get them to pay the bills using the iCommerce system.

I recieved one of these emails also...and everything about it screams SCAM!! Has anyone contacted Wells Fargo and followed up on it with them.

Definitely, it sounds and smells like a major scam. I'd pass on this opportunity. Good luck!

Imagine you were the President, and I had a proposition for you...what would you think?
Imagine you were the President of the United States of America. And you needed some money. So instead of having to go to Congress for the authority to print more money, you instead came to me. And I tell you that I will give you any amount of money that you want, and that you wouldn't even have to pay me back. The American people eventually will pay me back. And because the citizens don't like taxes, we decide that instead of it being a direct tax, it will be an indirect tax caused by inflation due to the fact that you're letting me print more money. So I print a trillion dollars for you, give it to you with a nice big bow on it, and say, here you go. You spend the money, and it trickles down into the hands of your people. Now, people are jumping for joy, because there's more money in the system and everyone appears richer. And even though the value of the dollar will go down since we just added a trillion extra dollars into the system, it's no big deal, since the people will never realize that they have to pay a hidden tax due to the inflation. In addition to this, since most of the money is going to be in the form of low interest bank loans, the people and businesses will have lots of money to borrow and be locked in a lifetime of servitude. Eventually, Mr. President, every big corporation in the world will be owing you money. So, if you were the president, what would you think? You get all the money you want, and because my hands are getting dirty, you don't need to tarnish the delicate system of checks and balances. Plus, as an added bonus, you'll make the economy look better, all while secretly ripping off the very people that fall in love with you. Sounds great, right? Now imagine if you were that American citizen or business.
