Home» BQI-Opedia - Barack's Friends and Associations
Prior to and since becoming President, many have questioned Barack Obama’s friends and associations. Because of a range of factors including his choice of churches, classmates and community involvement from then candidate Obama and later as President, some have questioned whether the President shares the same values as the majority of the country. Presented in this section are facts surrounding the President’s friends and associations.
When we began this project the idea was to consolidate as much information as possible on President Obama and his Administration. Our goal is to provide only factual data. However, we identified a web site that has accomplished some of the goals set by BQI-Opedia. Although the link that we are providing here has some opinions expressed, the vast majority of this web link is factual and we, therefore, will lead this section with it. It is a tremendous resource, backed with reference resources and more. The name of the web site is “America Rising – - Logistics Monster”. The link to President Obama is:

John Holdren (White House Office of Science and Technology Director) Article taken from The Blaze. In an interview with CNSNews, Holdren
explained what he meant when he wrote in his 1973 book Human Ecology: Problems and Solutions that “A massive campaign must be launched to restore a high-quality environment in North America and to de-develop the United States.”
In that book, co-authored with Paul and Anne H. Ehrlich, Holdren also calls wealth redistribution (both within and among nations) “absolutely essential” in order to provide a decent life for everyone.
CNSNews.com: “You wrote ‘a massive campaign must be launched to restore a high quality environment in North America and to de-develop the United States’ in your book Human Ecology. Could you explain what you meant by de-develop the United States?” http://www.cnsnews.com/news/article/75388
