“Hers to Keep”

From “Back to Arrow Head Trail; all hers to keep”
Grandma lay in them fields long with gramps and most of their kin folk moved on since the mills in Cricket Creek and Thunderbolt shut down after the timber, well was sold. The way of life moved on and the land fell back into the hands of banks. Whats folks is stayed seems now all’s left is fetching Cats in them Willows down on by Jessie’s Pond near them tracks over Goat Holler Springs. Took mom doctor’s last week seems them pills ain’t doing much; doctor says she may need to get put in that home yonder pace in Harmony Valley were’s auntie Mildred wuz after Uncle John passed away from that miner’s Lung.
Went out to old man Bo’s Swamp last night caught us some big ‘ol’ cats just around midnight; that Moon so full you could snatch ’em’ all night long. Now I ain’t seen no crocks, them there’s some deep waters, down in yonder Piney Hollow’s won’t catch me foolin though Missy Jo and her Coon Bob say them woods is full of “em’.
Why, oh why, it all turns to ash; the nights grow cold now’s timber’s all gone them ol’bones buried neath holding all in. Don’t seem right they bout to speak at times a whispering in the chill, walking long them trails neath ye ‘ol’ moon swears she watches o’er thems; like thems all her own now to keep.
A Greedy Self Serving Mankind; Worshipping Amongst the Synagogues of Satan
By John R. Hernandez, Jr. © 2011 http://www.newdawnmedia.wordpress.com http://www.newdawncommunications.blogspot.com
You ever ask yourself why do the greedy and naive scum of the earth always seem to rise to the top, while the pure and most blessed of souls have to grumble down in the muck and mire to make a living down here on God’s green earth? You ever wonder why humanity allows millions of unborn babies to be dumped down the toilet every year; unwanted, unloved, despised for what little life they represent to the ungodly and despicable amongst us? You ever wonder why hatred and envy is so prevalent today; why video games and pornography is so popular; why drugs and alcohol are the choicest ways of facing reality; why children are abandoned as are the elderly; why the greedy seem to just get greedier. Everyday we pass someone on the streets and we may smile or look the other way or stare uneasily; we go home we turn on the boob tube and watch someone’s life rolled out before us and then we watch as the experts dissect the true meaning of their malaise and then lay it all out before us. We peer into the smallest minutest particles of DNA to get to the bottom of whom or why this person did what he/she did to that other person. We preoccupy our minds, we push it all out and fill it back again with everything we think we like and everything we believe fits neatly into the world we have created for ourselves. But have we ever really asked the question; is this the world we want to live in? Is this the world we truly have created or is it a world that has been diabolically crafted just for our consumption, for our taste buds, to direct and control the pains and yearnings of our compulsive behaviors?
You know what people want most of all? Someone they can depend on and who will not betray them; someone who won’t smile in front of their face while behind those eyes detests the ground they stand on. This is what people want. They want to build networks of friends all around the globe, if possible. Friends who will be there for them in times of need with prayer, love and material help. Instead they rely on the big corporations to do it all for them and they believe their lies all the while the top most wealthy get wealthier and arrogantly thumb their noses at them. Telling them they deserve their riches; all those cars, boats, homes, money in the bank, properties, businesses, jewelry, clothes –because- they feel they worked hard for what they got. We live in a greedy self serving world where pain and suffering is a way of life for so many out there. There are so few in high places that truly care for those at or near the bottom and what little we or they have down here they want to hold unto. To keep the rest of us away from their grain of wealth, from their private little miserable world, alienating the rest of us around them never realizing that what little they may have and what little we may have is slowly corroding. Slowly fading away, slowly drifting from ours and their hands –because- through that dust storm of hatred and despair -there are many up on top- who would like to see that little bit of charity or love or help taken away.

ON THE PALESTINIAN-ISRAEL ISSUE
To those who support the Palestinian because I say this; after you’re done killing every Jew and pushing them into the Sea and raping their children and torturing their elderly and burning down their lands. What are you going to do when -Jesus the Jew- stands before all of you with all the Hosts of Heaven upon the Mount of Olives? Where are you going to hide? Where are you going to run to? Are you going to run to Facebook and spit one last time in the face of another Jew? You can’t erase the face of Jesus from Jerusalem!!! But, since he died for the sins of the world it isn’t -too late yet- to repent and be free of all your hatred! Don’t wait till it’s too late; I hear there is no end to the torment of HELL!!

“You have heard that it was said, “You shall love your neighbor and hate your enemy.” But I say to you, Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you, so that you may be sons of your Father who is in heaven; for he makes his sun rise on the evil and on the good, and sends rain on the just and on the unjust.” Mathew-
Start>>>The following excerpt is borrowed from yahooanswers.com and was posted by Bill:
“The record of the Vatican in relationship to the Holocaust is one of the great moral failures in history—one from which the Catholic Church itself has yet to recover,” writes columnist James Carroll in The Boston Globe. To back up his point, he lists the following historical data: “1929—The Lateran Pacts between Mussolini and Pius XI give the Vatican freedom and money, and they give needed prestige to Mussolini. [1933]—The Vatican signs a Concordat with Hitler, his first international success. . . . 1935—Mussolini invades Abyssinia. Catholic bishops bless Italian troops. . . 1939—Mussolini decrees an end to the rights of Jews in Italy. The pope says nothing. . . . 1942—The pope receives reports from Italian army chaplains about the extermination of the Jews. In his Christmas message, he bemoans the fate of ‘unfortunate people’ killed because of their race, but he does not mention Hitler, Germany or the death camps. Once again, the word ‘Jew’ is not used. . . . 1943—Germans begin to round up Jews in Italy, even in Rome near the Vatican. The pope is still silent.”
Why the Churches Kept Silent
ON DECEMBER 8, 1993, Dr. Franklin Littell of Baylor University spoke at the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum about a troublesome “concrete truth.” What was that?
“The truth, Littell said, was that “six million Jews were targeted and systematically murdered in the heart of Christendom, by baptized Roman Catholics, Protestants, and Eastern Orthodox who were never rebuked, let alone excommunicated.” One voice, however, did consistently speak out about clergy involvement with Hitler’s regime. And the voice, as we have seen, was that of Jehovah’s Witnesses. Holocaust was the state-sponsored, systematic persecution and annihilation of European Jewry by Nazi Germany and its collaborators between 1933 and 1945.” Jews were the primary victims, but the State policy also sought to eliminate Roma and Sinti (two gypsy tribes), the disabled, Poles, Soviet prisoners of war, homosexuals, Jehovah’s Witnesses, and political dissidents. ”

Start>>>Excerpt borrowed from Wikipedia:
“In 1947, the British government announced it would withdraw from the Mandate of Palestine, stating it was unable to arrive at a solution acceptable to both Arabs and Jews. [68] The newly created United Nations approved the Partition Plan for Palestine (United Nations General Assembly Resolution 181) on November 29, 1947, which sought to divide the country into two states—one Arab and one Jewish. Jerusalem was designated to be an international city—a corpus separatum—administered by the UN.[69] The Jewish community accepted the plan,[70] but the Arab League and Arab Higher Committee of Palestine rejected it.[71] On December 1, 1947, the Arab Higher Committee proclaimed a three-day strike, and Arab bands began attacking Jewish targets.[72] The Jews were initially on the defensive as civil war broke out, but they gradually moved onto the offensive.[73] The Palestinian Arab economy collapsed and 250,000 Palestinian-Arabs fled or were expelled.[74] David Ben-Gurion proclaiming Israeli independence on May 14, 1948, below a portrait of Theodor Herzl
On May 14, 1948, the day before the expiration of the British Mandate, the Jewish Agency proclaimed independence, naming the country Israel.[75] The following day, the armies of four Arab countries —Egypt, Syria, Lebanon and Iraq — attacked Israel, launching the 1948 Arab–Israeli War;[76][77] Saudi Arabia sent a military contingent to operate under Egyptian command; Yemen declared war but did not take military action.[78] After a year of fighting, a ceasefire was declared and temporary borders, known as the Green Line, were established.[79] Jordan annexed what became known as the West Bank and East Jerusalem, and Egypt took control of the Gaza Strip. Over 700,000 Palestinians were expelled or fled from Israel during the conflict. Israel was accepted as a member of the United Nations by majority vote on May 11, 1949.[80] In the early years of the state, the Labor Zionist movement led by Prime Minister David Ben-Gurion dominated Israeli politics.[81][82] These years were marked by an influx of Holocaust survivors and Jews from Arab lands, many of whom faced persecution in and expulsion from their original countries.[83] Consequently, the population of Israel rose from 800,000 to two million between 1948 and 1958.[84] Some arrived as refugees with no possessions and were housed in temporary camps known as ma’abarot; by 1952, over 200,000 immigrants were living in these tent cities.[85] The need to solve the crisis led Ben-Gurion to sign a reparations agreement with West Germany that triggered mass protests by Jews angered at the idea that Israel could accept monetary compensation for the Holocaust.[86] In the 1950s, Israel was frequently attacked by Palestinian Fedayeen, mainly from the Egyptian-occupied Gaza Strip.[87] In 1950 Egypt closed the Suez Canal to Israel. There was mounting tension and a number of armed clashes took place along all of Israel’s borders. In 1956, Israel joined a secret alliance with Great Britain and France aimed at regaining control of the Suez Canal, which the Egyptians had nationalized (see the Suez Crisis). Israel overran the Sinai Peninsula but was soon pressured to withdraw by the United Nations in return for guarantees of Israeli shipping rights in the Red Sea and the Canal.[88][89]In the early 1960s, Israel captured Nazi war criminal Adolf Eichmann in Argentina and brought him to back to Israel for trial.[90] The trial had a major impact on public awareness of the Holocaust,[91] but Eichmann remains the only person ever to be executed by order of an Israeli court.[92]”

Worshipping at the Altar of Selfishness and Hatred
By John R Hernandez, Jr. on Tuesday, July 5, 2011 at 9:52pm
But the GREATEST of these is Love; embedded attributes of human emotions gone awry
Written and Edited by John R. Hernandez, Jr. 7/11 http://www.newdawnmedia.wordpress.com http://www.newdawncommnuications.blogspot.com
Hate forces us to discard the unwanted; too lazy walk down to the Goodwill or Salvation Army Box, to offer it to our neighbors or the strangers down the road. No, it’s much easier to just throw it all away; so noone can get to it. This is how we treat our relationships; we use them and we squeeze them, till they can’t take it no more or until we’re sick and tired; and then we dump them out into the streets for someone else to pick them up and do worst things to them. Repeating the circle of hate over and over again. We love our children or so we pretend, until no one is around and then we light the cigarette, we pop the beer bottle open and kick back on the couch to watch the latest sports channel or soap opera ignoring, their solitude and pain. We plan and scheme our way out of everything; too sick to make it to church for the sixth time in a row, too tired to look in on the elderly neighbor, too arrogant to pitch in and help with the dishes; or show someone the affection they so desperately need and deserve. Blindly following the norms dictated to us by a pretentious and shallow consumer society; our nails must be done exactly like they do it in that fashion mag, our suits must be tailored to the right fit we see in the fashion shows, how we talk and how we walk, who we choose as friends and who we choose to ignore; what school we attend, the latest tattoo, the latest fad. After all it tells them who we are on the outside. But, is that really who we are on the inside? Behind it all; lay the simmering embers of a burning anger, an incomplete desire to want to let go; a compulsion to attain, to get more, to be the best, to stand above the crowd, to give ground to no one; to nurture and feed the hate!

In Support of Non-Custodial Fathers!!! God Bless All of You and Happy Fourth of July 2011!!!
By John R Hernandez, Jr. on Monday, July 4, 2011 at 6:39pm
To All CRFN Members,
In reply to the rhetoric that went for supporting the rights of fathers
It would of been a better message if it would have included the guarantee that one day Non-Custodial Fathers will get all the rights they deserve -which- for far too long have been denied to them by the oppressive practice of Parental Alienation; both from custodial parents -as well as- under the Corrupt American Family Court System! But, that’s right-yeh- Non-Custodial Fathers don’t have big pockets; since the majority of them are paying through the ying-yang -to warrant- any support from today’s so-called crusaders for family…!

Remember Your First Love; Whose God is he?
By John R. Hernandez, Jr. http://www.newdawnmedia.wordpress.com http://www.newdawncommunications.blogspot.com
As I look around this world I see so much hatred, scoffing, and apathy. People living one way on church day and another the rest of the week. I see parents spending little time with their children when they should be there to help them with their homework; making sure it gets done right the first time. Helping them to become productive citizens. Helping them to learn to play and instrument or become better linguists. I see children ignoring the needs of their parents now that they are grown and on their own. Because, the parents that helped to raise them are way too easily abandoned and caged in private care facilities; forgotten to their eyes. I hear the cries of those who live in homeless shelters with no hope; but, to just get through another night in what seems more like a living hell to them. I see warriors come back home broken and crippled, living desperate lives, shunned from the public eye and left to wallow in the muck and mire of confusion and pain. I see the eyes of mothers abandoned, forced to seek out an existence; when we should be there. We turn our faces and walk away. How much pain and terror must we face before our hearts break from the suffering and torment of this human family? We are called to recognize and comfort the afflicted, the aggrieved, those who suffer persecution and those who as a result natural phenomenon or as a result of human interaction; human failure, or mechanical error are heart broken. Inadvertent, accidents happen all the time. But, when we as a church; as those called out by Almighty God to come together and pray for those in the congregation, to admonish (to rebuke, to educate the flock in God’s way’s, to instruct, to edify, to lift up, to feed the hungry, to open the eyes of those blindly living their lives..). It is because of these, that his great love is poured out unto us as a congregation and those we send out. That is our great commission, our first love, as brothers and sisters in faith. But, when we begin to go out on our own and put God sort of in a box and sit ourselves up high and pretend we are in control. This is a great mistake! That many churches make. When Christ speaks to the church at Ephesus he castigates it for its failure to recognize who is in control and the reason why they took the oath of Faith. And the admonition goes to all congregants; because it may sound strange to you but all of us in the body are stewards of that body and partakers of the responsibility to edify and to rebuke as necessary each and every member –regardless- of position or tile. Whenever we ignore the needs of those less fortunate we ignore the love of God. Whenever, we pretend the poor around us don’t exist, we deny the love of God exists. Whenever we fail to offer a helping hand to someone we otherwise would rather not bother with, we act as if the love of God didn’t exist in us. This is what Christ is saying to Ephesus, you have lost your first love. Often times we replace that Love we the love for fornication, for alcohol, for gambling, for money, for everything that our weak and helpless flesh wrongfully allows. “Don’t forget” Jesus says to us! And remember that if Jesus be with us who can be against us! For we are more than conquerors in Christ who strengthens us. There are some that are called to comfort and instruct, others to edify and build, some to be disciples, others deacons, some to the mission fields of life; But all of us are called equally for one purpose as was Ephesus. To bring the love and joy of our faith and our way of life to those whose lives have been shattered; to help free the captives (addicted), bring site to the blind (in faith) and to proclaim the coming day of our Lord and Savior (His return to Rule and to Judge). Some people treat God as if he was one of their buddies. Like the friend at work, or the one they hunt with or just anybody. Some people fail to recognize who they are addressing. Who they are talking to and before whose presence they stand. The biggest mistake the church at Ephesus made and the main reason Christ himself had to have a face to face with them was and is because they began to take God for granted! Of course we all have read the Bible; we all know by the countless examples of fire and brimstone God raising his hand and slaughtering Israel’s enemies by the millions. And we also have first and second hand accounts of the times Almighty God had to step in and rebuke sinners. He even tearfully at times after long lamentations and great callings; had to punish and even exterminate many Jews. Convicting them of worshipping idols; of not following his rules of engagement, of becoming haughty and arrogant and -oh yes- for that seemingly innocent offense of taking him for granted. We are not forced to be perfect but we are asked to cleanse our minds, wash our garments clean; in order that we may present ourselves a just and perfect sacrifice. Go out into the world and make disciples of men. Why? Because, we live in a lost and dying world. Behold I stand and knock, if anyone should listen and open unto me I will come in and sit with him and fellowship with him or her or them and teach them my ways. I am the way the truth and the life; no one come to the father but through me. He who believes in me I will give him to drink from the rivers of living water. For the day will come that you will not worship in flesh but in spirit and in truth; and he will wipe away every tear from their eyes, and take away all of their sorrows and be their God.
Have a Blessed Day!

“Universal DECLARATION OF Human Rights “Everyone has the right to freedom of opinion and expression; this right includes freedom to hold opinions without interference and to seek, receive and impart information and ideas through any media and regardless of frontiers.”
Today freedom of speech, or the freedom of expression, is recognized in international and regional human rights law. “The right is enshrined in Article 19 of the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights, Article 10 of the European Convention on Human Rights, Article 13 of the American Convention on Human Rights and Article 9 of the African Charter on Human and Peoples’ Rights.[8] Based on John Milton‘s arguments, freedom of speech is understood as a multi-faceted right that includes not only the right to express, or disseminate, information and ideas, but three further distinct aspects: • the right to seek information and ideas; • the right to receive information and ideas; • the right to impart information and ideas.[8]”

The Oppression of Parental Alienation and the Negatively Biased Anti-Fatherhood Family Court System are the Reasons Why Some Men Just Give Up!
By John R. Hernandez, Jr. 7/11 (c) http://www.newdawnmedia.wordpress.com http://www.newdawncommunications.blogspot.com
“First they threw out prayer in schools along with the bible, then they threw out the pledge of allegiance, then they came for our unborn and threw them into waste receptacles like yesterday’s garbage, then they created a massive bureaucratic family court system -which- singlehandedly guarantees to all states and to all women a nice fat check for every man they file a lawsuit of child support on; ultimately helping to place the final wedge between fathers and their children” JRH-2011
John R Hernandez, Jr.
Those who know of me know how much I love my children and they sure dang know what hell I have been put through by the system and the two mothers of my children. We are all human beings and we all make mistakes. I’ve made mine; God knows I made two big mistakes with those two. But, I have never brought shame or hurt to any one of them or to their door. I have walked away, lived my life and left people alone to sort out their own misery and mistakes. I have paid dearly for only wanting one thing. To have what every decent sane man should dream of and want. God knows I try to be a good Christian as far as patience will allow. I did my best with my oldest child, though she grew up in a single family home; I spent most of my time there playing with her, taking her to the park, the zoo, the amusement parks, and the sea shore; in effect I was there and I saw her grow up and shared greatly in her life. Her mother never pushed me away or alienated me from her. And she made every effort to come with her and visit and if I wasn’t there I knew there would be a note on my door letting me know she came by. I would have to say we had a good relationship. Because, I allowed it to be for 15 years of Katie’s life. I was there! I contributed what I could. I paid my support and still spent out of the other pocket on my daughter and if the mother needed something I did my best to get it for her. Even though I knew deep inside I had been railroaded by the family court system. I tried to live a clean life and made sure to never let my daughter see me with another woman. So she would never have to hear the words “your dad is a woman chaser”. I wanted her to remember me in a good way as a good father, a good example in her life. Just as I remember days like this one. It was after working the all night shift I went over to her and her mom’s home. I’d fallen asleep on the couch for an hour or so it was about 8: am and I jumped up. Because, this was her first day of kindergarten and I knew I had to be there. Her mother and I walked her to the school bus stop. I helped her get on the bus, and just as she got to the top of the stairs on that bus she did a 160 degree circle and said to me, “Wrong bus!” My heart fell somewhere between my stomach I know not where. It was all I could do to hold the lump in my throat and I said, “No baby this is the right bus, here let me introduce you to your new bus friend” and she said hello to the other girl sitting there by herself and sat next to her and they smiled at each other. I said, “Bye-bye I’ll see you later baby”. The bus rolled on down the road as I held the tears as best I could. Her mom smiled and we walked away with another precious memory of our little girl’s first experience on her first day of Kindergarten. After that first day at school I would take her to school or her mom would. And we both would go visit and let her know we loved her and wanted to be near her; as she learned to get used to school life. I used to love to buy her things with what little I had. I remember she would love to model for me and I would encourage her. I got a picture of her modeling for me where she looked like both Little Bo Beep and Shirley Temple in it. I remember when I ordered the cardboard doll house for her. I thought to myself it wasn’t wood but she might like it just the same because somewhere I saw a part of me in her. Well, the day came and I brought the package over to her and we both put it together. She was tickled pink! She loved her doll house even though it was cardboard. It still meant the world to her and she had many months and years of fun with it and all the toys. I and her mother and grandmother got for her to go along with her special doll house. Another memory was that I used to love taking her to buy toys and things and take drives and one day while on a toy drive I stopped at Kay-Bee Toys at the Mall. Well, we walked around that store for what seemed like hours me pushing the cart around those aisles of toys and more toys. The cart was full and I stopped by the end of one aisle and had a word with her. It went like this, “Now hon you know we can’t afford all these things so why don’t we pick out a few things we like the most and let’s get out of here” And she said, “Okay daddy” and I followed her as she led me back all around and she would take things out of her cart and putting them back on the shelves. When we finally got to the counter a young woman asked, “Will that be all?” And out of nowhere Katie pulled a sock full of change out of her little pocketbook and swung it on the counter and asked the cashier, “Will this be enough?” It was one of those many moments again when my heart fell back between my stomach somewhere as the lump in my throat grew heavy. One of these days I’ll try and post some of the pictures of Katie and I back; when we were us.
An Informed Decision Based on the Facts and Not One Skewed by Bias Makes for a Better Argument: A Rebuttal to the President’s Father’s Day Message and My Suggestions
By John R. Hernandez, Jr. 6/11 © http://www.newdawnmedia,wordpress.com http://www.newdawncommunications.blogspot.com
Our US Constitution Guarantees us the Right to Speak Out Mr. President; you need to get the facts straight before you speak out on a subject you obviously know little about. I mean you know about raising your children and it’s obvious we both come from single parent homes. But I have look at my father and his gift of life to me as a sacred one. Yes, you know how to be -as you put it- a good father to your children. But, you have no idea why some men cannot be in their father’s lives. That is an issue that must be taken on a case- by- case- basis. Once all the facts are gathered then you can make informed statements-based- on the information before you –about- certain groups or members of certain groups -in this case- fathers. The generalized statement that fathers may be bad because they are absent from their children’s lives is a blank statement to deter attention from the real facts that need your further attention. Who is it that you don’t want to rock their boat? Sometimes in leadership one has to rock someone’s boat to get them to take a close look at their actions and practices and see if they need to be changed based on the facts presented. To insinuate that men that are absent from their children’s lives are “bad men” is an insult to people you have no facts about. If a man is not in his children’s lives it can only be for three reasons. He can’t be, he doesn’t want to be or he is being alienated from his children. But to make rash statements without first knowing the real facts of a situation is to put a further wedge between men -that you have no factual knowledge about- and a society who for far too long has been made to think that non-custodial fathers or absent fathers have done something wrong. And then you ask men to step up and be good fathers as if a man that is not in his child’s life is a bad man -without knowing- the facts of the case. I don’t know of any man that in his heart does not love his child. But, to make rash statements without facts is to malign people you don’t know anything about. First, investigate the situation before you open you jump to conclusions or to offer solutions. First, get some information on -Parental Alienation- which some parents but, mostly non-custodial fathers -in particular- have had to be subjected to. Because, it’s one of the main reasons –many- fathers cannot be in their children’s lives. Parental alienation doesn’t just have to come from the mother, it can come from any authority figure in that child’s life-that is suppressing- a fathers ability to spend time with that child. Go to-angiemedia.com- and get the facts before you make a statement that will appear as a broad or general judgment on people you don’t know. Go to -parentalrights.org- and get the facts. Millions of men out there deal with issues concerning Visitation, Equal Parenting, Joint Custody and many others with the mothers of their children. Some men are subjected to situations when dealing with their ex’s that exhibit patterns of anti -social behavior and which have been clinically associated to symptoms of Parental Alienation. Many men every day are trying to get the word out that this nation’s family court system needs to be reformed. It needs a broader look into its practices towards non-custodial fathers. Many men out there are suffering day by day the emotional stress of being alienated from their children, they are helpless. Because, the majority of the courts ignore their issues. Directly suppressing them from having the kind of relationship they need and want to have with their children. There are many valid organizations out there that are speaking out against -a disease- that is way too prevalent -today- within the realm of father’s and children’s relationships. Some of these organizations are championing causes like family court reform and equal parenting. But I believe they need to go a step further and fight for stricter accountability of funds men must pay to the custodial parent in order to get a better picture of where the money is going, and I believe also that a routine drug test (within reason of course) should be implemented to all if not most custodial parents -in most if not all- cases. Along with the creation of a system to help parents deal with their visitation and custody matters without the need to deride or ridicule men in family courts! I believe in order to make informed decisions that pretend to support the best interest of children one needs to get the facts before generalizing men’s characters! Offering a pass to a zoo or a ticket to an amusement park falls short of helping to deal with the major problems facing men and women today when it comes to their children. When for far too many the problem has been shown to be -alienation and the oppression- inflicted upon them by a rouge family court system. Men are not bad fathers because they are not spending time with their children; when there are cases out there totally the opposite of what you may have in mind. My concern for -the past 30 years- has been to find someone, who will listen, -someone- with an open intellect and not one whose priorities are skewed -clouded -by biased decisions others have or may have impressed upon that individual. I wanted to find someone that would make the right decisions on the issues both parents are facing without having to make them based on some of the facts or not all of the facts presented. And certainly I did not want to find someone whose ideals and values where colored by the ideals and values of those around him or her. Who, obviously are not acting in the best interest of resolving the issue before them based on the weight of the facts and preponderance of the evidence set presented. To make decisions that affect the lives of millions of children and their fathers –simply- because you want to appease those under you is the opposite of what I was looking for. I wanted someone who was willing to stand up above the crowd and rule justly and righteously and with reason.
I wanted someone that would stand -separate and apart- and make decisions based on the facts and not to just tow the line and follow the rest of the crowd he belongs to. A president or general or king must not let those around him sway his decisions. This is the way he will show to the people that he is a -just and fair leader- who is willing to act in the best interest of the people. And not the special interests of a particular court or organization or people whose facts are skewed and biased.
Excerpt from,
“The Demonization of Fatherhood and Alienation from Parenting; One Fathers Struggle to Change a Broken System”
By John R. Hernandez, Jr. © 2008
I felt blessed to be able to be there in the early years of Katie’s life; when she first stepped onto her school bus; being able to visit her at kindergarten and see the look in her eyes as she proudly danced around I’ll never forget the joy of sharing her smile, so proud to have her daddy by her side. I remember working three jobs just trying to make ends meet as a visiting part time daddy. Thankful that her mom was not so vindictive after suing me for child support to not alienate me from her. It hurt that my name was not on her school papers or on her birth certificate. That, I was just some non-custodial father struggling to turn his life around, shunned by those around me. It tortured me knowing we would never be a real family; you know that type where both parents live together happily ever after. I remember the church chorus singing a lovely hymn and suddenly she just started singing, “Old McDonald had a farm…” The days we would spend at the zoo, by the river, chasing the amusement parks, down the shore or just visiting with her. That first Christmas tree and how she got all wound up around the tree ornaments and that look on her face when I told her she couldn’t see her toys till Christmas day. I remember how she would model for me all the pretty dresses I would get for her; all the surprises she would have for me waiting whenever I would visit; how she would have her pet gerbil do tricks for me and the day at the toy store as I asked the cashier how much was the toys I was about to buy her and how Katie popped out a sock full of change and asked, “Is this enough?”
And that’s my Father’s DAY Message!!

Faith and Values; If You Believe, One Single Tear
The Miracle of Golgotha Hill; One Single Tear
By John R. Hernandez, Jr. 6/11 © http://www.newdawnmedia.wordpress.com http://www.newdawncommunications.blogspot.com
It was difficult for a poor child to grow up in such conditions, blind in one eye, after being beaten by street peddlers; he’d walked with a limp since birth. The others shunned him, they laughed at him and made jokes; He often could be seen begging by the peddler’s stands. Unable to walk fast or far he drew his sustenance from what was thrown out at the end of the day. This day he’d hurried home to his mom who was a sickly older woman. Whose husband had died trying to keep the Roman vandals from destroying what was left of the altar of God during the fire at the Temple. That night he found his mother dead and being an only son he knew he was now truly alone in the world. He sat by her side, for hours, staring into her eyes; asking why? He’d heard of a man carpenter named Jesus who healed the sick and brought sight to the blind and raised the dead; he wondered if this Jesus could bring his mother back? Could he do what they all say? Would he heal me too? I am sick and alone now and so hungry and my father and mom are gone. And I’d brought her these things so she could eat and get strong. Why God Jehovah have you done this to me, he cried? Suddenly, the Roman soldiers horses could be heard rushing through the square above the hill called Golgotha, the crowds were restless, and screams and the sounds of whipping could be heard inside his little hut of straw, where the little beggar boy sat beside his mother’s bed. He heard someone call out to him from a distance a voice he thought he knew, calling to him saying, “If you believe that Jesus is my Son with all your heart and all your soul and all your mind then you will be saved.” Silence returned for a moment as he trembled in fear. But, there again the noise in the streets grew stronger as the procession hurried by. The cries from the streets grew louder and the crowd grew in numbers. He could hear the horse’s hoofs and the crackling of whips, and then he laid his head by his mother’s side and feel asleep. It was the middle of the afternoon and he awoke, he nudged his mother and placed her things beside her side, he pulled her covers tighter as he kissed her cheeks. He remembered having a dream and being called from a distance and he knew he had to find out why. Outside it was dark and the sun was not shining down unto the streets as he made his way up to Golgotha Hill. As he approached he saw a crowd of soldiers lying on the ground holding their faces and some women crying and praising God. And as he looked up he saw a wooden cross before him and a man hung there, his head bowed down, nails piercing his hands and feet and blood oozing down. He saw the scars the soldiers inflicted upon him and he remembered the dream and the face of that man he thought he’d known who hung there suspended between earth and heaven. It was Jesus and he slowly began to open his eyes, and he looked at the little crippled boy standing there with tears in his eyes and just as he took his last breath he looked at the little boy and smiled at him and a tear pierced his eye lids. And the little boy stretched out his hands and Christ’s tears touched his hands and the little boy fell to his feet and the women weeping came to him and picked him up and he stood up straight and he wanted to cry from the joy of disbelief and the miracle of saving faith. He wanted to climb that cross and bring Jesus down. Because, somehow he knew that, that man up on that cross had answered his prayers. He’d answered his hopes and dreams all at once, with one single tear. And just as he started to climb that cross, he heard a voice from the distance saying, “My child, you get down from there”, as he slipped and fell backwards, he turned and looked back down the hill. And there through the darkness and the strange fog he saw the image of his mother running up Golgotha Hill, calling out to him.

If I could believe in that look in your eyes, once again, like I’ve done so many times before. Like when you walked in and out that door; like when you said, “I am Sorry I Hurt You baby”. Like when you swore you’d never do it again just as I gave back in. Like when you touched me and held me close or when you’d call in the middle of the night crying your heart out. Pretending you meant every word you’d swear to me. If only I could believe?

Come Let’s Make Jobs For All Americans

In My Opinion Unions Should Invest In All Unemployed Americans; After All Isn’t That What The Word “LABOR” Stands For?
By John R Hernandez, Jr.
Http://www.newdawnmedia.wordpress.com
Http://www.newdawncommunications.blogspot.com
Why don’t the Unions take that _Ten Billion_ they are planning to invest in retrofitting some commercial buildings and use it to help get people back to work? Not just the Union workers but those who have lost their jobs in semi and unskilled non-union positions!!!!!!! How much of that Ten Billion Union Dues money is going to help break the strangle hold of poverty on this nation? How much of that Ten Billion is going to go for job training of high school drop outs? How much of that Ten Billion is going to go to help get the non-union American Worker back on his feet and help to put food on his families’ table or help pay for his health care or pay the rent? I support the Unions but I don’t support the arrogant use of Union Due’s Money to help the few while there are millions of unemployed Americans out there that need help. Why don’t they take some of that money and use it to make sure that all US Companies are utilizing the best practices to help hire all unemployed Americans and not utilizing Federal Job Creation Credits to hire only members of groups that are labeled “Poverty Affected Individuals”. In my opinion the Long Term Unemployed are Poverty Affected Individuals -therefore- Unions and the Federal Government should be making sure that the Workforce Initiatives Programs includes all American workers -within their guidelines- and rules and not just a few. Read more about this by going to the petition page below -and signing this petition- to help get all long term unemployed Americans back to work now! Why should Daddy and or Mommy have to go home again and again and tell their child, “No honey the plant down the road said they are not doing any hiring today”?
BELOW ARE COMMENTS I HAVE MADE ON FACEBOOK AND OTHER PLACES ABOUT ISSUES…
ON THE ANTHONY CASE DECISION
Brittany you are right 110% for feeling angry over what appears to be an egregious distortion of justice -for this child- of God whose life was taken at such an early age and who won’t get to run around and smile -ever again- like other children -will- the rest of their earthly lives. God is a loving and forgiving God, but God also says that even if you look with hate at your brethren -that- you have committed murder. God’s aim is that we learn to get along, to tow the line and not kill ourselves over petty issues; when there is so much to do right here in his kingdom. Just so you know; this child’s life was not a petty issue and neither were the 30 million aborted children’s lives. But, we as humans are admonished to look into our own souls to seek out our own iniquities and mistakes and wrongs against one another and then even against our own flesh and ask ourselves, “Are we able to forgive as he forgave?” Who do we blame when we look at the tragic epidemic of teenage suicide across this nation and the world? When I look at it from the legal point of view I look at facts presented, but when I look at it with God’s eyes it may often lead to opposite directions -just because- His- authority is absolute. Learn to temper your pain with the facts that nothing escapes the hand of Almighty God -not even- in this case; his will be done even when we may not agree with God’s outcome. But know this that hate and injustice all pay the price in time in God’s eyes.
ON THE JOURNALIST WHO OUTTED HIMSELF THAT HE IS AN ILLEGAL ALIEN
He has been impersonating a citizen. Other people that come here to be citizens go through a lot of hard work to get to be citizens. To allow him to stay is to say that we in the Journalism Field – don’t have any- professional standards!!! This man violated all ethical standards when circumvented all legal avenues for the glorification of doing what he likes. He and all others like him need to be made to know that the law is the law. What if he stood up and said that he was a spy or a terrorists?? When someone crawls under the ground to get into the USA- it’s one thing- and when someone lies his way into a job by faking his -citizenship- in my opinion it should be a worst CRIME!! Because, it’s called fraud! Journalism like any other profession should be held to the same standards. Lying about certain things to get a job is one thing. People lie all the time to get a job, to get a date, to get a loan, etc. But lying about your citizenship and how you got into this country takes lying to a much higher level! There’s a lot more to be said about this issue.
MY THOUGHTS ON INDIGENOUS AMERICANS
I have deep love for American indigenous people and in fact for all worldwide indigenous peoples. I believe what America did to the indigenous populations is wrong, but I know that some reparations have been made and the billions pumped into these communities prove this. I don’t agree with how some Indian Reservations Casinos are run and the way many indigenous peoples are forced to live. Somehow my mind tells me there is some imbalance there that needs to be scrutinized further. I believe further that as nations and peoples begin to outgrow and become assimilated into a society -it becomes- the responsibility of that specific society of elders and leaders to do what is in the best interest of that individual segment of the population -of- that nation or country. You can’t turn around 200 hundred years later and plead ignorance when your asked what have you done to help your community evolve from that era to this era?
ON IMMIGRATION ISSUES
What gets me is how some people after being here for 20 or more years and getting to be extremely successful can have the audacity to stand up and say. “yeh well they brought me here when I was a child so what; I still have not applied for citizenship- because- I have questions about this country -I don’t like- or agree with- so- I prefer to not file?” Millions of illegal aliens live with no intentions whatsoever of ever becoming legal residents. Many are very wealthy and much of what they make goes back over there to fuel that economy instead of this one. Despicable!
Brutal Rape and Murder!! This should be a No Brainer for the jury!! But, I have seen people walk for worse than this. Look at the outcome of the Anthony Trial! Our criminal justice system is irreparably flawed. Money and public opinion have a scary way of skewing the outcome of jury trials.
IMMIGRATION ISSUES CONTINUED;
In case you hadn’t noticed Bryan I am Latino, I know firsthand what hatred and injustice is all about as well I am sure as anyone who comes to this nation to make a better life. But I don’t agree that people should crash their way into this nation and get the benefits that other real citizens who have worked hard all their lives should get. But, there is a difference between us and them; and that difference is that we are certified legal citizens and they are not. I am not against people applying for citizenship -the legal way- and I do believe that more needs to be done to reform the immigration laws to expand and include those who wish to come here and become citizens and productive members of this society. As for how long I have been watching -I can only tell you- that I have been watching and learning all my life. And before you start telling me about your citizenship let me inform you that many of the folks we are talking about here; are the children and grandchildren of the folks that we Americans stole not only their lands from but their dignity from. You remember American History I and II?
ON ABORTION AND CHILDHOOD DECEASES
Like an unborn child being torn apart by the hands of hatred so the lives of our most fragile senior’s hearts are torn apart from the torment of abandonment. How could there be such little love in a world spawned from love?
Lord don’t ever let me turn my face from all the pain and suffering in the world; I want to never forget the look in your eyes when you saw your baby boy hanging on that cross….JRH.
Tonight while we are enjoying the pleasures of our lusts; someone out there will be praying and crying for the ones eating out of dumpsters across this nation and the world!
Thanking you could never diminish the prolonged pain of compassion; nevertheless if I did not thank you; only the echoes of my cries would be heard from inside…JRH711ndmh!
On learning to loose unnecessary weight:
I usually charge thousands for my advice but for you right here a trinket worth much more…..slow yourself down…breathe and push away the stress….take a look inside and with every day that passes by develop your own way of controlling compulsive behaviors; the by-products of interactions and reactions to the world around you….!
Thanking you could never diminish the prolonged pain of compassion; nevertheless if I did not thank you; only the echoes of my cries would be heard from inside…JRH711ndmh!

