The college kids can teach these under privileged, gone wrong kids, reading, and writing, and all the basic skills they missed, growing up, before they turned to crime and were caught.
In the event a fleet of twenty clippers sailing around Indonesia, or Somalia is under attack, and there are at least forty speedboats coming, and one of our research atomic subs is an hour away, these hard knock toughs are my selected crew members who can handle the 50 caliber super high power sniper guns, tow missiles, and grenade launchers issued from the Captain's locker. We need not fear any pirates attacking our clippers on the open sea.
Notwithstanding the myriad of independent, small non-union maritime related businesses, sail makers, etc., who will all enjoy excellent, healthy growth of their business from this clipper ship plan, the top heavy democrat party unions are liable to oppose this clipper ship program because they fear the loss of their status quo: to keep tight their skilled labor supply and demand for their overpriced union protected labor pool.
One of the reasons for the bankruptcy of GM and Chrysler can be laid on the doorstep of a backward looking democratic party's support of the bureaucrat bloated labor unions.
Relative to our labor unions, having been a member in good standing in the Seafarers International Union, for nearly a decade, best to quote my old shipmate long lost friend, the bots'n Arthur Harrington, of Boston, about the unions, "...used to be in this country, a workin' stiff could say, they give me a job to do, and I stand behind them." Nowadays they say, "They give me a job to do, but I hired them."
My shipmate, Arthur Harrington told me that on the deck of the S.S. Missouri, two days south of the Equator, heading to South Africa, in August, 1969.
The clipper ship program will enrich the third world peoples, in their own countries, by bringing American dollars into their poor communities, in exchange for people's hand made goods to fill out a return ship cargo.
The Lev Deal clipper ship building program is a major key in our remaining the world's leading economic influence, besides being the long term solution for eliminating our depressing loss-of-jobs recession. My campaign for our presidency is about crafting solutions to problems and explaining my proposed answers in advance. This clipper ship building program, long term jobs where ever there is water and people need work, is my program for reaffirming our leadership on good ship mother earth.
There is another issue: The Great Pacific Garbage Patch is a vast area, larger than Texas, in the Pacific where plastic trash is concentrated and broken down to into tiny pieces, outnumbering plankton greater than 7:1. This giant swath of sea is unsafe for all the creatures that live in the ocean. We need to clean it by filtering the Garbage Patch sea top with super fine nets, similar to a metal coffee filter!
Clipper ships are perfect for this clean up operation. The college crews can go down to the sea top in long boats, gather all of the plastic trash and bring it aboard until the clipper ship cargo holds are filled.
I expect that every country will shell out the money to pay for this, as every country is guilty. Arranging the payments will be a job for Thomas L. Friedman, my choice for Secretary of State.
I created a work of art, a Television Scripture to perform on world wide television, like old blind Homer, from dusk until dawn, with every line a delicate sensible rhyme, for all the worlds' peoples to sea, listen to and be a part of all at once, in that sense, a Vehicle for World Peace because everyone in the world will be doing the same thing at the same time; watching me tell my vision instead of out killing their brothers and sisters and/or non-stop raping Mother Nature.
That is my plan. I'm the independent world peace candidate for president.
