See the link dated today.

2009-07-12 Barack Hoover Obama, subtitled "the best and brightest blow it again"

We tried very hard to help Barack Obama understand two things from Des Moines forward, but his closest advisors--Axelrod and Plouffe specifically, refused to let him consider the obvious:

1. Embrace all parties, all voices, not just the Democratic voices. Today the White House "shuts out" the 70% of the voices that did not vote for Barack Obama, and they are paying a price.

2. Embrace strategy and a strategic analytic model, understand that "issues de jure" cannot be solved without a "whole system" approach, insist on true costs and on seeing the whole.

In October 2008 we published a book, ELECTION 2008: Lipstick on the pig, that proposed a simple unconventional solution to the mortgage and rental melt-down: stop all evictions and foreclosures, and insure all individual citizens--the root of national power--one at a time. NOT A PENNY TO WALL STREET, assuring the "creative destruction" of those dinosaurs of financial greed and ignorance and out-right crime.

Instead, Obama kept Treasury, Justice, and the Federal Reserve in the hands of the bankers, and he endorsed and expanded the "prevailing wisdom" of the Bush-Cheney Administration, which is to say, the entire "system" continued to be loyal to its political paymasters at the expense of the public interest.

At the link dated today is a truly valuable piece of open souorce intelligence useful to the collective. It helps explain why prevailing wisdom carried the day and why Obama is destined to fail. Having said that, this non-profit non-partisan website will also be the first to say "It is not too late." All Obama has to do to get out of this mess is LISTEN to all voices and adopt a strategic analytic model that redirects funds toward the eradication of all ten threats to humanity, by harmonizing spending across all twleve policies--not just our spending, but the spending of others.

We do that with unclassified decision-support and a ruthless campaign to out the "true costs" of every product and service.

Obama is our President. We support him. But will he take our collective hand? That is the question of the hour.

2009-06-28 KGB buries CIA--ask any question via text

Our intrepid never-sleeping Executive Director found this, and we love it. It is the very embodiment of the "education one cell call at a time" that EIN has advocated since 2006, and it takes UNICEF's RapidSMS one step further toward making all human beings both equal, and equally informed. BRAVO!

2009-06-28 Citizen cross-walk nails six

With a tip of the hat to Editor of thefallengrain.com, see the links today, one to the NYT story and a second to the citizen intelligence minuteman's site.

2009-06-16 Kudos to Nokia

See the link. What this means is that in combination, solar-power and wind-powered cell towers and ambient cell phones can exist without an electricity grid.

2009-06-08 The End of the Two-Party Debauchery Fest

We have been watching, ever since Peter Peterson came out with his brave and sensible book on how the two parties that shut the other 63 parties out are running the country into the ground.

Although Ralph Nader, Robert Steele, and many others have sought to inspire demands for Electoral Reform, it is only now that a "correlation of forces" appears to be in the making.

Ralph Nader, Ron Paul, Cynthia McKinney (Greens, but herself a future president with perfect integrity) and the unified independents all are coming together to demand Electoral Reform.

See the four links dated today:

1. The Free & Equal Website

2. The Grand Illusion the Book

3. Steele-Turner Eight Points for Electoral Reform

4. ELECTION 2008: Lipstick on the Pig (free book)

2009-06-05 Open Government Round Two

Baby steps, but most worthy. Please take a look and join in.

2009-06-01 Open Government, Public Media 2.0

At the three links today:

1) Oama Administrations first dip in the water on public participation in government, Open Government. 200 million citizens, fewer than 3,000 actually heard about this and participated, with 1200 "ideas." Although not a heavyweight effort, richly repays time spent looking at top-ranked ideas.

2) Eight serious ideas that made it into the top 300 but not the top 100--legalizing marijuana followed by truth and transparency are in the top 100 many times over.

3) Public Media 2.0, a righteous good piece of thinking.

