Alice Walker Advises Obama

Pulitzer-prize winning author Alice Walker ("The Color Purple") has written an open letter to US President-elect Barack Obama that captures the essence of what new leadership must look like. She counsels:

• Cultivate your own happiness
• Make time for your loved ones
• Have no enemies. Her remarks echo those of visionary activist astrologer Caroline Casey, who has frequently said, of Bushco: "We are enemies of their projects but friends of their soul."

Here's Ms. Walker's letter in full. May you take it to heart!
