The Science and Technology Adviser for the Obama administration (from practically day one) John P. Holdren, is a colleague, co-author and fast friend (along with Holdren's wife, Cheri) of Anne and Tom Ehrlich, authors of the sixties' The Population Bomb. Together they've authored many books and papers, and lectured on the subject throughout the ensuing years up to the present day.

Excerpt from The Vindication of a Public Scholar:

"...Another encounter at Stanford would have a major impact on Ehrlich’s life and work. After the publication of The Population Bomb, Ehrlich carried on a feisty argument in the Stanford Daily with a demography professor whose views on the population explosion were drastically at odds with his own. The letter exchange caught the eye of a graduate student in physics named John Holdren, and Holdren’s wife, Cheri, suggested that her husband get in touch with Ehrlich, which he did. As Ehrlich tells the story, Holdren brought a sandwich to Ehrlich’s office, and by late that afternoon, they had developed an outline for a paper, “Population and Panaceas,” which would be published in Bioscience in 1969. It was the first of many collaborative projects and the beginning of a fast friendship that would include summer stints at the Rocky Mountain Biological Lab in Colorado and occasional Christmases together. Cheri Holdren would later earn her PhD in biology under Ehrlich. John Holdren would create the Energy and Resources Group at Berkeley, teach at Harvard, run the Woods Hole Biological Laboratory, and serve a term as president of the American Association for the Advancement of Science. In late 2008, President Barack Obama tapped him to be his science advisor. “Obama’s so lucky to have him,” Ehrlich said when the nomination was announced. “He’s the smartest environmental scientist in the world.”

Population and panaceas: a technological perspective

Author: Ehrlich PR; Holdren JP

Source: In: Reid, S.T. and Lyon, D.L., eds. Population crisis: an interdisciplinary perspective. Glenview, Illinois, Scott, Foresman, 1972. 102-108

Abstract: There is a tendency among the public to assume that technology will somehow solve the world population problem through farming the sea and the tropics, irrigating the deserts, and generating cheap nuclear power in abundance. The facts are that farming the seas is a technology that is far in the future, that tropical soils are not suitable for intensive farming and areas which are suitable for intensive farming are requiring immense amounts of fertilizer to keep production high, that the world is running out of water and irrigating the deserts will require immense technology, and that nuclear power is not cheap and it will be many years before it is abundant. Desalinization techniques exist which could make desert irrigation possible but every day a samll desalinization plant produces enough salt to cover 15 acres of land a foot deep. Getting rid of this salt is also a major problem. Before technology can possibly catch up with world demand, active efforts must be made to decrease the mushrooming growth of world population."

Is anyone concerned about the Americans in Texas or only the liberians and illegals?

Good question.

But remember, no matter what - it will be blamed on the Tea Party.

Because the goal of the Open Borders lobby, and this includes many Republicans as well, is to make the United States the First Universal Nation (the name coined by mass immigration fanatic Ben Wattenberg).

And to do that you have to have a population that looks like the whole world and not the evil nativist white population that were the American people from its founding.

Scary stuff and I don’t scare easily. This disease is a little unsubtle if they wanted to pursue population reduction, but it may be a case of never letting a crisis go to waste.