WELCOME TO THE NEW SOUTH THE NEW SEAT OF CONSERVATIVE POLITICS; how a few billion and ethnic affection can win elections
SO MUCH FOR CONSERVATIVE RELIGIOUS CONVICTIONS AND MORAL SOCIETAL COMPASSION-the path of welfare reform and the demoralization of charitable giving alive and well in the New South
Written and edited by John R. Hernandez, Jr. © 2011 http://www.newdawnmedia.wordpress.com/ http://www.newdawncommunications.blogspot.com
“WELCOME TO THE NEW WORLD ORDER”
“Business as usual in the New South; they want to solidify and empower the control of indentured servitude into the foreseeable future. The multimillion dollar corporations that fled this nation over the past 40 years are dying to get back in to the game; but, not before their cohorts in government dismantle what few social programs are available, union infrastructure and what little voice is left of social reformists” JRH-2011
Since Nathan Deal came into office in Georgia Newt Gingrich has made it his power base from where to launch his campaign for president; at the seat of Satan himself. While nearly all social programs in Georgia have been sliced to the core or critically underfunded! SO MUCH FOR CONSERVATIVE RELIGIOUS CONVICTIONS AND MORAL SOCIETAL COMPASSION. Here in the heart of the Old South the birth of Democracy turned into the image of the abomination of desolation before our very eyes. What is missing in all these sit-ins that are taking place throughout this nation is …I am not going to say until I am asked. Suffice it to say there are winds a-stirring that do not bode well for this nation down in the OLD SOUTH. Remember that it was Newt Gingrich who was one of the founding fathers of the contract with America which helped to dismantle the Welfare program which helped to maintain millions above the poverty level in this nation.
Perry another conservative says he wants to raise the social security retirement age just as 30 million baby-boomers are about to retire. How pathetic and ridiculous can he get? And to boot, Republicans throw in a wild horse for the presidency sweepstakes; a person whose belief in Jesus Christ is questionable because, “Mormons do not believe, for example, that salvation comes through faith in Jesus Christ. Mormons must work their way to heaven. (B. R. McConkie, Mormon Doctrine (Salt Lake City:1958), p. 191.)” and “Mormonism teaches that God is not the only deity and that we all have the potential of becoming gods. (Ibid., p. 576.) (Remember that Satan’s fall came about because he wanted to be like God.) God, according to Mormons, is not just Spirit but has “a body of flesh and bones as tangible as a man’s.” (Doctrine and Covenants, 130:22.) They teach, “As we are, he was. As he is, we shall become.” (Joseph Smith, “The King Follett Discourse,” p. 9.) There has been constant revision of Mormon doctrine over the years, as church leaders have changed their minds on a number of subjects including polygamy, which was once sanctioned by the church. In summary, the Mormon church is a prosperous, growing organization that has produced many people of exemplary character. But when it comes to spiritual matters, the Mormons are far from the truth.” These quotes taken from http://www.cbn.com/spirituallife/200Questions/article_10.aspx any use of these quotes must be followed with exact sitting back to the original authors at CBN.com.
How pathetic can it get? When it isn’t the voice or the will of the people that elects these clowns -but- the all-mighty dollar! So much for the old saying money can buy anything. But, it won’t get you into Heaven. Dr. Larry Bates today 10/17/2011 said on Christian radio that the reason people were burning down banks in Greece is, because, the money ran out and the people started whining. That the handouts had run out and he said that he could say this with authority. Well Mr. Bates I have a good friend of mine who is a Greek citizen, comes from a well respected family and who has been a diligent worker in Greece for well over 12 years. I can remember her telling me about the harsh economic and financial situations of the country for all these years now. But, she never quit her job and she never ran out onto the streets to burn down banks; even though I can remember her telling me that at times she went for months and months without getting paid.
She is an example of millions of Greece’s men and woman who work for a living and who support the government as best they can and who would not just up and walk out –because- their paychecks have stopped coming! And if you or your conservative cohorts need me to verify my facts we can have a one on one open dialogue over it. All the nations you mentioned such as Greece, Ireland and others are going through long-term economic distress. Yet- I don’t see you saying anything about both of the Bush’s Republican administration’s warmongering-spending of well over 10 trillion dollars in unpopular foreign wars? You say ,”when you understand money and …the coming financial wipeout…we can actually predict what’s coming.” Why didn’t you and your forecast analysts figure this out when Bush Jr. and his father were throwing billions and trillions into global crusading?
Perhaps if you and your cohorts had done this we might be in less of a stressful situation financially, today. On another issue; exactly what did the Bush’s do to contain the hurricane of companies running offshore to amass more wealth? After all, it was Reagan who led the charge to deregulate, and even he did not do much to protect American jobs from going overseas. Furthermore, during his tenure America suffered from a historically unprecedented increase in the number of homeless families, men, women and children. While the rich elitists pushed for massive construction of gated-communities throughout this nation!!!
In his book “City of Quartz” Mike Davis; a well respected author, professor and social historian outlines the political and economic situation that led this nation further into the precipice of an ever widening class divide. Due to failed public policy, greed and fraud at the hands of politicians; and their cohort’s intentions to turn Los Angeles into a gated Metropolis of the future. Where, the rich are encased in high-rise office malls and complexes; while, the poor are herded away to off-limit zones throughout the city.
Those who think that they are above others -because- of the amount of wealth they control have always blamed the poor and their adversaries in government. Whenever their failed policies expose their deceptive and ruthless intentions to amass more wealth over the backs of the poor and defenseless in society. The manufacturing of indentured servitude also known as Slavery was done away with in America as a result of governmental action and great bloodshed; despite the laws its demise came mostly in name. It is alive and well and practiced in an everyday basis today. There are millions of Americans sitting on the ground refusing to budge to try and help get the government and especially Republicans to bend a little over the increase of the minimum wage. The police will be ready, the gas and handcuffs will flow follow, but, the Republicans will never budge or give in to raising the one thing that will do the most to help get this nation’s economy back moving again.
The present minimum wage is too little to help meet the personal and economic needs of Americans who are hurting. Republicans and big business will fight tooth and nail before they cave in to any increases in the minimum wage. Sadly, another election day will come and millions of Americans will rush to the polls to put those responsible for our economic mess back into power. Mr. Bates says there are enough votes in the House to impeach the President. Instead of that why don’t we let the people decide on Election Day 2012 Mr. Bates????
AND NOW THE REST OF THE STORY….
THE EXPLOSIVE ISSUE OF CYBERSEX AND ITS EFFECT ON INTER-PERSONAL AND FAMILIAL RELATIONSHIPS; WELCOME TO THE DO-YOUR-OWN-THING GENERATION OF THE NEW MILLENIUM
Written and Created by John R. Hernandez, Jr. 10/02/2011 (c) http://www.newdawnmedia.wordpress.com http://www.newdawncommunications.blogspot.com
Someone recently asked a question on social network about cyber-sexing over the internet. Here is my take on this subject. There seems to be some form of conventional wisdom that sort of redefines or crosses the lines from where flirting and boundary perception exists. In my opinion cyber-sexing is another form of role playing or flirting that presides within a realm where the normal and or customary rules and regulations that exist in traditional face to face encounters are absent. No, I think it’s healthy! In fact if you think about it; there is no chance of catching AIDS over a monitor and really who are they cheating with? A piece of hardware and just think he or she is only exercising their muscles. It’s a win-win situation! And think of this, if someone thinks they have a need to go noodling on the internet it’s a sure-fire sign that the relationship may be (something missing or out of place) in need of repair. Either way, catching it when it’s at that stage is a far better cry than having to hire a detective to check up on your spouse? Okay, here is where I tell you that, no it is not healthy to seek out self-gratification over the internet and what you may need is to find space and re-think your relationship and what brought you together in the first place. Relationships in mid-career tend to bottom out at times. Because, when we look outside the bubble (box) we begin to pile up all the reasons about the outside world we may or have been missing. Human relationships take time to cultivate and vary by personalities and environments. If we can but a for moment make some connection to God in this subject we may be enlightened in knowing that this human desire to self gratificate oneself; which some choose to call human nature or getting your freak-off is actually something that is both a mental reaction to outward stimulus and a habitual reaction (learned process). That can, is and will eventually become both a mental and a physical aberration. We don’t always look at perversion or self-gratification as a physical need but, as a mental desire that many of us find difficult to overcome. God gave us all the tools and or steps that we need to encounter through the process of procreation. And I might say for the most part this process when it produces itself in a healthy way within a healthy relationship and follows in a Godly fashion can be one of the most rewarding and precious of male-female human relations. When we take God out of the equation as in for example -the Garden of Eden– what we get in return is a man-made new moon or self-appointed feasts of self-worship and idol self-gratification. The word of God or God himself tells us that we are to have no gods before him. Sex outside of the marriage, cybersex, cheating, getting your freak off or whatever you decide to call it is an action that is not in the nature of God’s expectations for and of mankind. Paul the Apostle said the love of money is the root of all evil and one can say that the love of the self, outside of the natural affection between man and woman or familial relationships is an abomination unto the eyes of the Lord-God and Christ His Son. Think of it this way. When man began to lose the importance between Christ’s blood sacrifice and the blood sacrifice of animals this is when God became irrelevant –because- Christ is no longer the center premise of the God story. And many women and children can consider God and Christ to be unimportant or unnecessary. We don’t need another temple, because the word of God and the New Covenant in and of Christ tells us that we are the Temple of God and that Christ has shed his precious and Holy blood over us for the redemption of our souls and the forgiveness of our sins. We do not need another blood sacrifice and we certainly do not ever need another blood sacrifice such as; in the blood of bulls, or rams or he goats. When we forget, set aside, eliminate, remove from our lives and minds what Christ’s sacrifice means to mankind; when this happens the rules or God’s laws are thrown out the window and mankind such as in the Garden of Eden story begins to make his own choices and set his own rules on how he/she will run his or her life. This is why we have a lack of control in relationships, the expelling of men from their natural place within the family, a lack of communication in a Godly way in relationships and why we have the problems, troubles, misunderstandings and disasters in nature and humankind we have today. Remember, now that many of the ordinances of God have already begun to be DISMANTLED; The removal of the pledge of allegiance, the removal of the word of God in many academic institutions, the removal of the Godly wisdom of the fathers for their children and families(almost half of all families are single-parent families), the removal of the protection and sanctification of life so that now we have over 50 million little babies murdered at the hands of money mongering organizations and individuals, man’s effectual nature to woman is now traded for the unnatural and unhealthy effectual attraction to other men as is of woman for woman. Let me end it this way. When you self -ingratiate be careful that you are not fulfilling the will of some evil-ancient habitual sin of self-worship. For we struggle not against flesh and blood but against principalities and powers, and rulers of the darkness of this world. And, there is more that I can say about this subject but I know that there are sensitive ears out there and this is a family oriented realm –where- I like to just throw out bits and pieces of the issues and like to leave it up to the grown-ups out there to find their way through the mulberry patch as it pertains to those around the table.

Clash of Titans; The Rising Influence of the New Chieftains of the Digital Age
Written and Edited by John R. Hernandez, Jr. © 2011 http://www.newdawnmedia.wordpress.com http://www.newdawncommunications.blogspot.com
Looking at social media from the point of view of a published author who is competing with other authors to sell books.
Chapter 1:
The view from the wall
Like a fly on the wall I take a closer look at the realm of social media with an ear towards flavoring the muses of our present day social trends. Meaning that like many, I am a relative new comer -considering- so many of those I have researched in Facebook -for example- who are to my knowledge polished-and-well known–authors. What I have experienced is that many authors who represent a certain genre; for example, the romance authors. Those whirlwind romance novel types or the turn of the century old-money style English Victorian novel writers or the DIY authors, etc.,… Most of which, who tend to gravitate to cliques sometimes of 10, 20 and more 100 who make their nest in such places as Facebook, LinkedIn and many other social networking sites; where you will find them en-masse gravitating or better yet hovering to their own respective guru tribal chiefs. It is through this chieftain mentality that they validate their group’s existence and develop rules or pecking orders which reinforce -yet stricter boundaries and territorial laws- against outsiders and often insiders. These laws like the laws of say a pack of wolfs are in place just like in any social/corporate business group which sees the main factor of its existence as the survival of the tribe or clan. Here within the social enclave of the group lies the periphery, the stage where all the member/actors play out their ritual/dances before the social media spectators and passersby. Replete with the usual/customary tribal rituals meant to either communicate to the clan or tribe or group, messages that are meant to inform or warn its members about trends, probable new candidate tribal members and or current events within and without their sphere of influence. My argument concerning social media such as Facebook and all the others mentioned or unmentioned is for the purposes of exploring the conversation. and not attacking the eventual values of social media in and of itself. It is what I see whe I peer from the wall; that although places like Facebook and others offer vast realms of information on specific groups and their practices within the inner circles of those groups to new- comers on the net, they have yet to sort out the old adages and or old clichés and pecking orders. Tribal attitudes that have stained the reputation of the old guard within the printed book realm and it is within this printed book realm that there are myriads of cliques from every brand of writing style. Just like parachute salesmen and or chicken soup vendors and anyone just walking into the industry will find -pitched- and ready to invite, to warn off and or to destroy the most valiant of souls lurking into the old-guard canvas/paved world of printed matter. And what I am saying is that already no doubt as far back as the first few months of the take-off of eBook publishing; the barriers and lines were beginning to take form in cyberspace. Where, as in the early days of the concrete mortar-paved world of publishing; the clans and factions and warring groups within this new industry have begun to shape the future realms within the re-creation and transformation of traditional book publishing -as we have known it. Just like journalists gravitate to their own specific cliques and parachute salesmen gravitate to their own tribal specific enclaves- so has social media begun to adopt- the attitudes and practices and status quo behavior of the old guard brick and mortar mentality.
Chapter 2:
How open is social media going to be to the untold millions of new and coming indie- authors created by these new phenomena of digital publishing? Imagine that we are going from a few million brick and mortar authors to a catastrophic untold number. Hungry to claim their fair share of sales, audience attention and loyalty amassing and swarming in droves through the whole of the digital social spheres? My answer would be that as with any transformation from the old guard to the new; the old rules and adages have to give some ground to the crashing waves of new ideals and promoters of these new ideas; often where rules have little to no value. Your ideas, however well-meaning –where- the survival or your tribe or clan are now being convoluted and threatened by those of the masses of new authors; who have yet to find their unique spheres of gravitational orbits for which to worship at the lap of the new and rising Digital Age Chieftains!
..meanwhile, back to the unemployed and putting food on the table….
THERE ARE 15 MILION UNEMPLOYED PERSONS OUTHERE WONDERING WHY IS AMERICA IGNORING THEM
Written and Edited by John R. Hernandez, Jr. (c) 2011 http://www.newdawnmedia.wordpress.com http://www.newdawncommunications.blogspot.com
Not too long ago I created a petition that in my opinion would open the door and I hope the eyes of today’s politicians. A petition that would help get 15 million people back to work. But it fell on deaf ears. You ever wonder how or why it is that what is really strange is how -we can see eye to eye- on this issue but, those around us refuse to step out of their self created, self insulated and self contained world of darkness and apparent ignorance. I will for the sake of 15 million unemployed and more men and women out there who are suffering day and night; the sake of the children and the elderly and those less fortunate amongst us. Try to be upbeat and more optimistic and pray that this petition will not completely fall on deaf ears like the others -I have- proposed. The Lord is my strength and my salvation. I have taken up my cross. Because, out of my weakness I have found my strength. See what comes out of them; see how they speak and what they say closely and you will find the answers. Entitlements as they like to call them to make these acts of kindness and charity seem petty and useless! The shame of it is that when you do have an excellent idea it’s hard to sell it -because- there are some in power that want this disastrous economic condition to continue. It’s like when the young men and women were sent out to the battle fields riddled with mines. There has been some progress in that area but should it have taken so long, so many lives and so many amputations? Many are actually tuning a profit while others are loosing their lives savings just trying to keep a roof over their heads and food on the table. The oil companies are reaping great profits. Instead of the President or someone on Capital Hill forcing them to lower their prices during these dire economic times they are allowed keep raising prices. As you know, a great deal of that segment of the population that has a steady good paying job and sees and hears what is going on refuses to do anything to help their fellow brothers and sisters in need. The Spirit of the Anti-Christ; that Spirit represented by all the greed and selfishness in mankind is still alive and well and possessing many. But, over this Spirit is the Spirit of the False Christ; the one that lives and breathes in the hearts of man. This same Spirit that is the one -which embodies many in high positions of leadership- is the one charged with the responsibility of gathering the masses of those that have fallen away. This is a powerful Spirit whose ultimate aim is to change; to turn things around; to confuse and to confound; to subjugate and to possess. Pretending otherwise, that they must be in control and given the power to run nations –because- they have brainwashed many into believing that those below them are incapable of ruling themselves!!! The attributes of greed and selfishness feed the fires of hatred and disdain especially against the true children of God. Ultimately, the forces of the evil ones will attempt to take control and once again subjugate mankind until they bring this nation down like they have tried to in the past. Only by dismantling the system that we have grown to know and to love can they hope to control the masses. The Bible tells us in Ephesians’ that we struggle not against flesh and blood but against Powers and Principalities and Rulers of the Darkness of this World. The Bible also warns us that those who have eyes to see should use them and those who have ears to listen should use them but, many have fallen asleep; have fallen away, have lost their true love their true faith and have supplanted it with what on the outside appears true and real but on the inside it is an abomination of all un-cleanliness. The unprecedented political landslides of the last year is a warning to those who have fallen asleep that they need to wake up and fight to support those that have and are trying to bring about a better change for this nation and not an empty useless bunch of gestures and false promises that ultimately will bring back to where we were on the eve of what could have been the greatest disaster this nation would have faced since the Great Depression. What is so sad is how many have been helped by what this administration has done but so few will readily stand up and admit to it. We need to have a government that is strict about leading with a firm conviction that selfishness and greed are the true foundations of all corruption. Finally, take a serious look at what Ephesians is telling us; Rulers with Powers over Principalities in High Places! This is the embodiment of corrupt political systems that rule over mankind!
Apathy is America’s greatest enemy
Written and edited by John R. Hernandez, Jr. © 2011 http://www.newdawnmedia.cwordpress.com http://www.newdawncommunications.blogspot.com
75 years of relative peace and prosperity have helped to create a nation that is manically self absorbed on its self and less interested in the threats that are lurking from outside sources and especially from inside its own territories and halls of power. 911 should have been a wakeup call instead it became a global witch-hunt for the search for one man. 15 years since Bin Laden began his global Jihad against America and Israel he was nowhere to be found. In less than three years under the administration of President Obama, Bin Laden is now reportedly dead and many more of his supporters and staunchest partners in crime have fallen. These news would be good if Americans would ever wake up and read between the lines. Somehow I cannot help but think that this will be its undoing. Apathy is America’s greatest enemy. We didn’t crawl in we were forced in by worthless despicable scoundrels. Back in Hitler’s time many in the middle classes and upper classes thought that if they supported the Nazi’s schemes that they would escape the gas chambers and atrocities that followed. Today in America we have a group of people that hate the poor and less fortunate. They find them to be a scourge, a drain on the resources of those who have self appointed themselves as the caretakers of this new century. Like the Nazi’s of the 1930’s who walked into power at a time when Germany suffered from great economic distress and the demoralization of a lost war. They told the people what they wanted to hear and once having attained power they began to develop a systematic model for control of Western Europe and eventually the world. Unlike Communism who saw religion merely as a callous on the foot Nazism sees religion as its fiercest enemy to be eradicated forever. If you look back you will find how Hitler used and lied to the Catholic Bishops and those in positions of power within the Christian Hierarchies in order that he could attain control of the German people and most of Western Europe. At first the systematic elimination of the poor, the aging, persons of color and others deemed undesirable was thought to have been kept quiet. But soon the news got out and eventually his popularity began to fail as his war machine began to crumble under the heavy pressures of the allied forces. Americans for almost 75 years now have enjoyed the luxuries of an unparalleled freedom. They have fallen asleep by virtue of 75 years of peace and prosperity. But there are elements in this nation and this world working hard and fast to bring this nation to its knees and to recreate the fallen remnants of the Third Reich. Americans have forgotten what the words anarchists and traitors truly mean. Today a segment of those who wield great power over this nation have begun a systematic dismantling of all the great social programs that were built to sustain and support this nation’s elderly, the poor, the infirmed and less fortunate. Thereby diminishing their strength and power to fight back when and at what time the next step in the master plan takes place. By weakening the financial markets, by throwing the economy into a tailspin and pitting this nation against its long-term allies they hope to bring it to its knees and walk into power.

DIG IN AND DO THE SEARCH
Written and Edited by John R. Hernandez, Jr. © 8/2011 http://www.newdawnmedia.wordpress.com http://www.newdawncommunications.blogspot.com
This is the Republican comment to Standard and Poor’s downgrading of the US credit rating, “Unfortunately, decades of reckless spending cannot be reversed immediately, especially when the Democrats who run Washington remain unwilling to make the tough choices required to put America on solid ground,” >> [This statement by Boehner gives the reader the impression that for decades the Democrats have been the spenders] << Speaker John A. Boehner, an Ohio Republican, said in a statement.”
If I remember correctly it was and has been the Republican’s voracious appetite for control of energy resources at whatever means along with it’s global warmongering and it’s questionable relationship with defense contracting and spending; not necessarily because of any overall US policy or interest in pursuing major profits in these areas but as a result of a global energy consortium of conglomerates that wish to take hold and have taken hold of much of this previous decades global oil and gas research and exploration projects-at whatever length. Take for example some of the quotes from HALLIBURTON WATCH.ORG and other internet sites readily available to you once you do the search like I have;
This is just the tip of the iceberg that makes Boehner’s smug eyes roll-over and pretend to know nothing about; just the beginning of a pile of intel you can find if you just do the searches. I don’t get paid to do the searches and bring these comments only that, there should be a fair and balanced dissemination of intel so that people will stop being brainwashed erroneously by the right wing rhetoric against the Democrats. There are lots of things I don’t agree with on the Democratic side and when I am ready I will do my search as you should and expose it for what it is. Furthermore, I am in publishing and media consulting and publicizing my published works such as my new book, “In the Birth of a New Dawn”.
But I have a burning desire to expose human injustice and atrocities against mankind. Something that I had hoped to pursue as I studied at Rutgers trying to get my Journalism Degree and eventually a masters. Having to leave it all behind to do what I thought a farther should do when faced with the mother of his child running off 1,000 miles in the opposite direction. I made the conscious choice to chase after her and derail my aspirations. But it never deterred me, my hunger and thirst for social justice has never ands will never be squelched until they put a bullet into my head. Because some of us love our children despite our own best interests and some of us love to fight against social injustices wherever we see them despite the consequences. We may not always be right in someone eyes or succeed but that we bring that fair and balanced approach unlike another is sufficient enough to let the world know that there are two sides to every story and not just one.
Take a look at this;
1). “January 30, 2004: New York Times columnist, Bob Herbert, details how Halliburton evades U.S. taxes and export bans by establishing foreign subsidiaries. Halliburton’s Wendy Hall admits the company paid only $15 million in taxes in 2002 even though the company earned $339 million in profits from continuing operations and $12.5 billion in total revenue.”
But in,
2). “January 2004: Halliburton discloses that a subsidiary paid a $2.4 million bribe to a Nigerian government official’s business in exchange for favorable tax treatment.” From Halliburton Watch.com
Then in,
3). “January 25, 2004: CBS Television’s 60 Minutes program shows how Halliburton does business with Iran even though U.S. law bans companies from doing business with the country.” From HalliburtonWatch.org
And in,
4). “January 26, 2004:New York City’s controller accuses Halliburton of taking blood money from state sponsors of terrorism, such as Iran and Libya. Controller William Thompson – who oversees an $80 billion pension fund for city workers – says cops and firefighters are outraged that their retirement portfolios include stock in U.S. firms getting fat off contracts with rogue nations like Iran, which funds the terror groups Hezbollah and Hamas and is suspected of giving sanctuary to Al Qaeda leaders.” From Halliburton Watch.org
There is so much more but if you don’t go and do the search you will blindly be lead by what some on capitol hill or some scoundrels on conservative radio or Christian broadcasting will lead you to believe!
TO BE CONTINUED AT A LATER TIME; SORRY BUT, I GOT TO GO AND MARKET MY BOOKS OTHERWISE I DON’T EAT, CAN’T PAY THE BILLS AND CERTAINTLY WON’T BE ABLE TO BRING YOU ANYMORE INSIGHTFUL INTEL IN A MORE FAIR AND BALANCED WAY!!!!
PREVIEW OF WHAT’S TO COME SOMETIME IN THE FUTURE;
- How the Christian Broadcasting radio waves have been taken over by the right wing hiding behind the cloak of religion and moral values to help espouse their rhetoric and to take control of the masses by bombarding them with reckless disinformation.
- Why the US Defense Department and the leaders of our armed forces should have been more focused on the fact that an attack was eminent against those involved with the capture of Bin Laden the murderer?
- Why did it take so long to capture Bin Laden and why did it take place in July 2011; just at the crux of the declaration of their accumulated war chests by US political parties was about to be revealed?
- Why did the gas prices seem to plummet during (June to July) this time and then slowly inch back up to the disastrous levels they have been in for the past years?
- Who or what is really behind the fluctuating gas prices and why?
- How much money has been spent on global warmongering by the Republican administrations of the George Bush’s? And what effect has it had on our economy and why is so little being talked about this phenomenon?
- Who or what is really behind wanting our economy to fail and eventually crash?

Fighting for Social Justice
Besides spending tireless hours on the pc working on my webpage’s, creating petitions, working on promoting my books; when everyone else is sleeping and for editing and writing stories and doing the research and creating poetry and being a social watchdog. I was like you once in the past scared, brainwashed and confused by all the rhetoric. I fought my way out of that and decided to find my own answers to the things that burned inside for which I doubted if I was being told the truth. My book is one way you can support someone just like you. But, in return you get the truth and a nice beautiful book of poetry. You are not making a donation or contributing to anything. You can buy the book and walk away and or stay and support social justice by purchasing my next book and continue to enjoy and fight for the truth! Never forget the truth is out there.
Friends,
I just created a petition entitled President, House of Representatives,
Senate, and Corporate America: America Working Nationwide Program, because I
care deeply about this very important issue.
I’m trying to collect 100 signatures, and I could really use your help.

When religious institutions allow thier pastors and others to lambast an individual party or politician -while not- giving their congregants the possibility of a fair and balanced opinion from the other side. What this does is to create congregations that are exclusively a-political and biased towards one party. This in my opinion closes the doors to those congregants from these communities who may wish to become a part of it.This behaviour may appear to be the creation of a club relationship instead of a church relationship; that welcomes everyone. Especially if this institution is on the government dole. I believethat politicking from the pulpit is an affront to those of us who wish to be keep politics and the worship of God somewhat separate. A little politicking is ok but a three-hour-long sermon lambasting the other side can be abnoxious. I realize that churches have had a love-hate relationship with politics and especially their choices of candidates throughout this nation’s history. There is a fine line and it does get under peoples skin. Personally, I do believe that the conservative right appears to rule over much of the Christian airwaves, at times with an iron rod. What should happen? I see very little if any of a fair and balanced approach to religious organizations expression of their views. I know of at least one Texas organization that has taken over some specific timeslots accross certain Southern US Christian airwaves for several hours per day-5 days per week. And all they do is bash the left and appear to be politically brainwashing folks more than being fair and balanced. I have argued about this in some of my posts on my webpage’s. But, we have come to a time when one political party cannot be everything for everybody. And to their fault, much of the traditional media along with the two main political parties appear to favor maintaining the status quo. I think what is needed is for religious organizations to be a little more open minded and tolerant of others. In concluding I don’t think we should take away people’s rights to speak out -but- that there should be a more fair and balanced approach to what we see, hear and read over the media. I don’t want to see pastors getting gagged over what they can and cannot say but, I would like to see a deeper scrutiny of who can get airtime and -a limit on the amount- of politicking -time- that goes on over a 24 hour period of time on Christian Airwaves!!

“We measure the true value of a man’s abilities by the distance he will travel to find the places where he can wash his soul clean; of all the pestilences of inner ignorance and antipathy of others he deems less worthy of a minute of his time…” JRH-2011
“The reason why there has been such little response to all of my petitions is because the majority suffers from the antipathy of the lower classes. It is this hatred of those they deem unworthy that fuels their ignorance. It is also their reluctance to see beyond the dirt beneath them that clouds the existence of the reality of what is truly before them. And so the very essence of life escapes them along with the importance of the meaning of it. Man builds castles to his own self ingratiation, walls to keep those deemed less than perfect from and a place where he can sit beside the thrones of mental giants; to feed his lusting and insatiable appetite to dream, to build, to torment, and destroy…”JRH-2011
Proverbs 8:22-36 “22 The LORD created me at the beginning of his work, the first of his acts of old. 23 Ages ago I was set up, at the first, before the beginning of the earth. 24 When there were no depths I was brought forth, when there were no springs abounding with water. 25 Before the mountains had been shaped, before the hills, I was brought forth; 26 before he had made the earth with its fields, or the first of the dust of the world. 27 When he established the heavens, I was there, when he drew a circle on the face of the deep, 28 when he made firm the skies above, when he established the fountains of the deep, 29 when he assigned to the sea its limit, so that the waters might not transgress his command, when he marked out the foundations of the earth, 30 then I was beside him, like a master workman; and I was daily his delight, rejoicing before him always, 31 rejoicing in his inhabited world and delighting in the sons of men. 32 And now, my sons, listen to me: happy are those who keep my ways. 33 Hear instruction and be wise, and do not neglect it. 34 Happy is the man who listens to me, watching daily at my gates, waiting beside my doors. 35 For he who finds me finds life and obtains favor from the LORD; 36 but he who misses me injures himself; all who hate me love death.” The above excerpt from the Word of God in relation to Proverbs 8:22-36 is borrowed from biblestudyguides.com; please respect the site and give reference to their works wherever you may use it.

Welcome to America the land of the free; society careening into the precipice of its very own self-absorbed choice over illicit or self-prescribed sedation
Toys, toys and more toys. Gadgets of all kinds! To peer into the minutest corners of the cornea, the brain, the heart of all that is and all that man hopes will ever be. And with every gadget comes the inner burning desire to take just one more step, to go that one more mile. Can you imagine if humanity would stop all this insatiable wanton for possessions in the name of true progress for just one month, year? How many trillions could we have amassed in the process? We could feed eradicate hunger forever, decease, along with the debilitating illnesses of aging and abandonment. But man fears man; he /she is driven by their subconscious belief that best friends are made by the best fences, the best fortifications; the finest and most richest embellishments on navy’s, armies, air forces, nuclear devices, gas and antipersonnel trinkets of mass destruction. Welcome to the whimsically stealthy fortress once known as America the free. Where, elections are bought, careers are made and destroyed over dinner conversations, mountains of oppositions are obliterated in a mere nights raid and 50 million precious angels are emaciated like slaughtered carcasses in mass produced meat processing centers. The remains of which are haggled and fought over in the name of science and the eradication of mankind’s deceases. Imagine waking up tomorrow and finding that all of man’s gadgets suddenly stopped working for one twenty-four hour period? What would man do? How would you keep that child from going out of their mind? How would you keep your husband from driving absolutely insane? What would you do to make yourself over and over again day after day, appearance after appearance? Would you be afraid to go outdoors and allow the rest of humanity to see the real you? The one you behind all those layers of primal customs. No radio, no television, no video games to play, no war games, no satellites, no watches to peer at every minute, no excuses to withdraw from life over and over again. What would man do? How would find the ability or guts to look away, to stick his head back into his plastic, unnatural, fake environment where he/she keeps the uncomfortable presence of the other; the one undesirable, the one less than perfect, the one of color opposite his own., At a safe distance. How would an cope having for once in his/her life seen mankind for all it is and not only for the part he/she has recreated devoid of all its faults, inequalities, aberration, undesired nesses, and frailties?
Don’t you know it has all been preordained for you?

Man has to have the less fortunate, the poor, the infirmed, and the incapacitated from a lifetime of devotion and dedication to the cause of the corporation. Otherwise man could not have anyone to hold up his britches when he stands at the altar of acceptance and mass ingratiation for hi/her contributions to the worship of self. Awards and plaques, ribbons, medals for valor in the presence of inexplicable hostility; while, another thousand or more lose their jobs to overseas ventures for the sake of profitability, the thinning out of the herd and streaming of the process of mass production. In another hundred they will look back and kneel at the altar of progress and worship once again another century filed with the insatiable desire to explore, to create and destroy. Today’s 15 million unemployed will have wiped clean from their memories as the 50 million unborn deaths and the millions of lives destroyed in name of kingdom building and the best interest an security of the US. And those at the bottom draft another day’s recreation the few at the top sit beside the table of progress, social control and the direction to take for the sake preserving their wealth. Pondering once more how many lives will have been sacrificed, how much to invest in that corner of the globe to squelch yet another uprising, and what new human disease will be invented to keep humanity from exploding. While we think day-by- day they will have thought far and ahead of your wildest guesses….
I guess I ask too much of myself and others too. I expect others to jump to my conclusions and snap on point. But, the truth is this world, this humanity we call mankind is so corrupt; so absurd, so self-absorbed. People starving, people being denied the basic needs. What ever happened to, “life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.”? The other day I ran into a one-eyed woman (an accident had left her without the use of her other eye); a precious soul who’d made some mistakes in life and now is denied food stamps, Medicaid and help –while- she and her father must fend for their selves; and- in a world gone mad she is told that she is as capable as I am or you are and so she is not eligible for assistance. Apparently to the bureaucrats and institutional droids she can get along just fine with that one and only eye. The young man or woman returning from war with one less arm or eye or leg; amputated at the scene of an RPG or IAPD event get to swallow his/her pride, keep his/her mouth shut and let the thought sink-in that they gave their best and their all so that the all-night party in Malibu, or Acapulco, or in some light flashing all-night beehive; the dungeons where man/woman escapes to tranquilize reality and party the night away. Casualties and collateral damage the result of human progress decided at the roundtable, where, the few get to make the choices of who, when and -how many- will live another day. No the disabled one-eyed woman or the less than perfectly complete army grunt won’t get to spend Christmas like the rest of them at the top of the Hill this year. Even when beyond the preponderance of the facts are all in their favor -the doors are shut right in their face- and sadly no one gives a dam -anymore. Except a few that I can place at the tip of my pinky. Ignorance is bliss or so they say. But apathy, well, apathy my friends is the elixir of the ignorant and egotistic crowd. I am disgusted by the way men, women and children; and yes the elderly, the infirmed and those afflicted by age and disease and abandonment -mean so little- in a world that has lost all sense of passion and true love. You think you know what passion is and what true love is –because- you can buy the emotions and feelings that surround them. Birthdays, anniversaries, Bar-mitzvahs, sweet-sixteen’s’’, piñatas; all are mankind’s futile attempts at buying what their feeble minute minds cannot ever hope to attain. Because, all of their vain intentions never rise to the level of that true compassion that is defined as the willingness and innocent-selfless giving from the depths of one’s own heart; without any resemblance or impulse of want. Humanity is lost in its own self-absorbed need to satisfy its own out of control maniacal –compulsive- needs. By pretending that it is its obligation to make the lives of those they believe they love and those they believe love them -in return- the center most important event of their lives, And as a result of this process of nurturing some wild belief conceived out of the wedlock between control freaks and those self-absorbed with the voracious need to feed their lust for their out of control continuous and despicable greedy expectations. After all you can always plead “migraine’ -pretend that all you need is a simple mood adjustment in order to validate and justify that lovely new 90 day prescription of Demurrals or Valiums!!

Rick Perry says that we need to increase the social security age. That’s easy to say coming from a guy that has a great pension to rely on. Unlike the 15 million unemployed! Wink-wink, don’t tell anyone that there are over 30 million baby boomers about to retire soon. Let’s see, the Republican candidates brainstorm to fix the economy will be cutting social programs, upping the social security age and oh yeah maintaining the tax cuts for the rich, like them. You didn’t hear it here! Perry reminds me of the gas station owner who sits by the boob-tube waiting to see if the price of crude has gone up so he can run outside and flip the price of his gas by .10 or .20 cents more per gallon. Could someone tell guys like Perry that we are still in the grips of a recession; brought upon by the trillions squandered by his colleagues over their global war-mongering. If Perry sold chickens for a living I bet he’d want to raise the price of chickens –because- nowadays they appear fatter, healthier and living longer. Are wealthy, long-term bureaucrats like Perry really in touch with the mom and pop on the streets and or the 15 million unemployed his party helped to can? But, knowing Perry he will be the first to volunteer to retire later just like the rest of us so that he won’t be looked at as another carpet bagger; while he sits there enjoying that fat tasty Texas chicken dinner; as he grins at the fat pension check in his pocket.

