[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why are liberal women transfixed by celebrities? The last two celebrity filled coronations didn’t get the candidates across the finish line. Smart people learn from their mistakes.[/quote]

lol! Transfixed by celebrities - says the person mindlessly following a reality tv personality.

Regardless of his music, Bono is a humanitarian and has put decades of effort into that work. There are certain people who recognize they can use their recognition to help others have better lives. Brad Pitt, Sandra Bullock, Audrey Hepburn, Dolly Parton. I have no clue why it’s so triggering to people that some people want to use their good fortune to help the less fortunate.

A leader in Jubilee 2000’s Drop the Debt campaign, he next took on the fight against HIV/AIDS and extreme poverty, co-founding sister organizations ONE and (RED). With ONE, Bono has lobbied heads of state and legislatures all around the world, helping to ensure the passage of global health and development programs, such as the U.S. PEPFAR AIDS program that alone has saved more than 25 million lives over the past 20 years. (RED)—which partners with companies to raise public awareness about, and corporate contributions for, the AIDS crisis—has to date generated more than $750 million for the Global Fund to treat and prevent AIDS in Africa.
Bono is also a cofounder of the Rise Fund, a global impact fund investing in entrepreneurial companies driving positive social and environmental change in alignment with the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals.

That is admirable.  But, that does not change the fact that the USAID funds have been subject to massive fraud.

You'd think with all the money given to AIDS Africa that it would be over by now.  Ask yourself why it isn't.[/quote]

Such a stupid & shallow comment. Its not o only about the money![/quote]
