It's about Trust Stupid.

Leadership is about trust. The BIG, BIG, BIG question for this election is trust. I do believe few people have much trust for either candidate in the 2004 presidential election. Bush has completely fumbled the ball, picked it up, and ran the wrong way on the trust issue.

A little poem I wrote right after 9/11;


On Higher Ground

Bless your father and kiss your sons.
Trade your dimes for a smile from your little ones.
Let the land lie fallow give the servants a rest.
It’s not an inalienable right to be forever blessed.

It can slip from your fingers and tug at your sleeve.
A guilty mind, a beggar’s please
Can haunt your soul and bring you down.
Cause to win a war you must stand
On Higher Ground.

We’ve been taught to listen to both sides of a fight.
It’s never an issue of who’s wrong or who’s right.
“What’s good for you ain’t good for me”
“Live and let live” and “let it be”.

Pimps in the white house and CEOs
Like gangsters running Vegas Casinos
Like assault and battery without the blood
Like an underage runaway strung out on drugs
Like a gold ring in a pigs snout
Like a tree in the forest, a child’s shout
Like labor laws in a far away land
Like a silk dress on your old man
Like a sick priest and an altar boy
To tell a lie and have it then be found
That to win a war you must stand
On Higher Ground.

It's about Trust Stupid!!!!!!
