Lets Begin Leading the Right Way to Win! By Banishing of the Cowardly Way to Win American Votes BY RYAN Richaud HURST
Negative campaigning is wasteful, and way too distracting for the short attention span of the average American citizen. Time is money and words are powerful. Negative campaigning takes the time of some creative and skilled person to do evil or expose evil. The same investment of time and money should be spent on the development of real solutions for real situations and problems. Unproven words cause people to waste time wondering if a person’s current worth should be determined by things that may or may-not have happened. I maintain that it should be a crime to campaign negatively. A precursor to running for any office should be to pledge that you will only speak and advertise on what you have done and what you will do. Then you must choose a method that focuses on the issues at hand and not on useless stuff like a fellow campaigner’s backstory. We are all human, and should be allowed to learn and correct areas of our past. We are usually our own worst critics and spend our lives forever worried about stuff we’ve done that just doesn’t matter anymore and my not have matter to anyone else. The only thing that should matter to voters is who will do the right things to move the United States forward and fulfill the promises they make. Since negative campaigning is also known as mudslinging, I must mention that, like in most fights, when you hit your enemy, your hand can get hurt as well. Although you, the hitter, are braced for the pain, the blood / mud spills over, and clean hands are impossible to sustain. You the mudslinger are weak, but most Americans are really too busy to separate who sponsored the advertisement from the negative words.
For some reason, negative campaigners think that just by printing their names on the advertisement instead of announcing it, or announcing their name at the end of the advertisement in a lower tone, they can reduce dirty hands. Why they think this among so many visual learners is a mystery of its own, however, it is very likely because people like the risk and the fast benefits it falsely promises. They are counting on the average voter to be too busy, to take their words for truth without thought. Sadly, there is evidence to justify this cynical judgment; the people who need to focus on the issues are either too hungry, underemployed, depressed, or just too young to know better, and they need to be protected by banning negative campaigning. It is cruel, and should be illegal, and is just too much of a risk.
America spent a lot of wasted time on “citizenship” in the last election, and in this election so far we are focusing on a candidate’s personal finances. Aren’t these issues address by the process of being elected? Ok, the financial thing maybe of some concern, because I am still trying to figure out how New York voted for term limits, and that vote, somehow did not apply to the current Mayor. Some things in our voting process do make one say hmm…, Oh well, he did learn from his mistake, and he now agrees with term limits for the next person . Yea that’s another Hmm…., All in all, if they do their homework to find out and stick to the needs of the office, and stop trying to pulling down others to lift themselves up, we the leaders of the free world can do our part in making the world a better place. So, I say let’s keep it Real, clean and moving life forward with banning the muck-raking among the potential policy makers.
Okay how many deaths are Celebrities and Non-Celebrities must there be before technology is adopted to re-haul the Prescription Distribution System. We have three Credit Agencies that prevent individual form getting and running up credit.
Wouldn’t the same system work in the distribution of Addictive Medications. Its time to do something and Mandating Legislation to mandate pharmacists to check for multiple prescriptions, drug interactions for every citizen in the American Health System. We don’t hear about these abuses in the UK. However now in the US within the last two years we have lost Michael Jackson, Amy Winehouse and now Whitney Houston. Not to mention the countless number of lives lost every year to overdose or these deadly drug cocktail mixtures.
WCN LifeLine a Division of World Colours Network Television will be advocating such a policy. Look for more information including a Petition for Pharmaceutical Reforms.
If a Credit Bureau can amass the data about your spending habits perhaps the Medical Information Bureau should be empowered and expanded to regulate Prescriptions.

DLet’s examine this industry and why there has never been a better time to learn from the examples set by this great business opportunity.
Here is a little research and why there is something very special about this company and its approach to Global Distribution of Quality Footwear. Remember every great business starts with a great Mission.
Of course inquiring minds what to know about the industry. Check out the incredible upside.
Establishments in this industry are primarily engaged in the retail sale of men’s, women’s, and children’s footwear; these establishments frequently carry accessories, such as gloves, socks, and hosiery.
Industry Snapshot
According to the National Shoe Retailers Association (NSRA) in 2008, the footwear industry generates $48 billion per year, of which independent retailers contribute about $9 billion annually, or approximately 20 percent of footwear distribution.
