What's most tragic is that this denial of basic education leads to over 1 million unnecessary child and maternal deaths a year. Moreover, children who have never seen the inside of a classroom are precisely those that face the most acute poverty, and should be the prime target of the international community if it is at all serious about realizing the United Nation's Millennium Development Goals of halving extreme poverty by 2015.

It really explains a lot. His cavalier attitude towards imprisonment and even death penalties for people who make the same mistakes with drugs he once personally made, his relentless drive to subvert Democracy via election fraud, his removal of basic human rights for all Americans via the Patriot Act, his support of monopolization of all American Business, his tax giveaways to the wealthy while joblessness and poverty are at a level not seen since the days of Herbert Hoover, and his drive towards world domination via a refusal to build consensus with the rest of the world, have all been written off as neo-conservatism, but in reality, even the hardest of right wing ideologies couldn't account for all of the President's behavior.

The truth of this tragedy is that we have pockets of poverty in the most powerful and affluent nation in the world. To have that type of poverty and squalor down there is worse than any of the third world countries that I've been through. What God has done is exposed us. He exposed a third world country within our country. Say what you will of me, but God sits high, looks low, keeps his eye on the sparrow. He has shown us that we have so much money and so much power to go around the world and solve other peoples' problems but we can't solve our own problems. God has brought that all out tonight.
