If the President “Messiah” Obama can’t, what makes you think that you can?

How about you get in a plane and go to Darfur with a banner demanding peace and act as a human shield. Or why not just “talk” to the genocide leaders and try to engage in “effective diplomacy”. Tell them how you feel.

I still like the Human Shield idea. Be sure to take some other hippies with you. That will deffinately stop them!

You can’t…if you were meant to do that, you would be there not here….

BUT…there are more than enough problems right here, that you could do something about…I suggest you get up bright and early tomorrow morning, and go down to the local homeless shelter, and volunteer…they have plenty of work for you to do…
or you could volunteer at a nursing home, animal shelter…all sorts of places need your help….

Go easy on the kid!

If you could make a music video, then you can raise money to help that country.

Answer by Tallen
You CAN make a difference.

Write your congressmen and senators. Do your homework, and tell them what is happening (with supporting citations) and why it is wrong.

Then take that same information and start a webpage, a MySpace, a Facebook, a BeBo, a Twitter, etc, called STOP THE KILLING and use those sites to convince others to write their congressmen too.

But don’t stop there. Call the paper, call the TV, heck, call Oprah, and tell them all why it’s wrong. If you are passionate, they will listen, and they will let you tell your story to others–thousands, millions, hundreds of millions.

Yes, you can!

Answer by B.Kevorkian
You can’t.

Seriously, you’ll be lucky to slightly raise awareness of it. It’s not like it’s an issue that gets as much play as gay marriage or which celebrity is screwing which other celebrity.

Politically, the issue is at an impasse, there are nations that want to do something about it, and they are blocked in the UN by permanent security council member, China, which has profitable relations with the government carrying out said ‘genocide’ (which is really more a very violent and systematic religious persecution, but, since it’s muslims persecuting christians, it’s not fashionable to point it out).

Answer by Mogollon Dude
First , You have to clean up your own government and have a responsible government for your self . Then you can help other countries .

Or Chicago?
To make improvement you need to do 2 things.
– Find a substitute for oil so China would no longer have to support factions in Darfur.
– Find a way to cease conflict between farmers and herders.

If you can solve those two problems I think Darfur would quiet down.

Answer by View from the corner
You have to convince the government there is something in it for the, problem is there is no Oil down there. If you could convince that Obama Banker tool that there was some sort of big profit to be made then he would send some troops. But if there is nothing in it for them, they aint going.

Think of the US as a corporate buisness not a country, try to think like a Big Buisness CEO with investors you have to make money for and keep happy.
