Consider the Arab Spring, Egyptian elections, deadly Syrian streets and Iranian inspections; Consider the non-collapse of Murdoch & Rush but Lieutenants entombed, evaporating sponsors and exposed tarnished occupational brands; Consider how low the low will go to dilute "United We Stand" and embrace the power of the crowd.

 

Consider FB's endless petitions, groups & greed, LinkedIn discussions, Klout of Stumbleupon and Tweets all atwitter preaching to the choir; consider the disunity of "so many causes, so little time,' vs. reality of only one war over money; Consider rebirth of "Out of Many, One" and embrace the power of the crowd.

 

Consider the numbers: theirs in dollars, ours in souls; Consider friends, relatives and frienemies all citizens of the 99%; Consider "job creation' is not a product of political party or trickle down corporate thinking, and only a bit of small business and government intervention; Consider "We the Customers & Shoppers:' are the magic that creates the jobs, then embrace all of "We the People" as the power of the crowd.

 

Consider the recession driven Greek & American link to Bank of America, CITI and Wells Fargo bound by Bush League and embrace the crowd who pushes SEC investigation of past transgressions, present JPMorgan Chase losses and future Goldman Sachs & Morgan Stanley insider selloffs; Consider we are a people treading and trading in a red sea of nation drowning lies, and embrace the power of the crowd, before we disappear before our eyes.

 

Consider Romney claim we expected Obama's almighty reversal of corporate induced tragedy, blinded by Oprah's tears our fears hoping out loud, we bowed out feeling unneeded, unheeded and having done what's needed; Consider a President juggling dozens of balls way over our heads, easily doubling as

 

White House Correspondents' Dinner "Stand Up' while ordering century's most important hit before bed.

 

Consider our choices: cut taxes for rich using debt ceiling as Capone bat, or end our Left Right civil war with peaceful revolution, embracing the power of the crowd as best solution.

 

Consider when Left, Right and Center begin working on that which we can agree we rehearse the process for future work on that which we are strongly opposed, and embrace the power of the crowd.