2009-05-12 Federal Government Losing Credibility

The Federal Government is rapidly losing virtually all credibility with citizens and their sovereign states, to the point that multiple states are now passing laws that nullify federal ?mandates" and directly threaten secession if the federal government fails to respect both state and citizen sovereignty as guaranteed by the Constitution.

We have been watching this for some time, and offer the several links dated today for citizen background.

Here is the bottom line: when the federal government, a service of common concern to the United STATES of America, loses both its integrity and its intelligence (decision-support), its demise is virtually assured. The Collective Intelligence of the citizens, while severely impaired by a rotten educational system, a moronic and corrupt media, and the failure of integrity of every other major institution from the church to the corporation, is alive and well. We the People is a moral and intellectual force that cannot be repressed, as Howard Zinn writes so elegantly. We live in an Unconquerable World as Jonathan Schell writes. We are coming off a Fifty Year Wound as Derek Leebaert writes.

Truth matters, Ethics matter. When the Executive makes decisions for reasons completely divorced from reality or the needs of the people, it is slitting its own wrists. When Congress tolerates a universal low standard of uninformed Members (who do not even read the bills they vote on) who strive to represent those who pay them rather than those who elected them, the keel of the ship of state has rotted off and the ship of state is adrift and headed for the rocks and shoals.

This is the truth, plain and simple. We pray, with all the faith we have in God and man, for a restoration of integrity and intelligence at all levels of governance. A Republic, if we can keep it.

2009-05-05 NYT & Friedman Lose Intelligence & Integrity

See the link dated today for a superb dissection of Thomas Friedman and the NYT, both of which have lost their intelligence and their integrity. Warren Buffet has it half right--there is no newspaper in its present form that is worth investing in. What he has not figured out yet is that We the People desperately need to create a global grid of public intelligence services that are reliable--truthful, objective, comprehensive, timely, and holistic--if we are to overcome the century plus of information asymmetries that have allowed the few to profit at the expense of the many.

The NYT is the Enron of the media industry, and Thomas Friedman is its puppet in the window....both pathetic.

2009-04-28 End the University as We Know It

Kudos to Mark Taylor, Chair for religion at Columbia, for shouting out in a most elegant way that the university naked is quite naked. So also all US education, all US intelligence, and all US research.

The time has come--General Sir Colin Powell declined our suggestion, unfortunately--to integrate all funding for education, intelligence, and research under one Deputy Vice President for Knowledge, and to build from scratch our Collective Intelligence and Cognitive Science noosphere.

Cutting the secret intelligence budget in half, from $65 billion a year ($78 billion a year if you count the new cyberwar cyperspy budget that will not produce much), and redirecting that money to a new form of education that is fully integrated with the trades, the professions, and the advanced cognitive disciplines, will yield a Smart Nation.

We cannot get much dumber and still survive as a Nation.

2009-04-23 Chile Mandates Open Government

Chile is setting an example for all of us. Saludos y un gran abrazo de respeto a todos nuestros hermanos honorables.

2009-04-20 Transition Communities

In a most interesting turn of events, Transition Communities have displaced Transpartisan Politics as the new meme in town. Transition Communities are focused on doing, and on respecting diversity in doing, and this seems to be working at a grass-roots level with immediately visible results that have never been achieved by the Transpartisan Politics model that can collapsed twice now (first Reuniting American, then Transpartisan Alliance).

See the links dated today for tangible inspiration.

2009-04-14 Open Secrets now Open Data, Follow the Money

The tide has turned in favor of the public. At the link today see the story on Open Secrets now being Open Data, and how this enables the public to follow the money--usually the public's money.

2009-04-07 The Demise of Obamaville

Poor President Obama. We feel truly sorry for him, surrounded by liars and thieves from the innermost circle of the Democratic Party (the more inept of two criminal parties).

He blew his integrity in accepting the Bush-Cheney bail-out as a given, and he blew his chances of a fresh start in his appointment of individual who are so far removed from reality and the public interest as to give clinically insane a new meaning.

