The World Mourns with Sandy Hook Elementary victims

US Embassy Rome, Italy

Moscow, Russia

Irish and British Newspapers

Rio Di Janeiro, Brazil

Thoughts and prayers with the victims. We are ALL Sandy Hook.

The effects...

Why is this happening? Why can't we just accept what's written and move to a more positive reality instead of the mudslinging and bullying that has happened since Obama has won this latest election?

Readers it saddens me to report that Ambassador Susan Rice will no longer be considered for Secretary of State. The bullying, tormenting, and partisan politics following the speculations into the attacks on the US Embassy in Benghazi have caused her to withdraw her name from consideration. I personally look to Ambassador Rice as my icon. She's so driven, so intelligent and has balanced being a mom, a professional, and helping lead the free world. I am so afraid to see what the alternative is, but we have no choice....and as always I'll be watching..

Hurricane Sandy Victims. You will make it.

This is me celebrating my 28th Birthday in Atlantic City earlier this year.

This is the very same spot in Atlantic City after Hurricane Sandy

To all who were affected by Hurricane Sandy, my thoughts and prayers are with you. In the East coast of USA; my former home, America has lost over 100 people to the force of the storm. Over 40 people have died in the Caribbean. New Jersey and New York were the "eye of the storm" as they were hit worst, affecting tourist sites like Atlantic City, the Jersey Shore, and annual events like the ING Marathon in New York City. Many people are still without power or water. New Jersey has been rationing days drivers can get gass according to their license plate numbers, and there are people who have lost EVERYTHING. Please find a charity in your area donating to victims, and give what you can. Many of you who were affected are Zee readers. If you personally know anyone who needs resources, toiletries or in-kind gifts email me and tell me how I can help. I'll be sending items this week.

It's been a while since i've written about South African politics. However, today I had to say something, because it was brought to mainstream media's attention just how trifling irresponsible Jacob Zuma's administration has been. We have seen him marry a woman 30 years his junior and cyphone funding. We have also seen members of his political party eat sushi off of a woman's body. The Zee Affairs post about the sushi event is to date the most popular post on this site. It still receives mind blowing hits. People just can't believe how CORRUPT those politicians were. Zuma's ANC party is the party that ended apartheid and today it was written in the Washington Post just how disillusion the South African Public is with the party. It's not enough that there are high levels of crime in South Africa with car jackings and violence. Zuma's fraudulent activities have created the prime example of a corrupt state. You may remember the 80,000 miners who went on strike earlier this year, because of poor pay and benefits. Washington Post went on to say

"...the number of violent protests this year, mostly over land, inadequate housing and poor services, has grown dramatically from previous years."

Wake up Zuma. Don't make South Africa into another sleeping giant.

Who was this man? Peep the stripe to find out!

This was Senator McGovern. He is probably most known as the President that America probably never had. Running for office against Nixon during the notorious Watergate incident. He suffered the biggest Election defeat in American history as he only claimed 37.5 percent of the American vote. McGovern was a university professor turned politician who made history as (at the time) the first politician from South Dakota to be elected to the House of Representatives in 22 years and to Senate in 26 years. A liberal who held Christian values. He is also well known for establishing and successfully operating the Kennedy Food Program; an operation that sent surplus food overseas and stated by McGovern himself to be one of his proudest achievements. McGovern contributed many other benefits to America and the world. He died this morning. He was 90 years old, and will surely be missed. Rest in Peace

America's Election... Foreign Effects.

And so it's wrapping up... I must say though the excitement is not as hot as it was back in 08, and the Election is less than 20 days away. We know what America wants, but what are the sentiments about the election overseas? I'll tell you this! Not much has changed. Mitt Romney has repeatedly gone overseas and been booed, because of his verbal gaffes (like calling Russia our enemy...remember that?) However, he's also gaining the support of some Arabs who felt Obama had not done enough for their autonomy. It's a mixed bag, needing more explanation which I'm sure we'll get Monday night. Oh yes! Monday night's debate is the final Presidential debate from Camp David and Foreign Affairs being Obama's strong suit, I have a feeling it will be even more entertaining than the debate last thursday. I'll be tweeting live from @zeeaffairs so follow and stay up to date.
