Power Lefties

Who are the Power Lefties? I've already mentioned the top three, the Super Power Lefties: Oprah Winfrey, Michael Bloomberg and Bill Gates. They're like a Holy Trinity when it comes to what they've done to advance leftkind. I think they're beneficent, and I think it's more than coincidence that they're all left handed. They have true powers, influence that you could only hope to begin to understand.

In some ways they transcend politics and partisanship. As bizarre as it sounds, I think this can be attributed to being left handed. Go with me here for a minute. When you live in a world where your kind makes up only 10% of the population, and every thing around you is made for the other 90%, you learn to adapt. That's what being left handed is like. You grow up adapting to a world made for right handed people, where almost every object, machine and tool is made for their convenience of use. Once you've mastered this biased world, it must seem as if there are no limits... How have Oprah, Bill and Mike done it? One word: Communication. In their own ways, they've Mastered Communication. It's something that's common to all mankind, and they've figured out unique ways to facilitate it. In the club of Super Power Lefties, I would have to also include Barack Obama and Bill Clinton.

It's something to aspire to, I suppose, so that I too can change the world.

Power lefties. Where was I? After the three main branches on the Tree of Left, (okay, I know I take it a little bit too far sometimes) there are my favorite entertainers. Not that Oprah, Bill and Mike aren't entertaining, but perhaps it's not what they're best known for. My favorites when it comes to entertainment are power players in their own left: Ben Stiller, Will Ferrell, Jerry Seinfeld, Vincent D'Onofrio, Sasha Baron Cohen, Angelina Jolie, Jon Stewart, Whoopi Goldberg, Jay Leno, Drew Carey and Tina Fey. They're all multi-threats, or slashies, as Stiller might say. They're also all strong communicators and creative geniuses.

For a minority that makes up only 10% of the population, we sure do represent!