THE EXPLOSIVE ISSUE OF CYBERSEX AND ITS EFFECT ON INTER-PERSONAL AND FAMILIAL RELATIONSHIPS; WELCOME TO THE DO-YOUR-OWN-THING GENERATION OF THE NEW MILLENIUM
Written and Edited by John R. Hernandez, Jr. 10/02/2011 (c) http://www.newdawnmedia.wordpress.com http://www.newdawncommunications.blogspot.com
Someone recently asked a question on social network about cyber-sexing over the internet. Here is my take on this subject. There seems to be some form of conventional wisdom that sort of redefines or crosses the lines from where flirting and boundary perception exists. In my opinion cyber-sexing is another form of role playing or flirting that presides within a realm where the normal and or customary rules and regulations that exist in traditional face to face encounters are absent. No, I think it’s healthy! In fact if you think about it; there is no chance of catching AIDS over a monitor and really who are they cheating with? A piece of hardware and just think he or she is only exercising their muscles. It’s a win-win situation! And think of this, if someone thinks they have a need to go noodling on the internet it’s a sure-fire sign that the relationship may be (something missing or out of place) in need of repair. Either way, catching it when it’s at that stage is a far better cry than having to hire a detective to check up on your spouse? Okay, here is where I tell you that, no it is not healthy to seek out self-gratification over the internet and what you may need is to find space and re-think your relationship and what brought you together in the first place. Relationships in mid-career tend to bottom out at times. Because, when we look outside the bubble (box) we begin to pile up all the reasons about the outside world we may or have been missing. Human relationships take time to cultivate and vary by personalities and environments. If we can but a for moment make some connection to God in this subject we may be enlightened in knowing that this human desire self-gratification ; which some choose to call human nature or getting your freak-off is actually something that is both a mental reaction to outward stimulus and a habitual reaction (learned process). That can, is and will eventually become both a mental and a physical aberration. We don’t always look at perversion or self-gratification as a physical need but, as a mental desire that many of us find difficult to overcome. God gave us all the tools and or steps that we need to encounter through the process of procreation. And I might say for the most part this process when it produces itself in a healthy way within a healthy relationship and follows in a Godly fashion can be one of the most rewarding and precious of male-female human relations. When we take God out of the equation as in for example -the Garden of Eden- what we get in return is a man-made new moon or self-appointed feasts of self-worship and idol self-gratification. The word of God or God himself tells us that we are to have no gods before him. Sex outside of the marriage, cybersex, cheating, getting your freak off or whatever you decide to call it is an action that is not in the nature of God’s expectations for and of mankind. Paul the Apostle said the love of money is the root of all evil and one can say that the love of the self, outside of the natural affection between man and woman or familial relationships is an abomination unto the eyes of the Lord-God and Christ His Son. Think of it this way. When man began to lose the importance between Christ’s blood sacrifice and the blood sacrifice of animals this is when God became irrelevant –because- Christ is no longer the center premise of the God story. And many women and children can consider God and Christ to be unimportant or unnecessary. We don’t need another temple, because the word of God and the New Covenant in and of Christ tells us that we are the Temple of God and that Christ has shed his precious and Holy Blood over us for the redemption of our souls and the forgiveness of our sins. We do not need another blood sacrifice and we certainly do not ever need another blood sacrifice such as; in the blood of bulls, or rams or he goats. When we forget, set aside, eliminate, remove from our lives and minds what Christ’s sacrifice means to mankind; when this happens the rules or God’s laws are thrown out the window and mankind such as in the Garden of Eden story begins to make his own choices and set his own rules on how he/she will run his or her life. This is why we have a lack of control in relationships, the expelling of men from their natural place within the family, a lack of communication in a Godly way in relationships and why we have the problems, troubles, misunderstandings and disasters in nature and humankind we have today. Remember, now that many of the ordinances of God have already begun to be DISMANTLED; The removal of the pledge of allegiance, the removal of the word of God in many academic institutions, the removal of the Godly wisdom of the fathers for their children and families(almost half of all families are single-parent families), the removal of the protection and sanctification of life so that now we have over 50 million little babies murdered at the hands of money mongering organizations and individuals, man’s effectual nature to woman is now traded for the unnatural and unhealthy effectual attraction to other men as is of woman for woman. Let me end it this way. When you self -ingratiate be careful that you are not fulfilling the will of some evil-ancient habitual sin of self-worship. For we struggle not against flesh and blood but against principalities and powers, and rulers of the darkness of this world. And, there is more that I can say about this subject but I know that there are sensitive ears out there and this is a family oriented realm –where- I like to just throw out bits and pieces of the issues and like to leave it up to the grown-ups out there to find their way through the mulberry patch as it pertains to those around the table.

Clash of Titans; The Rising Influence of the New Chieftains of the Digital Age
Written and Edited by John R. Hernandez, Jr. © 2011 http://www.newdawnmedia.wordpress.com http://www.newdawncommunications.blogspot.com
Looking at social media from the point of view of a published author who is competing with other authors to sell books
Chapter 1:
The view from the wall
Like a fly on the wall I take a closer look at the realm of social media with an ear towards flavoring the muses of our present day social trends. Meaning that like many, I am a relative new comer -considering- so many of those I have researched in Facebook -for example- who are to my knowledge polished-and-well known–authors. What I have experienced is that many authors who represent a certain genre; for example, the romance authors. Those whirlwind romance novel types or the turn of the century old-money style English Victorian novel writers or the DIY authors, etc.,… Most of which, who tend to gravitate to cliques sometimes of 10, 20 and more 100 who make their nest in such places as Facebook, LinkedIn and many other social networking sites; where you will find them en-masse gravitating or better yet hovering to their own respective guru tribal chiefs. It is through this chieftain mentality that they validate their group’s existence and develop rules or pecking orders which reinforce -yet stricter boundaries and territorial laws- against outsiders and often insiders. These laws like the laws of say a pack of wolfs are in place just like in any social/corporate business group which sees the main factor of its existence as the survival of the tribe or clan. Here within the social enclave of the group lies the periphery, the stage where all the member/actors play out their ritual/dances before the social media spectators and passersby. Replete with the usual/customary tribal rituals meant to either communicate to the clan or tribe or group, messages that are meant to inform or warn its members about trends, probable new candidate tribal members and or current events within and without their sphere of influence. My argument concerning social media such as Facebook and all the others mentioned or unmentioned is for the purposes of exploring the conversation. and not attacking the eventual values of social media in and of itself. It is what I see when I peer from the wall; that although places like Facebook and others offer vast realms of information on specific groups and their practices within the inner circles of those groups to new- comers on the net, they have yet to sort out the old adages and or old clichés and pecking orders. Tribal attitudes that have stained the reputation of the old guard within the printed book realm and it is within this printed book realm that there are myriads of cliques from every brand of writing style. Just like parachute salesmen and or chicken soup vendors and anyone just walking into the industry will find -pitched- and ready to invite, to warn off and or to destroy the most valiant of souls lurking into the old-guard canvas/paved world of printed matter. And what I am saying is that already no doubt as far back as the first few months of the take-off of eBook publishing; the barriers and lines were beginning to take form in cyberspace. Where, as in the early days of the concrete mortar-paved world of publishing; the clans and factions and warring groups within this new industry have begun to shape the future realms within the re-creation and transformation of traditional book publishing -as we have known it. Just like journalists gravitate to their own specific cliques and parachute salesmen gravitate to their own tribal specific enclaves- so has social media begun to adopt- the attitudes and practices and status quo behavior of the old guard brick and mortar mentality.
Chapter 2:
How open is social media going to be to the untold millions of new and coming indie- authors created by these new phenomena of digital publishing? Imagine that we are going from a few million brick and mortar authors to a catastrophic untold number. Hungry to claim their fair share of sales, audience attention and loyalty amassing and swarming in droves through the whole of the digital social spheres? My answer would be that as with any transformation from the old guard to the new; the old rules and adages have to give some ground to the crashing waves of new ideals and promoters of these new ideas; often where rules have little to no value. Your ideas, however well-meaning –where- the survival or your tribe or clan are now being convoluted and threatened by those of the masses of new authors; who have yet to find their unique spheres of gravitational orbits for which to worship at the lap of the new and rising Digital Age Chieftains!
..Meanwhile, back to the unemployed and putting food on the table….
THERE ARE 15 MILION UNEMPLOYED PERSONS OUT THERE WONDERING WHY IS AMERICA IGNORING THEM
Written and Edited by John R. Hernandez, Jr. (c) 2011 http://www.newdawnmedia.wordpress.com http://www.newdawncommunications.blogspot.com
Not too long ago I created a petition that in my opinion would open the door and I hope the eyes of today’s politicians. A petition that would help get 15 million people back to work. But it fell on deaf ears. You ever wonder how or why it is that what is really strange is how -we can see eye to eye- on this issue but, those around us refuse to step out of their self-created, self-insulated and self-contained world of darkness and apparent ignorance. I will for the sake of 15 million unemployed and more men and women out there who are suffering day and night; the sake of the children and the elderly and those less fortunate amongst us. Try to be upbeat and more optimistic and pray that this petition will not completely fall on deaf ears like the others -I have- proposed. The Lord is my strength and my salvation. I have taken up my cross. Because, out of my weakness I have found my strength. See what comes out of them; see how they speak and what they say closely and you will find the answers. Entitlements as they like to call them to make these acts of kindness and charity seem petty and useless! The shame of it is that when you do have an excellent idea it’s hard to sell it -because- there are some in undeserving positions of power that want this disastrous economic condition to continue. It’s like when the young men and women were sent out to the battle fields riddled with mines. There has been some progress in that area but should it have taken so long, so many lives and so many amputations? Many are actually tuning a profit while others are losing their lives savings just trying to keep a roof over their heads and food on the table. The oil companies are reaping great profits. Instead of the President or someone on Capitol Hill forcing them to lower their prices during these dire economic times they are allowed keep raising prices. As you know, a great deal of that segment of the population that has a steady good paying job and sees and hears what is going on refuses to do anything to help their fellow brothers and sisters in need. The Spirit of the Anti-Christ; that Spirit represented by all the greed and selfishness in mankind is still alive and well and possessing many. But, over this Spirit is the Spirit of the False Christ; the one that lives and breathes in the hearts of man. This same Spirit that is the one -which embodies many in high positions of leadership- is the one charged with the responsibility of gathering the masses of those that have fallen away. This is a powerful Spirit whose ultimate aim is to change; to turn things around; to confuse and to confound; to subjugate and to possess. Pretending otherwise, that they must be in control and given the power to run nations –because- they have brainwashed many into believing that those below them are incapable of ruling themselves!!! The attributes of greed and selfishness feed the fires of hatred and disdain especially against the true children of God. Ultimately, the forces of the evil ones will attempt to take control and once again subjugate mankind until they bring this nation down like they have tried to in the past. Only by dismantling the system that we have grown to know and to love can they hope to control the masses. The Bible tells us in Ephesians’ that we struggle not against flesh and blood but against Powers and Principalities and Rulers of the Darkness of this World. The Bible also warns us that those who have eyes to see should use them and those who have ears to listen should use them but, many have fallen asleep; have fallen away, have lost their true love their true faith and have supplanted it with what on the outside appears true and real but on the inside it is an abomination of all un-cleanliness. The unprecedented political landslides of the last year is a warning to those who have fallen asleep that they need to wake up and fight to support those that have and are trying to bring about a better change for this nation and not an empty useless bunch of gestures and false promises that ultimately will bring back to where we were on the eve of what could have been the greatest disaster this nation would have faced since the Great Depression. What is so sad is how many have been helped by what this administration has done but so few will readily stand up and admit to it. We need to have a government that is strict about leading with a firm conviction that selfishness and greed are the true foundations of all corruption. Finally, take a serious look at what Ephesians is telling us; Rulers with Powers over Principalities in High Places! This is the embodiment of corrupt political systems that rule over mankind!
Apathy is America’s Greatest Enemy
Written and edited by John R. Hernandez, Jr. © 2011 http://www.newdawnmedia.wordpress.com http://www.newdawncommunications.blogspot.com
75 years of relative peace and prosperity have helped to create a nation that is manically self-absorbed on its self and less interested in the threats that are lurking from outside sources and especially from inside its own territories and halls of power. 911 should have been a wakeup call instead it became a global witch-hunt for the search for one man. 15 years since Bin Laden began his global Jihad against America and Israel he was nowhere to be found. In less than three years under the administration of President Obama, Bin Laden is now reportedly dead and many more of his supporters and staunchest partners in crime have fallen. This news would be good if Americans would ever wake up and read between the lines. Somehow I cannot help but think that this will be its undoing. Apathy is America’s greatest enemy. We didn’t crawl in we were forced in by worthless despicable scoundrels. Back in Hitler’s time many in the middle classes and upper classes thought that if they supported the Nazi’s schemes that they would escape the gas chambers and atrocities that followed. Today in America we have a group of people that hate the poor and less fortunate. They find them to be a scourge, a drain on the resources of those who have self-appointed themselves as the caretakers of this new century. Like the Nazi’s of the 1930’s who walked into power at a time when Germany suffered from great economic distress and the demoralization of a lost war. They told the people what they wanted to hear and once having attained power they began to develop a systematic model for control of Western Europe and eventually the world. Unlike Communism who saw religion merely as a callous on the foot Nazism sees religion as its fiercest enemy to be eradicated forever. If you look back you will find how Hitler used and lied to the Catholic Bishops and those in positions of power within the Christian Hierarchies in order that he could attain control of the German people and most of Western Europe. At first the systematic elimination of the poor, the aging, persons of color and others deemed undesirable was thought to have been kept quiet. But soon the news got out and eventually his popularity began to fail as his war machine began to crumble under the heavy pressures of the allied forces. Americans for almost 75 years now have enjoyed the luxuries of an unparalleled freedom. They have fallen asleep by virtue of 75 years of peace and prosperity. But there are elements in this nation and this world working hard and fast to bring this nation to its knees and to recreate the fallen remnants of the Third Reich. Americans have forgotten what the words anarchists and traitors truly mean. Today a segment of those who wield great power over this nation have begun a systematic dismantling of all the great social programs that were built to sustain and support this nation’s elderly, the poor, the infirmed and less fortunate. Thereby diminishing their strength and power to fight back when and at what time the next step in the master plan takes place. By weakening the financial markets, by throwing the economy into a tailspin and pitting this nation against its long-term allies they hope to bring it to its knees and walk into power.

DIG IN AND DO THE SEARCH
By John R. Hernandez, Jr. © 8/2011 http://www.newdawnmedia.wordpress.com http://www.newdawncommunications.blogspot.com
This is the Republican comment to Standard and Poor’s downgrading of the US credit rating, “Unfortunately, decades of reckless spending cannot be reversed immediately, especially when the Democrats who run Washington remain unwilling to make the tough choices required to put America on solid ground,” >> [This statement by Boehner gives the reader the impression that for decades the Democrats have been the spenders] << Speaker John A. Boehner, an Ohio Republican, said in a statement.”…
If I remember correctly it was and has been the Republican’s voracious appetite for control of energy resources at whatever means along with its global warmongering and it’s questionable relationship with defense contracting and spending; not necessarily because of any overall US policy or interest in pursuing major profits in these areas but as a result of a global energy consortium of conglomerates that wish to take hold and have taken hold of much of this previous decades global oil and gas research and exploration projects-at whatever length.
Take for example some of the quotes from HALLIBURTON WATCH.ORG and other internet sites readily available to you once you do the search like I have;…This is just the tip of the iceberg that makes Boehner’s smug eyes roll-over and pretend to know nothing about; just the beginning of a pile of intel you can find if you just do the searches. I don’t get paid to do the searches and bring these comments only that, there should be a fair and balanced dissemination of intel so that people will stop being brainwashed erroneously by the right wing rhetoric against the Democrats. There are lots of things I don’t agree with on the Democratic side and when I am ready I will do my search as you should and expose it for what it is. Furthermore, I am in publishing and media consulting and publicizing my published works such as my new book, “In the Birth of a New Dawn”.
But I have a burning desire to expose human injustice and atrocities against mankind. Something that I had hoped to pursue as I studied at Rutgers trying to get my Journalism Degree and eventual masters. Having to leave it all behind to do what I thought a farther should do when faced with the mother of his child running off 1,000 miles in the opposite direction. I made the conscious choice to chase after her and derail my aspirations. But it never deterred me, my hunger and thirst for social justice has never ands will never be squelched until they put a bullet into my head. Because some of us love our children despite our own best interests and some of us love to fight against social injustices wherever we see them despite the consequences. We may not always be right in someone eyes or succeed but that we bring that fair and balanced approach unlike another is sufficient enough to let the world know that there are two sides to every story and not just one.
Take a look at below;
1). “January 30, 2004: New York Times columnist, Bob Herbert, details how Halliburton evades U.S. taxes and export bans by establishing foreign subsidiaries. Halliburton’s Wendy Hall admits the company paid only $15 million in taxes in 2002 even though the company earned $339 million in profits from continuing operations and $12.5 billion in total revenue.”
But in,
2). “January 2004: Halliburton discloses that a subsidiary paid a $2.4 million bribe to a Nigerian government official’s business in exchange for favorable tax treatment.” From Halliburton Watch.com
Then in,
3). “January 25, 2004: CBS Television’s 60 Minutes program shows how Halliburton does business with Iran even though U.S. law bans companies from doing business with the country.” From HalliburtonWatch.org
And in,
4). “January 26, 2004:New York City’s controller accuses Halliburton of taking blood money from state sponsors of terrorism, such as Iran and Libya. Controller William Thompson – who oversees an $80 billion pension fund for city workers – says cops and firefighters are outraged that their retirement portfolios include stock in U.S. firms getting fat off contracts with rogue nations like Iran, which funds the terror groups Hezbollah and Hamas and is suspected of giving sanctuary to Al Qaeda leaders.” From Halliburton Watch.org
There is so much more but if you don’t go and do the search you will blindly be led by what some on capitol hill or some scoundrels on conservative radio or Christian broadcasting will lead you to believe!
TO BE CONTINUED AT A LATER TIME; SORRY BUT, I GOT TO GO AND MARKET MY BOOKS OTHERWISE I DON’T EAT, CAN’T PAY THE BILLS AND CERTAINTLY WON’T BE ABLE TO BRING YOU ANYMORE INSIGHTFUL INTEL IN A MORE FAIR AND BALANCED WAY!!!!
PREVIEW OF WHAT’S TO COME SOMETIME IN THE FUTURE;
How the Christian Broadcasting radio waves have been taken over by the right wing hiding behind the cloak of religion and moral values to help espouse their rhetoric and to take control of the masses by bombarding them with reckless disinformation.
Why the US Defense Department and the leaders of our armed forces should have been more focused on the fact that an attack was eminent against those involved with the capture of Bin Laden the murderer?
Why did it take so long to capture Bin Laden and why did it take place in July 2011; just at the crux of the declaration of their accumulated war chests by US political parties was about to be revealed?
Why did the gas prices seem to plummet during (June to July) this time and then slowly inch back up to the disastrous levels they have been in for the past years?
Who or what is really behind the fluctuating gas prices and why?
How much money has been spent on global warmongering by the Republican administrations of the George Bush’s? And what effect has it had on our economy and why is so little being talked about this phenomenon?
Who or what is really behind wanting our economy to fail and eventually crash?
Below is a book that you can purchase to help support my ability to keep bringing you more poetry books and from time to time more of that fair and balanced opinions and facts they don’t want you to know; and in return you get to keep an heirloom of poetry worth thousands more the price for one copy.

Other things I do for which I receive no compensation for!!
Fighting for Social Justice
Besides spending tireless hours on the pc working on my webpage’s, creating petitions, working on promoting my books; when everyone else is sleeping and for editing and writing stories and doing the research and creating poetry and being a social watchdog.
I was like you once in the past scared, brainwashed and confused by all the rhetoric. I fought my way out of that and decided to find my own answers to the things that burned inside for which I doubted if I was being told the truth. My book is one way you can support someone just like you. But, in return you get the truth and a nice beautiful book of poetry.
You are not making a donation or contributing to anything. You can buy the book and walk away and or stay and support social justice by purchasing my next book and continue to enjoy and fight for the truth! Never forget the truth is out there.

THINKING ABOUT IT! AN EDITORIAL COMMENT: IGNORANCE BREEDS CORRUPTION!!!! MY DECLARATION OF FAITH AND VALUES
Written and edited by John R. Hernandez, Jr. 7/04/2011 © http://www.newdawnmedia.wordpress.com http://www.newdawncommunications.blogspot.com
This is where I stand on the issues: 1). Pro-Life Forever 2). I believe that God (Yahweh) is real and His Son Jesus died and rose on the Third Day for the sins of mankind. 3) I believe that your actions/choices have a direct effect on your life so they are your problems, not mine; I will pray for you and do what I can; If I believe and trust in your words -I will accept your decisions- but, that doesn’t mean I will support them.. 4). I believe that mankind is capable of ending the world just as fast as he is capable of ending all sorts of pain and suffering; but, when it comes to the unborn child -it- considers that a matter of choice; I stand for the choice to choose life over the death of the child. 5). I believe that the Label of “Entitlements” used by Republicans to demonize the poor and to -disenfranchise those who support protecting the poor- only show what is behind the Conservative Movement in America today. 6). I believe in Fiscal Conservatism as long as I can believe in providing the best and finest support and financial assistance to those in need. That means that I support, Social Security, Medicaid, Welfare, Food Stamps, Job Training, Soup Kitchens, Free After School Programs for All Children, and anyway I can come up with -to get them more help-. 7). I believe in Breaking the Stronghold that higher education has on the ability of the poor to get a free education without strapping them with government or private loans. 8). I believe that religious broadcasters that support individuals or groups that get on Christian Radio to; (A) bash the President -only- because he is a Democrat, (B) to put down the poor and helpless, (C) to talk about patriotism from one side of their mouth; while, from the other-side they demonize the social programs that have helped to provide Americans with a safety-net to help keep them from falling below the poverty level is a hate filled hypocritical mindset. A despicable mindset whose proponents peddle over the airwaves and pulpits of this land; accusing the President, the Democratic Party and others of doing nothing. I think what the President has done already is a far better cry than the hypocritical hate filled lies and ravings of a small few. 9) I believe in providing the poor and defenseless the best available health care, the finest and fairest wages, and guaranteed job safety. What will they cut next>>>OSHA??? I believe in the union philosophy that is free of corruption from the top to the bottom and whose theme is mandatory job protection and security for all. 10). I believe in A REFORMED AFDC System that includes mandatory help for non-custodial fathers as well!!!! 12). I believe in Reforming the Corrupt American Family Court System. 13). I believe in providing the best possible programs to help the poor; to help put food on the table of millions of the elderly, our children and other defenseless Americans. 14). I believe that those who hide behind the Bible (Sacred Scriptures) and the American Flag (Paid for by the Blood of True Patriots) and who are attempting to dismantle this nation’s most prized social programs are hypocrites of the worst kind (FALSE APPOSTLES) and haters of the worst kind! The so-called Conservative message that Republicans are pushing -today- is not and never will be God’s Message! So, please stop lying to yourselves and to the rest of the few gullible Americans out there -silly- enough to fall for your Fear and Warmongering Tactics!!!! 15). I believe that if standing by and supporting the sick, the lame and the poor was good enough for Jesus Christ -then- it’s good enough for me!!! 16). I believe that Unions provide so much help when it comes to a certain level of job protection but, the best unions are those that protect your jobs and help to secure the rights to that job till you retire or God forbid you are forced to look elsewhere. I believe unions owe the American that! Protect the rights of all workers and not just the few in the clique. But, what I don’t believe and what I do believe that definitely needs to change drastically is the corruption from above that seeps downward into the smallest crevices and eventually corrupts and rots those at the bottom. Unabated Corruption can and will destroy any unprotected organization! In case you think there is no corruption at the top? Think about this, “Ignorance Breeds Corruption”. 17). Our Founding Fathers and Framers of the Constitution fought to bring us Freedom from corrupt leaderships, corrupt government, corrupt laws, corrupt judges, corrupt legal systems, corrupt medicine and medical practitioners; corrupt religious institutions, corrupt merchants and those who amass great wealth on the backs of the poor, freedom of education and religion and eventually of speech and expression. They fought to help make this; a land where people from all over the world could come and make a new life; safe and secure from all forms of corruption. But, there is no greater corruption in the world than that -which- is fraught by the corruption of religious principles and moral values.

TODAY COUNTLESS OF CONSERVATIVE AND RELIGIOUS-RIGHT-LEADERS WILL GIVE LONG SPEECHES ON PATRIOTISM, AMERICAN VALUES AND WHY WE SHOULD DO AWAY WITH THE LONG STANDING SOCIAL PROGRAMS THAT HAVE HELPED KEEP MANY AMERICANS -ON THE BOTTOM RUNGS OF SOCIETY- ABOVE POVERTY’S WORST OF LEVELS. THEY WILL JUSTIFY THEIR DEMANDS BY QUOTING SCRIPTURES, THE CONSTITUTION, AND THEIR SLANTED INTERPRETATION OF OUR JUDEO-CHRISTIAN PRINCIPLES.

WORDS OF FAITH FROM INTERNET SOURCES
In his long composition on “The Beatitudes, Part One: The Sermon on the Mount” by John W. Ritenbaugh in his Forerunner, “Personal,” January 1999; he writes that, “There is hardly a verse in the entire Sermon where Jesus is not contrasting what He wants us to be with the way the world was in His day and still is. This is its underlying theme. Human nature never changes, so the same challenges He placed before them face us. Sometimes the contrasts are with the religious Jews and sometimes the Gentiles, but they are always drawn to leave us without excuse about knowing what is expected of us. The Gentiles love and salute each other, but Christians are to love their enemies. They pray after a fashion, “heaping up empty phrases,” but we should pray with the humble thoughtfulness of children to their Father in heaven. They are preoccupied with material necessities, but we are to trust God and seek first His Kingdom and righteousness. The Jews love to proclaim their charity and piety in fasting, but we must give, pray and fast “in secret” by faith, knowing God is aware and looking to Him for response, not the acclaim of others. Thus the Sermon on the Mount teaches us we are to be different—different from both the religious and the irreligious secular world.”

Jesus is Jewish too; hatred and the love of money are the two main roots of all evil

To those who support the Palestinian cause I say this; after your done killing every Jew and pushing them into the Sea and raping their children and torturing their elderly and burning down their lands. What are you going to do when -Jesus the Jew- stands before all of you with all the Hosts of Heaven upon the Mount of Olives? Where are you going to hide? Where are you going to run to? Are you going to run to Facebook and spit one last time in the face of another Jew? You can’t erase the face of Jesus from Jerusalem!!! But, since he died for the sins of the world it isn’t -too late yet- to repent and be free of all your hatred! Don’t wait till it’s too late; I hear there is no end to the torment of HELL!!

“You have heard that it was said, “You shall love your neighbor and hate your enemy.” But I say to you, Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you, so that you may be sons of your Father who is in heaven; for he makes his sun rise on the evil and on the good, and sends rain on the just and on the unjust.” Mathew-
start>>>The following excerpt is borrowed from yahooanswers.com and was posted by Bill: “The record of the Vatican in relationship to the Holocaust is one of the great moral failures in history—one from which the Catholic Church itself has yet to recover,” writes columnist James Carroll in The Boston Globe. To back up his point, he lists the following historical data: “1929—The Lateran Pacts between Mussolini and Pius XI give the Vatican freedom and money, and they give needed prestige to Mussolini. [1933]—The Vatican signs a Concordat with Hitler, his first international success. . . . 1935—Mussolini invades Abyssinia. Catholic bishops bless Italian troops . . . 1939—Mussolini decrees an end to the rights of Jews in Italy. The pope says nothing. . . . 1942—The pope receives reports from Italian army chaplains about the extermination of the Jews. In his Christmas message, he bemoans the fate of ‘unfortunate people’ killed because of their race, but he does not mention Hitler, Germany or the death camps. Once again, the word ‘Jew’ is not used. . . . 1943—Germans begin to round up Jews in Italy, even in Rome near the Vatican. The pope is still silent.” Why the Churches Kept Silent ON DECEMBER 8, 1993, Dr. Franklin Littell of Baylor University spoke at the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum about a troublesome “concrete truth.” What was that? The truth, Littell said, was that “six million Jews were targeted and systematically murdered in the heart of Christendom, by baptized Roman Catholics, Protestants, and Eastern Orthodox who were never rebuked, let alone excommunicated.” One voice, however, did consistently speak out about clergy involvement with Hitler’s regime. And the voice, as we have seen, was that of Jehovah’s Witnesses. Holocaust was the state-sponsored, systematic persecution and annihilation of European Jewry by Nazi Germany and its collaborators between 1933 and 1945.” Jews were the primary victims, but the State policy also sought to eliminate Roma and Sinti (two gypsy tribes), the disabled, Poles, Soviet prisoners of war, homosexuals, Jehovah’s Witnesses, and political dissidents. ”

JEWS RETURN HOME TO WAR AND HATRED
start>>>Excerpt borrowed from Wikipedia: “In 1947, the British government announced it would withdraw from the Mandate of Palestine, stating it was unable to arrive at a solution acceptable to both Arabs and Jews.[68] The newly created United Nations approved the Partition Plan for Palestine (United Nations General Assembly Resolution 181) on November 29, 1947, which sought to divide the country into two states—one Arab and one Jewish. Jerusalem was designated to be an international city—a corpus separatum—administered by the UN.[69] The Jewish community accepted the plan,[70] but the Arab League and Arab Higher Committee of Palestine rejected it.[71] On December 1, 1947, the Arab Higher Committee proclaimed a three-day strike, and Arab bands began attacking Jewish targets.[72] The Jews were initially on the defensive as civil war broke out, but they gradually moved onto the offensive.[73] The Palestinian Arab economy collapsed and 250,000 Palestinian-Arabs fled or were expelled.[74] David Ben-Gurion proclaiming Israeli independence on May 14, 1948, below a portrait of Theodor Herzl On May 14, 1948, the day before the expiration of the British Mandate, the Jewish Agency proclaimed independence, naming the country Israel.[75] The following day, the armies of four Arab countries —Egypt, Syria, Lebanon and Iraq — attacked Israel, launching the 1948 Arab–Israeli War;[76][77] Saudi Arabia sent a military contingent to operate under Egyptian command; Yemen declared war but did not take military action.[78] After a year of fighting, a ceasefire was declared and temporary borders, known as the Green Line, were established.[79] Jordan annexed what became known as the West Bank and East Jerusalem, and Egypt took control of the Gaza Strip. Over 700,000 Palestinians were expelled or fled from Israel during the conflict. Israel was accepted as a member of the United Nations by majority vote on May 11, 1949.[80] In the early years of the state, the Labor Zionist movement led by Prime Minister David Ben-Gurion dominated Israeli politics.[81][82] These years were marked by an influx of Holocaust survivors and Jews from Arab lands, many of whom faced persecution in and expulsion from their original countries.[83] Consequently, the population of Israel rose from 800,000 to two million between 1948 and 1958.[84] Some arrived as refugees with no possessions and were housed in temporary camps known as ma’abarot; by 1952, over 200,000 immigrants were living in these tent cities.[85] The need to solve the crisis led Ben-Gurion to sign a reparations agreement with West Germany that triggered mass protests by Jews angered at the idea that Israel could accept monetary compensation for the Holocaust.[86] In the 1950s, Israel was frequently attacked by Palestinian fedayeen, mainly from the Egyptian-occupied Gaza Strip.[87] In 1950 Egypt closed the Suez Canal to Israel. There was mounting tension and a number of armed clashes took place along all of Israel’s borders. In 1956, Israel joined a secret alliance with Great Britain and France aimed at regaining control of the Suez Canal, which the Egyptians had nationalized (see the Suez Crisis). Israel overran the Sinai Peninsula but was soon pressured to withdraw by the United Nations in return for guarantees of Israeli shipping rights in the Red Sea and the Canal.[88][89]In the early 1960s, Israel captured Nazi war criminal Adolf Eichmann in Argentina and brought him to back to Israel for trial.[90] The trial had a major impact on public awareness of the Holocaust,[91] but Eichmann remains the only person ever to be executed by order of an Israeli court.[92]” The above text was borrowed for illustration purposes only from wikipedia.com and is copyright protected but also a part of the associated CREATIVE commons attributes.

Some Factual Data on the Transportation Needs of the Poor and Aging Populations in Rural Areas
Written and Edited by John R. Hernandez, Jr. http://www.newdawnmedia.wordpress.com http://www.newdawncommunications.blogspot.com
Hello everyone, I wanted to thank you all for your help with this petition and I thought I would offer you some scholarly data that might interest you. I have wanted to write about this issue forever! I can remember putting proposals together as far back as some 15 to 20 years ago; that dealt with any social issue I came across. I have been a victim of transportation problems as I am sure some of you have at one time or another, in your life. The only research I did for this petition was the images that have been embedded in my mind throughout the years. The following data -you will find here- I decided to bring it to your attention –because- I have been concerned about the lack of attention or action this petition has been getting; as well as, I have been concerned about the lack of attention my other petitions have been getting. So, last night on the 17th of July I gathered up some factual data. Hoping, that your friends and family and their friends will see the facts as they have been collected. Although as the authors and researchers suggest that, in this extremely large study, “The aim of this study was to understand rural Black and White older adults’ self-reports of transportation difficulty.” The data collected by these statisticians reveals to us that there is a need for free and expanded transportation services that should be provided for the poor in rural areas and especially to those in the aging populations. Below are sample quotes from different investigators which reveal the negative effects of inadequate transportation services on the poor and elderly in rural areas. If you would like to study this subject further I urge you to visit; http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2758564/ Transportation Difficulty of Black and White Rural Older Adults Nan Sook Park, Ph.D.,ab Lucinda L.

In emergency circumstances,… transportation difficulty can mean the difference between life and death (Gullette, 2006; Parker et al., 2007).” Furthermore, “Rural residents disproportionately experience transportation difficulty because rural areas are sparsely populated and lack public transportation services (Arcury et al., 2005a, 2005b). Rural elders are subject to higher transportation costs than their urban counterparts because walking and public transportation are typically not feasible options, and their trips are likely to be longer (Rosenbloom, 2004).” And, “Although transportation fundamentally influences access to various services and thus affects quality of life, 40% of the U.S. population in rural areas have no public transportation services available, and 25% have insufficient transportation (Glasgow, 2000a). In rural areas without public transportation, taxi services are rare or likely to be prohibitively expensive. Although some senior centers in rural areas provide van transportation, rural elders’ transportation options are typically limited to walking, bicycling, or using a private vehicle.” In Addition to that the authors of these papers suggest that, “The proportion of older persons who live in rural areas (14.7%) is higher than in metropolitan areas (11.9%) and rural older adults have to travel longer distances than urban older adults to access services and activities (Rosenbloom, 2004). Rural older adults tend to be older, have lower economic status, and be in poorer health than urban older adults (Roff & Klemmack, 2003).” My Thanks to all scientists and researchers who worked tirelessly on these projects to help with this issue -as I have- with this petition in my own small way -as well as- all of you who have taken the time to sign it and tell everyone you know; the importance of expanding transportation to the rural poor and elderly populations cannot be overlooked any longer. Can you imagine, when I was a small child I remember walking along dilapidated planks of old wood after the monsoon rains just to keep from slipping into the mud holes left behind. In those days the only means of transportation in the poorest of areas in that island were your feet.
Thanks again, John R. Hernandez, Jr.

