this i believe
People who I’d like to hear on NPR’s “This I Believe” segment:
Amy Goodman
Paolo Freire
O Sensei Morihei Ueshiba (unlikely, since he’s dead)
Mumia Abu-Jamal
Walter Cronkite (due to his one line in this trailer)
Studs Terkel
a brief sampling of people who might make my ears bleed:
Bill O’Reilly
Cory Doctorow
Samuel P. Huntington
Tom Cruise
Ann Coulter
Seriously, anyone can write one. L-Dopa might should write a group manifesto and have a computer voice read it. When it inevitably gets on. Because we could ever agree on anything. And essays written by committees always go well. Especially when concerning core beliefs.

“This I Believe” makes me want to kill myself pretty much regardless of who is it. Instead I usually turn the radio to something else.

They used to have only famous, charismatic people doing them. Which helped.