President Obama does not have anyone who combines the three essential: constant access to him; KNOWLEDGE of both the real world and "who knows"; and the ability to speak truth to power. The Director of National Intelligence (DNI) and the Director of the Central Intelligence Agency (D/CIA) have both failed early on, each choosing to "go along" with the idiocies of the past, each unwilling to embrace the new rules for the new craft of intelligence.

Obama is trapped. We pray that he will discover the grit to break free from the Democratic-Wall Street stranglehold, and find himself a DNI capable of speaking truth to power while accessing all information in all languages all the time.

2009-04-03 Bogota Mayor Creates Collective Intelligence

Today's story, courtesy of EIN Executive Director JZ, features the Mayor of Bogota, a university professor treating the city as a giant classroom, using humor and clarity to communicate knowledge that empowers people. Here is a quote:

"The distribution of knowledge is the key contemporary task," Mockus said. "Knowledge empowers people. If people know the rules, and are sensitized by art, humor, and creativity, they are much more likely to accept change."

Mandamos a los cuidadanos de Bogota, y su jefe temporal, un gran abrazo y un saludo de respecto.

2009-03-31 Government 2.0 Citizen Driven Idea Sourcing

See the link dated today. This kind of thing, combined with citizen-oriented true cost accounting, buying clubs, information burden-sharing, and so on, has real potential at harnessing the distributed intelligence of the Whole Earth, something we have been preaching since we wrote about creating a Smart Nation in 1994.

2009-03-29 Block on Citizenship Plus Two Slides

We snagged the chapter at today's link from the Internet, and added two slides from Charles Hampden-Turner's book Radical Man: The Process of Psycho-Social Development.

This matters because citizenship--with integrity as an inherent character of both citizenship in the collective and leaders of citizens--is a fundamental articulation of collective intelligence in action, of conscious evolution.

2009-03026 The News is Dead--Good Riddance

At the link dated today is a Pew Report on the News in various parts. Here are the three highlights:

1) The news industry is dead within five years.

2) Pew has not discovered intelligence or budget analysis

Commentary: In a complex world where the broad collective has been betrayed by elites (including small town elites), broadcast news--generic news--that has nothign to do with anyone's actual well-being is dead. The news industry has abdicated its role as the source of reliable and useful information for citizens, and become a hollow shell for advertising. Meanwhile, although blogs and citizen journalism sites are growing in influence, and some in utility, as a general rule no one on the Web really offers tailored intelligence applicable to specific individuals, communities, issues, or any other category. We are starting to conceptualize a migration from military intelligence to Whole of Government Intelligence to Citizen-based Community Intelligence. In the end, every citizen will be--as we surmised with Alessandro Politi in 1992 (his term), a citizen intelligence minuteman, every citizen a collector, producer, and consumer of public intelligence. On that foundation, secret intelligence will be exquisitely effective, to include tailored support for one man-one bullet executions and incarcerations that do not require years to achieve, only legal judgment followed by executive action.

2009-03-22 Peter Block, COMMUNITY

Peter Block's book, COMMUNITY: The Structure of Belonging, has captured the attention of--among many others--the Transpartisan Alliance (the network of networks), and is highly recommended. Here is his definition of citizenship:

“…a citizen is one who is willing to be accountable for and committed to the well being of the whole. That whole can be a city block, a community, a nation, the earth. A citizen is one who produces the future, someone who does not wait, beg or dream for the future.”

Block is also known for an earlier book on Stewardship and the concept of the servant-leader. Here is his definition of Stewardship:

“the willingness to be accountable for the well being of the larger organization by operating in service, rather than in control, of those around us. Stated simply, it is accountability without control or compliance.”

See the links dated today to these two books and to his own consulting website.

Across America, citizens are beginning to state "no confidence" in the ability of their elected governments to perform the stewardship role. At the same time there appears to be a strong wave of INDEPENDENT citizenship as ownership emergent in which the two party bi-opoly is clearly perceived to be a primary reason for the failure of governance at every level.