The Growing Class Divide in America and the Legacy of Inaction
Why I believe in what I Believe
By John R. Hernandez, Jr. 7/11 http:www.newdawnmedia.wordpress.com http:www.newdawncommunications.blogspot.com
Parts of this message have been inserted here to emphasize my points -more strongly- and others have been combined with notes I’ve written to those around me. Taken from the context of my own experiences with my so-called friends and trying to explain how I feel about the causes that affect me and those around me.
From my book “Living the Life; A Social Reformers Look at the Growing Class Divide and Apathy in 21st Century America”
From Chapter One: Why I do what I do; speaking out when others are Silent
A social reformer must begin by taking his messages to the people closest to him. Have you ever heard the comment that a prophet is never welcomed of his own? Because as in biblical antiquity’s days they were sent to the heathen and or to those within his or her own country or nation to bring them (sinners-backsliders) a message of rebuke for the most part or to show them the path they needed to take to bring about change. So I ask you why, am I any better? When I bring the messages of change and progress to our global societies and people just sit back and enjoy the show –but- refuse to take action? Some of us fight by spreading the word, by creating social networks, by creating websites and publishing insightful reports and comments, by getting others to get involved, by building bridges between nations, by supporting those in the trenches of social apathy and wars on injustice and oppression. And others just sit back! The majority of the causes I fight against have been causes I have been a victim of and I also fight the causes I have not been a victim of. Lately, I have been asked why I delete people from my friend’s list. To be honest I am a fighter and a loner. I have fought my greatest fights on my own; all my life. I have watched as discrimination has waged war with my life and I have fought back at times and in others I have walked away to live to fight another day. But those of you who claim to call yourselves -my friends- have to know one thing. I am serious about the causes I choose to fight. And I dedicate almost all my waking and night hours -almost always- to develop and polish a fine messages; to help get out to the audience –whoever- that may be. But when people choose to be my friends I expect them to acknowledge what I say and do; and if in the least to support my causes –because- in my mind I feel they are worthy of support. I don’t ask for money! I ask for you to go to my websites and leave your comments; that include –wherever- I may publish my books and wherever I publish my comments ad opinions that the majority of you so much enjoy! If and when I get tired of some of you not showing your support I slowly and discreetly will delete you from my friends list. I don’t need friendship for popularities sake. But, for the sake of the causes. So if you truly believe in what I believe you will support me in my causes. In those causes that you do not; all I expect is your comment on why you don’t support that cause. But when you just sit back and get entertained by my comments and what I say and write on here and do not make the effort to show your support- believe me- eventually you will find yourself deleted. We can agree to disagree and go our separate ways with no hard feelings. Writing and producing countless hours and countless thousands of words each and every week to keep up with all my websites is time consuming and it also takes up time that I could be utilizing for other things. But, I cannot -because- there is no support, only rhetoric. I wanted this to be an open referendum; a roundtable of ideas and friends from all over the globe to exchange our ideas on social and policy issues. Of which, I have spent time in my life experiencing and then in schools and eventually in university learning to develop my abilities -to bring all of you these messages- about the homeless, the poor, the elderly, political corruption. Why this nation allows 15 million people to beg for work when corporations pay little to no taxes, and then -take the means- to push some back out unto the streets and others in, to get job tax credits? I am concerned about the issues of the handicapped, those with incurable deceases like AIDS and other illnesses, the issues concerning poor rural Americans and not the issues of those who choose to retire to rural America to live a life of apathy and disconnect for those less fortunate around them. I am concerned about the issues that affect the health of single mothers; those of teenage suicide, prostitution, drugs and gangs. And those that concern non-custodial fathers which are just as real and painful -but which- so many ignore, and that insults me. Why millions of children should have to grow up without their fathers, why women take men for granted and use them so they can get the welfare, tax credits and child support? Why we need to reform the American family court system -as well as- the global family court systems replete with unjust and oppressive policies? There is so much discrimination in hiring practices, why we can’t seem to get a national recycling of waste products into law, why we can’t seem to find alternative fuels that don’t degrade the environment, why must we spend trillions of dollars fighting wars for other people who are spitting in our faces and saying we are weak? Why we let politicians dictate our social programs; why are our social programs badly administered and in need of reform and re-strengthening? Why the poor need adequate and affordable housing; for which they should prove they will work for and deserve and not just to get a voucher and give nothing back to this nation –who- has provided them with all these programs and help? I want to see people –become- more accountable for what they get! Just like all of you who enjoy all my comments and posts!!! I saw firsthand how the government completely demolished an otherwise clean and happy neighborhood I lived as a child -because- the federal government’s national housing program law was taking our homes to build housing for the so-called poor; within ten years that neighborhood had been turned into a nightmare of gangs, slums and drugs. This is what I mean when I say that many if not all of our social programs are wrongly administered and badly in need of reform. I see the way our government rewards those in the upper levels of the American social strata -who are there to administer all our social programs- but, like so many others out there are just sitting back and collecting their pay while, occasionally handing out empty gestures and opinions. These are the real paper pushers; masters at the game of cards they play with our lives. I have a thousand other causes I want to fight about. I can do it all alone or with your help. It’s up to you. I can see that none of you have gone to my Smashwords.com book pages to leave your comments, or my Barnes and Noble.com, Diesel.com, Scrollmotion.com, Apple.com, Sony.com, or any of my newdawncomm websites and left your comments or my social networking websites or any sites at all -and I especially feel insulted- when I see my so-called friends ignore all my petitions! Why? You don’t want to help the unemployed? You don’t want to help the rural poor? Or Help get America back to work? It doesn’t make any sense to me to have friends on here and any other site who are just in it for the ride! My political views are middle of the road. I don’t bend liberal or conservative. I am a reporter at heart! I am a social activist at heart! I am a believer in Jesus Christ at Heart! And the rest I am sure you already have read on all my posts. But I do believe in tolerance, because I am not your judge and jury; there is one greater than me whose job is exactly that and you surely know who that is. I fight the causes that I fight in the best way I know how and if none of you have the guts to fight them with me ore the brains to support and contribute your ideas or comments; in the least, to help grow this movement then I can go it alone. I am not looking to be president or mayor or senator. Only to help the less fortunate amongst us; the ones who can’t or wont fight back –because- they have been beaten down so badly they are speechless. But, I feel and hear their cries just by looking in their eyes; unlike so maybe out there who choose to walk on by and not care. There are –some- who live happy lives and work in cushy jobs and -some- who are tired of begging for help. These two groups are at war with themselves; because, the former don’t think the poor deserve their help and the latter would much rather let everyone else go down with them. What a sadly pathetic way to look at things.

“When…”
By John R Hernandez, Jr. © 2011 http://www.newdawnmedia.wordpress.com http://www.newdawncommunications.blogpsot.com Excerpts from my new book “Beyond the Dawn” English and Spanish versions of this poem. The secret behind this poem will be revealed to the 500th buyer.
When I see the beauty in you; not from this inherited ancient bestial compulsion, not from the innate thirst to taste your lips and deflower the beauty in your innocence, not from when I fantasize the thoughts of having and making you my conquest. Or from when these inner demons rise inside of me forcing me to touch you and not when this insatiable longing to hold you in my arms burns the very thought of seeing me inside of you; no, not from when your smile entraps my world and I scream from the very depths of my soul to be your slave; to do your will, to cry and salivate beneath the shadows of all the fantasies and games you play while you’re tearing my heart into pieces as you walk away once more…
“Cuando”
By John R. Hernández, Jr. © 2011
Cuando veo esa belleza entre ti; no desde esa compulsión bestial anciana, no desde esa sed interna que me requiere saborear tus labios y desnudar la belleza entre tu inocencia, no cuando las fantasías entre mis pensamientos desean conquistarte, no desde cuando estos malditos demonios entre mí me esfuerzan tocarte, no cuando esta hambre por tocar tus manos quema por dentro cada gana de estar entre ti, no cuando tu sonrisa esclava mi mundo y grito desde lo más profundo de mi alma por querer ser tu esclavo otra vez más; de tus deseos, llorar y rogar debajo de tus pasos entre esa oscuridad y todas tus fantasías y esos juegos que dejan en mil pedazos mi corazón cuando te vas otra vez…

“Innocent Silence”
By John R. Hernandez, Jr.
Together the pain ceases, the shallow silence of despair is broken. Somewhere beyond the darkness lays the veil; the whispering wind hisses and frowns aimlessly. Forever; a moment in your arms. Eternity; the dying embers of a thought unspoken. An unquenchable fire subdued by the naked wings of fate and the crushing depths of dawn, splintering the twilight. My love; the endless reflection of my soul before your eyes as the rushing torment of this cold and lonely river flows on; like the burning passion in our hearts. Yesterday’s tears turn cold again, moments like the rain washing away the still quiet whispers of this innocent silence.

Hoarding is Alive and Well in Today’s Corporate World
By John R. Hernandez, Jr. ©2011
http://www.newdawnmedia.wordpress.com http://www.newdawnmedia.wordpress.com http://www.newdawncommnucations.blogspot.com
With the latest July-2011 -jobs update- spelling doom and gloom for the 15 million and more unemployed; Corporate America has just fired another salvo at the US Labor Department by sending thousands more back out unto the unemployment lines. Can you be defined as; an older American, handicapped, poor and Latino or Black or any number of other persons -who fall- or have fallen- below the poverty line; an ex-felon or someone with a criminal record, or just simply a member of the displaced long-term unemployed? If you said “yes” to any or a combination of any of the above, your chances of finding and securing a job are miserably minute. Why? As in Hitler’s era “undesirables” where those type-cast as a dispensable/expendables and as it reads on dictionary.reference.com the definition for dispensable is “–adjective 1. Capable of being dispensed with or done without; not necessary and or essential. 2. capable of being dispensed or administered.” It has come to my attention that hoarding did not go out with the last Neanderthal Ice Age or neither has its popularity been diminished by the “Hoarders” show over satellite networks. No, my friends- the practice of hoarding is still alive and well across the globe. But, in my opinion the most hideous of places Hoarding is alive and growing is in Corporate America, –as-well-as-anywhere the possibility of a job will exchange hands between an employer or its agents and any possible prospect. Today, employers and their agents hoard jobs!! The reasons why they do this despicable act or acts is for the same reasons a child hoards candy or toys or anything near them. Hoarding is another way of exercising one’s power around their subordinates or peers. One barters this power by way of exchanging favors such as for admiration, status imaging, prowess, click building and maintenance and keeping out certain members of societal groups, etc.,,! In some circles hoarding is big business and profitable for certain members of a specific race. Take for example, why are so many firemen and police “public servants” in the upper US East Coast members of a specific ethnic group? When one looks at the statistics one -like me- walks away scratching his head. Even in the face of all the laws that say that this should not be happening it is -right before- our eyes. That is hoarding! There are well over 15 million Americans today unemployed and –because- I have brought this issue up -I will be demonized. Not for speaking the truth –but- for not keeping my mouth shut and simply finding some –whole- somewhere unheard and unseen. Going against the grain has its pitfalls -in this society- and some have been buried like out in the middle of some landfill. Never the less, hoarding will continue unabated in Corporate America -until- those behind the walls of the US Labor Department decide to get up off their over- paid tushes and do something about it.
Your tireless unpaid Societal Servant,
John R. Hernandez, Jr.
Let’s all sign this petition so that we can help a few Americans get a real job! Shall We?

OVERVIEW OF MY PETITION ON CHANGE.ORG
By John R. Hernandez, Jr. © 2011-NDMH
Get America Working Again With My New Nationwide Program
My new program is important because nothing is getting done to help get a greater number of the 15 to 20 million people back to work. Corporations have become very skilled at figuring out ways to get more done with less. Because of the lucrative rewards of Workforce Initiatives via Job Credits many companies have adopted unspoken rules and practices of separating the hiring pool and favoring TANF recipients and those on public assistance over others who are searching for work but don’t meet the Workforce Guidelines. By limiting the workforce to a certain segment of the population; this would benefit many corporations scavenging for job credits which I feel is borderline discrimination. Furthermore, this only helps to isolate available individuals seeking employment and forces them back to the unemployment lines. The states are doing very little to help get the long term back to work when they are not scrutinizing the process of hiring. Fifteen Million unemployed tells me there is something wrong here that needs to get fixed quick and forcing capable people back out on the streets while favoring others because that helps to line your pockets, is shameful and unfair. Outsourcing jobs has practically destroyed the semi-skilled to skilled positions out there, while streamlining work details has affected the overall total makeup of most companies. Farming out -hiring processes- to temporary staffing agencies in order to transfer most of the payroll and general benefit responsibilities tells me that corporations are still up to their old tricks. They are battening down the hatches and turning the American Workforce into another disposable commodity! In a society where more and more pressure is being placed on the few members of the workforce not affected by permanent layoffs or cut backs.
THE NUTS AND BOLTS OF MY NEW NATIONWIDE PROGRAM:
A Petition in Support of a Two Part Referendum:
PART I: To Make States Accountable to Create Jobs Based on their Number of Unemployed Individuals Residents.
PART II: In Order to Restore Our Economic Engine and Thereby Restore the Lives of 15 Million or More Unemployed Americans this Referendum Must Require Provisions for the Following to be Included as Guarantees to Insure the Success of this Effort.
By John R. Hernandez, Jr. © 6/11 http://www.newdawncommunications.blogspot.com http://www.newdawnmedia.wordpress.com
Statement of Provisions:
When have you heard the feds going after any state because they reneged on their mandatory obligations to create an X number of jobs? What if we could (Provision #1) make them create X number of jobs and base that figure on the rate of unemployed individuals? So that now they have a federally mandated obligation to create jobs in their respective states. But wait it gets better! What if tied to this were another (Provision #2) obligation that would require every state department of labor to audit all their agencies within their state to make sure that all the information they provide to prospective job seekers was up to date, guaranteed reliable and that the jobs they sought out for job seekers were qualified jobs that met guidelines. Which would guarantee a livable wage, not just based on the states minimum wage criteria -but- based on the particular individuals set of circumstances. For example if you have an individual who was making $2,000 per month but lost their job through no fault of their own? Then, the new guidelines would have to say that a formula based on that persons financial obligations to his family, to the roof over his or her head, to children living outside the home; for which he or she is responsible for providing every day subsistence -to be- counted including all his debts to creditors and any payments he or she is obligated to make. (Provision #3) To guarantee that while they are unemployed and for three years after they are reemployed that no court action can be taken against them for any unpaid fines, unpaid court orders, unpaid tax liens, unpaid backed up child support, unpaid student loans obligations, unpaid traffic fines, unpaid property taxes, unpaid obligations to any loans including interest. This is a mandate; a referendum to see if it will be possible for the American people to get back on their feet without having to look over their backs just when they finally find work. It gives them piece of mind, and just when you thought it couldn’t get any better. Check this out! (Provision #4) A guarantee that if once they do get a job that satisfies all their necessities and they keep that job for a length of three years without interruption and they abide by all the rules of the prescribed agreement; that a percentage of their fines and debt will be forgiven and some of their debt will be forgiven in its entirety. How does this nation or this government expect to help get America back on its feet and productive again if all it wants to do is bail out the rich and famous and do nothing to bail out the long term unemployed and hurting. People are cash strapped, about to lose their homes and many already have; to hungry lenders. But if we could put a stop to that and guarantee to the American people that we will draw up a plan to help get them back on their feet and it will start with an agreement of -debt forgiveness- if they abide by all the rules of this agreement and in 36 months or so they can be almost or completely debt free. I imagine that, the small loan you may owe your old alma mater disappeared because you abided by the agreement that guaranteed you freedom and your transcripts back to go out and continue your blocked education dreams? Imagine all but a portion of your property taxes disappeared because you made the right decision and stuck by the plan. Imagine those huge federal student loan debts reduced so drastically you finally know you can breathe again because you followed the agreement guidelines. Imagine all debt gone or almost gone because you finally got an agreement that will guaranteed to bail you out too; just like the big three and the multi-million financial institutions got? So what do you think? We got to roll up our sleeves and get 15 million people back on their feet -breathing again- and no care in the world for them; no more looking behind their shoulder, no more changing addresses every time the government or the credit card companies or the banks or any debtors come with the garnishment notices and liens? All gone or almost gone! Give us three years of your life, get through our boot camp Agreement Guidelines and soon you will have the freedom to travel, to invest again, to never again be afraid to open up a bank account and start saving again. Imagine, guaranteed job training in the field d of your choice, guaranteed pay while training that meets or exceeds your wildest expectations (rewards incentives for job training) just follow our guidelines that is all we ask. Give us three years of your time and we will get you back on track. After all the big financial institutions got back on track within 18 months as well as the big three! Why can’t we make that promise to the American people? Wait a minute I think I hear a question from the peanut gallery on the right side of the aisle, yes ok what is it? Oh yes you’re asking how are we going to pay for this socialist agenda? Hmm?? Let see, well one day at a time! This is an investment in the American people and on this nation’s economy. I think the rich corporations would be glad to pitch in, let’s see, oh yes private philanthropists; J. Paul Getty what did you say you’ll chip in a few hundred billion? My goodness I think that just about will cover it! But if there are any other generous benefactors out there, oh yeah, Donald Trump, glad to make your acquaintance; for once you’re investing in the real apprentices! And oh yeah Iraq, Afghanistan, Pakistan Saudi Arabia, Yemen, and all our friends in the Middle East who have enjoyed the benefits of all our gestures of good will –courtesy- of the US Armed Forces; of course will take your check, oh wait a minute better send it to our Pay Pal account, its quicker! Oh and Canada –yes- I forgot about that small issue of Free Trade; sure will take a check, how much $100.00 Billion -no problem- you can send the rest in quarterly installments to the Peoples National Referendum Headquarters C/O to the officer in charge of the accounts to Restore the Jobs and Lives of 15 Million Americans. But wait, you say you can’t do it? Okay, send him back to the back of the line! Back to when we were being held hostage by student loans, revolving unemployment lines AND short term jobs, etc.

If you made it to the bottom of this document you may want to take another closer look at what I already mentioned above as to the why so many millions of Americans with Land and Home Contract Package Deals for purchase of homes have been completely ignored by everyone up on Capitol Hill; during and after all the hearings and hoopla over the mortgage spectacles in the face of this most horrific of recessions. Shameful!!

Some Factual Data on the Transportation Needs of the Poor and Aging Populations in Rural Areas
Written and Edited by John R. Hernandez, Jr. http://www.newdawnmedia.wordpress.com http://www.newdawncommunications.blogspot.com
Hello everyone, I wanted to thank you all for your help with this petition and I thought I would offer you some scholarly data that might interest you. I have wanted to write about this issue forever! I can remember putting proposals together as far back as some 15 to 20 years ago; that dealt with any social issue I came across. I have been a victim of transportation problems as I am sure some of you have at one time or another, in your life. The only research I did for this petition was the images that have been embedded in my mind throughout the years. The following data -you will find here- I decided to bring it to your attention –because- I have been concerned about the lack of attention or action this petition has been getting; as well as, I have been concerned about the lack of attention my other petitions have been getting. So, last night on the 17th of July I gathered up some factual data. Hoping, that your friends and family and their friends will see the facts as they have been collected. Although as the authors and researchers suggest that, in this extremely large study, “The aim of this study was to understand rural Black and White older adults’ self-reports of transportation difficulty.” The data collected by these statisticians reveals to us that there is a need for free and expanded transportation services that should be provided for the poor in rural areas and especially to those in the aging populations. Below are sample quotes from different investigators which reveal the negative effects of inadequate transportation services on the poor and elderly in rural areas. If you would like to study this subject further I urge you to visit;
http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2758564/
“Transportation Difficulty of Black and White Rural Older Adults Nan Sook Park, Ph.D.,ab Lucinda L. Roff, Ph.D.,ab Fei Sun, Ph.D.,bc Michael W. Parker, Ph.D.,ab David L. Klemmack, Ph.D.,bd Patricia Sawyer, Ph.D.,ef and Richard M. Allman, M.D.efga School of Social Work, The University of Alabamab Center for Mental Health and Aging, The University of Alabamac Department of Social Work, Arizona State University New College Program and Department of Criminal Justice, The University of Alabama The Division of Gerontology, Geriatrics, and Palliative Care, University of Alabama at Birmingham Center for Aging, University of Alabama at Birmingham[,] Birmingham/Atlanta VA Geriatric Research, Education and Clinical Center Corresponding Author: Nan Sook Park, Ph.D., Assistant Professor, School of Social Work, Box 870314, The University of Alabama, Tuscaloosa, Alabama 35487-0314, Phone: (205) 348-4441, Fax: (205) 348-9419, E-mail: npark@bama.ua.edu The author’s analysis reveals that, “Difficulty with transportation in rural settings can result in social isolation and deterioration of quality of life in addition to limited access to services. In emergency circumstances,… transportation difficulty can mean the difference between life and death (Gullette, 2006; Parker et al., 2007).” <<Direct quote from their webpages.
Furthermore, “Rural residents disproportionately experience transportation difficulty because rural areas are sparsely populated and lack public transportation services (Arcury et al., 2005a, 2005b). Rural elders are subject to higher transportation costs than their urban counterparts because walking and public transportation are typically not feasible options, and their trips are likely to be longer (Rosenbloom, 2004).” And, “Although transportation fundamentally influences access to various services and thus affects quality of life, 40% of the U.S. population in rural areas have no public transportation services available, and 25% have insufficient transportation (Glasgow, 2000a). In rural areas without public transportation, taxi services are rare or likely to be prohibitively expensive. Although some senior centers in rural areas provide van transportation, rural elders’ transportation options are typically limited to walking, bicycling, or using a private vehicle.” In Addition to that the authors of these papers suggest that, “The proportion of older persons who live in rural areas (14.7%) is higher than in metropolitan areas (11.9%) and rural older adults have to travel longer distances than urban older adults to access services and activities (Rosenbloom, 2004). Rural older adults tend to be older, have lower economic status, and be in poorer health than urban older adults (Roff & Klemmack, 2003).” My Thanks to all scientists and researchers who worked tirelessly on these projects to help with this issue -as I have- with this petition in my own small way -as well as- all of you who have taken the time to sign it and tell everyone you know; the importance of expanding transportation to the rural poor and elderly populations cannot be overlooked any longer. Can you imagine, when I was a small child I remember walking along dilapidated planks of old wood after the monsoon rains just to keep from slipping into the mud holes left behind. In those days the only means of transportation in the poorest of areas were your feet.
Thanks again, John R. Hernandez, Jr. http://www.newdawnmedia.wordpress.com http://www.newdawncommunications.blogspot.com

“CAN YOU IMAGINE OUT OF CLOSE TO 900 VISITS TO MY WEBSITES”
Behind Closed Doors; the inheritance of being cursed
By John R. Hernandez, Jr. © 7/2011 http://www.newdawnmedia.wordpress.com http://www.newdawncommunications.blogspot.com
“I started a petition one month ago today to help get free and expanded transportation for the rural poor and all but 16 people signed it. Those of us who have the gift of a compassionate heart can only wonder why the rest of America and the world could care less about the aging, about the plight of the poor and or about poverty itself! We live in a society obsessed with aborting what confines them; what deprives them of their so-called individualism, what encroaches upon their perceived rights, what violates their ability to do as they please.” By John R. Hernandez, Jr.
In the Genesis of biblical history the children of Israel were told to kill and destroy everything they came upon when entering Canaan. Did they listen? No. For this reason God set them up to become as despicable as those they were told to destroy. It is important to note this great event in Jewish history if you are to try and understand why people act and behave the way they do in today’s world. To understand the reasons why the people of Canaan were the way they were; you have to go back to the story of Noah and his sons and how Ham uncovered his father’s nakedness. But suffice it to say that once Noah was made aware of this account he cursed the offspring of Ham. When one looks further into the offspring of Ham one sees that the land of Canaan was riddled with every kind of debauchery and false god worship. This explains why God told Joshua not to let the Israelites adopt the Canaanite’s pagan practices, but to destroy everything in sight. They worshipped hundreds of gods and their fornication rivaled that of today’s freest spirited amongst us. When we jump ahead to today’s day and age we find society still split along two lines. One side is bent on living out a life of; Hatred, Greed, Envy, and Jealousy –while- succumbing to the most aberrant of human emotions and behaviors. Take our aging Baby Boomer population and the attention and care given to those already too frail to fend themselves . In the later years we see our parents as they fade away and waste with age; some of us are compassionate, caring and loving. While others simply could care less. The average elderly person that gets put into senior housing has been -at some time in their life- a victim of abuse by their family members; children, brothers and sisters and spouse. The record of the crimes inflicted on the elderly is mind boggling. Most family members don’t care or understand the physical and medical frailties that afflict their aging family members. Neglect and abandonment are two of the most prevalent afflictions suffered by the aging populations. I started a petition one month ago today to help get free and expanded transportation for the rural poor and all but 16 people signed it. Those of us who have the gift of a compassionate heart can only wonder why the rest of America and the world could care less about the aging, about the plight of the poor and or about poverty itself! We live in a society obsessed with aborting what confines them; what deprives them of their so-called individualism, what encroaches upon their perceived rights, what violates their ability to do as they please. Imagine we live in a world where hundreds of Nazi Holocaust murderers can live just about anywhere; even though these people have committed the most horrendous crimes against humanity. The crux of the matter is how humanity has allowed them to slip past their noses. When, God forbid you should offend someone or try and impede them from doing -something- that otherwise would go against all known moral turpitude. If humanity could care less about Nazi murderers living under their noses what makes you think they are going to care about the welfare of their own family members? We live in a society that loves to paint this picture perfect portrait of how wonderful and beautiful life really is; when deep down inside behind closed doors there is a miserable dysfunctional relationship between family members. Despite how many times people go to church they can never seem to get it right and this is what brings them back to another day of sermons and hymns; believing that their actions will vindicate their atrocious behaviors against their family, friends, strangers, co-workers and often God himself. When you look back at the mistakes made by the Israelites and God’s punishment for refusing to follow his instructions it is easy to understand why some people refuse to obey God and follow the straight and narrow. God has made it so easy for mankind to survive and thrive without his constant intervention. –JRH! 2011

“The true man knows his place amongst God’s nature, he is pleased with the works of his Lord, everyday he gives thanks for the wonders he sees….make me a holy instrument for your will, show me the way and I will follow you till the ends of the Earth, I will rejoice in the pleasures of your grace and give thanks….embrace me with your Cloak of Armor, indwell me with your Holy Spirit, shower me day and night with the Precious Blood of your Most Blessed Son Jesus Christ, who was and is and ever will…let my every breath, my every thought, my every heartbeat, be for you my Lord and Savior…that I may never cease from loving you, from thinking of you, from living for you…..even though I may be discouraged let your joy sing in me , breath in me your precious words of love, walk with me where no one will, sit with me when no one will, hold me in your arms and lift me up when all have abandoned me let me hear your footsteps beside me, let me stand beneath your most holy shadow, be that door that opens for me, when the night draws near and the curtains fall, when the rivers run where I cannot for faint keep up, when the wind and the rain rise up before me let the light of your love show me the way, the wings of your Holy Angels guide me through the storm, consuming me with your love and joy as I put today’s pain away forever till the dawn of a new day awakens me in your precious, blessed holy arms once again….” ©JRH 2011

Who is as powerful as my Lord and Savior, as cunning and wise, who can create all of your tomorrows and still the stars up in the sky, and the thoughts of your mind, and count every beat and every breath you take; but he, who is and was and ever will Jehovah Adonai, can any man hear him breath, yet he can hear a million and more , can any man stand beside his awe and not shutter as he wonders before him, in all creation and all there is and ever was he is creator of it all and yet you wonder, you pause and think and scheme, you tremble beneath his lightning and storms and hide when the whirlwind draws near, when the night envelopes you, when sleep overtakes you; you reach to him, to touch him -to wonder- if he is????” © JRH 2011
A Greedy Self Serving Mankind; Worshipping Amongst the Synagogues of Satan
By John R. Hernandez, Jr. 7/11 http://www.newdawnmedia.wordpress.com http://www.newdawncommunications.blogspot.com
You ever ask yourself why do the greedy and naive scum of the earth always seem to rise to the top, while the pure and most blessed of souls have to grumble down in the muck and mire to make a living down here on God’s green earth? You ever wonder why humanity allows millions of unborn babies to be dumped down the toilet every year; unwanted, unloved, despised for what little life they represent to the ungodly and despicable amongst us. You ever wonder why hatred and envy is so prevalent today; why video games and pornography is so popular; why drugs and alcohol are the choicest ways of facing reality; why children are abandoned as are the elderly; why the greedy seem to just get greedier. Every day we pass someone on the streets and we may smile or look the other way or stare uneasily; we go home we turn on the boob tube and watch someone’s life rolled out before us and then we watch as the experts dissect the true meaning of their malaise and then lay it all out before us. We peer into the smallest minutest particles of DNA to get to the bottom of whom or why this person did what he/she did to that other person. We preoccupy our minds, we push it all out and fill it back again with everything we think we like and everything we believe fits neatly into the world we have created for ourselves. But have we ever really asked the question; is this the world we want to live in? Is this the world we truly have created or is it a world that has been diabolically crafted just for our consumption, for our taste buds, to direct and control the pains and yearnings of our compulsive behaviors?
You know what people want most of all? Someone they can depend on and who will not betray them; someone who won’t smile in front of their face while behind those eyes detest the ground they stand on. This is what people want. They want to build networks of friends all around the globe, if possible. Friends who will be there for them in times of need with prayer, love and material help. Instead they rely on the big corporations to do it all for them and they believe their lies all the while the top most wealthy get wealthier and arrogantly thumb their noses at them. Telling them they deserve their riches; all those cars, boats, homes, money in the bank, properties, businesses, jewelry, clothes –because- they feel they worked hard for what they got. We live in a greedy self serving world where pain and suffering is a way of life for so many out there. There are so few in high places that truly care for those at or near the bottom and what little we or they have down here they want to hold unto. To keep the rest of us away from their grain of wealth, from their private little miserable world, alienating the rest of us around them never realizing that what little they may have and what little we may have is slowly corroding. Slowly fading away, slowly drifting from ours and their hands –because- through that dust storm of hatred and despair -there are many up on top- who would like to see that little bit of charity or love or help taken away.

ON THE PALESTINIAN-ISRAEL ISSUE
To those who support the Palestinian because I say this; after your done killing every Jew and pushing them into the Sea and raping their children and torturing their elderly and burning down their lands. What are you going to do when -Jesus the Jew- stands before all of you with all the Hosts of Heaven upon the Mount of Olives? Where are you going to hide? Where are you going to run to? Are you going to run to Facebook and spit one last time in the face of another Jew? You can’t erase the face of Jesus from Jerusalem!!! But, since he died for the sins of the world it isn’t -too late yet- to repent and be free of all your hatred! Don’t wait till it’s too late; I hear there is no end to the torment of HELL!!

“You have heard that it was said, “You shall love your neighbor and hate your enemy.” But I say to you, Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you, so that you may be sons of your Father who is in heaven; for he makes his sun rise on the evil and on the good, and sends rain on the just and on the unjust.” Mathew-
start>>>The following excerpt is borrowed from yahooanswers.com and was posted by Bill:
“The record of the Vatican in relationship to the Holocaust is one of the great moral failures in history—one from which the Catholic Church itself has yet to recover,” writes columnist James Carroll in The Boston Globe. To back up his point, he lists the following historical data: “1929—The Lateran Pacts between Mussolini and Pius XI give the Vatican freedom and money, and they give needed prestige to Mussolini. [1933]—The Vatican signs a Concordat with Hitler, his first international success. . . . 1935—Mussolini invades Abyssinia. Catholic bishops bless Italian troops . . . 1939—Mussolini decrees an end to the rights of Jews in Italy. The pope says nothing. . . . 1942—The pope receives reports from Italian army chaplains about the extermination of the Jews. In his Christmas message, he bemoans the fate of ‘unfortunate people’ killed because of their race, but he does not mention Hitler, Germany or the death camps. Once again, the word ‘Jew’ is not used. . . . 1943—Germans begin to round up Jews in Italy, even in Rome near the Vatican. The pope is still silent.”
Why the Churches Kept Silent
“ON DECEMBER 8, 1993, Dr. Franklin Littell of Baylor University spoke at the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum about a troublesome “concrete truth.” What was that?
The truth, Littell said, was that “six million Jews were targeted and systematically murdered in the heart of Christendom, by baptized Roman Catholics, Protestants, and Eastern Orthodox who were never rebuked, let alone excommunicated.” One voice, however, did consistently speak out about clergy involvement with Hitler’s regime. And the voice, as we have seen, was that of Jehovah’s Witnesses.Holocaust was the state-sponsored, systematic persecution and annihilation of European Jewry by Nazi Germany and its collaborators between 1933 and 1945.” Jews were the primary victims, but the State policy also sought to eliminate Roma and Sinti (two gypsy tribes), the disabled, Poles, Soviet prisoners of war, homosexuals, Jehovah’s Witnesses, and political dissidents. ”

start>>>Excerpt borrowed from Wikipedia:
“In 1947, the British government announced it would withdraw from the Mandate of Palestine, stating it was unable to arrive at a solution acceptable to both Arabs and Jews.[68] The newly created United Nations approved the Partition Plan for Palestine (United Nations General Assembly Resolution 181) on November 29, 1947, which sought to divide the country into two states—one Arab and one Jewish. Jerusalem was designated to be an international city—a corpus separatum—administered by the UN.[69] The Jewish community accepted the plan,[70] but the Arab League and Arab Higher Committee of Palestine rejected it.[71] On December 1, 1947, the Arab Higher Committee proclaimed a three-day strike, and Arab bands began attacking Jewish targets.[72] The Jews were initially on the defensive as civil war broke out, but they gradually moved onto the offensive.[73] The Palestinian Arab economy collapsed and 250,000 Palestinian-Arabs fled or were expelled.[74] David Ben-Gurion proclaiming Israeli independence on May 14, 1948, below a portrait of Theodor Herzl
On May 14, 1948, the day before the expiration of the British Mandate, the Jewish Agency proclaimed independence, naming the country Israel.[75] The following day, the armies of four Arab countries —Egypt, Syria, Lebanon and Iraq — attacked Israel, launching the 1948 Arab–Israeli War;[76][77] Saudi Arabia sent a military contingent to operate under Egyptian command; Yemen declared war but did not take military action.[78] After a year of fighting, a ceasefire was declared and temporary borders, known as the Green Line, were established.[79] Jordan annexed what became known as the West Bank and East Jerusalem, and Egypt took control of the Gaza Strip. Over 700,000 Palestinians were expelled or fled from Israel during the conflict. Israel was accepted as a member of the United Nations by majority vote on May 11, 1949.[80] In the early years of the state, the Labor Zionist movement led by Prime Minister David Ben-Gurion dominated Israeli politics.[81][82] These years were marked by an influx of Holocaust survivors and Jews from Arab lands, many of whom faced persecution in and expulsion from their original countries.[83] Consequently, the population of Israel rose from 800,000 to two million between 1948 and 1958.[84] Some arrived as refugees with no possessions and were housed in temporary camps known as ma’abarot; by 1952, over 200,000 immigrants were living in these tent cities.[85] The need to solve the crisis led Ben-Gurion to sign a reparations agreement with West Germany that triggered mass protests by Jews angered at the idea that Israel could accept monetary compensation for the Holocaust.[86] In the 1950s, Israel was frequently attacked by Palestinian fedayeen, mainly from the Egyptian-occupied Gaza Strip.[87] In 1950 Egypt closed the Suez Canal to Israel. There was mounting tension and a number of armed clashes took place along all of Israel’s borders. In 1956, Israel joined a secret alliance with Great Britain and France aimed at regaining control of the Suez Canal, which the Egyptians had nationalized (see the Suez Crisis). Israel overran the Sinai Peninsula but was soon pressured to withdraw by the United Nations in return for guarantees of Israeli shipping rights in the Red Sea and the Canal.[88][89]In the early 1960s, Israel captured Nazi war criminal Adolf Eichmann in Argentina and brought him to back to Israel for trial.[90] The trial had a major impact on public awareness of the Holocaust,[91] but Eichmann remains the only person ever to be executed by order of an Israeli court.[92]”

Worshipping at the Altar of Selfishness and Hatred
But the GREATEST of these is Love; embedded attributes of human emotions gone awry
Written and Edited By John R. Hernandez, Jr. 7/11 http://www.newdawnmedia.wordpress.com http://www.newdawncommnuications.blogspot.com
Hate forces us to discard the unwanted; too lazy walk down to the Goodwill or Salvation Army Box, to offer it to our neighbors or the strangers down the road, no, it’s much easier to just throw it all away; so no one can get to it. This is how we treat our relationships; we use them and we squeeze them, till they can’t take it no more or until we’re sick and tired; and then we dump them out into the streets for someone else to pick them up and do worst things to them. Repeating the circle of hate over and over again. We love our children or so we pretend, until no one is around and then we light the cigarette, we pop the beer bottle open and kick back on the couch to watch the latest sports channel or soap opera ignoring, their solitude and pain. We plan and scheme our way out of everything; too sick to make it to church for the sixth time in a row, to tired to look in on the elderly neighbor, to arrogant to pitch in and help with the dishes; or show someone the affection they so desperately need and deserve. Blindly following the norms dictated to us by a pretentious and shallow consumer society; our nails must be done exactly like they do it in that fashion mag, our suits must be tailored to the right fit we see in the fashion shows, how we talk and how we walk, who we choose as friends and who we choose to ignore; what school we attend, the latest tattoo, the latest fad. After all it tells them who we are on the outside. But, is that really who we are on the inside? Behind it all; lay the simmering embers of a burning anger, an incomplete desire to want to let go; a compulsion to attain, to get more, to be the best, to stand above the crowd, to give ground to no one; to nurture and feed the hate!

In Support of Non-Custodial Fathers!!! God Bless All of You and Happy Fourth of July 2011!!!
by John R Hernandez on Monday, July 4, 2011 at 6:39pm
To All CRFN Members,
In reply to the rhetoric that went for supporting the rights of fathers.
It would of been a better message if it would have included the guarantee that one day Non-Custodial Fathers will get all the rights they deserve -which- for far too long have been denied to them by the oppressive practice of Parental Alienation; both from custodial parents -as well as- under the Corrupt American Family Court System! But, that’s right-yeh- Non-Custodial Fathers don’t have big pockets; since the majority of them are paying through the ying-yang -to warrant- any support from today’s so-called crusaders for family…!

