It is sad to say that American Science Fiction has been in a percipitous Decline in the past fifteen years. The United States used to have great writers like Phillip K Dick, Isaac Asimov, Bob Heinlein and Frank Herbert. These writers were genuine visionaries. The same can not be said of the weak imitators who only write third party universe stories. The British are consistently coming out with better SF that what we yanks seem to be creating of late.

AIDS is a Catastrophe
According the UN health fund aids is the greatest natural calamity to strike the world in the past thirty years. It is estimated that 25 million people have died of AIDS. That is more total deaths than all of the fatalities in World War I. It is also estimated that 33 million people are currently living with the disease. Lastly it is estimated that there are seven thousand new infections of HIV every day. The response to treat aids has largely been a political debacle by most standards.

Butcher
The next historical novel that I will write will be called Butcher. It is the story of Ulysses S. Grant told through the eyes of a fictional infantry captain during the last two years of the Civil War. I hope you will enjoy it.

Liberals and Force
It is foolish to even consider that if Barack Obama is elected president that military conflict will dissappear. The liberal left in this country has its own ideas as to how to use American hard power. For one thing they favor an intervention in Darfur. It is both nieve and foolish to think that military conflict will evaporate if Barack Obama and the Democrats win in the fall.

Please Save Free Speech
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi is a supporter and sponsor of the Fairness doctrine. In truth there is nothing fair about it. What this doctrine would do if enacted would muzzle some of her strongest critics. It is clear to me at least that Pelosi stands for free speech for liberals and no one else. The freedom of speech is not privilidge it is an entitlement that is protected in the US Constitution for a specific reseaon. Please help me stop this sham and Farce

the problems with Senator Obama
There are several things wrong with Obama for President. For one thing he has no core beliefs, no fixed ideology and no over all plan for the nation should he get elected in the fall. In short his a substanceless candidate.

the untold story
There is a lot more that we cannot see that is important. Major issues are not being addressed. Currently we are in a vacuum. This is my wish list.
