CALL TO ACTION: FOLLOW WILLIE NELSON'S LEAD AND USE HEMP TO SOLVE OUR PROBLEMS NOW.
The great American artist Willie Nelson has a project going called A Peaceful Solution. He and his daughter Amy wrote a wonderful song and have made it available for peace activists to use. Jay and Liz are working the project like angels encouraging activists to keep on going despite the illusions of the world.
The Hemp Museum and many others have made many webeos to the tune over the last year. If so inclined, make one of your own and submit it.
This overview of hemp posted below was written by PRI's Jay. He writes about how hemp is not only a global warming solution, but a solution to many of the problems we are solving now. The piece is so strong that it's pasted here and wherever else I can to get the word out.
Jay has deep descriptions of why we are where we are, and how to fix it with hemp, as Willie Nelson has been saying we should do for decades, and is still right in saying so.
The webeo and text are posted on their site:

A Peaceful Solution with Hemp
June 15th, 2008 Jay Posted in Appropriate Technology, Arts, Environment, Family Farms, Peace |
Beyond any doubt or debate, hemp can be used in over 25,000 useful and essential products. Some researchers insist upon a much higher number with as many as 50,000 practical uses for hemp.
These products threaten the cartels now making obscene profits with petroleum, textiles and pharmaceuticals. This potential of hemp was the motivation behind the powerful interests that moved to have the plant declared illegal and tried to eradicate hemp from the face of the planet.
After decades of secrecy this truth can no longer be suppressed.
The cartels follow a logic that leads from a simple observation. They observed that the wealth and power of all nations depended upon controlling people and production. All people and production depend upon basic resources.
The cartels sought to control all basic resources. Through the control of all basic resources the cartels sought to control all nations and people.
Monopolies grew around fuel, lumber, textiles, communication and health care then merged into multinational corporations. But control over these basic resources did not cover all the bases.
It was still possible for individuals and communities to live quality lives without using the products of the multinational corporations and hemp served many uses in this alternative lifestyle.
To shut down those outside of their control the hemp plant was criminalized.
Perhaps you are satisfied with the way things are now but many are not. The power of the multinational corporations is exercised with money from their control over basic resources.
The military and police are hired with the money they extract from everyone dependent upon the basic resources they control. Deny them their profits and their power and control vanish.
Now you can understand the true potential of hemp. The true potential of hemp goes far past 50,000 possible products. The true potential of hemp is to neutralize the global control of the multinational corporations over the basic resources of life.
The peaceful resolution, the peaceful revolution and the peaceful solution that can save America and the rest of the world may well pivot around the decriminalization of hemp.
Senator Barack Obama promises to help We The People in our struggle to regain control over our own lives by supporting the decriminalization of hemp. We hope this is more than an election promise to be thrown away after the ballots are cast.
The value of medical marijuana to the California economy cannot be denied. Yet this represents only a single use of the hemp plant.
I doubt if anyone can totally predict the massive changes that the further decriminalization of the hemp plant will instigate. If you just take a little time to begin to think about the implications you can glimpse the truly mind-blowing potential.
Let the forests grow and use hemp for paper and fuel. Eliminate dependency upon petroleum products and the power it puts in the hands of a few. Forestall the lopsided profits that enable the corruption of governments.
Pre-empt the collapse of civilization as we know it by transforming society now with a shift to renewable, sustainable and affordable hemp products. This is a viable option to waging war for vanishing non-renewable resources until the end of all life.
If Senator Barack Obama becomes the next President of the United States of America, then do not let his promises fade away. Insists upon the complete redemption of hemp.
Help the local efforts to decriminalize hemp. Virtually every region and community supports a grass-roots effort to decriminalize hemp. You can support that effort and it may be the most important thing you do for your community.
Out of a field of many issues and interests, one issue alone possesses the ability to transform society all by itself. Society is well overdue for a transformation.
Take Back America.
Vote Back America.
The peaceful solution can save America.

BARACK OBAMA -- A PEACEFUL SOLUTION -- USA HEMP MUSEUM, is a 30 second spot about the senator's courageous stand on hemp, a solution to our problems.
In 2008, a pro-hemp candidate is a winning candidate. Walk through the clouds and pay attention to the issue of hemp legalization if you are not doing so already. In the vast majority of the states where hemp's on the ballot, hemp's won.
Hemp is California's number one cash crop.
It is time for an evolution, the type we're hearing in Senator Obama's call for change, the original call for real change in this campaign.
Senator Obama seems to think things through, like the wars in Iraq and on drugs, both subjects he has taken public stands against.
A Course In Miracles teaches that LEARNING IS CHANGE. The more we learn about how the hemp plant can help us save ourselves, and use that information, the better we are able to accomplish our goals.
This webeo is based on Willie Nelson Peace Research Institute, A PEACEFUL SOLUTION project.
The soulful sound is Willie Nelson, written by him and his daughter Amy for open use in the peace community, for which we are grateful.
This piece is produced by the USA Hemp Museum, www.hempmuseum.org a private museum with a virtual wing, Richard M. Davis, founder, curator and author of HEMP FOR VICTORY: A GLOBAL WARMING SOLUTION with Sherwood Akuna and J. Nayer Hardin.
We put up a link to Richard's book at:
http://www.hempmuseum.org/H4V/H4VAGWS.pdf
to be shared with environmental activists interested in hemp.
We've also gone to WeCanSolveIt.org and set up a Hemp For Victory group.

Visit and support Sen. Barack Obama and if so inclined, VOTE OBAMA '08 -- A Peaceful Solution to our political turmoil.
