- His voting awareness came with a pretty penny so again - he only does things that he gains from.\n\nI personally don't think he has made any. He is so power hungry and has to have things his way and  he needs to be knocked off his high horse.

The Yahoo! Brainiacs event was very fortunate to have Russell Simmons visit us in person today and explain about his current projects and urge everyone to get involved in some way with the causes that he personally champions and supports.  I asked him your question and he was very adamant that everyone could get involved with the Hip Hop Summit.  "It's all about personal responsibility."  There are many different facets including education, voting and politics which people can help out with.  Check out the website for more info

We have given more to the world than any nation on Earth. Our people have sacrificed themselves all over the world, we give money and aid to everyone. We are the place people are trying to get into from all over the world. Yes I am proud to be an American.

Religion has nothing to do with it.  Society is fully aware of the risks and downtrodden effects of a culture that embraces homosexuality as a state of normalness.  Many cultures have embraced it as a norm in the past and the outcome is to say the least, always less than desirable.\n\nTheoretically to be a productive citizen within your country one must get married and have at the LEAST two children to replace both the mother and father after death.  When a society stops doing this the consequences for the said country are many.  Just one would be job force recruitment, a muddling of senior citizens income from the working young, higher percentages of diseases due to anal sex, a lessening of what some of the Christian right call morals, and a dilution of the fundamental vision of where a country is to go in the future.  Many would argue that a well-rounded person is one that is raised in a household with a mom and a dad.  I think most of us would agree and understand that statement.\n\nAs far as the not religious, many polls indicate that at least 80% of Americans relate to calling themselves Christians.\n\nTo finish I will say this, I am a gay man.  I see my friends and what happens to them.  Not all, but many get wrapped up in the club scene with drugs, sex, bath houses and many have ended up with HIV.  For the betterment of my society I will never vote or try and perpetuate a gay life style.\n\nHope this helps.

It really depends on what point in his life you're focusing on.  Probably his most notable effort to change social conditions in the US was his editorship of The Crisis, the NAACP's journal.  In that journal, he published numerous articles and editorials against racism and segregation in America, particularly in American higher education.\n\nAlthough he was a strong supporter of HBCUs (because most white universities refused to integrate), he opposed the vocational model of education for African-Americans.  (Booker T. Washington, the founder of Tuskegee, was his opponent on this issue.)  DuBois believed that African-American students required not just job (agricultural and mechanical) training, but the opportunity to study the classical curriculum (the humanities, classical languages, the hard sciences and the social sciences).   DuBois thought that only by getting the same elite education as white Americans were afforded could African-Americans take their places as leaders in American capitalist society (doctors, lawyers, ministers, scholars, politicians, administrators, etc).\n\nLater, DuBois became disillusioned with the possibility of true racial progress in America, devoted himself to international issues of race, became a socialist, and moved to Ghana.

Bush has already done a lot of good things to US and to the world.  If he controls Mafia and terrorist activities in US definitely he can be remembered by Americans for ever.  Surely next President's actions will make Mr. Bush as the better one.  Sure his party will win back power in this election.

Well, what about the military?  He wil receive free training in a specialized career field, get money for college, have good insurance and housing benefits, and know that he's doing a damn fine service for the country and is respected throughout the nation.  This is, of course, provided that he is an American.  I don't really know how things work in other countries.  I'm sure I'll get flamed like heck for this answer, but its just a suggestion, and worth examining just as an option to the daily grind of civilian life.

He did so  much more than just sing. He brought to light many aspects of the human condition, including the freedom of speech, civil rights, and issues on religion all over the world.

ELVIS IS an all American Icon who truly changed the cultural landscape in sseveral respects.\n However, that said, I believe his accomplishments and his life are rapidly becoming irrelevant to anyone under 30.\n Americans in general have a poor appreciation of their own cultural history, and where they came from, and its getting weaker all the time

Washington hands down.  Without him there would be no other Americans.  He made a America what it is today with his decisions.

His biggest contributions to the United States lay in his actions before he became the President.  He is often cited as the father of the constitution and was a major contributor to the federalist papers.  As President, the War of 1812 dominated his presidency.
