Space Forum / Space History / February 2004

I am writing to ask for your support in my campaign as a "write in"
candidate for President of the United States.  As an engineer and
published author in several fields, my platform focuses on technical
issues, as you will see at my web site.

The scientific community has wasted over $3 trillion on major projects
that had zero useful results.  Moreover, these same projects were
successfully constructed by other nations - Russia, China, and Europe
- as soon as they were defunded in the U.S.  Moreover, the U.S.
government now won't even fund a defense system against our own
technology that our enemies have pointed right back at us.

It gets worse.  All this while, the nation's public schools have gone
begging for $3 trillion in basic repairs to school buildings to make
classrooms safe.   Moreover, Bush just made permanent a $1 trillion
tax cut to the top 1% of the taxpayers ~ totally ignoring the needs of
the schools, which was documented long ago during the Clinton
Administration.

It gets worse.  President Bush is now trying to enact a national
school voucher system so the wealthy can "afford" to send their kids
to private schools, where their kids won't get Attention Deficit
Disorder from the stale air they are forced to breathe in public
schools.

I also have two free novels you can download, some free software,
radical politcal cartoons and more.