Remember Your First Love; Whose God is he?
By John R. Hernandez, Jr. 6/11 © http://www.newdawnmedia.wordpress.com http://www.newdawncommunications.blogspot.com
As I look around this world I see so much hatred, scoffing, and apathy. People living one way on church day and another the rest of the week. I see parents spending little time with their children when they should be there to help them with their homework; making sure it gets done right the first time. Helping them to become productive citizens. Helping them to learn to play and instrument or become better linguists. I see children ignoring the needs of their parents now that they are grown and on their own. Because, the parents that helped to raise them are way too easily abandoned and caged in private care facilities; forgotten to their eyes. I hear the cries of those who live in homeless shelters with no hope; but, to just get through another night in what seems more like a living hell to them. I see warriors come back home broken and crippled, living desperate lives, shunned from the public eye and left to wallow in the muck and mire of confusion and pain. I see the eyes of mothers abandoned, forced to seek out an existence; when we should be there. We turn our faces and walk away. How much pain and terror must we face before our hearts break from the suffering and torment of this human family? We are called to recognize and comfort the afflicted, the aggrieved, those who suffer persecution and those who as a result natural phenomenon or as a result of human interaction; human failure, or mechanical error are heart broken. Inadvertent, accidents happen all the time. But, when we as a church; as those called out by Almighty God to come together and pray for those in the congregation, to admonish (to rebuke, to educate the flock in God’s way’s, to instruct, to edify, to lift up, to feed the hungry, to open the eyes of those blindly living their lives..). It is because of these, that his great love is poured out unto us as a congregation and those we send out. That is our great commission, our first love, as brothers and sisters in faith. But, when we begin to go out on our own and put God sort of in a box and sit ourselves up high and pretend we are in control. This is a great mistake! That many churches make. When Christ speaks to the church at Ephesus he castigates it for its failure to recognize who is in control and the reason why they took the oath of Faith. And the admonition goes to all congregants; because it may sound strange to you but all of us in the body are stewards of that body and partakers of the responsibility to edify and to rebuke as necessary each and every member –regardless- of position or tile. Whenever we ignore the needs of those less fortunate we ignore the love of God. Whenever, we pretend the poor around us don’t exist, we deny the love of God exists. Whenever we fail to offer a helping hand to someone we otherwise would rather not bother with, we act as if the love of God didn’t exist in us. This is what Christ is saying to Ephesus, you have lost your first love. Often times we replace that Love we the love for fornication, for alcohol, for gambling, for money, for everything that our weak and helpless flesh wrongfully allows. “Don’t forget” Jesus says to us! And remember that if Jesus be with us who can be against us! For we are more than conquerors in Christ who strengthens us. There are some that are called to comfort and instruct, others to edify and build, some to be disciples, others deacons, some to the mission fields of life; But all of us are called equally for one purpose as was Ephesus. To bring the love and joy of our faith and our way of life to those whose lives have been shattered; to help free the captives (addicted), bring site to the blind (in faith) and to proclaim the coming day of our Lord and Savior (His return to Rule and to Judge). Some people treat God as if he was one of their buddies. Like the friend at work, or the one they hunt with or just anybody. Some people fail to recognize who they are addressing. Who they are talking to and before whose presence they stand. The biggest mistake the church at Ephesus made and the main reason Christ himself had to have a face to face with them was and is because they began to take God for granted! Of course we all have read the Bible; we all know by the countless examples of fire and brimstone God raising his hand and slaughtering Israel’s enemies by the millions. And we also have first and second hand accounts of the times Almighty God had to step in and rebuke sinners. He even tearfully at times after long lamentations and great callings; had to punish and even exterminate many Jews. Convicting them of worshipping idols; of not following his rules of engagement, of becoming haughty and arrogant and -oh yes- for that seemingly innocent offense of taking him for granted. We are not forced to be perfect but we are asked to cleanse our minds, wash our garments clean; in order that we may present ourselves a just and perfect sacrifice. Go out into the world and make disciples of men. Why? Because, we live in a lost and dying world. Behold I stand and knock, if anyone should listen and open unto me I will come in and sit with him and fellowship with him or her or them and teach them my ways. I am the way the truth and the life; no one come to the father but through me. He who believes in me I will give him to drink from the rivers of living water. For the day will come that you will not worship in flesh but in spirit and in truth; and he will wipe away every tear from their eyes, and take away all of their sorrows and be their God.
Have a Blessed Day!

In Support of Civil Rights for All Non-Custodial Fathers
Preamble to the US Constitution; We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defence, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America.
Universal DECLARATION OF Human Rights “Everyone has the right to freedom of opinion and expression; this right includes freedom to hold opinions without interference and to seek, receive and impart information and ideas through any media and regardless of frontiers.”
Today freedom of speech, or the freedom of expression, is recognized in international and regional human rights law. The right is enshrined in Article 19 of the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights, Article 10 of the European Convention on Human Rights, Article 13 of the American Convention on Human Rights and Article 9 of the African Charter on Human and Peoples’ Rights.[8] Based on John Milton‘s arguments, freedom of speech is understood as a multi-faceted right that includes not only the right to express, or disseminate, information and ideas, but three further distinct aspects: • the right to seek information and ideas; • the right to receive information and ideas; • the right to impart information and ideas.[8]

The Oppression of Parental Alienation and the Negatively Biased Anti-Fatherhood Family Court System are the Reasons Why Some Men Just Give Up!
By John R. Hernandez, Jr. 7/11 (c) http://www.newdawnmedia.wordpress.com http://www.newdawncommunications.blogspot.com
“First they threw out prayer in schools along with the bible, then they threw out the pledge of allegiance, then they came for our unborn and threw them into waste receptacles like yesterday’s garbage, then they created a massive bureaucratic family court system -which- singlehandedly guarantees to all states and to all women a nice fat check for every man they file a lawsuit of child support on; ultimately helping to place the final wedge between fathers and their children”
John R Hernandez, Jr.
Those who know of me know how much I love my children and they sure dang know what hell I have been put through by the system and the two mothers of my children. We are all human beings and we all make mistakes. I’ve made mine; God knows I made two big mistakes with those two. But, I have never brought shame or hurt to any one of them or to their door. I have walked away, lived my life and left people alone to sort out their own misery and mistakes. I have paid dearly for only wanting one thing. To have what every decent sane man should dream of and want. God knows I try to be a good Christian as far as patience will allow. I did my best with my oldest child, though she grew up in a single family home; I spent most of my time there playing with her, taking her to the park, the zoo, the amusement parks, and the sea shore; in effect I was there and I saw her grow up and shared greatly in her life. Her mother never pushed me away or alienated me from her. And she made every effort to come with her and visit and if I wasn’t there I knew there would be a note on my door letting me know she came by. I would have to say we had a good relationship. Because, I allowed it to be for 15 years of Katie’s life. I was there! I contributed what I could. I paid my support and still spent out of the other pocket on my daughter and if the mother needed something I did my best to get it for her. Even though I knew deep inside I had been railroaded by the family court system. I tried to live a clean life and made sure to never let my daughter see me with another woman. So she would never have to hear the words “your dad is a woman chaser”. I wanted her to remember me in a good way as a good father, a good example in her life. Just as I remember days like this one. It was after working the all night shift I went over to her and her mom’s home. I’d fallen asleep on the couch for an hour or so it was about 8: am and I jumped up. Because, this was her first day of kindergarten and I knew I had to be there. Her mother and I walked her to the school bus stop. I helped her get on the bus, and just as she got to the top of the stairs on that bus she did a 160 degree circle and said to me, “Wrong bus!” My heart fell somewhere between my stomach I know not where. It was all I could do to hold the lump in my throat and I said, “No baby this is the right bus, here let me introduce you to your new bus friend” and she said hello to the other girl sitting there by herself and sat next to her and they smiled at each other. I said, “Bye-bye I’ll see you later baby”. The bus rolled on down the road as I held the tears as best I could. Her mom smiled and we walked away with another precious memory of our little girl’s first experience on her first day of Kindergarten. After that first day at school I would take her to school or her mom would. And we both would go visit and let her know we loved her and wanted to be near her; as she learned to get used to school life. I used to love to buy her things with what little I had. I remember she would love to model for me and I would encourage her. I got a picture of her modeling for me where she looked like both Little Bo Beep and Shirley Temple in it. I remember when I ordered the cardboard doll house for her. I thought to myself it wasn’t wood but she might like it just the same cause somewhere I saw a part of me in her. Well, the day came and I brought the package over to her and we both put it together. She was tickled pink! She loved her doll house even though it was cardboard. It still meant the world to her and she had many months and years of fun with it and all the toys. I and her mother and grandmother got for her to go along with her special doll house. Another memory was that I used to love taking her to buy toys and things and take drives and one day while on a toy drive I stopped at Kay-Bee Toys at the Mall. Well, we walked around that store for what seemed like hours me pushing the cart around those aisles of toys and more toys. The cart was full and I stopped by the end of one aisle and had a word with her. It went like this, “Now hon you know we can’t afford all these things so why don’t we pick out a few things we like the most and let’s get out of here” And she said, “Okay daddy” and I followed her as she led me back all around and she would take things out of her cart and putting them back on the shelves. When we finally got to the counter a young woman asked, “Will that be all?” And out of nowhere Katie pulled a sock full of change out of her little pocketbook and swung it on the counter and asked the cashier, “Will this be enough?” It was one of those many moments again when my heart fell back between my stomach somewhere as the lump in my throat grew heavy. One of these days I’ll try and post some of the pictures of Katie and I back When we Were Us.
An Informed Decision Based on the Facts and Not One Skewed by Bias Makes for a Better Argument: A Rebuttal to the President’s Father’s Day Message and My Suggestions
By John R. Hernandez, Jr. 6/11 © http://www.newdawnmedia,wordpress.com http://www.newdawncommunications.blogspot.com
Our US Constitution Guarantees us the Right to Speak Out Mr. President; you need to get the facts straight before you speak out on a subject you obviously know little about. I mean you know about raising your children and it’s obvious we both come from single parent homes. But I have look at my father and his gift of life to me as a sacred one. Yes, you know how to be -as you put it- a good father to your children. But, you have no idea why some men cannot be in their father’s lives. That is an issue that must be taken on a case- by- case- basis. Once all the facts are gathered then you can make informed statements-based- on the information before you –about- certain groups or members of certain groups -in this case- fathers. The generalized statement that fathers may be bad because they are absent from their children’s lives is a blank statement to deter attention from the real facts that need your further attention. Who is it that you don’t want to rock their boat? Sometimes in leadership one has to rock someone’s boat to get them to take a close look at their actions and practices and see if they need to be changed based on the facts presented. To insinuate that men that are absent from their children’s lives are “bad men” is an insult to people you have no facts about. If a man is not in his children’s lives it can only be for three reasons. He can’t be, he doesn’t want to be or he is being alienated from his children. But to make rash statements without first knowing the real facts of a situation is to put a further wedge between men -that you have no factual knowledge about- and a society who for far too long has been made to think that non-custodial fathers or absent fathers have done something wrond. And then you ask men to step up and be good fathers as if a man that is not in his child’s life is a bad man -without knowing- the facts of the case. I don’t know of any man that in his heart does not love his child. But, to make rash statements without facts is to malign people you don’t know anything about. First, investigate the situation before you open you jump to conclusions or to offer solutions. First, get some information on -Parental Alienation- which some parents but, mostly non-custodial fathers -in particular- have had to be subjected to. Because, it’s one of the main reasons –many- fathers cannot be in their children’s lives. Parental alienation doesn’t just have to come from the mother, it can come from any authority figure in that child’s life-that is suppressing- a fathers ability to spend time with that child. Go to-angiemedia.com- and get the facts before you make a statement that will appear as a broad or general judgment on people you don’t know. Go to -parentalrights.org- and get the facts. Millions of men out there deal with issues concerning Visitation, Equal Parenting, Joint Custody and many others with the mothers of their children. Some men are subjected to situations when dealing with their ex’s that exhibit patterns of anti -social behavior and which have been clinically associated to symptoms of Parental Alienation. Many men every day are trying to get the word out that this nation’s family court system needs to be reformed. It needs a broader look into it’s practices towards non-custodial fathers. Many men out there are suffering day by day the emotional stress of being alienated from their children, they are helpless. Because, the the majority of the courts ignore their issues. Directly suppressing them from having the kind of relationship they need and want to have with their children. There are many valid organizations out there that are speaking out against -a disease- that is way too prevalent -today- within the realm of father’s and children’s relationships. Some of these organizations are championing causes like family court reform and equal parenting. But I believe they need to go a step further and fight for stricter accountability of funds men must pay to the custodial parent in order to get a better picture of where the money is going, and I believe also that a routine drug test(within reason of course) should be implemented to all if not most custodial parents -in most if not all- cases. Along with the creation of a system to help parents deal with their visitation and custody matters without the need to deride or ridicule men in family courts! I believe in order to make informed decisions that pretend to support the best interest of children one needs to get the facts before generalizing men’s characters! Offering a pass to a zoo or a ticket to an amusement park falls short of helping to deal with the major problems facing men and women today when it comes to their children. When for far too many the problem has been shown to be -alienation and the oppression- inflicted upon them by a rouge family court system. Men are not bad fathers because they are not spending time with their children; when there are cases out there totally the opposite of what you may have in mind. My concern for -the past 30 years- has been to find someone, who will listen, -someone- with an open intellect and not one whose priorities are skewed -clouded -by biased decisions others have or may have impressed upon that individual. I wanted to find someone that would make the right decisions on the issues both parents are facing without having to make them based on some of the facts or not all of the facts presented. And certainly I did not want to find someone whose ideals and values where colored by the ideals and values of those around him or her. Who, obviously are not acting in the best interest of resolving the issue before them based on the weight of the facts and preponderance of the evidence set presented. To make decisions that affect the lives of millions of children and their fathers –simply- because you want to appease those under you is the opposite of what I was looking for. I wanted someone who was willing to stand up above the crowd and rule justly and righteously and with reason.
I wanted someone that would stand -separate and apart- and make decisions based on the facts and not to just tow the line and follow the rest of the crowd he belongs to. A president or general or king must not let those around him sway his decisions. This is the way he will show to the people that he is a -just and fair leader- who is willing to act in the best interest of the people. And not the special interests of a particular court or organization or people whose facts are skewed and biased.
Excerpt from,
“The Demonization of Fatherhood and Alienation from Parenting; One Fathers Struggle to Change a Broken System”
By John R. Hernandez, Jr. © 2008
I felt blessed to be able to be there in the early years of Katie’s life; when she first stepped unto her school bus; being able to visit her at kindergarten and see the look in her eyes as she proudly danced around I’ll never forget the joy of sharing her smile, so proud to have her daddy by her side. I remember working three jobs just trying to make ends meet as a visiting part time daddy. Thankful that her mom was not so vindictive after suing me for child support to not alienate me from her. It hurt that my name was not on her school papers or on her birth certificate. That I was just some non-custodial father struggling to turn his life around, shunned by those around me. It tortured me knowing we would never be a real family; you know that type where both parents live together happily ever after. I remember the church chorus singing a lovely hymn and suddenly she just started singing, “Old McDonald had a farm…” The days we would spend at the zoo, by the river, chasing the amusement parks, down the shore or just visiting with her. That first Christmas tree and how she got all wound up around the tree ornaments and that look on her face when I told her she couldn’t see her toys till Christmas day. I remember how she would model for me all the pretty dresses I would get for her; all the surprises she would have for me waiting whenever I would visit; how she would have her pet gerbil do tricks for me and the day at the toy store as I asked the cashier how much was the toys I was about to buy her and how Katie popped out a sock full of change and asked, “Is this enough?”
And that’s my Father’s DAY Message!!

Faith and Values; If You Believe, One Single Tear
The Miracle of Golgotha Hill; One Single Tear
By John R. Hernandez, Jr. 6/11 © http://www.newdawnmedia.wordpress.com http://www.newdawncommunications.blogspot.com
It was difficult for a poor child to grow up in such conditions, blind in one eye, after being beaten by street peddlers; he’d walked with a limp since birth. The others shunned him, they laughed at him and made jokes; He often could be seen begging by the peddler’s stands. Unable to walk fast or far he drew his sustenance from what was thrown out at the end of the day. This day he’d hurried home to his mom who was a sickly older woman. Whose husband had died trying to keep the Roman vandals from destroying what was left of the altar of God during the fire at the Temple. That night he found his mother dead and being an only son he knew he was now truly alone in the world. He sat by her side, for hours, staring into her eyes; asking why? He’d heard of a man carpenter named Jesus who healed the sick and brought sight to the blind and raised the dead; he wondered if this Jesus could bring his mother back? Could he do what they all say? Would he heal me too? I am sick and alone now and so hungry and my father and mom are gone. And I’d brought her these things so she could eat and get strong. Why God Jehovah have you done this to me, he cried? Suddenly, the Roman soldiers horses could be heard rushing through the square above the hill called Golgotha, the crowds were restless, and screams and the sounds of whipping could be heard inside his little hut of straw, where the little beggar boy sat besides his mothers bed. He heard someone call out to him from a distance a voice he thought he knew, calling to him saying, “If you believe that Jesus is my Son with all your heart and all your soul and all your mind then you will be saved.” Silence returned for a moment as he trembled in fear. But, there again the noise in the streets grew stronger as the procession hurried by. The cries from the streets grew louder and the crowd grew in numbers. He could hear the horses hoofs and the crackling of whips, then he laid his head by his mothers side and feel asleep. It was the middle of the afternoon and he awoke, he nudged his mother and placed her things beside her side, he pulled her covers tighter as he kissed her cheeks. He remembered having a dream and being called from a distance and he knew he had to find out why. Outside it was dark and the sun was not shining down unto the streets as he made his way up to Golgotha Hill. As he approached he saw a crowd of soldiers laying on the ground holding their faces, and some women crying and praising God. And as he looked up he saw a wooden cross before him and a man hung there, his head bowed down, nails piercing his hands and feet and blood oozing down. He saw the scars the soldiers inflicted upon him and he remembered the dream and the face of that man he thought he’d known who hung there suspended between earth and heaven. It was Jesus and he slowly began to open his eyes, and he looked at the little crippled boy standing there with tears in his eyes and just as he took his last breath he looked at the little boy and smiled at him and a tear pierced his eye lids. And the little boy stretched out his hands and Christ’s tears touched his hands and the little boy fell to his feet and the women weeping came to him and picked him up and he stood up straight and he wanted to cry from the joy of disbelief and the miracle of saving faith. He wanted to climb that cross and bring Jesus down. Because, somehow he knew that, that man up on that cross had answered his prayers. He’d answered his hopes and dreams all at once, with one single tear. And just as he started to climb that cross, he heard a voice from the distance saying, My child, you get down from there, as he slipped and fell backwards, he turned and looked back down the hill. And there through the darkness and the strange fog he saw the image of his mother running up Golgotha Hill, calling out to him.

“If I Could Believe?”
By John R. Hernandez, Jr. 6/11 (c) http://www.newdawnmedia.wordpress.com http://www.newdawncommunications.blogspot.com
If I could believe in that look in your eyes, once again, like I’ve done so many times before. Like when you walked in and out that door; like when you said, “I am Sorry I Hurt You baby”. Like when you swore you’d never do it again just as I gave back in. Like when you touched me and held me close or when you’d call in the middle of the night crying your heart out. Pretending you meant every word you’d swear to me. If only I could believe?
My new book can be found at Smashwords.com with a 50% discount BP52H . Your contributions and purchases help to support my efforts to continue to bring you not just only the finest poetry but so much more.

In My Opinion Unions Should Invest In All Unemployed Americans; After All Isn’t That What The Word “LABOR” Stands For?
By John R Hernandez, Jr. http://www.newdawnmedia.wordpress.com http://www.newdawncommunications.blogspot.com
Why don’t the Unions take that _Ten Billion_ they are planning to invest in retrofitting some commercial buildings and use it to help get people back to work? Not just the Union workers but those who have lost their jobs in semi and unskilled non-union positions!!!!!!! How much of that Ten Billion Union Dues money is going to help break the strangle hold of poverty on this nation? How much of that Ten Billion is going to go for job training of high school drop outs? How much of that Ten Billion is going to go to help get the non-union American Worker back on his feet and help to put food on his families’ table or help pay for his health care or pay the rent? I support the Unions but I don’t support the arrogant use of Union Due’s Money to help the few while there are millions of unemployed Americans out there that need help. Why don’t they take some of that money and use it to make sure that all US Companies are utilizing the best practices to help hire all unemployed Americans and not utilizing Federal Job Creation Credits to hire only members of groups that are labeled “Poverty Affected Individuals”. In my opinion the Long Term Unemployed are Poverty Affected Individuals -therefore- Unions and the Federal Government should be making sure that the Workforce Initiatives Programs includes all American workers -within their guidelines- and rules and not just a few. Read more about this by going to the petition page below -and signing this petition- to help get all long term unemployed Americans back to work now! Why should Daddy and or Mommy have to go home again and again and tell their child, “No honey the plant down the road said they are not doing any hiring today”?
BELOW ARE COMMENTS I HAVE MADE ON FACEBOOK AND OTHER PLACES ABOUT ISSUES…
ON THE ANTHONY CASE DECISION
Brittany you are right 110% for feeling angry over what appears to be an egregious distortion of justice -for this child- of God whose life was taken at such an early age and who won’t get to run around and smile -ever again- like other children -will- the rest of their earthly lives. God is a loving and forgiving God, but God also says that even if you look with hate at your brethren -that- you have committed murder. God’s aim is that we learn to get along, to tow the line and not kill ourselves over petty issues; when there is so much to do right here in his kingdom. Just so you know; this child’s life was not a petty issue and neither were the 30 million aborted children’s lives. But, we as humans are admonished to look into our own souls to seek out our own iniquities and mistakes and wrongs against one another and then even against our own flesh and ask ourselves, “Are we able to forgive as he forgave?” Who do we blame when we look at the tragic epidemic of teenage suicide across this nation and the world. When I look at it from the legal point of view I look at facts presented, but when I look at it with God’s eyes it may often lead to opposite directions -just because- His- authority is absolute. Learn to temper your pain with the facts that nothing escapes the hand of Almighty God -not even- in this case; his will be done even when we may not agree with God’s outcome. But know this that hate and injustice all pay the price in time in God’s eyes.
ON THE JOURNALIST WHO OUTTED HIMSELF THAT HE IS AN ILLEGAL ALIEN
He has been impersonating a citizen. Other people that come here to be citizens go through a lot of hard work to get to be citizens. To allow him to stay is to say that we in the Journalism Field – don’t have any- professional standards!!! This man violated all ethical standards when circumvented all legal avenues for the glorification of doing what he likes. He and all others like him need to be made to know that the law is the law. What if he stood up and said that he was a spy or terrorist? When someone crawls under the ground to get into the USA- it’s one thing- and when someone lies his way into a job by faking his -citizenship- in my opinion it should be a worst CRIME!! Because, it’s called fraud! Journalism like any other profession should be held to the same standards. Lying about certain things to get a job is one thing. People lie all the time to get a job, to get a date, to get a loan, etc.,.. But lying about your citizenship and how you got into this country takes lying to a much higher level! There’s a lot more to be said about this issue.
MY THOUGHTS ON INDIGENOUS AMERICANS
I have deep love for American indigenous people and in fact for all worldwide indigenous peoples. I believe what America did to the indigenous populations is wrong, but I know that some reparations have been made and the billions pumped into these communities prove this. I don’t agree with how some Indian Reservations Casino’s are run and the way many indigenous peoples are forced to live. Somehow my mind tells me there is some misbalance there that needs to be scrutinized further. I believe further that as nations and peoples begin to outgrow and become assimilated into a society -it becomes- the responsibility of that specific society of elders and leaders to do what is in the best interest of that individual segment of the population -of- that nation or country. You can’t turn around 200 hundred years later and plead ignorance when your asked what have you done to help your community evolve from that era to this era?
ON IMMIGRATION ISSUES
What gets me is how some people after being here for 20 or more years and getting to be extremely successful can have the audacity to stand up and say. “yeh well they brought me here when I was a child so what; I still have not applied for citizenship- because- I have questions about this country -I don’t like- or agree with- so- I prefer to not file?” Millions of illegal aliens live with no intentions whatsoever of ever becoming legal residents. Many are very wealthy and much of what they make goes back over there to fuel that economy instead of this one. Despicable! Brutal Rape and Murder!! This should be a No Brainer for the jury!! But, I have seen people walk for worst than this. Look at the outcome of the Anthony Trial! Our criminal justice system is irreparably flawed. Money and public opinion have a scary way of skewing the outcome of jury trials.
IMMIGRATION ISSUES CONTINUED;
In case you hadn’t noticed Bryan I am Latino, I know firsthand what hatred and injustice is all about as well I am sure as anyone who comes to this nation to make a better life. But I don’t agree that people should crash their way into this nation and get the benefits that other real citizens who have worked hard all their lives should get. But, there is a difference between us and them; and that difference is that we are certified legal citizens and they are not. I am not against people applying for citizenship -the legal way- and I do believe that more needs to be done to reform the immigration laws to expand and include those who wish to come here and become citizens and productive members of this society. As for how long I have been watching -I can only tell you- that I have been watching and learning all my life. And before you start telling me about your citizenship let me inform you that many of the folks we are talking about here; are the children and grandchildren of the folks that we Americans stole not only their lands from but their dignity from. You remember American History I and II?
ON ABORTION AND CHILDHOOD DECEASES
Like an unborn child being torn apart by the hands of hatred so the lives of our most fragile senior’s hearts are torn apart from the torment of abandonment. How could there be such little love in a world spawned from love?
Lord don’t ever let me turn my face from all the pain and suffering in the world; I want to never forget the look in your eyes when you saw your baby boy hanging on that cross….JRH.
Tonight while we are enjoying the pleasures of our lusts; someone out there will be praying and crying for the ones eating out of dumpsters across this nation and the world!
Thanking you could never diminish the prolonged pain of compassion; nevertheless if I did not thank you; only the echoes of my cries would be heard from inside…JRH711ndmh!
On learning to loose unnecessary weight:
I usually charge thousands for my advice but for you right here a trinket worth much more…..slow yourself down…breathe and push away the stress….take a look inside and with every day that passes by; develop your own way of controlling compulsive behaviors; the by-products of interactions and reactions to the world around you….!
Thanking you could never diminish the prolonged pain of compassion; nevertheless if I did not thank you; only the echoes of my cries would be heard from inside…JRH711ndmh!

“Saturday”
Written and Edited by John R. Hernandez, Jr. http://www.newdawnmedia.wordpress.com http://www.newdawncommunications.com
My Saturday is to wake up early to listen to the dogs barking at prowlers maybe other cats or rabbits that wander in the early day past them and they don’t like intruders in their space…I begin to think about life, about tomorrow, about living….I listen to the sermons from the pastors Adrian Rogers, David Jeremiah, Robi Zechariahs and others I love; as I think about things and read what I can on the net…as the day progresses I take a look outside I bring some water to the pepper plants and the oregano plant and the others I check up on…then I see a butterfly as I admire the sunflowers parching in the early sun she is whittling on top of the sunflower doing her work while dragonflies and bees and other flying insects try to bother her; she is patient at her job and I run to get the camera to capture this moment. But, I have only two pictures left in the camera and the wind and I cannot get to make up which one will win this tug of war as the wonder of it all unfolds and if it will come out okay as I snap the trigger and pause and listen as the camera makes its return to empty; automatically re-rolling the film inside I walk away as the sound of an airplane too far up in the sky to see flies by. I wonder why some here never plant anything, they live without seeing or feeling nature close to their hearts like it all is so taken for granted; so plain to them so last night’s television movie or program; so what the taste of the dinner left in their minds, so like how hard it is to change the way they are; the way so like what they believe life has made of them.

Hoarding is Alive and Well in Today’s Corporate World
By John R. Hernandez, Jr. © 7/2011 http://www.newdawnmedia.wordpress.com http://www.newdawncommnucations.blogspot.com
With the latest July-2011 -jobs update- spelling doom and gloom for the 15 million and more unemployed; Corporate America has just fired another salvo at the US Labor Department by sending thousands more back out unto the unemployment lines.
Can you be defined as; an older American, handicapped, poor and Latino or Black or any number of other persons -who fall- or have fallen- below the poverty line; an ex-felon or someone with a criminal record, or just simply a member of the displaced long-term unemployed? If you said “yes” to any or a combination of any of the above, your chances of finding and securing a job are miserably minute. Why? As in Hitler’s era “undesirables” where those type-cast as a dispensable/expendable and as it reads on dictionary.reference.com the definition for dispensable is “–adjective 1. capable of being dispensed with or done without; not necessary or essential. 2.) capable of being dispensed or administered.” It has come to my attention that hoarding did not go out with the last Neanderthal Ice Age or neither has it’s popularity been diminished by the “Hoarders” show over satellite networks. No, my friends- the practice of hoarding is still alive and well across the globe. But, in my opinion the most hideous of places Hoarding is alive and growing is in Corporate America, –as-well-as-anywhere the possibility of a job will exchange hands between an employer or its agents and any possible prospect. Today, employers and their agents hoard jobs!! The reasons why they do this despicable act or acts is for the same reasons a child hoards candy or toys or anything near them. Hoarding is another way of exercising one’s power around their subordinates or peers. One barters this power by way of exchanging favors such as for admiration, status imaging, prowess, click building and maintenance as well as keeping out certain members of societal groups, etc.,,,! In some circles hoarding is big business and profitable for certain members of a specific race. Take for example; why are so many firemen and police “public servants” in the upper US East Coast members of a specific ethnic group? When one looks at the statistics one -like me- walks away scratching his head. Even in the face of all the laws that say that this should not be happening it is -right before- our eyes. That is hoarding! There are well over 15 million Americans today unemployed and –because- I have brought this issue up -I will be demonized. Not for speaking the truth –but- for not keeping my mouth shut and simply finding some –whole- somewhere unheard and unseen. Going against the grain has its pitfalls -in this society- and some have been buried like out in the middle of some landfill. Never the less, hoarding will continue unabated in Corporate America -until- those behind the walls of the US Labor Department decide to get up off their over- paid tushes and do something about it.
Your tireless unpaid Societal Servant,

OVERVIEW OF MY PETITION ON CHANGE.ORG
By John R. Hernandez, Jr. © 2011-NDMH
Get America Working Again With My New Nationwide Program
My new program is important because nothing is getting done to help get a greater number of the 15 to 20 million people back to work. Corporations have become very skilled at figuring out ways to get more done with less. Because of the lucrative rewards of Workforce Initiatives via Job Credits; many companies have adopted unspoken rules and practices of separating the hiring pool and favoring TANF recipients and those on public assistance over others who are searching for work but don’t meet the Workforce Guidelines. By limiting the workforce to a certain segment of the population; this would benefit many corporations scavenging for job credits which I feel is borderline discrimination. Furthermore, this only helps to isolate available individuals seeking employment and forces them back to the unemployment lines. The states are doing very little to help get the long term unemployed back to work when they are not scrutinizing the process of hiring. Fifteen Million unemployed tells me there is something wrong here that needs to get fixed quick and forcing capable people back out on the streets while favoring others because that helps to line your pockets, is shameful and unfair. Outsourcing jobs has practically destroyed the semi skilled to skilled positions out there, while streamlining work details has affected the overall total makeup of most companies. Farming out -hiring processes- to temporary staffing agencies in order to transfer most of the payroll and general benefit responsibilities; tells me that corporations are still up to their old tricks. They are battening down the hatches and turning the American Workforce into another disposable commodity! In a society where more and more pressure is being placed on the few members of the workforce not affected by permanent layoffs or cut backs.
THE NUTS AND BOLTS OF MY NEW NATIONWIDE PROGRAM:
A Petition in Support of a Two Part Referendum:
PART I: To Make States Accountable to Create Jobs Based on their Number of Unemployed Individuals Residents.
PART II: In Order to Restore Our Economic Engine and Thereby Restore the Lives of 15 Million or More Unemployed Americans. This Referendum Must Require Provisions for the Following to be Included as Guarantees to Insure the Success of this Effort.
By John R. Hernandez, Jr. © 6/11 http://www.newdawncommunications.blogspot.com http://www.newdawnmedia.wordpress.com
Statement of Provisions:
When have you heard the feds going after any state because they reneged on their mandatory obligations to create an X number of jobs? What if we could (Provision #1) make them create X number of jobs and base that figure on the rate of unemployed individuals? So that now they have a federally mandated obligation to create jobs in their respective states. But wait it gets better! What if this is tied to another (Provision #2) obligation that would require every state department of labor to audit all their agencies within their state to make sure that all the information they provide to prospective job seekers was up to date, guaranteed reliable and that the jobs they sought out for job seekers were qualified jobs that met these guidelines. Which would guarantee a livable wage, not just based on the states minimum wage criteria -but- based on the particular individuals set of circumstances. For example if you have an individual who was making $2,000 per month but lost their job through no fault of their own? Then, the new guidelines would have to say that a formula based on that persons financial obligations to his family, to the roof over his or her head, to children living outside the home; for which he or she is responsible for providing every day subsistence -to be- counted including all his debts to creditors and any payments he or she is obligated to make. (Provision #3) To guarantee that while they are unemployed and for three years after they are reemployed that no court action can be taken against them for any unpaid fines, unpaid court orders, unpaid tax liens, unpaid backed up child support, unpaid student loans obligations, unpaid traffic fines, unpaid property taxes, unpaid obligations to any loans including interest.
This is a mandate; a referendum to see if it will be possible for the American people to get back on their feet without having to look over their backs just when they finally find work. It gives them piece of mind, and just when you thought it couldn’t get any better. Check this out! (Provision #4) A guarantee that if once they do get a job that satisfies all their necessities and they keep that job for a length of three years without interruption and they abide by all the rules of the prescribed agreement; that a percentage of their fines and debt will be forgiven and some of their debt will be forgiven in its entirety. How does this nation or this government expect to help get America back on its feet and productive (recession) again if all it wants to do is bail out the rich and famous and do nothing to bail out the long term unemployed and hurting. People are cash strapped, about to lose their homes and many already have; to hungry lenders. But if we could put a stop to that and guarantee to the American people that we will draw up a plan to help get them back on their feet and it will start with an agreement of -debt forgiveness- if they abide by all the rules of this agreement and in 36 months or so they can be almost or completely debt free. I imagine that, the small loan you may owe your old alma mater disappeared; because, you abided by the agreement that guaranteed you freedom and your transcripts back to go out and continue your blocked education dreams? Imagine all but a portion of your property taxes disappeared -because- you made the right decision and stuck by the plan. Imagine those huge federal student loan debts reduced so drastically you finally know you can breathe again -because- you followed the agreement guidelines. Imagine all debt gone or almost gone because you finally got an agreement that will guaranteed to bail you out, too; just like the big three and the multi-billion dollar financial institutions got? So what do you think? We got to roll up our sleeves and get 15 million people back on their feet -breathing again- and no care in the world for them. No more looking behind their shoulder, no more changing addresses every time the government or the credit card companies or the banks or any debtors come around with garnishment notices and liens? All gone or almost gone! Give us three years of your life, get through our boot camp Agreement Guidelines and soon you will have the freedom to travel, to invest again, to never again be afraid to open up a bank account and start saving again. Imagine, guaranteed job training in the field d of your choice, guaranteed pay while training that meets or exceeds your wildest expectations (rewards incentives for job training) just follow our guidelines that is all we ask. Give us three years of your time and we will get you back on track. After all the big financial institutions got back on track within 18 months as well as the big three! Why can’t we make that promise to the American people? Wait a minute I think I hear a question from the peanut gallery on the right side of the aisle, yes ok what is it? Oh yes your asking how are we gonna pay for this socialist agenda? Hmm?? Let see, hum well one day at a time! This is an investment in the American people and on this nation’s economy. I think the rich corporations would be glad to pitch in, let’s see, oh yes private philanthropists; J. Paul Getty what did you say you’ll chip in a few hundred billion? My goodness I think that just about will cover it! But if there are any other generous benefactors out there, oh yeah, Donald Trump, glad to make your acquaintance; for once you’re investing in the real apprentices! And oh yeah Iraq, Afghanistan, Pakistan Saudi Arabia, Yemen, and all our friends in the Middle East who have enjoyed the benefits of all our gestures of good will –courtesy- of the US Armed Forces; of course will take your check, oh wait a minute better send it to our Pay Pal account, its quicker! Oh and Canada –yes- I forgot about that small issue of Free Trade; sure will take a check, how much $100.00 Billion -no problem- you can send the rest in quarterly installments to the Peoples National Referendum Headquarters C/O to the officer in charge of the accounts to Restore the Jobs and Lives of 15 Million Americans. But wait, you say you can’t do it? Okay, send him to the back of the line! Back to when we were being held hostage by student loans, revolving unemployment lines AND short term jobs, etc.,!

If you made it to the bottom of this document you may want to take another closer look at what I already mentioned above as to the why so many millions of Americans with Land and Home Contract Package Deals for purchase of homes have been completely ignored by everyone up on Capital Hill; during and after all the hearings and hoopla over the mortgage spectacles in the face of this most horrific of recessions. Shameful!!
Our Failure to Help the Less Fortunate Amongst us May be the Saddest Legacy we Leave Behind
Some Factual Data on the Transportation Needs of the Poor and Aging Populations in Rural Areas
Written and Edited by John R. Hernandez, Jr. http://www.newdawnmedia.wordpress.com http://www.newdawncommunications.blogspot.com
Hello everyone, I wanted to thank you all for your help with this petition and I thought I would offer you some scholarly data that might interest you. I have wanted to write about this issue forever! I can remember putting proposals together as far back as some 15 to 20 years ago; that dealt with any social issue I came across. I have been a victim of transportation problems as I am sure some of you have at one time or another, in your life. The only research I did for this petition was the images that have been embedded in my mind throughout the years. The following data -you will find here- I decided to bring it to your attention –because- I have been concerned about the lack of attention or action this petition has been getting; as well as, I have been concerned about the lack of attention my other petitions have been getting. So, last night on the 17th of July I gathered up some factual data. Hoping, that your friends and family and their friends will see the facts as they have been collected. Although as the authors and researchers suggest that, in this extremely large study, “The aim of this study was to understand rural Black and White older adults’ self-reports of transportation difficulty.” The data collected by these statisticians reveals to us that there is a need for free and expanded transportation services that should be provided for the poor in rural areas and especially to those in the aging populations. Below are sample quotes from different investigators which reveal the negative effects of inadequate transportation services on the poor and elderly in rural areas. If you would like to study this subject further I urge you to visit; “http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2758564/ Transportation Difficulty of Black and White Rural Older Adults Nan Sook Park, Ph.D.,ab Lucinda L.

