And, I agree that Clinton get's it. There are a lot of folks that do . . . wish there were more. Breaking out of one's environment is very difficult and requires desire. Finding the right motivating factor for EACH INDIVIDUAL is the only thing that works. Of course there are motivators that are general enough to attract large groups of individuals. It looks to me that you may have hit on one of them with KP Scholars. Keep thinking and doing. Jim,
