Don’t forget that the number one question asked Obama was “Will you legalize marijuana?”. Think about the benefits that medical cannabis can have on the millions of suffering Africans. I am very disturbed when I hear that UN Police are using international aid money to persecute cannabis growers in Africa and destroy such an important beneficial crop. Bono has enormous influence on UN leaders, and some of the world’s most powerful people. Please don’t think for a moment that by removing cannabis the UN is in any way helping the poor people of Africa or any other continent. This is a grave injustice, and I'm sure the sick and dying Africans effected by such laws would agree. The cannabis plant can help to provide food, clothing, shelter, safe medicine, and eco-friendly fuel. If the One Campaign really wants to help the poor, we should let them grow hemp, and if we must get involved, help them succeed in taking advantage of the many benefits of the hemp industry. I hope Bono keeps up the good work, and helps to stop the bad work. Thanx. www.nycamp.org Hello fellow ONE member,

Since 1985 Rotarians worldwide have joined together to eliminate Polio. These are everday people with families and children of their own taking unpaid vacations to do community service. This year every Rotarian will work toward raising 100 million dollars over the next three years, and this will be matched by The Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation. Today, right now....you can make a difference -For only 60cents you can buy a Polio Vaccine. The job is almost done and Rotary volunteers will lead the way.

These actors are beneifiting for themselves in the process, otherwise they would be giving more than they "EARN" . which is not earnest. they would be like the middle class if they were serious about solving the issues. it is up to the actors to set a precedent and most will follow. they can afford to cure all hunger(actors) if they all put forth all money together. dont let then distract you!!!!!! the last forest that is heavily populated with life is brazil., I bet all of these actors have brazialian cherry hardwood floors in their gigantic mandions that could house a hundred but only house 2 or so.
