Convince the upper income bracket, especially those in the tea party right, that the ONLY way they will be safe from crazy Islamic terrorists, economic catastrophe, revolution and environmental disaster is to colonize and relocate to another planet.

We would get a major boast to the space program, and increase in employment and best still, we would be free of a major nuisance.

We could call it The Project for a New Astronomical Century.

I feel I need to make something clear here. I do not dislike Obama at all. He is most likely a very nice person.

But I do feel he is not a very good president.

Then again we have had a very long list of lousy to mediocre presidents and I am kind of wondering if maybe that isn't the whole point.
