The whole is greater than the sum of its parts. This blog is a collection of people of all ages, from all walks of life, from Professors and students, from business executives to business students. But as diverse as we are, we are united by two core beliefs. First, we believe not only in our country, but in all people who are Americans. We believe that this country, and all our citizens, are well worth working for, and fighting for. We will stand up and work together, for ourselves and for our children and for some contributors here, for their grandchildren. We also believe that to succeed in our mission, we need to help each other – so we support, help and work with each other, not against each other, for our common good.
As we set out on this collective journey, some of us realized that the old Hippies were right. We need to take care of each other, of our planet, of our fellow Americans. We could all use a little more peace and love and harmony. Why dirty? You ever seen a clean hippy? Neither have we. The actual old Hippies among us confirmed this we might add.
So thanks for stopping by. Read, enjoy, contribute your comments and pass the site on. For more information, please drop us a line.

Dirty Hippies at Tumblr
On winning and values
So, right-wingers, you want a society where families are stable, where everybody looks like you and shares your Christian faith, and where the government pretty much stays out of your business? It’s not in some Randian fantasy, it’s right here in the USA.
Empowerment and education: Why young people don't vote
“Greater education of our civic processes must be the fulcrum of any program to increase voter participation amongst young people. … When people stop participating in democracy then that is an institutional failure, not a failure of the citizens. Assuming otherwise leads us down a slippery slope to elitism and nothing could be more anathema to the American Republic.”

I’m looking for old hippies (born before 1955), clean or dirty, who can help with research for a book I am making. Don’t have to be from the U.S. Just have to have been a hippie in the 60s or early 70s, and stayed that way — whatever that means. Please reply through my website. Thanks!
