    Correct Ways To Market Your Cause: Darryl Hannah Vs Al Gore, Et Al.

    She believes in taking care of the environment and she walks her Talk with totally congruent Actionsdarylhannah – unlike the “Green Elite” of the global warming alarmist movement.

    Seems Ms. Hannah hasn’t bought gas at a gas station in over 6 years. She uses bio-diesel.

    By contrast, Al Gore, Robert Kennedy Jr. and Leonardo DiCaprio and other Learjet Liberals can’t seem to keep off their private jets, each of which dump more carbon pollutants in the atmosphere in one flight than an SUV puts over an entire year.

    Two weeks ago Gore was filmed getting off a private jet on his way to giving yet another finger-wagging lecture on the “global climate emergency.” Catch it here if you missed it before. 

    Hey Al, time to follow Hannah’s lead or quit the finger-wagging. If it’s such an emergency, shouldn’t you at least act like it is?

    How about you? Are your marketing and advertising messages congruent with your company? Does your Walk match your Talk, like Hannah’s; or do you suffer from the do-as-I-say-not-as-I-do disease of Gore, Kennedy, DiCaprio and others?

    I’ve had some emails that tell me that “the elite” deserve special consideration because of the importance of their mission.

    My response — I don’t recognize any of these people as “elites” in anything, save perhaps hypocrisy. #2, if they’re going to lead, then they must lead by example, not exception.

    #3 - I’ll listen to Hannah because she’s earned the right to be listened to, by her Walk/Talk ratio. I may or may not agree with her, but she gets my respect, regardless.
