Imminent Acclaim

I kind of wish Barack Obama and I were jug buddies. I'm dead serious. I like a lot of what I have read about him, and I am sure we could strike up a rapport in a split second. All I would have to say to him would be, "Hello Mr. Obama. You and I should hang out together sometime." I am certain he would find a good reason to jump on the idea.

Since that isn't happening in the foreseeable future, I'm left with the option to spout what I think of the Presidential Race and how I evaluate Mr. O's chances of being the Democratic candidate. One of the reasons I wanted to come out of my political closet is that this race is going to shape up to be the most interesting competition for top gun that we've had, probably since Truman v. Dewey. A lot of presidential nominations have gone by since then; but this one is guaranteed to be the most colorful, if you ask me.

From where I sit, Mr. Barack Obama appears to be an intellect with a few timely ideas. His opponent comes across as a nice lady who I would definitely want to sell me a house. But it wouldn't be the White House. I would prefer to see someone in office, black, green-ish, or white, who has a predilection for solving problems and forging untrodden paths. That's why I said Mr. O and I could definitely trade "war stories".It's unfortunate that the Presidential race has started so early. (This might turn out to be longest such campaign in history, I would'nt know for sure.) But, just like the pro sports seasons, the influence of the media, and the revenue that reigns as the obvious motive, we will be the audience to a political marathon.

The statement Mr. Obama had to retract re: the lost lives of some 3,000 troops in Iraq suggests a risk factor for all candidates over the protracted course that lies ahead. This faux pas will probably be forgotten by summer, especially since it was well intended; but I see where my favorite to win the race could use an ally - a deep throat, if you will - for instant polish on how to abbreviate his real convictions in front of the camera. I would be perfect for the job.

I could say something like, "See here, ol' buddy, you want to use some ammunition I've collected for you. They're called mind grommets. Either you use them at the beginning of phrase or at the end. They will give you the panache you need for this game. They will make you look like the polititian the American people really want in office."

Can you just picture me saying that to Mr. Obama? It would be nothing short of awesome. And, my buddy would be standing in front of fifteen microphones in November 2008, saying something like:"And when the last vote is counted, ladies and gentlemen, your choice of President should be my cue to lead this country to a better quality of life for all citizens." (Ya-a-a-a-a-y-y-y!)

There’s more where that came from, if you are interested. Perhaps I will write a manual on how to partition your mind when you run for office. I could call it "Never Let The Media Know What You're Thinking".

Who Won the Super Bowl?

Don't tell me. I know it was the Indianapolis Colts. My friend, Danny who works at the corner deli, keeps me up to date on critical issues like this. Good ol' Danny. Plus, when I turned on my computer this morning, the first thing I saw on my browser's home page were headlines about the Colts' victory all across my screen.

But getting back to Danny, he actually won $260 on the game! Now, that makes him a winner---of sorts. He was pretty proud of himself, too. But, I remember him telling me about the party he and his girlfriend had planned for the game. When I asked Danny how the party went, he began to boast.

"Oh, we had a great time," he said. "We had about thirty people over, and we had a blast...drank beer until it was coming out of our ears."

"So, what did you eat?" I asked.

"Pizza, of course!" Danny said. "That's the only way to watch the Super Bowl. Drink beer and eat pizza."

We won't mention the name of the pizza provider at this time. They have already reaped enough profit from the largest commercialized spectacle of the year. My friend, Danny, admitted that the party cost him neary $400. It looks like the pizza maker and the beer company made out a little bit better than Danny did, especially when you multiply this case study by the millions of similar Super Bowl celebrations - some smaller and quite a few, much, much grander in size.

We're getting to the point here. Yes, the Colts won the contest between two football teams, but the largest winners are the affiliates (corporations) that knew how to promote their products and services, before, during and after the game. I have watched how companies, large and small, use an important medium to leverage their marketing strategies. The Super Bowl is a classic example.

In reality, the TV network that sold the air-time to the beer company (for $1.2 million per minute), and the beer company that turned around and merchandized millions of cases of beer in every city in the United States, and the stores that sold the beer to consumers are the big winners.

The affiliate marketing strategies of these mega-corporations and local merchants are great examples of how independent entrepreneurs can leverage their business plans. The financial scale is different. Nothing else. One affiliate marketing bonanza that I believe is poised to hit the screens is Search Big Daddy, a fresh, new Internet marketing enterprise that every serious business owner should pay attention to. One of its key features is based on the use of keywords as a commodity. This business opportunity just might be another tidal wave of the future.

What's Going On?

You name it. It's happening. One of the best business ideas that I have seen in weeks is the relatively new GDI campaign. Global Domains International has put domain name ownership squarely in the hands of its members, meaning...you can own a full-blown e-commerce ready website THAT'S GOT VALUE, and within minutes, start earning anywhere from $1 to $50. As you can clearly see, this is a hype-less statement. We resist falling into that common trap. Of course, there is every opportunity to earn thousands per week, but it requires working smart.

The GDI thing is so simple, everyone who knows how to say, "Here's your free DVD I promised you," can wind up beating Las Vegas casinos 365 days out of the year, while spending half the time on vacation! GDI asks you to sign up for a week FOR FREE to get a handle on how simple and attractive business plan is. Then, for just 10 bucks a month, you're a rep, working for a sexy (believe me)and exciting operation that lets you make as much money as you want. You can take that to the bank!

Well, enough about GDI. Let's talk about me. I am one savvy, good looking...never mind. What I want you to do is check out Global Domains International. You can copy this post if you like and email it or paste in your own blog, for fun and profit. When you get your own site, you can just change the ID in the link. It's a sweet deal. Go get yours!
