Are citizens sometimes ahead of their legislators? Is America ’s best resource in difficult times the character, skill, and initiative of its people? Then one of the best answers to the increasingly dangerous problems confronting us today is in introducing and passing the citizen-initiated World Service Corps proposals in Congress

Unfortunately, restating the Constitution does not provide anti-war activists, political parties, progressives, etc., a strategy that produces a character-rich public policy, which would only rarely include warring.

Americans are capable of building a strategy to change the character of America’s public policy to one that successfully wages peace via pushing People’s Lobby’s citizen-initiated American World Service Corps (AWSC) Congressional Proposals. For a nation founded on “We the people...” citizen-initiated legislation should become more commonplace.

Why does America slough in quagmires like Vietnam? Stupidly buy into stumbling into Iraqi wars that allow enemies to wear down our military and economy?

Does the peace movement need better tactics, strategies, time, and energy deployment to beat down the drumbeats that lead us to war? Scott Ritter thinks so, as does Peoples Lobby.

San Francisco can better handle the next Big Quake with the World Service Corps, By Dwayne Hunn, April  30, 2006, Indy News  http://www.indybay.org/news/2006/04/1818996.ph

"What’s one of the best ways to prepare for the next Big Quake? Have thousands of skilled, can-do Americans already trained, working, and knowing what to do the day after. Implementing the citizen-initiated World Service Corps Congressional Proposals does this, while simultaneously dealing with international disasters and needs."