Barack Obama can harness the distributed intelligence and the distributed energy of this tsunami, but ONLY if he breaks out of the closed circle that is isolating him from reality and betraying the public trust every bit as irresponsibly as his predecessor.

2009-03-22 CounterPunch on Obama Melt-Down

Obama is now paying dearly for double-dealing--on the one hand, claiming to be in favor of justice, truth, and transparency, while on the other blatantly continuing Empire as Usual and giving Wall Street everything it wants from the US Treasury. We all knew this was an evil unprincipled plan when Secretary Paulson under Bush-Cheney included language that said that the bail-out would be completely free of both legislative and judicial scrutiny, and Congress went along. How blatant do high crimes have to be to compell public attention?

We continue to believe that Obama and Biden are good men trapped in a bad system, a closed circle, a "bubble" of dumber, plunder, and blunder. The CIA under Leon Panetta has been an abject failure--he learned nothing from those who sought to help him early on, and has failed to be the Presidential educator, mentor, fact-checker, and strategic advisor that Leon Panetta was uniquely capable of becoming had he been able to harness and direct CIA. Instead, Panetta at CIA like Obama in the White House, has been captured by the very system he knows needs draconian reform and redirection.

Integrity and Synthesis are the two core concepts. As we help the Transpartisan Alliance understand the urgency of public intelligence in the public interest, we have achieved a breakthrough. Below is the sentence that finally broke through the kum-ba-ya hand-holding nonsense that has held most do-gooder organizations back from effectiveness:

"No matter how good your decision-making process, if it lacks intelligence (decision-support) in the form of full access to all relevant information, then it will be an uninformed decision process, and will fail on substance while appearing to succeed on process."

A number of sympathetic observers feel that Obama is fearful of assassination and not yet ready for a "break-out." This may be, but the 70% of America that did not vote for him could deal him a melt-down blow in 2010 in as much as the Democratic Congress has continued "Empire as Usual" as well as the Wall Street bail-out.

We repeat here, and add a fresh link to our book published before the election, ELECTION 2008: Lipstick on the Pig. At the time, fully familiar with the effectiveness of bottom-up solutions in an age when complex societies are collapsing for lack of integrity and reliable information at the top, we called for a moratorium on evictions and foreclosures, a cap on interest at 10%, and federal insuring of individual citizens.

As all can now see, we had it right and Obama as well as Bush got it wrong. They got it wrong because they are beholden to and listen to the same Wall Street cabal that has corrupted both mainstream parties that together now represent no more than 50% of the eligible voting public, and soon--as the Greens, Libertarians, and Unified Independents grow stronger--as little as 40%.

Bottom line for Obama: if he does not connect this summer with the 70% of American that did not vote for him, and also completely recast his Cabinet as a Transpartsan Cabinet, then he will lose Congress in 2010 and he will not be re-elected in 2012.

We'd like to help, but only Obama himself can break out of the bubble and connect with Cynthia McKinney, Ron Paul, Newt Gingrich, Ralph Nader, and others of substance whose integrity--and public intelligence--is vastly superior to that of the partisan advisors now smothering the President.

2009-03-20 Human Intelligence (HUMINT) the Near Frontier

At the link dated today is an excerpt from a seer on the unlimited potential of human intelligence as an Earth value. This is, in our view, the Near Frontier where both national intelligence as spies and secrecy and education and research, and bottom-up collective intelligence might converge. See the briefing in the Earth Intelligence portal for some thoughts on the convergence of Cognitive Science, Collective Intelligence, and Conscious Evolution.

2009-03-20 Polarity Management Ideas

Ray Paul of Cultural Creatives and the New Political Compass remains the absolute best mapper and facilitator of convergence among disparate groups, but at the link dated today we offer a look into Polarity Management in relation to public policy issues, and reocmmend the beneficial insights and illustrations therein.