Establishments in this industry were either chain stores or individually owned stores. The National Retail Federation categorizes the vast majority as franchises that belong to large chain operations. Parent company involvement varies in daily franchise operations. This industry further divides itself into family shoe stores, which sell a broad range of sizes and styles, and specialty shoe stores, where a specific selection (such as athletic footwear or women’s footwear) is offered exclusively. Athletic shoe stores were the largest specialty category. Other outlets, such as department stores, apparel stores, vendor outlet mall stores, and mail-order catalogs, also generate shoe sales.
Every year U.S. consumers spend over $20 billion in footwear. Products sold in this industry fall into several general categories, including athletic footwear, dress shoes, casual shoes, sandals, work/duty footwear, hiking/hunting/fishing boots, western/casual boots, and “other.” In 2006 casual shoes made up 52 percent of the market, athletic shoes made up 31 percent, and rugged and dress shoes accounted for the rest. In 2003 1.97 billion pairs of footwear were sold in the United States. Sales in stores devoted only to footwear earned $22.6 million that year.
According to industry statistics, there were an estimated 29,360 shoe stores valued at more than $27.9 billion with industry-wide employment of about 188,866 workers in 2009. Shoe stores constituted the majority or 69.3 percent of the industry total with sales of an estimated $24.3 billion. The athletic footwear category was responsible for 11.4 percent with shipments totaling $502.7 million. On average, shoe stores employed seven workers who generated sales of about $2.2 billion. The majority of shoe stores were located in California, Florida, New York, Texas, and Pennsylvania.
Of the estimated 30,000 shoe stores reported in 2010, about 50 shoe stores were responsible for 80 percent of industry sales. Women’s casual and dress shoes account for 30 percent of the industry total; men’s athletic shoes constitute 20 percent; men’s casual and dress shoes held 15 percent; and women’s athletic shoes the remaining 10 percent. More than half of shoe retailers are considered family shoe stores, which carry shoes for women, men, and children of various styles.

Don Morse Jr. was a King of a Man, He was a dear dear friend and associate of mine. He will be remembered as a great philanthropist, dedicated family man and someone very dear to the service to the World Community. WCNTV Remembers Don Morse Jr. and say to his family during this difficult time that the joy we have in being connected to such a Lover of Life will live on through us and each day when we remember his touch, his smile and his presence, may the joy of his Spirit sustain us all who knew and loved Don Morse Jr. Rest in Peace. International Goodwill Ambassador Oscar J. Webb.
DON MORSE JR., 70 FREEPORT – On Thursday, Dec. 15, 2011, the world lost a special man – a man many have said was “larger than life.” His presence will never be forgotten as he has touched so many among his family, friends and the community. Don adored his family and welcomed many others to his extended family. A devoted son, brother, husband, father, grandfather and friend, Don will always be remembered for his generosity, his amazing intellect, his twinkling eyes, his quick wit and his infectious smile.
Don had a magnetic personality that would capture the heart of a child, inspire a group of young adults, provide vision for community leaders, and earn the deep respect of business peers and customers. Don was born July 9, 1941, in Freeport, the son of Donald L. and Joyce E. Morse. If he took anything on in life, it quickly became a passion and he wasn’t satisfied until he mastered it. In his early life he enjoyed bowling, tennis, basketball, and was a drummer in the school band.
He had many fond memories of hunting with his father and good friends. He loved cars, 50s music (especially “Chantilly Lace”), skill games and was an avid reader. He graduated from Freeport High School in 1959 and attended the University of Illinois in Urbana-Champaign until the death of his beloved father. After leaving the University of Illinois, he became a journeyman electrician through the IBEW Local 364 in 1967, and shortly thereafter joined his mother in the management of Morse Electric. On April 9, 1973, Don married the love of his life, Janey. During their 38 years together, they raised four children – Lori, Krissy, Scott and Donny, worked side by side to grow a business, and were each other’s best friend and constant companion.
Their welcoming home was full of laughter, warmth, family and friends. Don’s father and mother started Morse Electric in 1944. Don’s father passed away at a young age and Don Jr., went to support his mother at Morse Electric. Together with his mother, brother, Dave, and an amazing group of co-workers, they grew the company to a geographical reach which includes operations in Iowa, Illinois, Wisconsin and Nevada. Over the years, Don’s vision for Morse Electric allowed the company to expand its reach and expertise in the world of electrical construction, engineering, design, maintenance, high voltage work and electrical testing. Today, The Morse Group has expanded to serve customers throughout the United States, Canada and Mexico with services that also encompass sound and lighting, custom assembly, hardware/software integration and energy efficiency.
