"The care of human life and happiness, and not their destruction,
is the first and only legitimate object of good government."

--Thomas Jefferson

Greetings:

Welcome and thanks for your interest in WeThePeopleNow.org.

We the American people are generous, genuine, friendly and very productive. Everyone in the world could be the same if they had the opportunities we have.

Worker productivity, automation, education and training make it possible today for less than 5% of the world's population to provide the food, clothing and housing for all the people of the world. Robots could build robots that can build alternative energy sources that can provide the energy to build the robots.

We must wake up to the fact that too many of our public servants - civilian and military government officials, legislators and judges are not doing their job. A relative small number of the very rich and their agents now have control of most of our government, financial institutions, industries and the media. Our legislators represent corporation executives, not us. Our courts and administration continually side with corporation executives, not the people.

It is an absurd injustice that in this world of plenty, thousands of children die each day around the world from malnutrition and preventable curable diseases and millions of Americans and billions of people in the world have inadequate food, water, shelter and health care.

The USA is unique in that under our constitution 'we the people' are the authority and public servants derive their authority from us. It is up to us to demand that public servants do their jobs.

What We The People Must Do to Get our Public Servants to Do Their Jobs and What Our Public Servants Must Do are outlined below.

Please subscribe to this web site, consider it as a work-in-progress, financially support these efforts, work with me and provide critical comments/recommendations on our approach and feedback to

Those running for office are welcomed to use any or all of Universal Agenda: A Vision of America in a Peaceful, Prosperous World as part of their platform/agenda.

Thanks,

Sincerely,

Ron Fisher

About Ron Fisher:

Ron comes from a very large family in a small town in Tennessee and was blessed with loving parents, numerous brothers, sisters, sons and grandchildren. An engineer, businessman and honors graduate of the Naval Academy: Ron served in destroyers, nuclear submarines, as an engineer duty officer in shipyards and in various shore commands. His awards include the Legion of Merit. Ron, a member of Veterans for Peace and works tirelessly on reform mainly because he does not want people, in particular children, to needlessly suffer and go without food, shelter and health care in a world of plenty.

Ron made 15 nuclear submarine patrols during the Cold and Vietnam Wars. The last submarine he served on could have single-handedly destroyed over a hundred medium-sized cities and killed millions of civilians in a few minutes. Ron admits that if he had helped used those missiles, he would be a war criminal.

He has changed -- so must our public servants

We The People Must:

Work from a common plan. The Proposed Universal Agenda and Roadmap for a Peaceful, Prosperous, Just World is recommened as the starting point. It includes a:

Vision for All Mankind:
A world where healthy, happy, free, secure individuals care and cooperate with one another.

It also provides open-ended, comprehensive lists of:

  • Bold Goals for All Mankind
  • Problems and Roadblocks that stand in the way of attaining this vision and the bold goals. Most of these problems will provide opportunities for employment, investment, etc.
  • General underlying causes of these problems, concerns and challenges.
  • Proposed solutions, tactics, reform, change actions, legislation and mechanics which must be accomplished to address and correct both the problems and their underlying causes to realize the vision and goals. Unless the underlying causes of problems are identified and corrected, the problems are likely to reoccur.


Build a nationwide matrix organization of progressive organizations and individuals by area of interest and Zip Code.


Refine and Implement the Plan for a People’s Information and Education Program:
Demand that Public Servants:
  • Truly care for the people, environment and natural resources of the U. S.
  • Adhere to the spirit-intent of their oath of office and the Constitution.
  • Fairly enforce the rule of law.
  • Prohibit lobbying and get money out of politics.
  • Reform Campaign Finance and election processes.
  • Restore Congress's Constitutional checks against presidential power.

In addition to outlining what is demanded of them, these demands should put Public Servants on clear notice concerning unacceptable performance and the probability of additional actions if any unacceptable performance is not corrected. In particular, these letters should tell them if they do not intend to do their jobs and live up to their oath of office, that they must step down, be impeached and/or prosecuted.