2009-03-19 Transpartisan Alliance Interim Leadership Photo

Magic is happening in Portland Oregon. Here is the first collage of the interim leadership team producing the strategic plan including the financial and technical plans, and a few of the core documents contributing to the plan.

2009-03-19 Whitehead on It's Time to Join the Resistance

At the link dated today is a superb discourse summarizing the many reasons why it is time for all Americans to join "the resistance" to all that is not working, namely the government at all levels, corporations, churches, schools, etcetera.

Having praised this article, we now break with it. A major aspect of the maturation of Earth Intelligence Network since it became the public intelligence element of the Transpartisan Alliance has been its complete acceptance of the view that resistance does not work, while Buckminster Fuller's view of creating a new alternative that ultimately attracts those who others seek to resist does.

EIN is committed to creating public intelligence in the public interest, and helping the Sunshine Cabinet produce a coherent public policy that eradicates the ten threats, harmonizes the twelve policies, and helps the eight challengers create a prosperous world at peace.

We salute John Whitehead--he represents the very best of the thinking among those who properly see the breakdown of all that is supposed to be America the Beautiful. The Sunshine Cabinet and the sustainable balanced budget it will issue will be intended to attract President Barack Obama and Vice President Joe Biden into engaging with ALL Americans, not just the 30% that voted for them. God Bless America.

2009-03-18 WARNING NOTICE on GOOGLE Free Cell Phones

At the first link dated today is the lead story, one of many, that outlines Google's vision of free cell phones. The vision is correct--it may even have been lifted from Earth Intelligence Network which thought of it first. The ethics of Google are, unfortunately, highly questionable. They have finally realized what we knew ten years ago, that in the new era the question is priceless and the answer should be free, BUT they are "out of control" with respect to what they do with all they touch.

We are posting a book review we did, and letters we sent to eight key CEOs and four nations including China, because as much as we admire Google's computational mathematics and the Google "cloud," we now consider Google vastly more dangerous to society than the National Security Agency, Federal Bureau of Investigation, and Central Intelligence Agency combined. Google is a supranational technical capability with zero respect for privacy, intellectual property (except their own, claiming rights over materials digitized), and other intangible ethical values of supreme importance as we begin to develop our collective intelligence and work toward conscious evolution.

Google is the Standard Oil or the AT&T of our era. Microsoft has the cash to beat Google, but lacks the vision. China has the brains and the cash to beat Google, but may lack the leadership and is also reluctant to embrace bottom-up collective intelligence. IBM and Sun are potentially interesting, but IBM's strategic unit is desperately myopic.

The answer is simple, and John Chambers, CEO of CISCO, has consistently refused to offer this: create server-routers that give Application Oriented Network (AON) control to all individuals at the point of creation, and create a global grid in which each person controls their own portion of the cloud.

Ceding world information to Google, which is now suffering great hubris and bleeding from multiple sucking chest wounds arrived at via its proprietary lack of security rather than an integral open source system, is a prescription for a cyber-dictatorship as well as total information abuse that will harm to governments, industries, and communities. The fact that Google can now program search results so you see what others have paid for you to see, rather than a "fair and balanced" outcome without bias, is most troubling.

Google needs oversight. Google needs transparency and accountability. Google needs to learn what E. O. Wilson discusses in Conscilience, why the sciences need the humanities.

Vint Cerf and Larry Brilliant have an opportunity here, to demand that Google open up and play the long game, which in Epoch B demands respect for the authenticity, dignity, and rights of the individual. Google needs a strategic analytic model focused on eradicating the ten threats by harmonizing spending across the twelve policies, so as to create infinite wealth. Until it acquires and honors such a model, Google is nothing more than a modern carpetbagger and monopolist.