In emergency circumstances,… transportation difficulty can mean the difference between life and death (Gullette, 2006; Parker et al., 2007).” Furthermore, “Rural residents disproportionately experience transportation difficulty because rural areas are sparsely populated and lack public transportation services (Arcury et al., 2005a, 2005b). Rural elders are subject to higher transportation costs than their urban counterparts because walking and public transportation are typically not feasible options, and their trips are likely to be longer (Rosenbloom, 2004).” And, “Although transportation fundamentally influences access to various services and thus affects quality of life, 40% of theU.S.population in rural areas have no public transportation services available, and 25% have insufficient transportation (Glasgow, 2000a). In rural areas without public transportation, taxi services are rare or likely to be prohibitively expensive. Although some senior centers in rural areas provide van transportation, rural elders’ transportation options are typically limited to walking, bicycling, or using a private vehicle.” In Addition to that the authors of these papers suggest that, “The proportion of older persons who live in rural areas (14.7%) is higher than in metropolitan areas (11.9%) and rural older adults have to travel longer distances than urban older adults to access services and activities (Rosenbloom, 2004). Rural older adults tend to be older, have lower economic status, and be in poorer health than urban older adults (Roff & Klemmack, 2003).” My Thanks to all scientists and researchers who worked tirelessly on these projects to help with this issue -as I have- with this petition in my own small way -as well as- all of you who have taken the time to sign it and tell everyone you know; the importance of expanding transportation to the rural poor and elderly populations cannot be overlooked any longer. Can you imagine, when I was a small child I remember walking along dilapidated planks of old wood after the monsoon rains just to keep from slipping into the mud holes left behind. In those days the only means of transportation in the poorest of areas were your feet.

THE NEED FOR RELEVANCE AND ACCEPTANCE; in an obsessively depressed and self oppressed society
By John R. Hernandez, Jr. © 2011 http://www.newdawnmedia.wordpress.com http://www.newdawncommunications.blogspot.com
Today, people are so depressed and self-oppressed, that the need for relevance and acceptance is hideously transforming and affecting our way of life. Nose, lip, genital rings; tattoos, cuttings and skin markings, shaved heads, spiked hairdo’s of varying colors- the more colorful the better; slang, hand movements, body gestures, the occasional snag of the crotch while trying to sound and look debonair; the love of the occult and vampirism, the need for stronger and wilder drugs, prostitution and commercialization of seduction; gangs, water fountain cliques, worship of sports, fads, fashion, clichés, the sun, the moon and astrology; and the desire to be known as an individual -set apart- from all or any rules or values and morals once found as a way of life within their progeny.
It is easy to understand why this society has chosen to allow the murder of over 50 million un-born children -when not too long ago- the church itself stood by while over 3 million Jews and other undesirables were slaughtered and gassed by Hitler’s ghouls. Today Nazism is alive and well and when it is not denying the Holocaust it is celebrating it. Today we live in a world were women are covered forcibly from head to toe when in public in the name of male chauvinism and hypocrisy. In a world where children are forced to learn to kill as toddlers and then taught to strap on bombs to kill their neighbors. A world were the aging are locked away in what are similar to isolation wards; away from the peering eyes and souls of humanity -unable to hear their cries and moans.

Sitting here in the still of the night, the ocean waves quietly rising across the shore line the moon and stars up above; reminds me of your greatness and goodness my Lord. How often I would come here to be by you, to listen to you whisper your words of love, to strengthen and console me. To hold me in your arms, to walk with me along this long and lonely shore. I want to take you all in my Lord, to let you inside, to be like you; how long have I carried my cross, bared it all and turned the other cheek. I’ve been humbled and humiliated, spat upon and degraded, thrown in jail and yet I have fed the little ones for your name’s sake; nurtured them and taught them about you. In all the world I could not find my rest, my peace, the love of my life; the one I could trust in, my rock and fortress in times of refuge and so once again beneath this moon along this shore before the heavens here I am Lord begging you to do with me as you will.
PASS THIS ONE ON!

Hoarding is Alive and Well in Today’s Corporate World
By John R. Hernandez, Jr. © 7/2011 http://www.newdawnmedia.wordpress.com http://www.newdawncommnucations.blogspot.com
With the latest July-2011 -jobs update- spelling doom and gloom for the 15 million and more unemployed; Corporate America has just fired another salvo at the US Labor Department by sending thousands more back out unto the unemployment lines.
Can you be defined as; an older American, handicapped, poor and Latino or Black or any number of other persons -who fall- or have fallen- below the poverty line; an ex-felon or someone with a criminal record, or just simply a member of the displaced long-term unemployed? If you said “yes” to any or a combination of any of the above, your chances of finding and securing a job are miserably minute. Why? As in Hitler’s era “undesirables” where those type-cast as a dispensable/expendables and as it reads on dictionary.reference.com the definition for dispensable is “–adjective 1. Capable of being dispensed with or done without; not necessary or essential. 2. capable of being dispensed or administered.” It has come to my attention that hoarding did not go out with the last Neanderthal Ice Age or neither has its popularity been diminished by the “Hoarders” show over satellite networks. No, my friends- the practice of hoarding is still alive and well across the globe. But, in my opinion the most hideous of places Hoarding is alive and growing is in Corporate America, –as-well-as-anywhere the possibility of a job will exchange hands between an employer or its agents and any possible prospect. Today, employers and their agents hoard jobs!! The reasons why they do this despicable act or acts is for the same reasons a child hoards candy or toys or anything near them. Hoarding is a another way of exercising one’s power around their subordinates or peers. One barters this power by way of exchanging favors such as for admiration, status imaging, prowess, click building and maintenance and keeping out certain members of societal groups, etc.,,etc.,,! In some circles hoarding is big business and profitable for certain members of a specific race. Take for example, why are so many firemen and police “public servants” in the upper US East Coast members of a specific ethnic group? When one looks at the statistics one -like me- walks away scratching his head. Even in the face of all the laws that say that this should not be happening it is -right before- our eyes. That is hoarding! There are well over 15 million Americans today unemployed and –because- I have brought this issue up -I will be demonized. Not for speaking the truth –but- for not keeping my mouth shut and simply finding some –whole- somewhere unheard and unseen. Going against the grain has it’s pitfalls -in this society- and some have been buried like out in the middle of some landfill. Never the less, hoarding will continue unabated in Corporate America -until- those behind the walls of the US Labor Department decide to get up off their over- paid tushes and do something about it.
Your tireless unpaid Societal Servant,
John R. Hernandez, Jr.

OVERVIEW OF MY PETITION ON CHANGE.ORG
By John R. Hernandez, Jr. © 2011-NDMH
Get America Working Again With My New Nationwide Program
My new program is important because nothing is getting done to help get a greater number of the 15 to 20 million people back to work. Corporations have become very skilled at figuring out ways to get more done with less. Because of the lucrative rewards of Workforce Initiatives via Job Credits many companies have adopted unspoken rules and practices of separating the hiring pool and favoring TANF recipients and those on public assistance over others who are searching for work but don’t meet the Workforce Guidelines. By limiting the workforce to a certain segment of the population; this would benefit many corporations scavenging for job credits which I feel is borderline discrimination. Furthermore, this only helps to isolate available individuals seeking employment and forces them back to the unemployment lines. The states are doing very little to help get the long term back to work when they are not scrutinizing the process of hiring. Fifteen Million unemployed tells me there is something wrong here that needs to get fixed quick and forcing capable people back out on the streets while favoring others because that helps to line your pockets, is shameful and unfair. Outsourcing jobs has practically destroyed the semi skilled to skilled positions out there, while streamlining work details has affected the overall total makeup of most companies. Farming out -hiring processes- to temporary staffing agencies in order to transfer most of the payroll and general benefit responsibilities tells me that corporations are still up to their old tricks. They are battening down the hatches and turning the American Workforce into another disposable commodity! In a society where more and more pressure is being placed on the few members of the workforce not affected by permanent lay offs or cut backs.
THE NUTS AND BOLTS OF MY NEW NATIONWIDE PROGRAM:
A Petition in Support of a Two Part Referendum: PART I: To Make States Accountable to Create Jobs Based on their Number of Unemployed Individuals Residents. PART II: In Order to Restore Our Economic Engine and Thereby Restore the Lives of 15 Million or More Unemployed Americans this Referendum Must Require Provisions for the Following to be Included as Guarantees to Insure the Success of this Effort.
By John R. Hernandez, Jr. © 6/11 http://www.newdawncommunications.blogspot.com http://www.newdawnmedia.wordpress.com
Statement of Provisions:
When have you heard the feds going after any state because they reneged on their mandatory obligations to create an X number of jobs? What if we could (Provision #1) make them create X number of jobs and base that figure on the rate of unemployed individuals? So that now they have a federally mandated obligation to create jobs in their respective states. But wait it gets better! What if tied to this were another (Provision #2) obligation that would require every state department of labor to audit all their agencies within their state to make sure that all the information they provide to prospective job seekers was up to date, guaranteed reliable and that the jobs they sought out for job seekers were qualified jobs that met guidelines. Which would guarantee a livable wage, not just based on the states minimum wage criteria -but- based on the particular individuals set of circumstances. For example if you have an individual who was making $2,000 per month but lost their job through no fault of their own? Then, the new guidelines would have to say that a formula based on that persons financial obligations to his family, to the roof over his or her head, to children living outside the home; for which he or she is responsible for providing every day subsistence -to be- counted including all his debts to creditors and any payments he or she is obligated to make. (Provision #3) To guarantee that while they are unemployed and for three years after they are reemployed that no court action can be taken against them for any unpaid fines, unpaid court orders, unpaid tax liens, unpaid backed up child support, unpaid student loans obligations, unpaid traffic fines, unpaid property taxes, unpaid obligations to any loans including interest.
This is a mandate; a referendum to see if it will be possible for the American people to get back on their feet without having to look over their backs just when they finally find work. It gives them piece of mind, and just when you thought it couldn’t get any better. Check this out! (Provision #4) A guarantee that if once they do get a job that satisfies all their necessities and they keep that job for a length of three years without interruption and they abide by all the rules of the prescribed agreement; that a percentage of their fines and debt will be forgiven and some of their debt will be forgiven in its entirety. How does this nation or this government expect to help get America back on its feet and productive again if all it wants to do is bail out the rich and famous and do nothing to bail out the long term unemployed and hurting. People are cash strapped, about to lose their homes and many already have; to hungry lenders. But if we could put a stop to that and guarantee to the American people that we will draw up a plan to help get them back on their feet and it will start with an agreement of -debt forgiveness- if they abide by all the rules of this agreement and in 36 months or so they can be almost or completely debt free. I imagine that, the small loan you may owe your old alma mater disappeared because you abided by the agreement that guaranteed you freedom and your transcripts back to go out and continue your blocked education dreams? Imagine all but a portion of your property taxes disappeared because you made the right decision and stuck by the plan. Imagine those huge federal student loan debts reduced so drastically you finally know you can breathe again because you followed the agreement guidelines. Imagine all debt gone or almost gone because you finally got an agreement that will guaranteed to bail you out too; just like the big three and the multi-million financial institutions got? So what do you think? We got to roll up our sleeves and get 15 million people back on their feet -breathing again- and no care in the world for them; no more looking behind their shoulder, no more changing addresses every time the government or the credit card companies or the banks or any debtors come with the garnishment notices and liens? All gone or almost gone! Give us three years of your life, get through our boot camp Agreement Guidelines and soon you will have the freedom to travel, to invest again, to never again be afraid to open up a bank account and start saving again. Imagine, guaranteed job training in the field d of your choice, guaranteed pay while training that meets or exceeds your wildest expectations (rewards incentives for job training) just follow our guidelines that is all we ask. Give us three years of your time and we will get you back on track. After all the big financial institutions got back on track within 18 months as well as the big three! Why can’t we make that promise to the American people? Wait a minute I think I hear a question from the peanut gallery on the right side of the aisle, yes ok what is it? Oh yes your asking how are we going to pay for this socialist agenda? Hmm?? Let see, hum, well one day at a time! This is an investment in the American people and on this nation’s economy. I think the rich corporations would be glad to pitch in, let’s see, oh yes private philanthropists; J. Paul Getty what did you say you’ll chip in a few hundred billion? My goodness I think that just about will cover it! But if there are any other generous benefactors out there, oh yeah, Donald Trump, glad to make your acquaintance; for once you’re investing in the real apprentices! And oh yeah Iraq, Afghanistan, Pakistan Saudi Arabia, Yemen, and all our friends in the Middle East who have enjoyed the benefits of all our gestures of good will –courtesy- of the US Armed Forces; of course will take your check, oh wait a minute better send it to our Pay Pal account, its quicker! Oh and Canada –yes- I forgot about that small issue of Free Trade; sure will take a check, how much $100.00 Billion -no problem- you can send the rest in quarterly installments to the Peoples National Referendum Headquarters C/O to the officer in charge of the accounts to Restore the Jobs and Lives of 15 Million Americans. But wait, you say you can’t do it? Okay, send him back to the back of the line! Back to when we were being held hostage by student loans, revolving unemployment lines AND short term jobs, etc.,!

If you made it to the bottom of this document you may want to take another closer look at what I already mentioned above as to the why so many millions of Americans with Land and Home Contract Package Deals for purchase of homes have been completely ignored by everyone up on Capital Hill; during and after all the hearings and hoopla over the mortgage spectacles in the face of this most horrific of recessions. Shameful!!

Some Factual Data on the Transportation Needs of the Poor and Aging Populations in Rural Areas
Written and Edited by John R. Hernandez, Jr. http://www.newdawnmedia.wordpress.com http://www.newdawncommunications.blogspot.com
Hello everyone, I wanted to thank you all for your help with this petition and I thought I would offer you some scholarly data that might interest you. I have wanted to write about this issue forever! I can remember putting proposals together as far back as some 15 to 20 years ago; that dealt with any social issue I came across. I have been a victim of transportation problems as I am sure some of you have at one time or another, in your life. The only research I did for this petition was the images that have been embedded in my mind throughout the years. The following data -you will find here- I decided to bring it to your attention –because- I have been concerned about the lack of attention or action this petition has been getting; as well as, I have been concerned about the lack of attention my other petitions have been getting. So, last night on the 17th of July I gathered up some factual data. Hoping, that your friends and family and their friends will see the facts as they have been collected.

“The Day After”
By John R. Hernandez, Jr. © 2011 http://www.newdawncommunications.blogspot.com http://www.newdawnmedia.wordpress.com
After the thunder and lightning subsided and the rains -seized falling- there was light and the heavens opened up and Angels in the millions and millions hovered above and stood before a white heavenly cloud and -all at once- clapped their hands and the cloud disappeared. And what appeared to be a City of Gold that shined like diamonds sat upon their shoulders; and there were guards of the Most High that carried swords of fire with smoke bellowing from them. Who’d returned to meet the rest, who’d bowed down as we all did for His face was like the fire of a hundred suns. But it didn’t burn me it was cool to the touch or so I thought I’d touched His face. And children by the millions kneeled praising Him and all the elders before his throne stood praising Him and all those who’d gone before us -stood by us- and greeted us and welcomed us. It was dark when I awoke -in the early morning hours- the day after the Great Tribulation when the armies of the Most High destroyed the armies of the evil one -in one great battle. And now I could see the sun rising up again, they had pushed back darkness into the great abyss; this is where they went those seekers of knowledge, who sought after the furthest of the heavens. Believing themselves to be like the Most High they called themselves the “Knowers” those who peer into the smallest of places trying to find God -trying to make Him talk- to get Him to stand before them. To get Him to listen to them, to obey their demands, to make Him appear -as frail as all of them- and the fires descended from the heavens and their eyes were shut closed. From the mighty fires that swooped down upon them like the days of Pentecost. They could be seen speaking in tongues and crying before the Great Presence of The Lord of Hosts and all his Guardian Angels. That cried out with a loud voice and who made the mountains tremble and the earth shake and the oceans spill their great waters unto the lands of the Pacific and of the Atlantic and swell in many places. And I stood in awe of all of this…trembling and shaking and speechless praising the Almighty with -all my heart- and all my soul and all my strength…..
CELEBRATING 20 YEARS OF UNPAID PUBLIC SERVICE; the following story appeared twenty years ago out of a broken down typewriter I owned
THE TRICKLE DOWN EFFECT OF THE WAIT AND SEE GAME
By John R. Hernandez, Jr.
Editor in Chief Starlight News Service
“A SPECIAL EDITORIAL”
Only those that are forced to live in deteriorating rat and roach infested, unimproved tenement buildings know, what it’s like to be cramped in, to have to put up with the stench of piss in the stairwells or the -vulgarity of- foul language being spoken often times in the direct presence of children. Who must make their way through the filth and stench of unlit walkways on their way to schools; that occasionally offer similar environments. Only, those who must, because of their economic status; live in conditions often less comfortable than animals in a zoo. Or know what it’s like to come home beneath the sweltering heat, only to find the stench, the drugs and the confines of the smoldering cramped apartments they live in; a genuine living maddening hell. Who would but for a moment in the distant time and space of the television picture tube, even trade a second’s moment of peace to be in the place of one of these less fortunate. Almost every day in the newspaper you can see a story about some act of kindness, or some human rights event; yet, people today are and have been living right under our noses in oppression and deprivation of their basic human rights. Every day in the fear driven madness of inner city public housing, for ten years or more we’ve been hearing the rumors of an impending day of reckoning, and for those same ten or more years men women and children have had to fight their way through the stench, the drugs and the violence; the moments and the minutes spent in fear. In abject poverty, like prisoners of a system that collapsed before them; that seemed to have failed, and meant nothing! or something would have been done sooner, while the apologist’s will say that, “things like these take time kid”. The truth of the matter is that its politics that is almost always at the heart of the bottleneck of most if not all these so-called social projects; and the games of politics usually carries with it a hard price to pay. Usually, those that pay the price undoubtedly are the innocent recipients of the political games. Very few projects come to fruition without some give-and-take, usually those taking end up with a larger chunk of the money pie than those expecting to receive. Because, somebody always has their hands out waiting for the right type of legislation to come along -that needs their support- and that they as good civil servants simply just cannot deny lending their aide to. How many bills have not been -bought outright- for the sake of a few votes or two. Gerrymandering, manipulation of local districts, etc. these and more are ways for individuals or groups to maneuver public and private sentiment towards their particular pet projects, all at the expense of tax payer’s hard earned but often ill taken, ungratefully spent dollars. Wait a minute, the manipulation does not stop there, we must not forget about what politicians will do to get votes and how low they’ll crawl or in what or with whom they’ll bed!

The Dark Side of America

This post first appeared on my newdawnmedia.wordpress.com page a month ago!
I am waiting for Obama and or Boehner to start visiting the Ghettos; where the poor must live among the perdition of this world. Where the elderly must get through life in fear and abandonment. Where children must play in dirty -filthy- streets and drug infested broken down playgrounds. Where there is no public transportation that will help take the poor to find a better life, a better job. It’s time he visited those in the Back Alleys of this World we live in; where the prostitutes, and the drunks and crack addicts hide in the darkness of their shame. It’s about time he visited the unemployment lines; from the Alaskan highlands to the hills of Illinois, from the shores of the pacific coasts to the streets of South Central, LA; from the border towns of Arizona to what’s left of Louisiana; To the dry Highland Plains along the Trail of Tears that leads to the unemployment lines of the poorest rural East Coast towns; from Florida to Georgia and on through Alabama, Tennessee and up through the Carolina’s and straight through unto DC and Maryland and Jersey, New York and the furthest of our northern cities…,.
It’s time the forgotten and hopeless; those who lost their life’s savings, their families and homes as a result of corrupt financial predators and the recession. It’s time they got to see the laid off and abandoned, the elderly, the incapacitated and infirmed; the poor children playing in the ghetto streets, and those imprisoned by addiction and mental aberrations –till they got to see the face and eyes of their President!

BRINGING YOU THE NEWS THEY DON’T WANT US TO TELL YOU
AMERICA AT THE PRECIPICE:
WE CAN DIG OURSELVES OUT OR LET THEM BURY US ALL…

Below you will find precious comments from many of my readers. If only they truly knew how much it means to me? There is no amount of money in the world that could take the place of their kind appreciation. I thought that publishing my poetry book would help finance some of the costs of putting these websites together. I realize that not all poetry and social activism go together. But, I dont have the luxury of ignoring what God put inside of me. On the one hand he has given me this incredible talent to create wonderful poetry and on the other hand he has given me this zeal and fire to help the less fortunate among us. I’ve learned a lot since I created the websites and went live on Facebook. I learned that there is room for someone like me and the content I provide. I’ve learned that there are a people out there that appreciate someone that shoots from the hips, that calls it the way he sees it, and not someone that is kissing the rear end of the pundits and glory mongers up on the Hill. And I especially found out that people aren’t interested in phony journalism or journalists that pander to the ratings with empty words. I realized that what this nation needs is someone that will tell it like it is and be there to face the morning fallout. So far I have not had had one person give me negative feedback on anything I have commented on any of my sites, including Facebook. But, what I am most concerned with is not so much why my book is not selling or why there is no real; participation on my sites. I can understand cheapskates. What I cannot understand is why so many people seem to admit liking the petitions I have posted on Facebook and elsewhere. But, still they will not sign them or get their connections to step up and sign them. These are real great petitions that deal with helping people and helping to get Americans back to work. Why you guys out there are not signing these petitions has totally made me take a serious look at what or why I am here at all. Doing what I do every day, week in and week out; with no pay, no rewards no investments and finally all I see is complete refusal to support my petitions. Unfortunately, people are more interested in what they can get for free and not in investing in helping a fellow poet and social activist or even in the least to help out their fellow American citizen. One day perhaps you will look back and wonder why you did not support me or maybe even why or how it happened that this nation fell into the toilet. Fortunately for me I am not like that! But you guys will have to live with the choices you are making. Refusing to sign a petition to help your fellow man? If you cannot do this then I guess there is no point for me to be doing what I do. Then again maybe that is what you guys want for me to do, to shut it all down. I thought there was more left to this nation than what I am seeing; I guess I was wrong all along. I thought by keeping it all free it would be the best thing to do and just count on the ads and affiliate links support. You tell me what you want me to do.

REMARKS FROM SOME READERS
UNITED WE STAND DIVIDED WE FAIL!
I would wish that you took a close look at all these remarks that people are leaving. Remember that my topics relate to many social issues including teenage suicide. One the remarks could belong to the child or brother or sister of someone out there. I realize that some people don’t mind reading about social issues that affect others someplace else far away. But, when it hits closer to home that is when they find it hard to accept. We cannot help each other if we are all going in opposite directions. So many of us have deiced to go our own separate way, to disregard the rules that have been handed down to us for centuries and make up our rules as we along. United we stand divided we fail!!!!

Left Behind; tear stains in a dumpster
By John R. Hernandez, Jr. © 2011 http://www.newdawnmedia.wordpress.com http://www.newdawncommunications.blogspot.com
My offbeat rough sketch of a movie “Dumpster Kids”
Once a week another motel family is evicted and another one moves in; the dumpsters out back become filled with the belongings of those evicted. A child is walking away, his hands filed with books and toys. Dumpster kiddies are children that live out of motels and who are living below the subsistence level; mainly from donations provided by charity, community members and faith based organizations. The teacher says,” they’ll go to jail early, they’ll get pregnant early…” Motels are the batting cage for many of these families most of which come from the streets. Until they get another shot at living in their own apartments or getting the luxury of owning their own homes. Honestly, the batting average is very low for those who end up here. When you look into the faces of these motel kids you can’t help but hurt inside unless you’re not human. These children are the products of economic downturn; layoffs, cutbacks, outsourcing, plant closings, alcohol abuse and drug abuse, death in the family -mostly as the result of gang violence or abuse. The children playing in the classroom are siblings; the little girl chases her brother around the room as the teacher asks him questions about getting attention. The kids laugh and the sister falls on top of her brother as he laughs; and for a moment the room is so filled with love. Outside it turns dark and the fireworks from Disneyland over the horizon lights up the sky while the noise from the pyrotechnics triggers car alarms in the parking lot; the kids look up and enjoy the fireworks and the rainbow of lights in the sky. The ones that are thrown out often end up back on the streets once-again homeless. And often they end up sleeping in the park along with the gang members, the drug dealing, gang banging and the shootings. Today, the soup lines are long, the tables are set in a way where they can easily file down the line and put on their plates whatever they like. The little girl says, “God gives you the things you need not the things you wish for”. The brothers are talking to the interviewer and one brother says that, “though I am moving to a real home soon there’s one thing, I have been to four schools and now another.” What some poor American families and their children are facing are the products of out sourcing, plant closings, job loss, drug and alcohol abuse and governmental neglect. I realize there are children throughout the world that need our help and this is the least God asks of us; to be charitable, to give, to offer help to the less fortunate, But is it possible that with all the wealth this nation has amassed and all its riches and the wealth of corporations; homelessness is still a way of life for so many children out there? I, slowly wipe my eyes once again and in closing I can’t help but think of what will become of my petitions and the 15 million I am trying to help? Maybe some of them are leaving remarks on this site because they enjoy my comments?
My Sunday Morning Door Buster; THINK ABOUT IT!
By John Hernandez, Jr. © 2011-08-21 http://www.newdawnmedia.wordpress.com http://www.newdawncommuniactions.blogspot.com
THINK ABOUT IT! Is a monthly enchilada of comments on critical issues
The Chief Patriarch of the Miserly Scrooge Legacy Steps up to the Plate;
The coming new world order is not too far in sight
Could we be heading for a dictatorship? At the rate that we are racking up deficits and unpaid bills along with trillion dollars in massive borrowing. We cannot sustain our economy and or the rate at which we hope to pay off these debts within the framework of the type of government we have. What I mean is that a four year or eight year presidency is beginning to look incapable of containing the massive wealth of debt we have built; and still hold the lid down -long enough- for the following administration to step in and contain further. Without a -three mile island- type scenario within the financial and stock sectors. This is why -unless this is already being played out- for it to happen at some time in the future- the possibility of an extended term of say 12 to 16 year presidency or an eventual dictatorship is not out of the question. Especially after you see the kind of bums where elected into office in the past year. And, especially, when you consider that those who hold the cards -meaning the massive wealth- have nothing to loose; either way. Since they will most likely get to pick who the CEO will be of this new form of government.
Think about It!
While I applaud the guts and bravado of Mr. Buffett for having stepped up to the Table of Selfless Giving and crying out, “tax me by darn it tax me now”. Where have these billionaires been? It’s been almost three years since Mr. Obama became President of the United States of America; why has it taken this long to stand up and offer your help? Obama took the helm and began to fight vigorously against the title wave of financial instability that plagued this nation. He single-handedly attacked the Wall Street predators, the much needed bailout of the big three and the financial institutions; who -admittedly succumbed- to the pressures from the administration to drink the bitter poison of shame. Obama for the last three years has been vilified, humiliated, scorned and downright almost libeled and slandered for simply trying to get people back to work and by helping resuscitate the American economy. And now almost three years after this unending assault on the Presidency of these United States by one and all; the patriarch of the miserly billionaires decides its about time they stood up to the Table of Selfless Giving and threw in their pound of flesh. I wonder how many billions in profits he has made along with his cohorts off of the backs of helpless Americans. Don’t you think for one minute that when one of them steps up to the table to offer his miserly contribution he already has figured out how to get it back three times over in tax loopholes, credits, kickbacks and offsets?????? When they step up to hand you a dollar they already know how they will get it back three times over. How could we tax the rich and still resolve our economic catastrophe’s when -for one- the rich profit and benefit from our calamities and -for two- they will still make a profit for every dollar they throw into the pot? Think about it -my friend- think about it.

The normal part of the world looks at America as its role model; when it is the world’s leader in the killing of the unborn; it has the greatest number of non-custodial fathers; it is slowly becoming the suicide capital of the world; it incarcerates it’s unwanted elders as a fad; it is considered to be lacking in compassion; lost in indecision over God; hateful, greedy, selfishly and self-centered; hooked on video games, vampire movies, alcohol, drugs and pornography..!

This Nation Needs to Get its Priorities in Order; In My Opinion
By John R. Hernandez, Jr. © 2011 http://www.newdawnmedia.wordpress.com http://www.newdawncommunications.blogspot.com
An Occasional Inspirational Message by the Founder of New Dawn Media Horizons
If you want to win elections you’ve got to understand what is hurting people the most and how you intend to help this society handle its problems in the face of this nation’s worst economic disaster since the great depression. In my opinion the answer to this nation’s problems are clear and easy to deal with once the leadership of this nation has decided to gets its priorities in order:
1). Bankruptcy lawyers, trustees and the courts need to help their clients create payment plans in harsh economic times instead of walking out on them.
2). Employers must not be allowed to confiscate a laid off employee’s pension savings during harsh economic times; even if they have only been there a little less than three years.
3). People that are paying their way through Land and Home package contracts need just as much help as traditional mortgage holders. Instead they were ignored and their issues were not addressed during all the time the US Congress and others on Capitol Hill held their hearings concerning foreclosures and real estate related discussions.
4). Universities need to understand that during harsh economic times denying debtors a payment arrangement (which happened to me) is not the best way to try and help get this nation back on its feet.
Social Security, SSI, Medicare, Aid to Families and Dependent Children, Food Stamps, Welfare and many other programs administered individually or in conjunction with faith based institutions must never be dismantled or slashed. Instead this nation must be made aware that further aid is needed, stronger programs with far better implementations of care and aid to the less fortunate must be put into place. We have but one way out of the cancerous malaise that has affected this nation for far too long and that is through furthering our present infrastructure of programs for the less fortunate and needy and developing stronger programs to reinforce those at the bottom of this nations class structure.
Because of their contribution to our society this nation is alive and on its way back to a complete recovery but not without the miraculous intervention of God Almighty. If we are experiencing this nation’s worst economic decline it is because of our indulgence with war and our apathetic treatment of those we’ve taken for granted for far too long. If this nations leadership would embark on an economic renewal and recovery mission much like the mission of war that we have been indulging in for the past 18 years we would be able to balance our priorities and get the economy back in gear. But somehow this nations leadership for far too long has been focused on foreign intervention and less focused on social and economic intervention in this nation.
This nation’s leadership has been ignoring the most important priorities. This nation has forgotten the word of God and his priorities. He tells us, “Come to me and never thirst again and never forget to feed and clothe those less fortunate among you”. When are we going to get it through our heads that we will never save the world without God’s approval and guidance and we will never get it done if we are bankrupt and incapable of defending ourselves? If we are to reap God’s blessings we are to read God’s word and act upon it and not go blindly throughout the world building coalitions with nations who themselves are to blame for the majority of the economic and social instabilities they face. We know this is the truth and we know this is the problem. Yet, we build coalitions with those who support our enemies. And those who pay for the mistakes that this nation’s leadership has and is making are paying it through the sacrifice and blood of thousands of our nation’s innocent children.
This nation’s leadership is so hell-bent on this new world order, this global consolidation of power in the hands of the few over the will of the many; that it seems nothing we say will make a difference and I am afraid not even what God has to say. Remember that all throughout history the facts state that those who turn their face away from God have fared badly. Jesus says, “Behold, I stand at the door and nock, if anyone has ears to listen let him answer me and bid me entrance wisely and I will stand with him”. This nation is behaving like a true drunkard, staggering up to the bar stool looking for another drink from those who it once believed to be its friends. But who are now or may soon be removing the limitless tab it has been building. If this nation wants to return to the bullpen of the global playing field it has to bolster its economic leverage, realize that further limitless global defense campaign spending and utter disregard of the word of God and his authority, will only bring self-destruction. And furthermore taking out your problems on the less fortunate, the disadvantaged and helpless will never win you favor with God. That is why I detest those who hide behind the cloak of morality and religion and then want to dismantle and erase all that has been done to create a safety net for the less fortunate in society!
Sincerely,
John R. Hernandez, Jr.
Vanishing Remnants of a Once Proud Nation: the dismantling of social programs is but the latest attack on the social and cultural fabric of this nation
By John R. Hernandez, Jr. © 2011 http://www.newdawnmedia.wpordpress.com http://www.newdawncommuncations.blogspot.com
There was a time in American culture when just about every family I knew of had its very own family bible and in it you could find the names of every member of that family –sometimes- as far back as a generation or two. I remember as a child and well into adulthood; how I would offer my blessings whenever I approached an elder member of the family and they in turn would bless me. Funny thing about living in a rural area you can run into some familial artifacts when making a run down to the dumpsters. Not too long ago my ex told me not to try and change my kids, because, as far as she was concerned they were individuals. That shocked me that she would try and put a wedge between me and my children. By trying to alienate cultural practices such as the one I just mentioned above from them. My traditional cultural practices have been handed down to me from generation to generation. And it is an insult to me and my family and my predecessors when someone tells me not to practice or hand down these traditions. It’s like I am being told it is useless and no longer acceptable to observe something that we have been doing for hundreds if not thousands of years. Now, I am not trying to get personal but it seems to me that this nation sure has changed -culturally speaking- of course. Seems like the American society I knew when I was growing up still had some vestiges left of family traditions. Traditions that go way back into my generations and maybe even yours if you search a little closer. But, what’s even more of a curiosity to me is how easily overlooked our rapidly disappearing familial traditions and cultural practices -can mean so little- to many of us. The family bible once a staple of almost every generation has gone by the wayside along with the old neighborly gestures of tipping your hat or waving hello to a stranger when passing. Oh yes, here in the so-called Bible Belt church activities and meetings are still vivid and popular in many communities –but- if you ask the average pastor you’d find out that participation has dropped substantially within the last few decades. Another sign of vanishing American cultural traditions. The closer you get to the big cities the further you get from the old familial cultural practices that were the fiber that kept many communities together. Why am I bringing this subject up you may ask? Because I think it’s worth mentioning. It also seems to me that more time is spent bickering about the differences between denominational congregations instead of what is common among them. In my opinion, I think the reason for the loss of much of this nation’s once proud cultural heritage appears to be. That, generation after generation, has fallen into the muck and mire of caring less and less about keeping up with the cultural practices; that came along with helping to maintain the values and morals that helped to strengthen the character we inherited from our forefathers. I would love for you to prove me wrong by just writing me and telling me about how you and yours are helping to maintain and pass along your cultural familial practices and traditions.
Behind Closed Doors; the inheritance of being cursed
By John R. Hernandez, Jr. © 2011 http://www.newdawnmedia.wordpress.com http://www.newdawncommunications.blogspot.com
“I started a petition one month ago today to help get free and expanded transportation for the rural poor and all but 30 people signed it. Those of us who have the gift of a compassionate heart can only wonder why the rest of America and the world could care less about the aging, about the plight of the poor and or about poverty itself! We live in a society obsessed with aborting what confines them; what deprives them of their so-called individualism, what encroaches upon their perceived rights, what violates their ability to do as they please.” By John R. Hernandez, Jr.
YOU HAVE TO KILL AND DESTROY -EVERYTHING INSIDE OF YOU- THAT MAKES YOU DESPICABLE, WORTHLESS IN THE EYES OF GOD AND USELESS TO YOUR FELLOW MAN
In the Genesis of biblical history the children of Israel were told to kill and destroy everything they came upon when entering Canaan. Did they listen? No. For this reason God set them up to become as despicable as those they were told to destroy. It is important to note this great event in Jewish history if you are to try and understand why people act and behave the way they do in today’s world. To understand the reasons why the people of Canaan were the way they were you have to go back to the story of Noah and his sons and how Ham uncovered his father’s nakedness. But suffice it to say that once Noah was made aware of this account he cursed the offspring of Ham. When one looks further into the offspring of Ham one sees that the land of Canaan was riddled with every kind of devil and false god worship. This explains why God told Joshua not to let the Israelites adopt the Canaanite’s pagan practices, but to destroy everything in sight. They worshipped hundreds of gods and their fornication rivaled that of today’s freest spirited among us. When we jump ahead to today’s day and age we find society split along two lines. One side is bent on living out a life of; Hatred, Greed, Envy, and Jealousy –while- succumbing to the most aberrant of human emotions and behaviors. Even in the later years we see our parents as they fade away and waste with age; but some of us are compassionate, caring and loving. While, others simply could care less. The average elderly person that gets put into senior housing is a victim of abuse by their family members; children, brothers and sisters and spouse. The record of the crimes inflicted on the elderly is mind boggling. Most family members don’t care or understand the physical and medical frailties that afflict their aging family members. Neglect and abandonment are two of the most prevalent afflictions suffered by the aging populations. I started a petition one month ago today to help get free and expanded transportation for the rural poor and all but 30 people signed it. Those of us who have the gift of a compassionate heart can only wonder why the rest of America and the world could care less about the aging, about the plight of the poor and or about poverty itself! We live in a society obsessed with aborting what confines them; what deprives them of their so-called individualism, what encroaches upon their perceived rights, what violates their ability to do as they please. Imagine we live in a world where hundreds of Nazi Holocaust murderers can live just about anywhere; even though these people have committed the most horrendous crimes against humanity. The crux of the matter is how humanity has allowed them to slip past their noses. When, God forbid you should offend someone or try and impede them from doing -something- that otherwise would go against all known moral turpitude. If humanity could care less about Nazi murderers living under their noses; what makes you think they are going to care about the welfare of their own family members? We live in a society that loves to paint this picture perfect portrait of how wonderful and beautiful life really is; when deep down inside behind closed doors there is a miserable dysfunctional relationship between family members. Despite how many times people go to church they can never seem to get it right and this is what brings them back to another day of sermons and hymns; believing that their actions will vindicate their atrocious behaviors against their family, friends, strangers, co-workers and often God himself. When you look back at the mistakes made by the Israelites and God’s punishment for refusing to follow his instructions it is easy to understand why some people refuse to obey God and follow the straight and narrow.
God has made it so easy for mankind to survive and thrive without his constant intervention. –JRH! 2011

“In your Arms”
By John R. Hernandez, Jr. http://www.newdawnmedia.wordpress.com http://www.newdawncommunications.blogspot.com
Short excerpt from my new book “Beyond the Dawn”
If I could feel your life as you do and taste the
sweet kiss of your lips; if only but for a moment.
As the sun is setting and the last drop of light
gives way to an eternal moment of silence and
your fingers could embrace my gentle
pedals. Then, you would know what I feel as you
hold me in your arms…
“You Loving Me”
Created by John R. Hernandez, Jr. (06) © http://www.newdawnmedia.wordpress.com http://www.newdawncommunications.blogspot.com
You Loving Me….
Like no one ever has or ever will, touched my lips,
melting softly passionately deeply inside of you
To feel your burning body against mine
drenched in sweat; consuming me, overpowering
me tightly, breathlessly, uncontrollably
This sudden tingling rush embracing the landscape
of our lusts, this canvas of silk and satin stained juices,
wet, dripping
A profile cast by shadows embedded on the walls,
silhouettes of passion’s tainted touch
Scattered glimpses strewn about flashing
painting images, turning pages, pastels of sparkling
rainbows
Desires conceived while our hearts lie melting
breathless, soaking, showered by the sparks
of an unquenchable lust
Speechless moments craving the touch of one more
yearning sigh, rhythmically woven, as the precipice
of one more dawn explodes within you loving me…
“You Are”
Created by John R. Hernandez, Jr. (06) © http://www.newdawnmedia.wordpress.com http://www.newdawncommunications.blogspot.com
The breath in me, the path leading me home,
the laughter in my lips, the joy that sets me free. Where I live, where am from, the light to my darkness, where I belong. My reason for hope, the name I love to hear inside me. The eyes, the fire in my soul, who can see within. The reason I live, the magic that flows from your words. The longing I feel, the love I crave, so bold and real. My comfort, the keeper of my heart; my baby,
my girl, my true home. An ocean of pleasures, my eternal friend. An endless moment of passion, the voice inside of me leading me on to where I find my rest. That calming touch, a hope filled kiss; the
bliss I always miss. The warmth in my heart, the pleasure I seek where I’m totally complete. My yearning my comfort, countless tears unleashed; a quiet lonely hope, a cooling breeze. The footsteps
before me, the crashing roar of passion inside; that precious sigh of love in your eyes. A candlelit Moon’s glow, whom I yearn to hold in an ocean of dreams. Waves that unfold, unyielding, embracing us like an eternal storm. Footsteps in the sands of time; pages of our memories rushing past like the days behind us. Like the faces captured on that canvas portraying
the you and I we once were.

