We are in danger of going over "The Fiscal Cliff" -- in large part -- because the framing of the Bush tax cut issue and adding "revenue" to our debt crisis has been appalling.

Why is no one breaking this down? And why are we ignoring two...

Did climate change have anything to do with Superstorm Sandy?

Climate change made Storm Sandy more intense. Climate change is responsible for dozens of deaths and billions of dollars of damage. And it is going to get worse.

Until this week, climate change has...

Dear America,

The NBA players and NBA owners need to pay for the damage they cause "the little people" and, ultimately, all strikes and lockouts must do the same.

Make parties responsible for their irresponsible actions -- instead of allowing "collateral damage" or the foisting of negative externalities onto the general public...

Richard Greene is a Beverly Hills-based communication strategist and author who has been a speech advisor to many high-profile clients -- including the late Princess Diana.

"The King's Speech" is much more than...

Just six and one half years ago, a young state senator spoke for 16 minutes and 11 seconds (just 4 seconds longer than the real "King's Speech," Martin Luther King's "I Have A Dream," the greatest in modern American history), launched a presidency and established himself as one of America's...

As we leave the season when many have celebrated the birth of "The son of G_d", perhaps we might momentarily stop our shopping mall worship ceremonies and ask if "G_d" exists and, if so, who or what he/she/it is.

I believe that science answered that question back...

As we approach the day where many celebrate the birth of "The son of G_d", perhaps we might momentarily stop our shopping mall worship ceremonies and ask if "G_d" exists and, if so, who or what he/she/it is.

The party that controls the House of Representatives or the Senate determines the policies and direction of America. When you vote for a candidate on November 2, you...

The assumption is that Pastor Terry Jones and his flock have the absolute, unfettered constitutional right to tell General Petraeus, Secretary of State Clinton and even Sarah Palin to go to hell, to burn Qurans and put Americans here at home and around the world at risk and incite an...

Senators Bill Nelson, Menendez and Lautenberg may have introduced the most important environmental legislative ever on Thursday.

A great reason, of course, for Alaska Senator Lisa Murkowski to object to its passage by consent.

The recent news about an 18 percent tax on pizza and soda helping American adults lose 5 pounds a year is going to drive Republicans and Libertarians crazy, especially after the soda industry just knocked out a much smaller soda tax proposal in Washington.

But I have...

On this Christmas Day, it might be appropriate to note that God and Santa Claus, in our culture, are really pretty much the same. In fact, in the way we improperly define the concept of God, they could actually be brothers.

I write this not to anger...

As a teacher of body language, let me translate The President of The United States for those who condemn his Special Olympics moment, his entire appearance on The Tonight Show and his seemingly out of context laughing on 60 Minutes last night.

Everyone just relax.

On July 27, 2004 I sat in The Fleet Center and watched State Senator Barack Obama give his 16 minute Keynote Address at The Democratic Convention in Boston. After it was finished I knew that I had seen "Words That Shook The World," as impressive in every way as the...

As a communication strategist, I love to think about how I'd solve really intractable communication challenges. John McCain has one of the most difficult ones I've ever seen in politics so, just for fun, here are the six things I'd suggest he do tonight at the debate and between now...

Talk about bursting the bubble.

Talk about identifying the "elephant in the room."

This is, perhaps, the best campaign ad that the Obama campaign could ever have hoped for, or even designed themselves. It's brilliant strategy.

Take all of the negative...

Over 14 months ago The Huffington Post ran my article, "He's Ready" describing why Barack Obama would run and why he would do well.

Friends and political experts thought I was crazy, naive. "He's too young." "He has no experience." "He's a Freshman Senator -...
