Interesting. They both help disaster victims in a local community which is admirable. But the bigger picture is that Carter and his Liberal Presidency brought about massive inflation, a weakened military and emboldened the Muslims to overthrow the democratic leaders of Iran, to which we have problems with to this very day.
And Springsteen? As a Patriot citizen, I charge him with aiding and abetting a President that is hostile to our Constitution and way of life.

 Quoting: Dutch Retriever


Bruce Springsteen & The E Street Band will join Jon Bon Jovi, Billy Joel, Alicia Keys, Paul McCartney, Roger Waters, Kanye West, and The Who at Madison Square Garden to benefit the Robin Hood Relief Fund’s Hurricane Sandy recovery efforts in the tri-state area.

Clear Channel Media and Entertainment, The Madison Square Garden Company and The Weinstein Company —the same group that produced and sponsored the historic 9/11 benefit “The Concert for New York City”— have come together once again to present “12.12.12″ the Concert For Sandy Relief.

This special one night only live music event will help provide assistance to the millions of people throughout the tri-state area who have been affected by Hurricane Sandy. “12.12.12″ the Concert For Sandy Relief will occur on December 12, 2012 at Madison Square Garden in New York. More information will be released in the coming days related to tickets and VIP ticket packages; on-sale information; partners and sponsors; as well as telecast information.

As the tri-state region begins to recover from Sandy’s stunning and acute devastation along the coastal areas of Long Island, Queens, Staten Island, Connecticut and New Jersey, there remains an enormous task of rebuilding both the infrastructure and thousands of shattered lives. “12.12.12” presents an important opportunity for the community and nation to come together to provide significant support to these communities as they confront staggering short- and long-term issues.

The proceeds from the concert will go to the Robin Hood Relief Fund which is providing money, material and know-how to local organizations that are serving families and individuals in the regions hardest hit by the storm.

More details to be announced soon!

As I pointed out at the beginning of my post, what they are doing is admirable. However, it doesn't do much good to help a small community of people, when your bigger interests and activity are geared to bringing down the country that that small community resides.

You have to look at the big picture friend.

Thoughts on the Bigger Picture....
Was Carter an adequate President ? No.
He was never able to deal with the militant Muslims,
but who the hell is ?
It is probably true that the only way to get respect from
them is through military domination, but it is not real respect
just fear.
Carter is on the right track but it has to be collaborative if it will have a world wide impact.
Real change takes place 1 person at a time.
All liberals are not trying to destroy this country. The disease of destructiveness is in every political party
every religion, profession, etc. It is how it is used and by who.
And as for the bigger picture, Carter had a room full of
advisers (a lot of them pre and post his administration)saying what to do. "They" tried to go in and get the hostages,
"they" blew it.
So its all about Carter emboldening the muslims ?

Robin Hood is a fleecing program, a charity that donates to charities, specific hand-picked charity’s that people will not donate to directly for good reasons.

They say donate and 100% of the money goes to help poverty in New York City. But then they donate all the money to a secondary charity’s who do not have the over site and 20% or more of the money is eaten in administration costs, but robin hood does not have to say any of that because it is at that point out of their hands.

Not even counting the money they “donate” to people who run failed apartment buildings or housing projects that fleece government money in to the hands of NYC contractors.


It’s an incestuous circle of thievery in the name of helping people who never get help and will always need help.
I'm only human, it's my biggest flaw.

We must all realize a sink a chair and a pillow are all luxuries of home and a soldiers helmet takes the place of all three.

No, it goes into the larger circles of the Liberals. However, Carter was one of the two people mentioned by OP. Therefore, I concentrated on him.