Don was a life-long supporter of Freeport and its community. Don was a very spiritual man and a member of the First Church of the Open Bible. Over the years, he volunteered his services and talents on the Board of Directors for St. Francis, St. Joseph’s Provena, Highland Community College, Freeport Chamber of Commerce, the Freeport Planning Commission and the Economic Development Board. As a testament to Don’s character and life work, Morse Electric received both the Thomas H. Madigan Outstanding Business Achievement Award and the Illinois Family Business of the Year Awards in 1999. Don was a longstanding member of the Freeport Country Club, sharing his love for golf with his “Royal’s buddies.”
During the last 10 years, Don developed a passion for Arabian horses. He became very active in the Arabian horse community, traveling domestically and abroad, developing deep friendships within his equestrian family. Don gave generously to fellow horsemen who were impacted by various tragedies. Over the last 15 years, Don and Janey split their time between Freeport and Scottsdale, Ariz., where they enjoyed relationships with long term friends from Freeport and made wonderful new friendships.
More than anything else, Don loved his family and friends and enjoyed spending time with all of them. His sense of humor, his informal way, and his commanding presence will be missed by all that knew him. Surviving are his loving wife, Janey; his beloved children, Donald L. Morse III (Gabrielle), Lori Morse Mantua (Gino), Scott Schindlbeck (Heidi), all of Freeport and Kristin Morse of Jensen Beach, Fla.; brother, David Morse (Debbie) of Scottsdale; sister, Joy Fritz of Atlanta; grandchildren, Ashley Albaum, Taylor Strohecker, Matthew Strohecker, Donald L. Morse IV (Sonny), CJ Schindlbeck, Lilian Schindlbeck, Elias Morse; an eagerly anticipated great-grandchild in April; nieces, Pam Lopez, Melinda Vlk, Joanna Carl and Cassandra Morse; brothers-in-law and sisters-in-law, Stan and Cecilia Crippen, Seth and Melissa Crippen, Beth Street and their collective children, Gretchen and Dyke Andreasen, Heidi Hampt and Mark Rockhold, Scott and Leslie Crippen and Eric, Katie and Luke Crippen.
His heartbroken family will always be inspired by his legacy and comforted by their memories of him. Visitation from 2 to 7 p.m. Monday, Dec 19, in Burke-Tubbs Funeral Home, Freeport. Private funeral service will be held Tuesday. In lieu of flowers, please consider a memorial fund to a very special charity to his heart-Malcolm Eaton Enterprises of Freeport, which encourages and assists people with disabilities by creating opportunities which foster independent community living. Arrangements by Burke-Tubbs Funeral Home, 504 N. Walnut Ave., Freeport, IL 61032.

Dr. King: Nonviolence is the Most Powerful Weapon
Click to see the Video.
We are tinkering on the possibility of Martial Law to handle the Crowd Control in NYC. We may be walking into the hands of the Enemy who would destroy the message and credibility of the OWS Movement.
The Tea Party at least Organized itself to be Proactive Politiical Force. OWS may be heading for a Violent Mob which will only result in violence.
The message of Dr. Martin Luther King who led Non Violent Civil Disobedience as a example of how to affect change. The police must keep its Citizen’s Safe as does the Mayor of NYC and other Mayors around the country who won a court victory to evict protestors. I am recommending that we OCCUPY Transmedia ONLINE Daily. http://www.scoop.it/t/occupy-transmedia
The Transmedia Story can be told, organized and financed online so that the 99% can change the financial condition for families so that plans which benefit both Main Street and Wall Street are possible.
Shutting down the City Subway System or the Brooklyn will not accomplish anything but hurt the 99% who use the System. The 1% are taking Limos, Taxis and Private Jets.
We have to be so very careful how the protest and protesters utilize their voices. It makes more sense to Occupy things that would bring not just attention to the movement. That has been successful. Now what’s next. I suggest we Occupy the Internet and use our Buying Power to affect Wall Street Change.
