Current Events

Guides US on the Right Path is a compilation of articles. Put together in book form for the purpose of demonstrating the author’s consistent social and political leanings over a period of time. The nuances of each piece in this context suggest a bit of the prophetic nature of the writings. The significance is even more noteworthy because of the contemporary implications. To this extent the author has strong convictions and is happy to stand behind the validity of all chapters.

There is an additional inference. A highlighted belief, we as individual and the United States of America as a country go through critical points in development and that now as a people and a country we live in such a time. As in all cases we hope for the best knowing things are not perfect. The general credo of the book describes the path traveled has a heavy dependency on a lofty interpretation of grace and the significant role it plays in the overall guidance of all things.

Interesting enough Chapter 17, “The Vedic Eight” weighed heavily inspiring the assembling of the collection. As much as the underlying points of this section have merit the chapter now holds the weakest place in regards to the confidence level about the accuracy of the theme from a prophetic standpoint. Please take time to read these articles and I pray the true meaning finds its way into your heart.

VOLUME I STAY THE COURSE
Why one of the letters in this book (Letter Twenty) may very well crack wide open the Dacer-Corbito double murder case. It could help identify the mysterious “BIGOTE” who allegedly gave the final order to assassinate Salvador Dacer and his driver while they were en route from Malacanang Palace to Manila Hotel to confer with former Pres. Fidel Ramos. In solving any murder mystery, one has to determine at least two essential factors: MOTIVE and OPPORTUNITY.

In the reinvestigation of the case, the following individuals should be asked what they know about some aspects in the playbook of the heinous crime: Former Presidents Fidel Ramos, Joseph “Erap” Estrada, Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo, Sen. Panfilo Lacson, former SEC Chairman Perfecto Yasay, Jr. and businessman Dante Tan.

There are so many books on South East Asia and so many on Race Relations, yet people World around are still in the dark about our part of the world despite so much information available everywhere. This book is a running commentary on our way of life both here and back home and it may very well have succeeded in bringing out our basics besides throwing light on host of other issues hitherto not well known.

Everyone is familiar with ‘Nimby,’ “Not in my backyard”, ‘Nimfy’, “Not in my front yard” sets an altogether different tone. It is a caution for one and all to pay heed to global warning; live and let others live. Life is too short to hold grudges; forgiveness is the only way out of the dilemmas we all find ourselves in. There are lots of references to it in the book, find them and adopt them.

Pictures in the book have been taken on actual locations and tie well with the theme of the book; enjoy them as you read past them.

I have had a lifelong love affair with this country and all that it has to offer its citizens. And even though we now find ourselves in some very troubling times, there is no question in my mind that Americans will once again rise to the challenge and restore the full promise of the American Spirit. I have recorded in this book my thoughts and feelings about some of the people, places, and events that are now shaping our future. I hope that by doing so it will cause people to think about what must be done by each and every one of us to ensure that our children and grandchildren have the opportunities that we have had to follow our dreams. And I hope this book will cause people to stop and think about all of the little things that come with freedom that we sometimes take for granted.

This book not only encompasses events in Europe with the American GI, it takes you to my talks with Richard Nixon, Robert Kennedy, Frank Sinatra and top music people; and with the former Chancellor of Germany, the King of Hungary, and German generals who helped us win World War II. I include my meeting Otto Scorzeny, the dashing Errol Flynn-like hero who rescued Mussolini from captivity, who later received retribution from his own people. Many dangers for our country lurk in the shadows waiting to happen. This book takes you there to caution and alert you.

This book is about truth and regard for important issues that face our nation. These concerns should not be taken lightly. My wish is to get the public involved in finding a way to make a difference by making informed choices. This book is about my life and how people placed ambition and pride over all other values, it is about the hatred that cost this country many lives. There are people who stand out in my mind because they went beyond ordinary weaknesses to stand up for what they felt was right. They showed courage in the face of fear and carried on bravely for their fellow man in the name of justice and freedom.

