Obama's appointees, (Monsanto boy) Secretary of Agriculture Visack, has vowed to "take GMO to the next level". and Michael Taylor, the FDA's new Deputy Commissioner of Policy,( who oversaw the creation of GMO policy and who was an attorney for Monsanto), are more than eager to "help" Africa http://www.responsibletechnology.org/GMFree/AboutGMFoods/DangersofGMFoods/index.cfm http://www.huffingtonpost.com/jeffrey-smith/will-obamas-food-safety-t_b_178127.html I’m with Akosua Albritton.

Yes, in a perfect word we could all do that, but for heavens sake, these people in Africa and other places are starving to death! Do you really think they care whether the food is organic or not! They just want to eat! I prefer to eat organic but not everyone can afford to do that and until it is made affordable to everyone and we have no more people starving to death anywhere, does it really matter? Get real!!!

On related matter, I have been in this political and social struggle for over 25 years and have NEVER received a "cold call" or communication unless I initiated it. Our movement is weak, weak, weak. We do not identify conscious persons. Additionally, most of our NGOs and non-profits and even conscious media, have a bigoted structure and clique. It's almost hopeless but I'll continue hoping that we get our acts together!!!! My email addresses are all over the internet, yet NO ONE has ever contacted me, unless I initiated the communication. What is the conscious community doing to IMPROVE?!?

When I was growing up we planted corn, cassava, groundnut, pepper tomatoes and much more and maybe they yielded so much food because we have no knowledge of using fertilizer as a solution to plants bearing food. I feel it will take more than these practical solutions which in the long run do not amount to much. What needs to change is our conciousness, the farmer needs to know that he is part of God's creation, the soil is fertile and he will know what he needs to plant.And those who are helping should see these farmers in the same light. To go to massive human lenthgs to correct such long term issues seems short sighted. How much aid has been given and what are the results of them? Are we saying that God is out of the picture of His own creation? Has the fertile soil of Africa changed to the extent that we cannot have food without fertilizers?