A NATION WORTH FIGHTING FOR
WELCOME TO THE NEW AMERICA WHERE ANYTHING GOES
By John R. Hernandez, Jr. http:www.newdawnmedia.wordpress.com 2011
We have just about any type of society to suit your needs and plenty of upward mobility to help you fit-in snuggly wherever you so choose. Here is a list of what we have to offer you our tired and huddled masses. You may choose from any of the Three Tiers on this Menu; if you are out of work, out of luck, physically challenged, economically spent, unwanted and or a member of a threatened group. The Fourth Tier is by invitation only.
1) Sign up to join the Welfare Society. Easy accesses to millions of jobs just make sure you put that in your applications as you rise to the top of Welfare Heaven. Perks will be Section-VIII Vouchers for housing payment assistance and other things we like to keep secret. Food Stamps up the ying-yang. Medical care and low to none deductibles. This is our elitist class of members. They get the choicest crumbs from the top of the Table of Selfless Giving.
2). Here we have the special ones in the upper ranks I like to call the Top Tier or First Tier; of the middle classes who are making well over the hundred thousand mark but who with astute accounting can fit snuggly into the ranks of the lower end tax payers of our lovely land. We will not mention those on witness protection or of ill repute families though they do deserve being reminded of. This is our most popular group since they know how to fit into the lower tax brackets by skating the curious eyes of the Federal IRS boys.
3) The Second Tier boasts the greater number of Americans and anything else that has escaped through the eyes of the ICE team members. These are a group unto themselves. A varied race populated group you might want to call the Middle of the Road. Or the Waiting Pool, where you sit and wait for those you elected to service your needs; while, the back draft of exiting jobs follows the previous administrations runoff clear to Mexico, Asia and other parts of the globe. Here you are either one step from falling over the edge and top of someone at the very bottom or you just might get lucky enough to make it into the Cadet Corps who handle things the Upper Classes refuse to touch.
4) At last, on this list we have the ranks of the rich and happy snail eating mongrels. This is an image straight out of Star Trek movie replete with every sort of scoundrel fit to include. The scene is that of Captain Kirk sitting at a Romulon restaurant. You get the Picture?
Welcome to America!
We hope you enjoy your stay!

EBook Short Description
This book is an ad-hoc English and Spanish compilation of romantic prose written without the benefit of expensive language software. Yet, it is the one of the most beautiful collection of prose from a poor and unknown true master of the art; who has the Spanish blood of romanticism flowing through him.
Extended Description
The book is an assortment of poems that reflect not only on his own life experiences but, some relate to other distinct subjects; all neatly tucked into a most magnificent work of art long to be enjoyed by many generations to come. The main topic of this book is heartbreak and loss and the realization that there is light at the end of the tunnel of torment and pain. The poems read at times like love letters and at other times like endlessly and beautifully written feelings straight from the heart about a loved one. While still others ask the question of why did it end and why can’t it be again? One of these pieces of prose is worth the price of the book and so here lies a treasure for the heart to experience, for a long time to come. You will proudly cherish, share and keep this book in a special place and or even in that library of romanticist prose. Written mostly in the long hand version which does not easily lend itself to the rhyming versions we are so used to seeing from other…
Below are kind words from all parts of the internet regarding my webpage and I appreciate their efforts in what they do to stay alive in this inhospitable economic climate.

WordPress has given us another “star” to pin on my notepad as a result of posting my 35th comment. They said, far out!” and that just gives me the jingies. Thank you WordPress for all you do for all of them out there.
The dumbing down of this society is something that has been in the works for centuries. Drug abuse, child molestation and prostitution, teenage suicide, global warmongering, the thinning of the class divide, job flight; out of control obscene music, videos and language, the growing atheism and disrespect for authority-including fathers and mothers. When we try and change things we are told as I was told by my ex, “Don’t try and change them (our children) they are individuals”. What glory, honor or meaning is there in a Godless society? We are at a point where the Falling Away (The Great Apostasy) as it is spoken of in the Christian Bible (KJV) has reached its phoenix. Thanks to all of the dumbing down by much of the media, promiscuous commercialism, lude and seductive advertising and most of apostate Hollywood.
I have borrowed the following from hnlc.org.au, because this site exemplifies a clearer light into the topic at hand.
I decided to implant a chunk of this website’s posting on my site because I found that their inclusion is necessary to exemplify my point a bit clearer. I think hncl.org.au for all they do for the kingdom of God!

“Release from Religious, Controlling, Unclean Spirits
http://www.hnlc.org.au/rensford/resources/release_from_religious_spirits_1.htmSpirits
A principal presupposition regarding the nature of unseen reality is seen in 1 John 5:19; here is the basis for interaction between the seen and unseen. It is the basis underlying all spiritual warfare understanding. This control of the “kosmos” works by the principles enumerated in Eph 6:12. Types of spirits that oppose the incoming kingdom include;
1] Religious
These are not necessarily openly non-Christian, like New Age, Islam, etc., but add on their special emphasis (“revelation”) to the body of orthodox Biblical faith.. The custodians of the corrupted Jewish faith were called “sons of the devil” by Jesus [John 8:42-7]. The Pharisees led outwardly exemplary lives, but had failed to grasp, and live, the essentials of a godly life; they were long on meetings, prayer, fasting, giving, etc., but short on mercy, justice, compassion and faithfulness, preferring to stand on the side, attack, and criticize [Mat 23:23]. Religious spirits cloud the air to confuse people getting near true truth. They are especially active where there has been a family background of false religion (e.g. Freemasonry, Exclusive Sects).
Jesus came and died to set people free from the domination of the network controlled by the “world spirit” (i.e. Satan) [See 1 John 3:7-10 Acts 10:38 Col 2:15]. This tremendous defeat was inflicted then, and will be fully executed at His second coming [see Rev 20]. In between these two great events, God has given people the opportunity to renounce the devil’s dominion, and escape into the dominion of his Son [Col 1:13-4]. This is applied through salvation [Acts 26:17-8], but it also continues throughout our Christian life, as we appropriate, in an applied manner, what is already ours through our inheritance in Christ. – Much the same way as healing is appropriated.
John Dawson (in Taking our Cities for God) says, “demons (flies) swarm to areas of hurt, bruising, and sin.”. He says they bring deception with them.
There is a tendency, in those under their domination, to experience confusion of gender (loss of masculinity, femininity). Androgyny is a mark of the angels. Fee calls it a deception at Corinth where some “super-spiritual” women, under the influence of false apostles/teachers, have rejected a normal sexual relationship with their husbands because they believe they have arrived at a state of eschatological spirituality beyond gender (like the angels).

ANOTHER LONG COLD WINTER OF INDECISION APPROACHES; AS THE POOR AND HUDDLED MASSES MAKE WAY FOR YET ANOTHER SOCIAL PROGRAM SHUT DOWN:
Apathy and Indifference- the poison- that is strangling the hope promised to the less fortunate in society by every president since the Great Depression
Written and edited by John R. Hernandez, Jr. © 2011 http://www.newdawnmedia.wordpress.com http://www.newdawncommunications.blogspot.com
Newspapers, Radios, Televisions and Computers; the pillars of the Technological Era have consolidated the fangs and rhetoric of political machineries; thereby, helping to create and amass a multibillion dollar industry. Hollywood, Corporate America and the Wall Street insurance peddlers; who prey on the failures and calamities of Americans. Felt the strength of this new consolidated American Political Industry when it stepped in to bail out the giant industrial monoliths of American might. None of which could have been accomplished without the unsubscribed help of the American Tax Payer. It’s become more about how much money you can influence your counterparts to manipulate your way or how much of the funding pie you can control and to where it goes. Usually, to special interests in their own backyards.
And when it comes to slicing off a piece of the American Tax Payer Pie towards helping the less fortunate; Republicans bulk and sneer at the poor as if they don’t deserve the crumbs allotted to them. How different life would be if I was president? Well for starters I would make sure that all men have equal access to their children from birth and let the courts prove their unworthiness to have those rights. I would make sure that politics and religious organizations are not allowed to take control of the airwaves to espouse political rhetoric that favors any particular party. I would make sure that religious entities follow a rigorous initiation –where- they not be allowed to produce or to write about or speak -over the air- about anything that is not of a religious nature. If you want to be a religious entity then that is what you should be espousing biblical truths and not any political rhetoric paid for by tax payer money.
If however you so choose to not accept tax payer funding then you can talk about whatever you like so long as it’s not on the tax payers dime! I would make sure video game manufacturers provide an equal share of educational and Soft Reaction materials for children; because, I feel that way too much is being made that panders to a violent nature. I would make sure social network entities scrutinize who they employ to oversee users; because, way -too many- social networks hire people that have some chip on their shoulders or are just not fit to provide an unbiased service to users. Many network sites hire the wrong people who only end up harassing users instead of sitting back and helping the flow of information to run smoothly.
I would make sure that the poor get the free transportation and other services they deserve. I would make sure that companies that sell cigarettes and or liquor and even drug manufacturers pay a greater share for drug rehab, cancer treatment and other services that cost tax payers billions yearly. I would make sure that all of the aging populations have all the services they deserve on time; and I would help families who desire to keep their elderly at home during the aging process. I would make sure, that boards of education and other administration officials and education providers are held responsible for our children’s education while on school property and that they be reviewed on a semi-yearly basis to make sure that they are doing their best to educate our children.
I would fine, incarcerate and or expel any government entity that is not acting on behalf of the best interest of our children, the working poor, the elderly, the disadvantaged and, the incapacitated, those on public assistance and any other, member of the less fortunate amongst us. As human beings we have to recognize that it is our duty to help the less fortunate. Republicans would like us to believe that we have no responsibility to help others and that they should stand up on their own two feet and get no government help. Most Republicans on The Hill have had their benefits handed down to them from generation to generation. Unlike people out on the streets who have to fight everyday for a crumb of the American Pie.
They on The Hill are ignorant by personal decision to the facts that affect the less fortunate and disadvantaged. Maybe what we need is a litmus test for all future candidates who aspire to become a part of the political machinery; that they get training in multicultural and social sensitive history? The Republicans treat Americans like they are dumb-stupid-children who know no better. Republicans hide behind moral values, Jesus Christ and Religion whenever they espouse their rhetoric; but, wasn’t it Jesus Christ and God himself who has admonished us to help our fellow man and is it not true that government programs are funded from tax payer moneys and much of that is for the charitable work directed to us by God himself. Why do Republicans hate the poor so much?
These are our mandate. Do unto to others as you would like them to do unto you. If you don’t want to sign a petition that will help the poor and disadvantaged then don’t be surprised when you get the same treatment. In my administration ignorance will not be a copout. You can describe your society as a democracy or as a freely elected democratic republic or whatever you heart desires. What has happened to America- is that- way too many laws- have been passed to allow people to become lazier and lazier as the years go by. I don’t think we have -too much freedom- but, that we have way too much abuse over the priorities we so choose to adopt while in the process of enjoying our freedoms. Americans in my opinion have become way too lazy, obstinate and difficult. Because, of the abuse of our freedoms. We have become a mob mentality society. Politics has become another sitcom. Politicians have become experts at manipulating the media with taxpayer money to demonize and or to disgrace the reputation of their competitors -when behind closed doors- they sit and laugh after the elections.
It’s business as usual. The American political machinery much like the American family court system and just about much of our legal system has been turned into the good old boy network; where money dictates who wins in the end regardless of the infractions of justice perpetrated against innocent citizens. It has been well over 45 days since I put up my petitions to help out the unemployed, the rural poor and others; with my latest petition being the creation for a national program to help get the people and economy rolling again. Between, the three petitions I think I have gotten about 45 signers. Can you imagine the amount of time an effort it has taken me to do all of this and the slap in the face I get when people I know from day to day on Facebook and elsewhere completely ignore these petitions?
This is what I like to call selfishness! Americans have become way too apathetic and lazy. They live from week to week from paycheck to paycheck from Friday night drinking binges and party outings and then the rest of their nights or days at work are spent on social networks; and just having a good old time. Americans feel like they are so insulated even in the face of the fact that another 9/11 is about to roll along and yet even that event seems to have been brushed under the rug of ignorance and apathy. Teenage suicide, prostitution, drug abuse, runaways, teenage school dropout, violence against children and many other aberrations have become so the norm that it has been turned into another three minutes of entertainment such as on youtube.com and on cell phones.
And as for all of you who help put another Republican in the Georgia at-will statehouse. Think about this; since Nathan Deal has been in office -funding to social programs has been curtailed; to the effect that one of the most important social programs that helped to bring assistance to mothers and fathers in that state has been completely de-funded and all the people and offices in the entire state that administered the Georgia Fatherhood Program have been shut down. These are the programs that I like to call at the street level. What I find to be so grievous is how the lowest level programs aimed at the most vulnerable members of our society are taking the brunt of the Republican Social Program Slashing Onslaught?
My belief is that humans are inquisitive, knowledge seeking and apart from their hunter gatherer prehistoric members. And this is a good thing, that people are interested in ideas and facts and truths; but, what I am concerned with is how apathetic humans have become when it comes to the limit of compassion they address towards their fellow man and woman. And furthermore I do admire the level of intelligence out there, but I am concerned that all this intelligence is being wasted on things that are diagonally opposite of what a compassionate society should be. It’s a phenomenon to me how very few but 45 people have signed a petition to help the less fortunate and in particular that this denial to partake in helping others is happening in 2011.
Have we reached the peak of the abyss where the intersections of the two-class divide has widened so far that humanity is begun to embrace everything that is contrary to reason, to selflessness, charitable consciousness and devoid of true inward love? Because if this is what my petitions are saying; then, I shatter to think what lies ahead in the near future for this society. If I was president, it would all be so-much-different!

IN SUPPORT OF GEORGIA FATHERHOOD!!!
Below you will find a link to the Georgia Fatherhood Program website and a brief look at what is found on their site from their words. http://www.dtae.org/teched/CTS/fatherhood.html
“The Georgia Fatherhood Program (GFP) is a partnership between the Technical College System of Georgia (TCSG) and the Georgia Department of Labor (GDOL). This program provides education, training and job placement services for non-custodial and custodial parents that are unemployed and underemployed. The GFP offers a statewide systematic delivery of services that enables participants to contribute to the economic wellbeing of their children and the workforce development of the State. The standard is to provide a comprehensive program of services, which includes assessment, workshop competencies, and skills training concurrent with employment. Specifically, the Georgia Fatherhood Program targets parents who: are unemployed; are underemployed with an income less than $20,000 per year; have children receiving TANF benefits; or
lack a high school diploma or GED and who are seeking to increase their earning potential
Cited by the U.S. Department of Education and the National Child Support Enforcement Association as the only statewide program of its kind, the Georgia Fatherhood Program serves as a national model of collaboration for comprehensive training and service delivery to non-custodial and custodial parents.
FATHERHOOD WORKS!
Georgia Fatherhood Program”
“The information about the Georgia Fatherhood Program posted here I borrowed from their website. I feel this is am important program that needs to be refunded and which ultimately helps not only mothers but fathers in the state Georgia.

WHEN ARE YOU GONNA WAKE UP?
REAGAN AND THE BUSH BOYS GAVE US THIS RECESSION WITH THEIR GLOBAL WARMONGERING. BUT IF THAT IS NOT ENOUGH HOMELESSNES WENT THROUGH THE ROOF WHILE REAGAN WAS IN OFFICE. BUSH SENIOR HAD HIS NOSE SO FAR UP THE BACKSIDE OF THE GENERALS AND (SO-CALLED) INTELLIGENCE EXPERTS -THAT- BY THE WAY COULD NOT FIND ONE MAN FOR WELL OVER FIFTEEN YEARS. IT TOOK OBAMA LESS THAN THREE YEARS TO FIND BIN LADEN AND STOP HIS GLOBAL WAR PATH. BUSH JUNIOR TALKED A LOT BUT DID LITTLE FOR THE HOMELESS AND THOSE AT THE BOTTOM OF THE RACIAL AND CLASS DIVIDE. HIDING BEHIND THE CLOAK OF RELIGION AND MORALITY IS GREAT IF YOUR ARE REALLY DOING SOMETHING TO HELP THE LESS FORTUNATE. BUT, TO HIDE BEHIND RELIGION WHILE THREATENING TO CUT OFF THE LIFELINE OF MILLIONS OF HELPLESS AMERICANS; ESPECIALY WHEN THERE ARE OVER 18 MILLION AMERICANS UNEMPLOYED IS DESPICABLE, PHONY AND IN THE EYES OF GOD AND THE REST OF US -DOWN RIGHT- TWO-FACED!

Who is as powerful as my Lord and Savior, as cunning and wise, who can create all of your tomorrows and still the stars up in the sky, and the thoughts of your mind, and count every beat and every breath you take; but he, who is and was and ever will Jehovah Adonai, can any man hear him breath, yet he can hear a million and more , can any man stand beside his awe and not shutter as he wonders before him, in all creation and all there is and ever was he is creator of it all and yet you wonder, you pause and think and scheme, you tremble beneath his lightning and storms and hide when the whirlwind draws near, when the night envelopes you, when sleep overtakes you; you reach to him, to touch him -to wonder- if he is????” © JRH 2011
A Greedy Self Serving Mankind; Worshipping Amongst the Synagogues of Satan
By John R. Hernandez, Jr. 7/11 http://www.newdawnmedia.wordpress.com http://www.newdawncommunications.blogspot.com
You ever ask yourself why do the greedy and naive scum of the earth always seem to rise to the top, while the pure and most blessed of souls have to grumble down in the muck and mire to make a living down here on God’s green earth? You ever wonder why humanity allows millions of unborn babies to be dumped down the toilet every year; unwanted, unloved, despised for what little life they represent to the ungodly and despicable amongst us? You ever wonder why hatred and envy is so prevalent today; why video games and pornography is so popular; why drugs and alcohol are the choicest ways of facing reality; why children are abandoned as are the elderly; why the greedy seem to just get greedier. Every day we pass someone on the streets and we may smile or look the other way or stare uneasily; we go home we turn on the boob tube and watch someone’s life rolled out before us and then we watch as the experts dissect the true meaning of their malaise and then lay it all out before us. We peer into the smallest minutest particles of DNA to get to the bottom of whom or why this person did what he/she did to that other person. We preoccupy our minds, we push it all out and fill it back again with everything we think we like and everything we believe fits neatly into the world we have created for ourselves. But have we ever really asked the question; is this the world we want to live in? Is this the world we truly have created or is it a world that has been diabolically crafted just for our consumption, for our taste buds, to direct and control the pains and yearnings of our compulsive behaviors?
You know what people want most of all? Someone they can depend on and who will not betray them; someone who won’t smile in front of their face while behind those eyes detest the ground they stand on. This is what people want. They want to build networks of friends all around the globe, if possible. Friends who will be there for them in times of need with prayer, love and material help. Instead they rely on the big corporations to do it all for them and they believe their lies all the while the top most wealthy get wealthier and arrogantly thumb their noses at them. Telling them they deserve their riches; all those cars, boats, homes, money in the bank, properties, businesses, jewelry, clothes –because- they feel they worked hard for what they got. We live in a greedy self-serving world where pain and suffering is a way of life for so many out there. There are so few in high places that truly care for those at or near the bottom and what little we or they have down here they want to hold unto. To keep the rest of us away from their grain of wealth, from their private little miserable world, alienating the rest of us around them never realizing that what little they may have and what little we may have is slowly corroding. Slowly fading away, slowly drifting from ours and their hands –because- through that dust storm of hatred and despair -there are many up on top- who would like to see that little bit of charity or love or help taken away.

ON THE PALESTINIAN-ISRAEL ISSUE
To those who support the Muslim Radical Extremist anti-Israel Palestinian cause I say this; after your done killing every Jew and pushing them into the Sea and raping their children and torturing their elderly and burning down their lands. What are you going to do when -Jesus the Jew- stands before all of you with all the Hosts of Heaven upon the Mount of Olives? Where are you going to hide? Where are you going to run to? Are you going to run to Facebook and spit one last time in the face of another Jew? You can’t erase the face of Jesus from Jerusalem!!! But, since he died for the sins of the world it isn’t -too late yet- to repent and be free of all your hatred! Don’t wait till it’s too late; I hear there is no end to the torment of HELL!!

“You have heard that it was said, “You shall love your neighbor and hate your enemy.” But I say to you, Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you, so that you may be sons of your Father who is in heaven; for he makes his sun rise on the evil and on the good, and sends rain on the just and on the unjust.” Mathew-
start>>>The following excerpt is borrowed from yahooanswers.com and was posted by Bill:
“The record of the Vatican in relationship to the Holocaust is one of the great moral failures in history—one from which the Catholic Church itself has yet to recover,” writes columnist James Carroll in The Boston Globe. To back up his point, he lists the following historical data: “1929—The Lateran Pacts between Mussolini and Pius XI give the Vatican freedom and money, and they give needed prestige to Mussolini. [1933]—The Vatican signs a Concordat with Hitler, his first international success. . . . 1935—Mussolini invades Abyssinia. Catholic bishops bless Italian troops . . . 1939—Mussolini decrees an end to the rights of Jews in Italy. The pope says nothing. . . . 1942—The pope receives reports from Italian army chaplains about the extermination of the Jews. In his Christmas message, he bemoans the fate of ‘unfortunate people’ killed because of their race, but he does not mention Hitler, Germany or the death camps. Once again, the word ‘Jew’ is not used. . . . 1943—Germans begin to round up Jews in Italy, even in Rome near the Vatican. The pope is still silent.”
Why the Churches Kept Silent
ON DECEMBER 8, 1993, Dr. Franklin Littell of Baylor University spoke at the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum about a troublesome “concrete truth.” What was that? The truth, Littell said, was that “six million Jews were targeted and systematically murdered in the heart of Christendom, by baptized Roman Catholics, Protestants, and Eastern Orthodox who were never rebuked, let alone excommunicated.” One voice, however, did consistently speak out about clergy involvement with Hitler’s regime. And the voice, as we have seen, was that of Jehovah’s Witnesses. Holocaust was the state-sponsored, systematic persecution and annihilation of European Jewry by Nazi Germany and its collaborators between 1933 and 1945.” Jews were the primary victims, but the State policy also sought to eliminate Roma and Sinti (two gypsy tribes), the disabled, Poles, Soviet prisoners of war, homosexuals, Jehovah’s Witnesses, and political dissidents. ”

start>>>Excerpt borrowed from Wikipedia:
“In 1947, the British government announced it would withdraw from the Mandate of Palestine, stating it was unable to arrive at a solution acceptable to both Arabs and Jews.[68] The newly created United Nations approved the Partition Plan for Palestine (United Nations General Assembly Resolution 181) on November 29, 1947, which sought to divide the country into two states—one Arab and one Jewish. Jerusalem was designated to be an international city—a corpus separatum—administered by the UN.[69] The Jewish community accepted the plan,[70] but the Arab League and Arab Higher Committee of Palestine rejected it.[71] On December 1, 1947, the Arab Higher Committee proclaimed a three-day strike, and Arab bands began attacking Jewish targets.[72] The Jews were initially on the defensive as civil war broke out, but they gradually moved onto the offensive.[73] The Palestinian Arab economy collapsed and 250,000 Palestinian-Arabs fled or were expelled.[74] David Ben-Gurion proclaiming Israeli independence on May 14, 1948, below a portrait of Theodor Herzl
On May 14, 1948, the day before the expiration of the British Mandate, the Jewish Agency proclaimed independence, naming the country Israel.[75] The following day, the armies of four Arab countries —Egypt, Syria, Lebanon and Iraq — attacked Israel, launching the 1948 Arab–Israeli War;[76][77] Saudi Arabia sent a military contingent to operate under Egyptian command; Yemen declared war but did not take military action.[78] After a year of fighting, a ceasefire was declared and temporary borders, known as the Green Line, were established.[79] Jordan annexed what became known as the West Bank and East Jerusalem, and Egypt took control of the Gaza Strip. Over 700,000 Palestinians were expelled or fled from Israel during the conflict. Israel was accepted as a member of the United Nations by majority vote on May 11, 1949.[80] In the early years of the state, the Labor Zionist movement led by Prime Minister David Ben-Gurion dominated Israeli politics.[81][82] These years were marked by an influx of Holocaust survivors and Jews from Arab lands, many of whom faced persecution in and expulsion from their original countries.[83] Consequently, the population of Israel rose from 800,000 to two million between 1948 and 1958.[84] Some arrived as refugees with no possessions and were housed in temporary camps known as ma’abarot; by 1952, over 200,000 immigrants were living in these tent cities.[85] The need to solve the crisis led Ben-Gurion to sign a reparations agreement with West Germany that triggered mass protests by Jews angered at the idea that Israel could accept monetary compensation for the Holocaust.[86] In the 1950s, Israel was frequently attacked by Palestinian fedayeen, mainly from the Egyptian-occupied Gaza Strip.[87] In 1950 Egypt closed the Suez Canal to Israel. There was mounting tension and a number of armed clashes took place along all of Israel’s borders. In 1956, Israel joined a secret alliance with Great Britain and France aimed at regaining control of the Suez Canal, which the Egyptians had nationalized (see the Suez Crisis). Israel overran the Sinai Peninsula but was soon pressured to withdraw by the United Nations in return for guarantees of Israeli shipping rights in the Red Sea and the Canal.[88][89]In the early 1960s, Israel captured Nazi war criminal Adolf Eichmann in Argentina and brought him to back to Israel for trial.[90] The trial had a major impact on public awareness of the Holocaust,[91] but Eichmann remains the only person ever to be executed by order of an Israeli court.[92]”

Worshipping at the Altar of Selfishness and Hatred
By John R Hernandez on Tuesday, July 5, 2011 at 9:52pm
But the GREATEST of these is Love; embedded attributes of human emotions gone awry
Written and Edited by John R. Hernandez, Jr. 7/11 © http://www.newdawnmedia.wordpress.com http://www.newdawncommnuications.blogspot.com
Hate forces us to discard the unwanted; too lazy walk down to the Goodwill or Salvation Army Box, to offer it to our neighbors or the strangers down the road, no, it’s much easier to just throw it all away; so no one can get to it. This is how we treat our relationships; we use them and we squeeze them, till they can’t take it no more or until we’re sick and tired; and then we dump them out into the streets for someone else to pick them up and do worst things to them. Repeating the circle of hate over and over again. We love our children or so we pretend, until no one is around and then we light the cigarette, we pop the beer bottle open and kick back on the couch to watch the latest sports channel or soap opera ignoring, their solitude and pain. We plan and scheme our way out of everything; too sick to make it to church for the sixth time in a row, to tired to look in on the elderly neighbor, too arrogant to pitch in and help with the dishes; or show someone the affection they so desperately need and deserve. Blindly following the norms dictated to us by a pretentious and shallow consumer society; our nails must be done exactly like they do it in that fashion mag, our suits must be tailored to the right fit we see in the fashion shows, how we talk and how we walk, who we choose as friends and who we choose to ignore; what school we attend, the latest tattoo, the latest fad. After all it tells them who we are on the outside. But, is that really who we are on the inside? Behind it all; lay the simmering embers of a burning anger, an incomplete desire to want to let go; a compulsion to attain, to get more, to be the best, to stand above the crowd, to give ground to no one; to nurture and feed the hate!

In Support of Non-Custodial Fathers!!! God Bless All of You and Happy Fourth of July 2011!!!
by John R Hernandez on Monday, July 4, 2011 at 6:39pm
To All CRFN Members,
In reply to the rhetoric that went for supporting the rights of fathers
It would of been a better message if it would have included the guarantee that one day Non-Custodial Fathers will get all the rights they deserve -which- for far too long have been denied to them by the oppressive practice of Parental Alienation; both from custodial parents -as well as- under the Corrupt American Family Court System! But, that’s right-yes- Non-Custodial Fathers don’t have big pockets; since the majority of them are paying through the ying-yang -to warrant- any support from today’s so-called crusaders for family…!

Remember Your First Love; Whose God is he?
By John R. Hernandez, Jr. 6/11 © http://www.newdawnmedia.wordpress.com http://www.newdawncommunications.blogspot.com
As I look around this world I see so much hatred, scoffing, and apathy. People living one way on church day and another the rest of the week. I see parents spending little time with their children when they should be there to help them with their homework; making sure it gets done right the first time. Helping them to become productive citizens. Helping them to learn to play and instrument or become better linguists. I see children ignoring the needs of their parents now that they are grown and on their own. Because, the parents that helped to raise them are way too easily abandoned and caged in private care facilities; forgotten to their eyes. I hear the cries of those who live in homeless shelters with no hope; but, to just get through another night in what seems more like a living hell to them. I see warriors come back home broken and crippled, living desperate lives, shunned from the public eye and left to wallow in the muck and mire of confusion and pain. I see the eyes of mothers abandoned, forced to seek out an existence; when we should be there. We turn our faces and walk away. How much pain and terror must we face before our hearts break from the suffering and torment of this human family? We are called to recognize and comfort the afflicted, the aggrieved, those who suffer persecution and those who as a result natural phenomenon or as a result of human interaction; human failure, or mechanical error are heart broken. Inadvertent, accidents happen all the time. But, when we as a church; as those called out by Almighty God to come together and pray for those in the congregation, to admonish (to rebuke, to educate the flock in God’s way’s, to instruct, to edify, to lift up, to feed the hungry, to open the eyes of those blindly living their lives..). It is because of these, that his great love is poured out unto us as a congregation and those we send out. That is our great commission, our first love, as brothers and sisters in faith. But, when we begin to go out on our own and put God sort of in a box and sit ourselves up high and pretend we are in control. This is a great mistake! That many churches make. When Christ speaks to the church at Ephesus he castigates it for its failure to recognize who is in control and the reason why they took the oath of Faith. And the admonition goes to all congregants; because it may sound strange to you but all of us in the body are stewards of that body and partakers of the responsibility to edify and to rebuke as necessary each and every member –regardless- of position or tile. Whenever we ignore the needs of those less fortunate we ignore the love of God. Whenever, we pretend the poor around us don’t exist, we deny the love of God exists. Whenever we fail to offer a helping hand to someone we otherwise would rather not bother with, we act as if the love of God didn’t exist in us. This is what Christ is saying to Ephesus, you have lost your first love. Often times we replace that Love we the love for fornication, for alcohol, for gambling, for money, for everything that our weak and helpless flesh wrongfully allows. “Don’t forget” Jesus says to us! And remember that if Jesus be with us who can be against us! For we are more than conquerors in Christ who strengthens us. There are some that are called to comfort and instruct, others to edify and build, some to be disciples, others deacons, some to the mission fields of life; But all of us are called equally for one purpose as was Ephesus. To bring the love and joy of our faith and our way of life to those whose lives have been shattered; to help free the captives (addicted), bring site to the blind (in faith) and to proclaim the coming day of our Lord and Savior (His return to Rule and to Judge). Some people treat God as if he was one of their buddies. Like the friend at work, or the one they hunt with or just anybody. Some people fail to recognize who they are addressing. Who they are talking to and before whose presence they stand. The biggest mistake the church at Ephesus made and the main reason Christ himself had to have a face to face with them was and is because they began to take God for granted! Of course we all have read the Bible; we all know by the countless examples of fire and brimstone God raising his hand and slaughtering Israel’s enemies by the millions. And we also have first and second hand accounts of the times Almighty God had to step in and rebuke sinners. He even tearfully at times after long lamentations and great callings; had to punish and even exterminate many Jews. Convicting them of worshipping idols; of not following his rules of engagement, of becoming haughty and arrogant and -oh yes- for that seemingly innocent offense of taking him for granted. We are not forced to be perfect but we are asked to cleanse our minds, wash our garments clean; in order that we may present ourselves a just and perfect sacrifice. Go out into the world and make disciples of men. Why? Because, we live in a lost and dying world. Behold I stand and knock, if anyone should listen and open unto me I will come in and sit with him and fellowship with him or her or them and teach them my ways. I am the way the truth and the life; no one come to the father but through me. He who believes in me I will give him to drink from the rivers of living water. For the day will come that you will not worship in flesh but in spirit and in truth; and he will wipe away every tear from their eyes, and take away all of their sorrows and be their God.
Have a Blessed Day!

