The corporate funding under the food initiative will be partly from African companies, with just under half of the investments coming from businesses there and the rest from other companies around the world, according to the White House. The program's goal is to promote sustainable agriculture and remove 50 million people from poverty during the next decade.
Obama's hypocrisy doesn't get more obvious. He wants to encourage small farmers to grow their on food? What a joke! All across America small farm co-ops are under attack because they threaten the profits of the big supermarket corporations. In Nevada, the "Farm to fork" organic food picnic was raided and bleach poured all over the food so that it could not even be fed to the pigs! In California, which supposedly is suffering a $16 billion budget deficit, they still have money for the "Food Cops" to do door to door confiscations of raw dairy products from small farms, because those are a threat to the profits of big commercial diary factories. So government crushes the small farmers and then Obama campaigns that he will take the pressure off if elected.
Last night my wife and I were volunteers at a local food pantry handing out food the the homeless and to people whose food stamps run out before the end of the month. I got to look the results of government food and economic policy in the eyes and if you have the courage to do the same you will come to know as I do that the very best thing Obama and the Federal Government can do for We The People is to GO AWAY AND STOP MESSING WITH OUR LIVES!

Realist - Everybody in America is soft, and hates conflict. The cure for this, both in politics and social life, is the same -- hardihood. Give them raw truth.
