Dear Leaders





¿ Hearts OR Minds ?


  Our World ...

  Is Currently ...

'Mind-Based'


  Our Rulers ...

Rule By Mind

  And Not ...

By Heart


  They Rule ...

By Ideology


--- OR ---


( In The Worst Cases )

  By Their OWN ...

Self-Serving

Hunger

For Wealth

For Power

Or For Glory



  TOO Few ...

Rule

  FOR ... The People ...

  Whom They Have 'BEEN' ...

'APPOINTED'

TO SERVE


  It Is FOR ...

The BENEFIT

OF THEIR PEOPLE

  That They 'Should' ...

Be Ruling


  And To DO THIS ...

  They MUST ...

HOLD

THEIR PEOPLE

¡ IN THEIR HEARTS !


  They MUST ...

FEEL

COMPASSION

For THEIR OWN PEOPLE

  And IDENTIFY ...

With Their Sufferings


  And They MUST FEEL ...

This Compassion

  Not ONLY ...

For The Rich

  Not ONLY ...

For The Powerful

  Not ONLY ...

For Their Supporters

  Not ONLY ...

For Their 'Donors'

  Not ONLY ...

For Their 'Party'

  Not ONLY ...

For Their 'Constituents'


  But For ALL ...

  THE PEOPLE ...

  Born ...

  Within ...

  Their ...

'Realm'




  Dear 'Led' ...


  IF  YOU ...

  Are Blessed...

  To Have Been Born Into ...

A Nation

  That ELECTS ...

  Its Leaders ...


  Then It Is Incumbent Upon ...

--- YOU ---

¡ TO ... VOTE !


  And To VOTE FOR ...

Compassionate

Knowledgeable

Experienced

Just

And NOBLE

Leaders


  And It Is ALSO ...

  Incumbent Upon ...

--- YOU ---

  To ASSURE ...

  That Your Elections ...

  Are Fair ...

  And Equal ...

  And Easily Accessible ...

To ALL Voters

--- NO MATTER ---

  The Voter's Location ...

Race

Religion

Gender

Or 'Party' ... Affiliation



  And IF Your Current ...

  Election Laws ...

  Do NOT Meet ...

  These Very Basic Criteria ...

  Then Stand Up ...

  Speak Out ...

  And PROTEST ...

  If Need Be ...

UNTIL

THEY

¡ ARE !



  And IF Your ...

'Elected' 'Officials' ...

  ARE EVEN NOW ...

  Passing 'Legislation' ...

--- RESTRICTING ---

  Voter Access and Participation ...

--- THEN ---

¡ VOTE THEM OUT !

[ ¡ IF ... You EVEN ... STILL ... CAN ! ]





  But IF YOU ...

  Are Unfortunate Enough ...

  To Have Been Born Into ...

A Nation

  That DOES NOT ...

ELECT

Its 'Leaders'


  In Which Those Leaders ...

'Inherit'

Their 'Leadership'

By Bloodline

Or By 'Party' Affiliation

  Or By The Decree ...

Of The Military

  Or Have ASSUMED Power ...

By Corrupt

Or Unjust Means


--- THEN ---


  It Is Incumbent Upon ...

--- YOU ---

To DEMAND

--- ELECTED ---

¡ LEADERSHIP !




  Dear 'Leaders' ...


  'However' ...

  You May Have 'Managed' ...

To 'Attain'

Your 'Leadership'

  It Is NOT ..

TOO LATE

TO CHANGE

--- HOW ---

YOU LEAD


  You CAN ...

¡ CHANGE ... TODAY !


  You CAN ...

SERVE

YOUR PEOPLE

  And NOT ...

Your Self


  You CAN ...

LEAD

  YOUR PEOPLE ...

  To Safety ...

  To Opportunity ...

  To Fulfillment ...

  To Happiness ...

  To TRUTH ...

¡ WITH ... COMPASSION !


  You CAN ...

HELP

  YOUR PEOPLE ...

  By Reducing Selfishness ...

And Corruption

Within Your Ranks

  And By Distributing ...

Those Funds

Thus Freed

  To The BENEFIT ...

  Of ALL ...

¡ OF YOUR PEOPLE !





  HISTORY ...

  DOES ...

¡ REMEMBER !


  And HISTORY ...

Is Unkind

To Unjust

Leaders

Become By-Words

  And I COULD HAVE ... NAMED ...
  A 'Few' ... MORE ... RECENT ... BUT: ...

¿¿¿   TOO SOON   ???

No Problem:
  WE ... KNOW ... WHO YOU ARE ...
 And HISTORY ... WILL ... REMEMBER !

  Not To Mention ... That  'One' ...
  WILL ... Remember ]


  Are YOU ...

  Dear Leader ...

  Willing ...

  To Add YOUR Name ..

To Remember,

  Dear ...

YOUR PEOPLE

YOUR SELF





  And Remember Also ...

By His Heart