In Support of Civil Rights for All Non-Custodial Fathers
Preamble to the US Constitution; We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America.
Universal DECLARATION OF Human Rights “Everyone has the right to freedom of opinion and expression; this right includes freedom to hold opinions without interference and to seek, receive and impart information and ideas through any media and regardless of frontiers.”
Today freedom of speech, or the freedom of expression, is recognized in international and regional human rights law. The right is enshrined in Article 19 of the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights, Article 10 of the European Convention on Human Rights, Article 13 of the American Convention on Human Rights and Article 9 of the African Charter on Human and Peoples’ Rights.[8] Based on John Milton‘s arguments, freedom of speech is understood as a multi-faceted right that includes not only the right to express, or disseminate, information and ideas, but three further distinct aspects: • the right to seek information and ideas; • the right to receive information and ideas; • the right to impart information and ideas.[8]

The Oppression of Parental Alienation and the Negatively Biased Anti-Fatherhood Family Court System are the Reasons Why Some Men Just Give Up!
By John R. Hernandez, Jr. 7/11 (c) http://www.newdawnmedia.wordpress.com http://www.newdawncommunications.blogspot.com
“First they threw out prayer in schools along with the bible, then they threw out the pledge of allegiance, then they came for our unborn and threw them into waste receptacles like yesterday’s garbage, then they created a massive bureaucratic family court system -which- singlehandedly guarantees to all states and to all women a nice fat check for every man they file a lawsuit of child support on; ultimately helping to place the final wedge between fathers and their children”
John R Hernandez, Jr.
Those who know of me, know how much I love my children and they sure dang know what hell I have been put through by the system and the two mothers of my children. We are all human beings and we all make mistakes. I’ve made mine; God knows I made two big mistakes with those two. But, I have never brought shame or hurt to any one of them or to their door. I have walked away, lived my life and left people alone to sort out their own misery and mistakes. I have paid dearly for only wanting one thing. To have what every decent sane man should dream of and want. God knows I try to be a good Christian as far as patience will allow. I did my best with my oldest child, though she grew up in a single family home; I spent most of my time there playing with her, taking her to the park, the zoo, the amusement parks, the sea shore; in effect I was there and I saw her grow up and shared greatly in her life. Her mother never pushed me away or alienated me from her. And she made every effort to come with her and visit and if I wasn’t there I knew there would be a note on my door letting me know she came by. I would have to say we had a good relationship. Because, I allowed it to be for 15 years of Katie’s life. I was there! I contributed what I could. I paid my support and still spent out of the other pocket on my daughter and if the mother needed something I did my best to get it for her. Even though I knew deep inside I had been railroaded by the family court system. I tried to live a clean life and made sure to never let my daughter see me with another woman. So she would never have to hear the words “your dad is a woman chaser”. I wanted her to remember me in a good way as a good father, a good example in her life. Just as I remember days like this one. It was after working the all night shift I went over to her and her mom’s home. I’d fallen asleep on the couch for an hour or so it was about 8:am and I jumped up. Because, this was her first day of kindergarten and I knew I had to be there. Her mother and I walked her to the school bus stop. I helped her get on the bus, and just as she got to the top of the stairs on that bus she did a 160 degree circle and said to me, “Wrong bus!”. My heart fell somewhere between my stomach I know not where. It was all I could do to hold the lump in my throat and I said, “No baby this is the right bus, here let me introduce you to your new bus friend” and she said hello to the other girl sitting there by herself and sat next to her and they smiled at each other. I said, “bye-bye I’ll see you later baby”. The bus rolled on down the road as I held the tears as best I could. Her mom smiled and we walked away with another precious memory of our little girl’s first experience on her first day of Kindergarten. After that first day at school I would take her to school or her mom would. And we both would go visit and let her know we loved her and wanted to be near her; as she learned to get used to school life. I used to love to buy her things with what little I had. I remember she would love to model for me and I would encourage her. I got a picture of her modeling for me where she looked like both Little Bo Beep and Shirley Temple in it. I remember when I ordered the cardboard doll house for her. I thought to myself it wasn’t wood but she might like it just the same because somewhere I saw a part of me in her. Well, the day came and I brought the package over to her and we both put it together. She was tickled pink! She loved her doll house even though it was cardboard. It still meant the world to her and she had many months and years of fun with it and all the toys. I and her mother and grandmother got for her to go along with her special doll house. Another memory was that I used to love taking her to buy toys and things and take drives and one day while on a toy drive I stopped at Kay Bee Toys at the Mall. Well, we walked around that store for what seemed like hours me pushing the cart around those aisles of toys and more toys. The cart was full and I stopped by the end of one aisle and had a word with her. It went like this, “Now hon you know we can’t afford all these things so why don’t we pick out a few things we like the most and let’s get out of here” And she said, “Okay daddy” and I followed her as she led me back all around and she would take things out of her cart and putting them back on the shelves. When we finally got to the counter a young woman asked, “Will that be all?” And out of nowhere Katie pulled a sock full of change out of her little pocketbook and swung it on the counter and asked the cashier, “Will this be enough?” It was one of those many moments again when my heart fell back between my stomach somewhere as the lump in my throat grew heavy. One of these days I’ll try and post some of the pictures of Katie and I back when we were us.
An Informed Decision Based on the Facts and Not One Skewed by Bias Makes for a Better Argument: A Rebuttal to the President’s Father’s Day Message and My Suggestions
By John R. Hernandez, Jr. 6/11 © http://www.newdawnmedia,wordpress.com http://www.newdawncommunications.blogspot.com
Our US Constitution Guarantees us the Right to Speak Out Mr. President; you need to get the facts straight before you speak out on a subject you obviously know little about. I mean you know about raising your children and it’s obvious we both come from single parent homes. But I have look at my father and his gift of life to me as a sacred one. Yes, you know how to be -as you put it- a good father to your children. But, you have no idea why some men cannot be in their father’s lives. That is an issue that must be taken on a case- by- case- basis. Once all the facts are gathered then you can make informed statements-based- on the information before you –about- certain groups or members of certain groups -in this case- fathers. The generalized statement that fathers may be bad because they are absent from their children’s lives is a blank statement to deter attention from the real facts that need your further attention. Who is it that you don’t want to rock their boat? Sometimes in leadership one has to rock someone’s boat to get them to take a close look at their actions and practices and see if they need to be changed based on the facts presented. To insinuate that men that are absent from their children’s lives are “bad men” is an insult to people you have no facts about. If a man is not in his children’s lives it can only be for three reasons. He can’t be, he doesn’t want to be or he is being alienated from his children. But to make rash statements without first knowing the real facts of a situation is to put a further wedge between men -that you have no factual knowledge about- and a society who for far too long has been made to think that non-custodial fathers or absent fathers have done something wrong. And then you ask men to step up and be good fathers as if a man that is not in his child’s life is a bad man -without knowing- the facts of the case. I don’t know of any man that in his heart does not love his child. But, to make rash statements without facts is to malign people you don’t know anything about. First, investigate the situation before you open you jump to conclusions or to offer solutions. First, get some information on -Parental Alienation- which some parents but, mostly non-custodial fathers -in particular- have had to be subjected to. Because, it’s one of the main reasons –many- fathers cannot be in their children’s lives. Parental alienation doesn’t just have to come from the mother, it can come from any authority figure in that child’s life-that is suppressing- a fathers ability to spend time with that child. Go to-angiemedia.com- and get the facts before you make a statement that will appear as a broad or general judgment on people you don’t know. Go to -parentalrights.org- and get the facts. Millions of men out there deal with issues concerning Visitation, Equal Parenting, Joint Custody and many others with the mothers of their children. Some men are subjected to situations when dealing with their ex’s that exhibit patterns of anti -social behavior and which have been clinically associated to symptoms of Parental Alienation. Many men every day are trying to get the word out that this nation’s family court system needs to be reformed. It needs a broader look into it’s practices towards non-custodial fathers. Many men out there are suffering day by day the emotional stress of being alienated from their children, they are helpless. Because, the majority of the courts ignore their issues. Directly suppressing them from having the kind of relationship they need and want to have with their children. There are many valid organizations out there that are speaking out against -a disease- that is way too prevalent -today- within the realm of father’s and children’s relationships. Some of these organizations are championing causes like family court reform and equal parenting. But I believe they need to go a step further and fight for stricter accountability of funds men must pay to the custodial parent in order to get a better picture of where the money is going, and I believe also that a routine drug test (within reason of course) should be implemented to all if not most custodial parents -in most if not all- cases. Along with the creation of a system to help parents deal with their visitation and custody matters without the need to deride or ridicule men in family courts! I believe in order to make informed decisions that pretend to support the best interest of children one needs to get the facts before generalizing men’s characters! Offering a pass to a zoo or a ticket to an amusement park; falls short of helping to deal with the major problems facing men and women today when it comes to their children. When for far too many the problem has been shown to be -alienation and the oppression- inflicted upon them by a rouge family court system. Men are not bad fathers because they are not spending time with their children; when there are cases out there totally the opposite of what you may have in mind. My concern for -the past 30 years- has been to find someone, who will listen, -someone- with an open intellect and not one whose priorities are skewed -clouded -by biased decisions others have or may have impressed upon that individual. I wanted to find someone that would make the right decisions on the issues both parents are facing without having to make them based on some of the facts or not all of the facts presented. And certainly I did not want to find someone whose ideals and values where colored by the ideals and values of those around him or her. Who, obviously are not acting in the best interest of resolving the issue before them based on the weight of the facts and preponderance of the evidence set presented. To make decisions that affect the lives of millions of children and their fathers –simply- because you want to appease those under you is the opposite of what I was looking for. I wanted someone who was willing to stand up above the crowd and rule justly and righteously and with reason.
I wanted someone that would stand -separate and apart- and make decisions based on the facts and not to just tow the line and follow the rest of the crowd he belongs to. A president or general or king must not let those around him sway his decisions. This is the way he will show to the people that he is a -just and fair leader- who is willing to act in the best interest of the people. And not the special interests of a particular court or organization or people whose facts are skewed and biased.
Excerpt from,
“The Demonization of Fatherhood and Alienation from Parenting; One Fathers Struggle to Change a Broken System”
By John R. Hernandez, Jr. © 2008
I felt blessed to be able to be there in the early years of Katie’s life; when she first stepped onto her school bus; being able to visit her at kindergarten and see the look in her eyes as she proudly danced around I’ll never forget the joy of sharing her smile, so proud to have her daddy by her side. I remember working three jobs just trying to make ends meet as a visiting part time daddy. Thankful that her mom was not so vindictive after suing me for child support to not alienate me from her. It hurt that my name was not on her school papers or on her birth certificate. That I was just some non-custodial father struggling to turn his life around, shunned by those around me. It tortured me knowing we would never be a real family; you know that type where both parents live together happily ever after. I remember the church chorus singing a lovely hymn and suddenly she just started singing, “Old McDonald had a farm…” The days we would spend at the zoo, by the river, chasing the amusement parks, down the shore or just visiting with her. That first Christmas tree and how she got all wound up around the tree ornaments and that look on her face when I told her she couldn’t see her toys till Christmas day. I remember how she would model for me all the pretty dresses I would get for her; all the surprises she would have for me waiting whenever I would visit; how she would have her pet gerbil do tricks for me and the day at the toy store as I asked the cashier how much was the toys I was about to buy her and how Katie popped out a sock full of change and asked, “Is this enough?”
And that’s my Father’s DAY Message!!

Faith and Values; If You Believe, One Single Tear
The Miracle of Golgotha Hill; One Single Tear
By John R. Hernandez, Jr. 6/11 © http://www.newdawnmedia.wordpress.com http://www.newdawncommunications.blogspot.com
It was difficult for a poor child to grow up in such conditions, blind in one eye, after being beaten by street peddlers; he’d walked with a limp since birth. The others shunned him, they laughed at him and made jokes; He often could be seen begging by the peddler’s stands. Unable to walk fast or far he drew his sustenance from what was thrown out at the end of the day. This day he’d hurried home to his mom who was a sickly older woman. Whose husband had died trying to keep the Roman vandals from destroying what was left of the altar of God during the fire at the Temple. That night he found his mother dead and being an only son he knew he was now truly alone in the world. He sat by her side, for hours, staring into her eyes; asking why? He’d heard of a man carpenter named Jesus who healed the sick and brought sight to the blind and raised the dead; he wondered if this Jesus could bring his mother back? Could he do what they all say? Would he heal me too? I am sick and alone now and so hungry and my father and mom are gone. And I’d brought her these things so she could eat and get strong. Why God Jehovah have you done this to me, he cried? Suddenly, the Roman soldiers horses could be heard rushing through the square above the hill called Golgotha, the crowds were restless, and screams and the sounds of whipping could be heard inside his little hut of straw, where the little beggar boy sat beside his mother’s bed. He heard someone call out to him from a distance a voice he thought he knew, calling to him saying, “If you believe that Jesus is my Son with all your heart and all your soul and your entire mind then you will be saved.” Silence returned for a moment as he trembled in fear. But, there again the noise in the streets grew stronger as the procession hurried by. The cries from the streets grew louder and the crowd grew in numbers. He could hear the horse’s hoofs and the crackling of whips, and then he laid his head by his mother’s side and fell asleep. It was the middle of the afternoon and he awoke, he nudged his mother and placed her things beside her side, he pulled her covers tighter as he kissed her cheeks. He remembered having a dream and being called from a distance and he knew he had to find out why. Outside it was dark and the sun was not shining down unto the streets as he made his way up to Golgotha Hill. As he approached he saw a crowd of soldiers laying on the ground holding their faces, and some women crying and praising God. And as he looked up he saw a wooden cross before him and a man hung there, his head bowed down, nails piercing his hands and feet and blood oozing down. He saw the scars the soldiers inflicted upon him and he remembered the dream and the face of that man he thought he’d known who hung there suspended between earth and heaven. It was Jesus and he slowly began to open his eyes, and he looked at the little crippled boy standing there with tears in his eyes and just as he took his last breath he looked at the little boy and smiled at him and a tear pierced his eye lids. And the little boy stretched out his hands and Christ’s tears touched his hands and the little boy fell to his feet and the women weeping came to him and picked him up and he stood up straight and he wanted to cry from the joy of disbelief and the miracle of saving faith. He wanted to climb that cross and bring Jesus down. Because, somehow he knew that, that man up on that cross had answered his prayers. He’d answered his hopes and dreams all at once, with one single tear. And just as he started to climb that cross, he heard a voice from the distance saying, My child, you get down from there, as he slipped and fell backwards, he turned and looked back down the hill. And there through the darkness and the strange fog he saw the image of his mother running up Golgotha Hill, calling out to him.

“If I Could Believe?”
By John R. Hernandez, Jr. 6/11 (c) http://www.newdawnmedia.wordpress.com http://www.newdawncommunications.blogspot.com
If I could believe in that look in your eyes, once again, like I’ve done so many times before. Like when you walked in and out that door; like when you said, “I am Sorry I Hurt You baby”. Like when you swore you’d never do it again just as I gave back in. Like when you touched me and held me close or when you’d call in the middle of the night crying your heart out. Pretending you meant every word you’d swear to me. If only I could believe?

Come Let’s Make Jobs for All Americans
By John R Hernandez on Wednesday, June 29, 2011 at 1:13pm
In My Opinion Unions Should Invest In All Unemployed Americans; After All Isn’t That What The Word “LABOR” Stands For?
By John R Hernandez, Jr. http://www.newdawnmedia.wordpress.com http://www.newdawncommunications.blogspot.com
Why don’t the Unions take that _Ten Billion_ they are planning to invest in retrofitting some commercial buildings and use it to help get people back to work? Not just the Union workers but those who have lost their jobs in semi and unskilled non-union positions!!!!!!! How much of that Ten Billion Union Dues money is going to help break the strangle hold of poverty on this nation? How much of that Ten Billion is going to go for job training of high school drop outs? How much of that Ten Billion is going to go to help get the non-union American Worker back on his feet and help to put food on his families’ table or help pay for his health care or pay the rent? I support the Unions but I don’t support the arrogant use of Union Due’s Money to help the few while there are millions of unemployed Americans out there that need help. Why don’t they take some of that money and use it to make sure that all US Companies are utilizing the best practices to help hire all unemployed Americans and not utilizing Federal Job Creation Credits to hire only members of groups that are labeled “Poverty Affected Individuals”. In my opinion the Long Term Unemployed are Poverty Affected Individuals -therefore- Unions and the Federal Government should be making sure that the Workforce Initiates Programs includes all American workers -within their guidelines- and rules and not just a few. Read more about this by going to the petition page below -and signing this petition- to help get all long term unemployed Americans back to work now! Why should Daddy and or Mommy have to go home again and again and tell their child, “No honey the plant down the road said they are not doing any hiring today”?
BELOW ARE COMMENTS I HAVE MADE ON FACEBOOK AND OTHER PLACES ABOUT ISSUES…
ON THE ANTHONY CASE DECISION
Brittany you are right 110% for feeling angry over what appears to be an egregious distortion of justice -for this child- of God whose life was taken at such an early age and who won’t get to run around and smile -ever again- like other children -will- the rest of their earthly lives. God is a loving and forgiving God, but God also says that even if you look with hate at your brethren -that- you have committed murder. God’s aim is that we learn to get along, to tow the line and not kill ourselves over petty issues; when there is so much to do right here in his kingdom. Just so you know; this child’s life was not a petty issue and neither were the 30 million aborted children’s lives. But, we as humans are admonished to look into our own souls to seek out our own iniquities and mistakes and wrongs against one another and then even against our own flesh and ask ourselves, “Are we able to forgive as he forgave?” Who do we blame when we look at the tragic epidemic of teenage suicide across this nation and the world. When I look at it from the legal point of view I look at facts presented, but when I look at it with God’s eyes it may often lead to opposite directions -just because- His- authority is absolute. Learn to temper your pain with the facts that nothing escapes the hand of Almighty God -not even- in this case; his will be done even when we may not agree with God’s outcome. But know this that hate and injustice all pay the price in time in God’s eyes.
ON THE JOURNALIST WHO OUTTED HIMSELF THAT HE IS AN ILLEGAL ALIEN
He has been impersonating a citizen. Other people that come here to be citizens go through a lot of hard work to get to be citizens. To allow him to stay is to say that we in the Journalism Field – don’t have any- professional standards!!! This man violated all ethical standards when circumvented all legal avenues for the glorification of doing what he likes. He and all others like him need to be made to know that the law is the law. What if he stood up and said that he was a spy or a terrorist?? When someone crawls under the ground to get into the USA- it’s one thing- and when someone lies his way into a job by faking his -citizenship- in my opinion it should be a worst CRIME!! Because, its called fraud! Journalism like any other profession should be held to the same standards. Lying about certain things to get a job is one thing. People lie all the time to get a job, to get a date, to get a loan, etc. But lying about your citizenship and how you got into this country takes lying to a much higher level! There’s a lot more to be said about this issue.
MY THOUGHTS ON INDIGENOUS AMERICANS
I have deep love for American indigenous people and in fact for all worldwide indigenous peoples. I believe what America did to the indigenous populations is wrong, but I know that some reparations have been made and the billions pumped into these communities prove this. I don’t agree with how some Indian Reservations Casinos are run and the way many indigenous peoples are forced to live. Somehow my mind tells me there is some imbalance there that needs to be scrutinized further. I believe further that as nations and peoples begin to outgrow and become assimilated into a society -it becomes- the responsibility of that specific society of elders and leaders to do what is in the best interest of that individual segment of the population -of- that nation or country. You can’t turn around 200 hundred years later and plead ignorance when your asked what have you done to help your community evolve from that era to this era?
ON IMMIGRATION ISSUES
What gets me is how some people after being here for 20 or more years and getting to be extremely successful can have the audacity to stand up and say, “yeh, well they brought me here when I was a child so what; I still have not applied for citizenship- because- I have questions about this country -I don’t like- or agree with- so- I prefer to not file?” Millions of illegal aliens live with no intentions whatsoever of ever becoming legal residents. Many are very wealthy and much of what they make goes back over there to fuel that economy instead of this one. Despicable!
Brutal Rape and Murder!! This should be a No Brainer for the jury!! But, I have seen people walk for worst than this. Look at the outcome of the Anthony Trial! Our criminal justice system is irreparably flawed. Money and public opinion have a scary way of skewing the outcome of jury trials.
IMMIGRATION ISSUES CONTINUED;
In case you hadn’t noticed Bryan I am Latino, I know firsthand what hatred and injustice is all about as well I am sure as anyone who comes to this nation to make a better life. But I don’t agree that people should crash their way into this nation and get the benefits that other real citizens who have worked hard all their lives should get. But, there is a difference between us and them; and that difference is that we are certified legal citizens and they are not. I am not against people applying for citizenship -the legal way- and I do believe that more needs to be done to reform the immigration laws to expand and include those who wish to come here and become citizens and productive members of this society. As for how long I have been watching -I can only tell you- that I have been watching and learning all my life. And before you start telling me about your citizenship let me inform you that many of the folks we are talking about here; are the children and grandchildren of the folks that we Americans stole not only their lands from but their dignity from. You remember American History I and II?
ON ABORTION AND CHILDHOOD DECEASES
Like an unborn child being torn apart by the hands of hatred so the lives of our most fragile senior’s hearts are torn apart from the torment of abandonment. How could there be such little love in a world spawned from love?
Lord don’t ever let me turn my face from all the pain and suffering in the world; I want to never forget the look in your eyes when you saw your baby boy hanging on that cross….JRH. Tonight while we are enjoying the pleasures of our lusts; someone out there will be praying and crying for the ones eating out of dumpsters across this nation and the world! Thanking you could never diminish the prolonged pain of compassion; nevertheless if I did not thank you; only the echoes of my cries would be heard from inside…JRH711ndmh!
On learning to loose unnecessary weight:
I usually charge thousands for my advice but for you right here a trinket worth much more…..slow yourself down…breathe and push away the stress….take a look inside and with every day that passes by; develop your own way of controlling compulsive behaviors; the by-products of interactions and reactions to the world around you….!
Thanking you could never diminish the prolonged pain of compassion; nevertheless if I did not thank you; only the echoes of my cries would be heard from inside…JRH711ndmh!

“Saturday”
Written and Edited by John R. Hernandez, Jr. http://www.newdawnmedia.wordpress.com http://www.newdawncommunications.com
My Saturday is to wake up early to listen to the dogs barking at prowlers maybe other cats or rabbits that wander in the early day past them and they don’t like intruders in their space…I begin to think about life, about tomorrow, about living….I listen to the sermons from the pastors Adrian Rogers, David Jeremiah, Robi Zechariahs and others I love; as I think about things and read what I can on the net…as the day progresses I take a look outside I bring some water to the pepper plants and the oregano plant and the others I check up on…then I see a butterfly as I admire the sunflowers parching in the early sun she is whittling on top of the sunflower doing her work while dragonflies and bees and other flying insects try to bother her; she is patient at her job and I run to get the camera to capture this moment. But, I have only two pictures left in the camera and the wind and I cannot get to make up which one will win this tug of war as the wonder of it all unfolds and if it will come out okay as I snap the trigger and pause and listen as the camera makes its return to empty; automatically re-rolling the film inside I walk away as the sound of an airplane too far up in the sky to see flies by. I wonder why some here never plant anything, they live without seeing or feeling nature close to their hearts like it all is so taken for granted; so plain to them so last night’s television movie or program; so what the taste of the dinner left in their minds, so like how hard it is to change the way they are; the way so like what they believe life has made of them.

Hoarding is Alive and Well in Today’s Corporate World
Written and Edited by John R. Hernandez, Jr. © 7/2011 http://www.newdawnmedia.wordpress.com http://www.newdawncommnucations.blogspot.com
With the latest July-2011 -jobs update- spelling doom and gloom for the 15 million and more unemployed; Corporate America has just fired another salvo at the US Labor Department by sending thousands more back out unto the unemployment lines.
Can you be defined as; an older American, handicapped, poor and Latino or Black or any number of other persons -who fall- or have fallen- below the poverty line; an ex-felon or someone with a criminal record, or just simply a member of the displaced long-term unemployed? If you said “yes” to any or a combination of any of the above, your chances of finding and securing a job are miserably minute. Why? As in Hitler’s era “undesirables” where those type-cast as a dispensable/expendable and as it reads on dictionary.reference.com the definition for dispensable is “–adjective 1. Capable of being dispensed with or done without; not necessary or essential. 2.) Capable of being dispensed or administered.” It has come to my attention that hoarding did not go out with the last Neanderthal Ice Age or neither has its popularity been diminished by the “Hoarders” show over satellite networks. No, my friends- the practice of hoarding is still alive and well across the globe. But, in my opinion the most hideous of places Hoarding is alive and growing is in Corporate America, –as-well-as-anywhere the possibility of a job will exchange hands between an employer or its agents and any possible prospect. Today, employers and their agents hoard jobs!! The reasons why they do this despicable act or acts is for the same reasons a child hoards candy or toys or anything near them. Hoarding is another way of exercising one’s power around their subordinates or peers. One barters this power by way of exchanging favors such as for admiration, status imaging, prowess, click building and maintenance as well as keeping out certain members of societal groups, etc.,,,! In some circles hoarding is big business and profitable for certain members of a specific race. Take for example; why are so many firemen and police “public servants” in the upper US East Coast members of a specific ethnic group? When one looks at the statistics one -like me- walks away scratching his head. Even in the face of all the laws that say that this should not be happening, it is -right before- our eyes. That is hoarding! There are well over 15 million Americans today unemployed and –because- I have brought this issue up -I will be demonized. Not for speaking the truth –but- for not keeping my mouth shut and simply finding some –whole- somewhere unheard and unseen. Going against the grain has its pitfalls -in this society- and some have been buried like out in the middle of some landfill. Never the less, hoarding will continue unabated in Corporate America -until- those behind the walls of the US Labor Department decide to get up off their over- paid tushes and do something about it.
Your tireless unpaid Societal Servant,

Let’s all sign this petition; so that we can help a few Americans get a real job! Shall We?
http://www.change.org/petitions/get-america-working-again-with-my-new-nationwide-program
OVERVIEW OF MY PETITION ON CHANGE.ORG
By John R. Hernandez, Jr. © 2011-NDMH
Get America Working Again With My New Nationwide Program
My new program is important because nothing is getting done to help get a greater number of the 15 to 20 million people back to work. Corporations have become very skilled at figuring out ways to get more done with less. Because of the lucrative rewards of Workforce Initiatives via Job Credits; many companies have adopted unspoken rules and practices of separating the hiring pool and favoring TANF recipients and those on public assistance over others who are searching for work but don’t meet the Workforce Guidelines. By limiting the workforce to a certain segment of the population; this would benefit many corporations scavenging for job credits which I feel is borderline discrimination. Furthermore, this only helps to isolate available individuals seeking employment and forces them back to the unemployment lines. The states are doing very little to help get the long term unemployed back to work when they are not scrutinizing the process of hiring. Fifteen Million unemployed tells me there is something wrong here that needs to get fixed quick and forcing capable people back out on the streets while favoring others because that helps to line your pockets, is shameful and unfair. Outsourcing jobs has practically destroyed the semi skilled to skilled positions out there, while streamlining work details has affected the overall total makeup of most companies. Farming out -hiring processes- to temporary staffing agencies in order to transfer most of the payroll and general benefit responsibilities; tells me that corporations are still up to their old tricks. They are battening down the hatches and turning the American Workforce into another disposable commodity! In a society where more and more pressure is being placed on the few members of the workforce not affected by permanent layoffs or cut backs.
THE NUTS AND BOLTS OF MY NEW NATIONWIDE PROGRAM:
A Petition in Support of a Two Part Referendum: PART I: To Make States Accountable to Create Jobs Based on their Number of Unemployed Individuals Residents. PART II: In Order to Restore Our Economic Engine and Thereby Restore the Lives of 15 Million or More Unemployed Americans this Referendum Must Require Provisions for the Following to be Included as Guarantees to Insure the Success of this Effort.
By John R. Hernandez, Jr. © 6/11 http://www.newdawncommunications.blogspot.com http://www.newdawnmedia.wordpress.com
Statement of Provisions:
When have you heard the feds going after any state because they reneged on their mandatory obligations to create an X number of jobs? What if we could (Provision #1) make them create X number of jobs and base that figure on the rate of unemployed individuals? So that now they have a federally mandated obligation to create jobs in their respective states. But wait it gets better! What if this is tied to another (Provision #2) obligation that would require every state department of labor to audit all their agencies within their state to make sure that all the information they provide to prospective job seekers was up to date, guaranteed reliable and that the jobs they sought out for job seekers were qualified jobs that met these guidelines. Which would guarantee a livable wage, not just based on the states minimum wage criteria -but- based on the particular individuals set of circumstances. For example if you have an individual who was making $2,000 per month but lost their job through no fault of their own? Then, the new guidelines would have to say that a formula based on that persons financial obligations to his family, to the roof over his or her head, to children living outside the home; for which he or she is responsible for providing every day subsistence -to be- counted including all his debts to creditors and any payments he or she is obligated to make. (Provision #3) To guarantee that while they are unemployed and for three years after they are reemployed that no court action can be taken against them for any unpaid fines, unpaid court orders, unpaid tax liens, unpaid backed up child support, unpaid student loans obligations, unpaid traffic fines, unpaid property taxes, unpaid obligations to any loans including interest.
This is a mandate; a referendum to see if it will be possible for the American people to get back on their feet without having to look over their backs just when they finally find work. It gives them piece of mind, and just when you thought it couldn’t get any better. Check this out! (Provision #4) A guarantee that if once they do get a job that satisfies all their necessities and they keep that job for a length of three years without interruption and they abide by all the rules of the prescribed agreement; that a percentage of their fines and debt will be forgiven and some of their debt will be forgiven in its entirety. How does this nation or this government expect to help get America back on its feet and productive (recession) again if all it wants to do is bail out the rich and famous and do nothing to bail out the long term unemployed and hurting. People are cash strapped, about to lose their homes and many already have; to hungry lenders. But if we could put a stop to that and guarantee to the American people that we will draw up a plan to help get them back on their feet and it will start with an agreement of -debt forgiveness- if they abide by all the rules of this agreement and in 36 months or so they can be almost or completely debt free. I imagine that, the small loan you may owe your old alma mater disappeared; because, you abided by the agreement that guaranteed you freedom and your transcripts back to go out and continue your blocked education dreams? Imagine all but a portion of your property taxes disappeared -because- you made the right decision and stuck by the plan. Imagine those huge federal student loan debts reduced so drastically you finally know you can breathe again -because- you followed the agreement guidelines. Imagine all debt gone or almost gone because you finally got an agreement that will guaranteed to bail you out, too; just like the big three and the multi-billion dollar financial institutions got? So what do you think? We got to roll up our sleeves and get 15 million people back on their feet -breathing again- and no care in the world for them. No more looking behind their shoulder, no more changing addresses every time the government or the credit card companies or the banks or any debtors come around with garnishment notices and liens? All gone or almost gone! Give us three years of your life, get through our boot camp Agreement Guidelines and soon you will have the freedom to travel, to invest again, to never again be afraid to open up a bank account and start saving again. Imagine, guaranteed job training in the field d of your choice, guaranteed pay while training that meets or exceeds your wildest expectations (rewards incentives for job training) just follow our guidelines that is all we ask. Give us three years of your time and we will get you back on track. After all the big financial institutions got back on track within 18 months as well as the big three! Why can’t we make that promise to the American people? Wait a minute I think I hear a question from the peanut gallery on the right side of the aisle, yes ok what is it? Oh yes your asking how are we gonna pay for this socialist agenda? Hmm?? Let see, hum well one day at a time! This is an investment in the American people and on this nation’s economy. I think the rich corporations would be glad to pitch in, let’s see, oh yes private philanthropists; J. Paul Getty what did you say you’ll chip in a few hundred billion? My goodness I think that just about will cover it! But if there are any other generous benefactors out there, oh yeah, Donald Trump, glad to make your acquaintance; for once you’re investing in the real apprentices! And oh yeah Iraq, Afghanistan, Pakistan Saudi Arabia, Yemen, and all our friends in the Middle East who have enjoyed the benefits of all our gestures of good will –courtesy- of the US Armed Forces; of course will take your check, oh wait a minute better send it to our Pay Pal account, its quicker! Oh and Canada –yes- I forgot about that small issue of Free Trade; sure will take a check, how much $100.00 Billion -no problem- you can send the rest in quarterly installments to the Peoples National Referendum Headquarters C/O to the officer in charge of the accounts to Restore the Jobs and Lives of 15 Million Americans. But wait, you say you can’t do it? Okay, send him to the back of the line! Back to when we were being held hostage by student loans, revolving unemployment lines AND short term jobs, etc.,!

PETITION LETTER
Get America Working Nationwide Program
Hello,
I just signed the following petition addressed to: President, House of Representatives, Senate, and Corporate America.
NY Get America Working Nationwide Program
My new program is important because nothing is getting done to help get a greater number of the 15 to 20 million people back to work. Corporations have become very skilled at figuring out ways to get more done with less. Because, of the lucrative rewards of Workforce Initiatives via Job Credits many companies have adopted unspoken rules and practices of separating the hiring pool and favoring TANF recipients and those on public assistance over others who are searching for work but don’t meet the Workforce Guidelines. By limiting the workforce to a certain segment of the population; this would benefit many corporations scavenging for job credits which I feel is borderline discrimination. Furthermore, this only helps to isolate available individuals seeking employment and forces them back to the unemployment lines. The states are doing very little to help get the long term back to work when they are not scrutinizing the process of hiring. Fifteen Million unemployed tells me there is something wrong here that needs to get fixed quick and forcing capable people back out on the streets while favoring others because that helps to line your pockets, is shameful and unfair. Outsourcing jobs has practically destroyed the semi skilled to skilled positions out there, while streamlining work details has affected the overall total makeup of most companies. Farming out -hiring processes- to temporary staffing agencies in order to transfer most of the payroll and general benefit responsibilities tells me that corporations are still up to their old tricks. In a society where more and more pressure is being placed on the few members of the workforce not affected by permanent layoffs or cut backs.
Sincerely,
John R. Hernandez, Jr.

If you made it to the bottom of this document you may want to take another closer look at what I already mentioned above as to the why so many millions of Americans with Land and Home Contract Package Deals for purchase of homes have been completely ignored by everyone up on Capitol Hill; during and after all the hearings and hoopla over the mortgage spectacles in the face of this most horrific of recessions. Shameful!!
Our Failure to Help the Less Fortunate Amongst us May be the Saddest Legacy we Leave Behind
Some Factual Data on the Transportation Needs of the Poor and Aging Populations in Rural Areas
Written and Edited by John R. Hernandez, Jr. http://www.newdawnmedia.wordpress.com http://www.newdawncommunications.blogspot.com
Hello everyone, I wanted to thank you all for your help with this petition and I thought I would offer you some scholarly data that might interest you. I have wanted to write about this issue for ever! I can remember putting proposals together as far back as some 15 to 20 years ago; that dealt with any social issue I came across. I have been a victim of transportation problems as I am sure some of you have at one time or another, in your life. The only research I did for this petition was the images that have been embedded in my mind throughout the years. The following data -you will find here- I decided to bring it to your attention –because- I have been concerned about the lack of attention or action this petition has been getting; as well as, I have been concerned about the lack of attention my other petitions have been getting. So, last night on the 17th of July I gathered up some factual data. Hoping, that your friends and family and their friends will see the facts as they have been collected. Although as the authors and researchers suggest that, in this extremely large study, “The aim of this study was to understand rural Black and White older adults’ self-reports of transportation difficulty.” The data collected by these statisticians reveals to us that there is a need for free and expanded transportation services that should be provided for the poor in rural areas and especially to those in the aging populations. Below are sample quotes from different investigators which reveal the negative effects of inadequate transportation services on the poor and elderly in rural areas. If you would like to study this subject further I urge you to visit; “http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2758564/ Transportation Difficulty of Black and White Rural Older Adults Nan Sook Park, Ph.D.,ab Lucinda L. Roff, Ph.D.,ab Fei Sun, Ph.D.,bc Michael W. Parker, Ph.D.,ab David L. Klemmack, Ph.D.,bd Patricia Sawyer, Ph.D.,ef and Richard M. Allman, M.D.efga School of Social Work, The University of Alabamab Center for Mental Health and Aging, The University of Alabamac Department of Social Work, Arizona State University New College Program and Department of Criminal Justice, The University of Alabama The Division of Gerontology, Geriatrics, and Palliative Care, University of Alabama at Birmingham Center for Aging, University of Alabama at Birmingham[,] Birmingham/Atlanta VA Geriatric Research, Education and Clinical Center Corresponding Author: Nan Sook Park, Ph.D., Assistant Professor, School of Social Work, Box 870314, The University of Alabama, Tuscaloosa, Alabama 35487-0314, Phone: (205) 348-4441, Fax: (205) 348-9419, E-mail: npark@bama.ua.edu The author’s analysis reveals that, “Difficulty with transportation in rural settings can result in social isolation and deterioration of quality of life in addition to limited access to services. In emergency circumstances,… transportation difficulty can mean the difference between life and death (Gullette, 2006; Parker et al., 2007).” Furthermore, “Rural residents disproportionately experience transportation difficulty because rural areas are sparsely populated and lack public transportation services (Arcury et al., 2005a, 2005b). Rural elders are subject to higher transportation costs than their urban counterparts because walking and public transportation are typically not feasible options, and their trips are likely to be longer (Rosenbloom, 2004).” And, “Although transportation fundamentally influences access to various services and thus affects quality of life, 40% of theU.S.population in rural areas have no public transportation services available, and 25% have insufficient transportation (Glasgow, 2000a). In rural areas without public transportation, taxi services are rare or likely to be prohibitively expensive. Although some senior centers in rural areas provide van transportation, rural elders’ transportation options are typically limited to walking, bicycling, or using a private vehicle.” In Addition to that the authors of these papers suggest that, “The proportion of older persons who live in rural areas (14.7%) is higher than in metropolitan areas (11.9%) and rural older adults have to travel longer distances than urban older adults to access services and activities (Rosenbloom, 2004). Rural older adults tend to be older, have lower economic status, and be in poorer health than urban older adults (Roff & Klemmack, 2003).”
My Thanks to all scientists and researchers who worked tirelessly on these projects to help with this issue -as I have- with this petition in my own small way -as well as- all of you who have taken the time to sign it and tell everyone you know; the importance of expanding transportation to the rural poor and elderly populations cannot be overlooked any longer. Can you imagine, when I was a small child I remember walking along dilapidated planks of old wood after the monsoon rains just to keep from slipping into the mud holes left behind. In those days the only means of transportation in the poorest of areas were your feet.
Thanks again,

A fellow blogger here, found your site via
BIGACE, and I have a piece of advice: write more. Honestly, you seem like you’re tailoring the whole post around the video clip. It’s clear you know a lot, so
why not use your knowledge to write something more significant and keep the video as
something supplementary (if there at all)?

Hello Webmaster, I noticed that https://newdawnmedia.wordpress.com/2011/10/17/the-abomination-of-desolation-and-the-new-conservative-south/ is ranking pretty low on Google and has a low Google PageRank. Now the Google PageRank is how Google is able to see how relevant your webpage is compared to all the other webpages online, if you cannot rank high at the top of Google, then you will NOT get the traffic you need. Now usually trying to get to the top of Google costs hundreds if not thousands of dollars and very highly optimized targeted marketing campaigns that takes a team of experts months to achieve. However, we can show you how to get to the top of Google with no out of pocket expenses (free traffic), no stupid ninja tricks, no silly mind control techniques, and this will be all white hat with no blackhat software or tactics that could possibly land you on bad terms with Google and put you in the dreaded “Google Sandbox”. We’ll show you how to easily capture all the targeted traffic you need, for free, multiple ways to land fast (not months) first-page rankings in Google and other major search engines (Bing, Yahoo, Ask, etc), even show you strategies on how to earn daily commissions just try Ranking Top of Google, please check out our 5 minute video.