2009-03-14 Media Demise

Chuck Spinney, sailing in the Mediterranean, never stops reading and thinking, one of the reasons we admire him. At the link dated today is a piece from the Washington Post on the demise of the media, along with an advertisement from Lockheed Martin, which is partially responsible. Chuck comments, as does Steele, with fresh links to Steele's earlier "Paradigms of Failure" Op Ed, and the latest briefing on how the West has lost both its integrity and its intelligence. James Madison had it right--if we mean to govern ourselves and achieve life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness (actually fulfillment in the classical sense), we must arm ourselves with information and be able to create intelligence.

2009-03-11 LEARN THIS NOW: "Rush & Crush"

It is with great sorrow that we note the deaths of so many German teenagers at the hands of one gunman. Nine students, two teachers, a passerby, and then two more bystanders when confronted by police.

We made this observation after the Virginia Tech massacre, but now we will repeat it.

LEARN THIS NOW: "Rush & Crush" is the new meme for personal survival. All the kids at VT died because they stood like sheep, immobilized, not only while the gunman shot people, but as he changed magazines.

LEARN THIS NOW: If you see a gun drawn, shout" GUN" and point, and then also shout "Rush & Crush." If not close enough, take cover. If in between or close and you have something to throw, THROW IT AT THE GUNMAN.

This is called a swarm defense. IT WORKS. When a gunman first enters a potential killing zone, even if they get off a shot or two, they are still massively vulnerable to "Rush & Crush." The student nearest the door should throw their school chair and follow with their body. 3-5 others should be right there with the first brave person.

IF YOU DO THIS, AT MOST TWO WILL DIE AND MAYBE NONE.

"Rush & Crush." LEARN THIS, REMEMBER THIS, AND LIVE.

At the second link dated today is Steele's review of Rage of the Random Actor. There are other books such as Harvest of Rage, Cheating Culture, etcetera. The Western World is going clinically insane. People are going nuts. This kind of random rage is going to happen more and more often if we do not get our Collective Intelligence into gear.

LEARN THIS NOW: "Rush & Crush."


2009-03-05 Intelligence for the President--AND Everyone Else

It breaks our heart to see President Obama self-destruct for lack of proper intelligence support. Here are just three small examples of how he is not getting the 100% 360 degree intelligence he needs:

EIN to the President:

Sir,

The 70% of the eligible voters that did NOT vote for you are your center of gravity. Having won with a bare majority of a l56.4% turn-out, you MUST win over those others. You start by respecting the diversity, dignity, and intelligence of that 70%. You start by inviting Cynthia McKinney, Ron Paul, Ralph Nader, and Dennis Kucinish (the only Democrat that puts country before party) to a public town hall meeting, asking them to join you in an informal governance council Of, By, and For ALL OF THE PEOPLE, not just the 30% that elected you.

Your existing secret intelligence system is hosed at the same time that your entire government lacks the knowledge or the will to "do" intelligence, aka decision-support. Your Cabinet choices have been TERRIBLE. You clearly abandoned the transpartisan rhetoric of your campaign, and let the Democratic party mafia narrow your choices. When you combine a partisan Cabinet with a rotten intelligence system, no matter how good your intentions, your decisions will stink. They will be unaffordable and unsustainable.

Has anyone talked to you about a strategic analytic matrix that helps you address all ten high level threats by harmonzing what we spend across twelve core policies from Agriculture to Water and going on to influence how others spend $1 trillion a year in combined government, corporate, and social investment? EIN will do this for free. You have no one now serving you that "gets it" at this level of integrity. Whole Earth Governances demands Whole Earth Intelligence. We still need spies and secrets, but they offer less than 4% of what you need to know, at a cost to the taxpayer of $65 billion a year. For tham amount of money you can have the best spies and secrets on the planet, AND jump-start public education and public research while building a 21st Century infrastructure that is green from the git-go, not a make-over for stone age infrastructure.

Unlike Rush Limbaugh, most Americans pray for your success. You cannot do it alone. You must harness the distributed intelligence of the Nation, starting with the 70% that did not vote for you.

We're from the Heartland, and want to help you.

Very respectfully,
Robert David STEELE Vivas
