ZD got some negative vibes from some Los Angeles Mayor Antonio Villariagosa supporters, here on the comment section of Mayor Sam. I'm not saying they WORK for the shady politician...I'm just saying, "mayoral supporter" because I cannot verify whether they work for the "biggest politicial superstar in the state, if not country" (even though the Governor, Arnold Schwarzenegger has a little star power, too. Think I saw him in some movies and on Leno last election season?
So here's a little something I put together for the sith-loving haters who want to drag down the City with their closed minds:

Bro, don't fight the force of Deming. It is in your best interest to succeed. From a benchmark "hang your hat on something" standpoint/your legacy for higher office -- injecting quality into city hall and the international City of Los Angeles (formerly a world class jewel) -- when they are supposed to be competing in the global economy is a MUST!
You wanna do buisness overseas...Well THEY already have implemented Deming. THAT'S WHY WE ARE IMPORTING THEIR PRODUCTS. (I know, now it's because of cheap labor in China, but those products are going to suck/low-quality...I'm talking about the Japanese stereos and automobiles and all that. Overseas Governments are going to be very displeased and I will go as far to say "insulted" (at least scoff at you) for not instituting Deming. It's like bragging that you never work out, or read, or eat healthy. Nothing to brag about if you are trying to get the buisness of a health freak. Well overseas people are "quality freaks" and that's why we are losing in this global ecomony.
These people from overseas can see we ignore Deming from the second they step off the plane, and especially once they drive to their hotels downtown. Now they may not want to disrespect you by mentioning it, but I assure you they talk about it.
Why WOULD you want ZD to be walking around with this stuff and YOU AREN'T. It's like showing up to a rumble when the other guys know karate and you don't. But it only HELPS the rival gang if both people know karate. (Deming teaches co-operation among competition. More on that later.)
I will be speaking to EVERYONE I know about Deming and will be typing up all my articles and notes and email them to my homies...So I won't be outing you if I mention it to you. And point is, embrace the Deming stuff because you are smarter than me in the first place -- so you have even more potential for it than I -- or at least I am CERTAIN you can think of new areas of application that I could NEVER think of. So that's what it's all about.
AND TO VERIFY DEMING'S IMPACT IN CHINA, FOR MYSELF (CAUSE I FOCUSED MORE ON JAPAN COMPANIES, CAUSE CHINA HADN'T COME ON YET), I DID A GOOGLE SEARCH FOR "CHINA DR.DEMING" AND HERE'S SOMETHING INTERESTING THAT DEMONSTRATES HOW ASIA FEELS ABOUT THIS GUY.

Subject: Letter to Foreign Secretary and Condoleeza Rice
Dear Friend,
Sorry for the long letters, but if we are to save the planet some-one
some-where has to do a Dr Deming for civilisation.
The President of Purdue is chair of the Association of American
Universities and had been selected by PRESIDENT GEORGE BUSH for the
Science, Technology Advisory Board. We have to get inspire him to act.
One letter from him and it will get to President Bush.
In my experience of life people do not act unless they have a little
creative competition. Will you please get Bill Bellows to go
immediately to the Deming Board and get them to write to President Bush
and invite him to the Deming Washington Conference, and copy the letter
to me and President Jischke of Purdue.
It will perhaps inspire him to
act, although I understand that he is very creative, and has hopefully
done so now that he has received the fax that I sent to you earlier.
If only the Deming people, could get people to stop looking
inwards to their own problems and saw that unless we help to solve the
problem of the system that we ALL live in there will be no problems to
solve, because we won't exist as humankind.
We must look outwards
and get others to look to the stars....or at least the oceans.....just
as President Kennedy did with the race to the Moon. In any system
without a common purpose, whether it be family, crew, club, country or
civilisation it eventually breaks up and people are at war with each
other. America, and the world needs a common purpose, if we are to
stop fighting each, and it stares us in the face. Hope that you can
get that message to Bill Bellows as soon as possible.
Dr Demings work
saved Japan at a time of crisis - that was the rehearsal. Now we have
the real event to prove whether his ideas work on the big system.....We
have to try.
Following are the letters that I have sent to Margaret Beckett and
Condoleeza Rice.
Good paddling,
David.

Blah, blah, blah...we carried on and the ‘tools’,
now honed in the environment of scarce recourses, are ready to bring
America, Europe, China, India and the world on board in building
sustainable civilisations. It seems to me that whoever picks them up
and uses them will lead the way in the 21st Century. We had hoped it
would be Britain, but now believe that it has to be the United States,
China, Europe, and India.

The ideas were launched in America by Indiana state senators, two
weeks ago and the next step is to get the Governor of Indiana to launch
them in Indianapolis in September. Then our friends in America hope
to inspire President Bush to take part. But it would help them
greatly, and speed up the process, if either Tony Blair or Condoleezza
Rice took the ‘tools’ to President Bush, who we are sure would be
delighted to receive them. And you are in a position to speak to both
Tony Blair and Dr Rice.
I enclose letters that I have sent in the last few weeks to Peter
Mandelson, Tony Blair and President Bush. In my letter to President
Bush you will see that I make reference to the management methods of
Toyota, which are based on using the brains of all, to continually
improve the process.
Those management methods were given to Japan
after WW2 by the American scientist Dr William Edwards Deming, who,
like President Bush, hated arbitrary targets. I met Dr Deming and was
asked if I could help his friends to get a message, through education,
about their systems approach, to the American people. We have now
done it, but have also related it to Earth Systems and Curing the
Cancer of Climate Change, as a first step in creating sustainable
civilisations.
Now, you may think it a little mad that here, in the United Kingdom, we
have invented the social catalyst to accelerate the process of social
change to the tipping point we need if we are not to allow the Earth’s
systems to reach the tipping points that will propel us to extinction,
but some thought Deming a little mad in 1950.
Now, Toyota is the
largest car manufacturer in the world, and leading the way on
environmentally friendly cars, and you are in an excellent position to
check it out, being from an engineering background, and with Toyota in
Derby.
Blah, blah, blah...you are in a
position to check out these new ‘tools’, hardened and honed since the
Millennium, so that you can give Tony Blair and Dr Rice, the benefit of
your technical knowledge and the knowledge of the Toyota system, before
they take the ‘tools’ to President Bush. You can also of course give
your knowledge to Europe, through Peter Mandelson, and then to China,
India and the world.

You have said that Climate Change is the top priority of the British
Government. We have the ‘tools’ to bring the world on board. All
you have to do is to pick up the tools. The world’s future is then in
your hands.
I look forward to meeting you in Derby.
Best wishes,
Good paddling,

Dear Dr Rice,
America: Creating the World’s first Sustainable Civilisation
By Curing the Cancer of Climate Change
Without ‘Arbitrary Targets’
Starting with ‘A Paddle for Life’
Some time ago I met the American scientist, Dr William Edwards Deming,
whose work transformed the quality of Japanese products, after WW2. I
was asked by Dr Deming’s friend, Dr Myron Tribus, former Dean of
Dartmouth, to help him get a message to America, through education,
about Dr Deming’s ‘coaching’ methods. I believe that those methods,
which are the very opposite of setting arbitrary methods, could now be
put to good use by the United States in bringing about the creation of
the world’s first sustainable civilisation.
IBest wishes and ‘Good Paddling’,
