BILL FRIST: PROVING AID CRITICS WRONG

Doctor Bill Frist is in Bangladesh working with Save the Children. He has a thoughtful blog on VOLPAC titled "Proving Aid Critics Wrong". Dr. Frist doesn't understand that it is people like he who are proving aid critics wrong, not the bureaucracy that administers American foreign aid. Dr. Frist represents a small group of Americans who are determined to use medicine as a currency for peace. I truly believe that he and others like him can change the world. Unfortunately our state department, where the foreign aid is administered by bureaucrats who have no understanding of what foreign aid is intended to do, continue to give America a black eye.
