A ray of hope: The Elders

http://www.theelders.org/

Despite all the ghastliness that is around, human beings are made for goodness. The ones who ought to be held in high regard are not the ones who are militarily powerful, nor even economically prosperous. They are the ones who have a commitment to try and make the world a better place. We – The Elders – will endeavour to support those people and do our best for humanity.
- Desmond Tutu

8. Oh, yeah, that's just what we need
Americans are already too prone to subjugate themselves to authority figures. Cloak it how you will, this is just more of the same bullshit.
