Barack Obama’s polarising Presidential legacy wildly rides on the decisive current second term in the Oval office to salvage the mighty fabric of Americana, and self-serve an administrative agenda to massage his own cause (see: ObamaCare); the U.S national deficit has officially tripled since Obama’s administration in the White House.
Editor’s Word| Mental Health Is Real: Mark Eisenhart (A Tribute)
Yesterday, I learned that one of my Supermen features Mark Eisenhart; accomplished and honorable fireman, mentor, life coach, trainer, athlete and author had taken his own life. Even as a I write these words I struggle to make sense of it. I had conversed with him just a week before. He was eager to learn when In-spire LS would be producing digital covers again. He knew that he was a worthy candidate for this and I never at any point disagreed with him.

The anticipation for the sequel of the blockbuster Think Like A Man is now partly over, as the trailer for Think Like A Man Too has now been released.

Is There Hope For Detroit?
The Motor City became the largest city in the history of the United States to declare that they were filing for bankruptcy in July 2013, after approximately accumulating a fiscal deficit of $18.5 billion (£12.5 million).
Detroit’s forlorn financial handicap marked a new low for the once proud city; once the heart and soul of the nation’s auto industry big three (Ford, GM, Chrysler). The population has declined in Detroit, from 1.8 million inhabitants (1950), to 700,000 residents today. Rick Snyder, the Republican Governor of Michigan, green lighted a request from Detroit’s state-appointed emergency manager,Kevin Orr to file for the daunting chapter nine bankruptcy protection.
#CurrentAffairs| America’s War On Whistleblowers
‘Dissension is the greatest form of patriotism’ Thomas Jefferson once eloquently stated. The empowering radicalism quote by the iconic U.S President holds profoundly truer today with cynical, publically maligned whistleblowers in Edward Snowden and Bradley Manning being recipients of once patriotic Americanism and dignity personally denounced in a heartbeat. Are whistleblowers national traitors, real American heroes, or whistleblowing zero’s? It’s based on the data of political subjectivity.
