"THE MORAL URGENCY OF LIFE!"

One delightful recap : Every single Head of the State is bravely acquainted with Sam Daily Times. Most found the word 'Student Angel Mother' out of this world! And they all realized and recognized that this was a serious undertaking in the offing! But I stopped everybody and the Samurai from applauding, because of the suffering, pain, injustice and misery in the world! Had I inherited a better world, I would be with my loved ones, reading, and playing golf. But here I am facing upto lower forms of life!! Oh dear! I can hear fearlessness setting in but more on it later.

Understanding why President Clinton thinks he can accomplish something important as a leader of the world's non-governmental sector is easier after seeing what his foundation's three hundred employees and volunteers are doing in the ground. The place to observe that is in Africa, a continent of special meaning for America's first black president, as Toni Morrison famously called him. It is the home of his most venerable friend, who inspired him to make a rash promise. Tom Hunter, a Glasgow investor and philanthropist , who accompanied Clinton was so impressed with the performance of of Clinton's HIV/AIDS Initiative in these countries, that he had tentatively agreed to donate dollars 100 million to health and education projects over the coming decade.

So then and when the Clinton Global Initiative concluded, after two very full days of panels and workshops and reports. President Clinton was able to announce that the participants, -an extraordinary group that included the Presidents of South Africa, Ukraine, Nigeria, and the Dominican Republic, the Prime Minister of Turkey, the CEOs of GE, Sony, Time Warner, Swiss Re, Goldman Sachs, and Starbucks, the President of World Bank, and a handful of Nobel Winners, and the Leaders of the several of the world's largest nonprofit organizations - has signed agreements to sponsor and finance more than two hundred separate projects valued at nearly $ 2 billion.

They pledged to invest hundreds of million of dollars in renewable energy projects, in credit for small businesses in developing nations, in democracy initiatives in Arab and African countries, in clean water for Ghana, and in terrorism insurance for Gaza, in environmental protection for Tierra del Fuego and in youth employment for the Balkans! Remarkable work and service by any standards.

For this great human, , President Bill Clinton, any perk and ever more are just so easily available to him, regardless of whether he spends months planning and executing the heavy responsibilites he has taken on, which will keep him running, flying, meeting , plotting and strenously raising money, for many decades.God bless you, Sir!

Good night and God bless.
