Director of Homeland Security Tom Ridge has announced his resignation, effective in February. Also announcing his resignation is Kweisi Mfume, the head of the NAACP. Frankly, that news was long overdue. The organization is under a cloud of investigations, and their membership has been on the decline.

If the replacements are chosen wisely, the world will be a better place.