I ask that each reader seriously consider the evidence I present and form his or her own opinion on some controversial issues. As I present my thoughts and experiences, you will come to know that I place a high value on empathy and compassion for people. My hope is that this book will help remind you of the injustices all around us. My mission is to keep the heroes of the last century fresh in our minds so that their humanitarian efforts will be passed down to our next generation.

The theme of this book is that this country is being ruined by people’s selfish actions. They don’t do what situations call for but rather focus on pursuing their selfishness goals of self-esteem, self-enrichment, self-advancement and bringing about their own pleasure. The broad interests of society are lost in the process.

This book was written with the belief, “We all can make a difference to better the lives of others.”

My highest hope is that President Obama will make a difference by what he does in office. I decided to write this book in order to give him my thoughts and ideas gained from my past experiences in a life of 85 years. I learned a great deal about military strategy talking with German Generals for three years. I am pictured in this book having conversations with the Chancellor of Germany and the King of Hungary. I majored in history and am an ardent political analyst. Richard Nixon sat down with me at Logan Airport in Boston, Massachusetts, one day and opened my eyes to what politicians must do to win nominations. John Volpe took my advice on his run for Governor of Massachusetts and won in this strongly Democratic state. He was a Republican.

In the Rock and Roll era of the 60’s I was a song writer, record producer, music publisher and artist manager. I discovered Freddy Cannon and his 2 million record seller “Tallahassee Lassie.”

My book deals with public issues and war and peace for President Obama to read and think about in his decision making. In my previous book, President Bush, Sr. read my chapter on why Robert Kennedy’s name should be placed on the Department of Justice Building. After reading what I had to say he not only placed his name there, but wrote me a letter telling me my book would be placed in his presidential library at Texas A&M.

Americans should thank God for blessing us with the victory of a great person with empathy for others, already proven by his stand for stem cell research for the sick that need help. This man will succeed in everything he does. His tremendous victory against all odds has made me a believer.

November 4, 2008 - The Mood of a Nation is a wonderful compilation of writings by ordinary people with extraordinary recounts of one of the most historical times in American history, Presidential Election 2008. Like millions of people who anxiously gathered in 1963 to hear one of the most elegant and moving speeches of all times be given at the Lincoln Memorial, D.C. by Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.; thousands of onlookers awaited with the same anticipation on November 4, 2008 to hear “Mr. President Elect” Barack Obama give his Presidential Victory speech at Grant Park, Chicago Illinois. This book captures the mood of some of our countrymen and women of the days leading up to election day and days after. It is a mood captured by young and old, from different ethnic backgrounds, and political affiliations. Election day, November 4, 2008, is a time in history that will never be forgotten. This reflective and insightful collection of work is a piece of history that all can share and pass on to future generations.

This book was written with the specific purpose of finding out why President Joseph “Erap” Estrada was convicted of plunder by the Republic of the Philippines Sandiganbayan which imposed a sentence of reclusion perpetua. He was accused of bribery, graft and corrupt practices, betrayal of trust and culpable violation of the Constitution.

There are always two sides to every story. This book presents the side of trying to find out what caused his fall from grace by highlighting his misdeeds and underscoring his abuse of power as President of the Republic of the Philippines.

This book will bring to light the Surveys, Reports, and Statistics to most of the growing problems we face in America today; ranging from Church, Government, Parenting, Schools, Drugs, Illegal Immigration, Gangs and so much more narrated by Author R. Sea.

I’m not writing this book to praise the successful, but rather to bring light to the growing problems that this nation is facing, the longer we let it all slide and consider them not to be serious problems then the longer and larger these problems will grow. I’m not going to sugarcoat these issues because no amount of sweetener will overcome the bitterness of the facts.

We the people have put ourselves exactly where we are at. From the lack of good moral values and common sense, we now live in a country of violence, vandalism, disrespect and drunkenness. The core of this country has become pretty disgraceful.
