Alinsky's 1971 book, "Rules for Radicals," is a favorite of the Obamas. Michele Obama quoted it at the Democratic Convention. One Alinsky tactic is to "Pick the target, freeze it, personalize it, and polarize it." That's what the White House did in targeting Rush Limbaugh, Rick Santelli and Jim Cramer. ↗

If you feel your school is failing you, the question is why. Is it a lack of parental involvement, large classes, school violence, poor learning environment? Are there any standards to determine where problems are? Are there tutoring or mentoring programs? If the school is still failing after 3 years then what are your options? ↗

The only thing I really love is Fiji water. That's like the only crazy request - I don't like any other water. ↗

Life is only a long and bitter suicide, and faith alone can transform this suicide into a sacrifice. ↗

You have to sort of see the way that the character behaves, and what the character says and does, and claim it in the same way that you claim anything, really. ↗
