Hey, if you all are looking for my Robinson for Governor information, please go to our campaign's new official webpage, at:

www.Robinson-Hart.org

You'll find everything you used to find here, and more.

If, however, you want to book me for some good ol'-fashioned preachin' or any other gigs that are not
overly political, you've come to right place, here. Please read on!

Recommended reading:

Stupid White Men by Michael Moore. There's something still right about America, given that this pungent critique is now number one for several weeks on the New York Times Bestseller list. Read it and laugh, read it and weep.

Hope's Edge by Frances Moore Lappe. An update and extension of her notable Diet for a Small Planet, this book talks about food as basic to community, as foundational for hope, against a corporate world. Read it!

When in despair I remember that all through history
the way of truth and love has always won;
there have been tyrants and murderers,
and for a time they can seem invincible,
but in the end they always fall.�E

M.K. Gandhi

Think of it ... always.
