Republicans aren’t happy unless they have somebody to blame. For something. For anything. There has to be an “Other” and it/they has to be the scapegoat for all society’s ills and even a bunch of problems that don’t actually exist. A political party has to be about more than hating people, and blaming people. And that’s all the GOP is these days. Opposition to Obama. Opposition to gay people. Opposition to feminism. Opposition to Muslims. Opposition to Atheists.

"Rob explores the difference between a natural, organic, bottom-up connection consciousness and our corporately imposed top-down hierarchical collective consciousness. What Rob is speaking about is the difference between an artificial and ultimately stagnate way of organizing the world and a natural, organic growth, which starts with a seed, sends downs roots and sends up shoots which blossom. By returning to a Nature-based theory of connection, the Bottom-Up revolution brings us back into alignment with Earths laws, returning humanity to its place in creation. Like a good gardener, Rob works into the soil of his thesis different voices that exemplify how this Bottom-Up revolution is expanding in politics, business, religion, personal self-awareness and story. And he places technology where it belongsas a tool to further our connection consciousness, not an end in itself. The bottom-up revolution is about democracy finally living up to its original ideals, where we the people decide what we need from our society."
