Darwin's Orphans Mark Salow

A pop star that becomes president leads a new peace movement in the future. This movement is mirrored by a counter culture of violence. Bobby Joe's life changes as it turns from music to politics with two people shaping his world: his insightful lover Talia and his mentor Francisco the creator of the movement. They converge through a series of events that bring them together as they face opposition from The Defenders of Natural Freedoms. Under Bobby Joe's leadership, society's condition changes for the better but arms industries suffer in this new peaceful world. Energy is now clean and politics are harmonious in a global society that accepts peace and rejects violence in any form. Twelve step programs are there to help people suffering with the affliction of violent tendencies. This global paradigm shift makes great things happen in space exploration, transportation and hunger elimination. The remaining violence-loving people, Darwin's Orphans, are put out in this new world order. They create their own counter-movement and strike back at the world created by Bobby Joe.
