Dear Mr. President:

The other day I read your comment about not being able to win if we were outspent by a 10 to 1 margin. The comment surprised me.

Just from a strategic point of view it was foolish. It did, and will, tend to dishearten our forces, and encourage the opposition, because there is actually no way that we can match the Retrogressors in terms of money. This fact is not new. In all of history, we have seldom been in a position of superiority in either amounts of money or numbers of troops.

If we are “outspent” in money by a margin of only 10 to 1 it will be a miracle. My guess is that the margin is already well more than that. I doubt that we will ever know how much money the Retrogressors have put into this particular phase of the struggle which I am sure you understand has been going on from the point that you won the nomination in 2007.

Money, which is only a kind of energy, is relatively meaningless to the forces arrayed against us in this struggle. They have more money than we can imagine. If the Struggle that humanity has waged against these forces since the beginning were only about money, we would still have monarchies and very probably, although somewhat modified, slavery in many of its, now not so prevalent, forms.

So, Mr. President, it is not the power of money, that will triumph in this particular chapter of the Struggle. It is the power of Humanities unquenchable striving for Liberty, Justice,  and Freedom for all. It is the power of Love that will, as it always has, triumph. In this kind of power we can outspend the Retrogressors by billions to one since they are literally incapable of using this kind of energy. In addition we have on our side, the resurrected feminine principle of Goodwill, science, and actually, cosmic physics. The only survivable systems in Cosmos are those that support the Common Good and the General Welfare of whatever whole of which they happen to be a part.

In all of the natural world, there are no systems of exclusivity or the privilege of a few at the expense of the many. Only in humanity with the exercise of our free will have such systems existed and failed over and over again. The reason that the United States has existed for over 200 years is that it was designed, if somewhat imperfectly, to be a system that served the Common Good and the General Welfare.  Its success is well documented and known the world around.

I have observed the growth of this present offensive of the Retrogressors in which fanaticism and murder are the usual staples, for many years. Since it has, from the beginning, always been the same, their agenda has been obvious. The Retrogressors aim is to re-establish a system of privilege and exclusivity, not only in the United States, but world around. If they are successful here in the United States, humanity is in for another dark age.

To me this particular point in the great struggle, here in the United States, mirrors, or is phase two of our Civil War. Even though we have, so far, kept it pretty much off of the dense physical plane, it is a civil war. The same forces are arrayed on each side. The stakes are the same. We are involved in yet another struggle to assure “…that government of the people by the people for the people shall not perish from the earth”. No less.

Being a person of some years, I have experienced and still enjoy the fruits of a system that serves the Common Good and the General Welfare, as have my neighbors and our children and grandchildren. We simply cannot allow money to be the decider of this effort. My council is that you and your spokespersons, while not ignoring the need for money, begin using the power of the word, spoken and written, empowered with the energy of love. You have the word. That was evident from the beginning.

“Shield and lance! God has blessed the warriors. All will come. Twilight will end.  Do you not see that the Cosmic Consciousness is in convulsion?   We know the course of the battle. The Plan of the Creator cannot be altered. From the Beginning the dark ones struggled. From the Beginning We conquered.” Leaves of Morya’s Garden I #231

Loving us
