It is about spreading peace and tolerance and ending racism and hunger. There are pictures of both regular people and some great leaders like John F. Kennedy, Barack Obama and Bono. Please pass it along to your friends if you like it or leave a comment on You tube. There is a definite Irish flavor to the song even though I live in Chicago, my parents are both from Ireland. Thanks very much, Liza Flatley http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IKyb79tOW8w My email address is LizaBabe1@aol.com Or you can go to you tube and just type in Liza Flatley Dear Friend, I would like to share a short video I made of some images I set to a song I wrote and sang entitled We Are One.

Of *course* it's our problem, as fellow human beings. *All* of our burdens are ultimately shared, as all things are connected. Of course, the United States is still, relatively speaking, a young nation. It still obviously has some growing up to do. It's just too bad that it's the only global super-power while it's still a teenager with raging hormones.
