CARLOS SANTANA:"My Concept is the OPPOSITE of George W. Bush"
Carlos Santana Speaks Out Against Bush
DEMOCRATIC DAILY



Santana has hit the road with his new tour, ‘All that I am’ and is performing tomorrow in Lima, Peru. Carlos spoke briefly with reporters in Peru about his thoughts on Bush:

Carlos Santana quoted his old friend Jimi Hendrix in an anti-war message here Monday and said his philosophy is the antithesis of President George W. Bush’s.

“I have wisdom. I feel love. I live in the present and I try to present a dimension that brings harmony and healing,” the 58-year-old rock icon said. “My concept is the opposite of George W. Bush.”

Santana, speaking to Peruvian journalists ahead of a Tuesday concert, said young people’s opposition to the war in Iraq is reaching the dimensions of the anti-Vietnam war sentiment in the 1970s.

“There is more value in placing a flower in a rifle barrel than making war,” he said. “As Jimi Hendrix used to say, musical notes have more importance than bullets.”

2. Carlos Rocks!
Thanks Kpete for posting this. If anyone's a Santana fan theres'a little review of a Santana concert in LA on March 2nd that was a benefit for civil rights leader Dolores Huerta the co-founder of the UFW!

4. I love Carlos!
What a caring, classy man! I believe, over the years, I have bought every CD/record he's ever made. I've probably been a fan for over 35 years now!
