Name: Eion DreadlessRas on Feb 21, 2008Comments: I support this without hesitation. Bob Marley has done so much for Jamaica and the human spirit than any other Jamaican has ever done. One cold, rainy, winter day I jumped into a cab. I was having a bad day. The cab driver, who is African, had a Bob Marley CD playing. During the trip I listened and sang softly to the songs. The cab driver was doing the same. At one point I said out loud, "You can never go wrong with a Bob Marley tune, uh." The cab driver agreed. My gloomy spirit was changed for the rest of the day. Long live the spirit of Bob Marley - National Hero of Jamaica.Flag

Name: Anonymous on Feb 21, 2008Comments: This honor is way past due. Had Marley been completely white, they would have statues off him all over the world and called him genius/ amazing. We need a black man to have and honor as our own. This should not have come to all these discussions, there is no need for a vote it should be done and it should be recognized and it should be a law.Flag

Name: Anthony Chance on Feb 21, 2008Comments: I support this petition to make Bob Marley a National Hero in Jamaica. Bob's life work have set the stage for Jamaica and the world it it amazing how a person just in his mid thirties could have been so powerful. Truly a humanitarian and great lover of the human race. Selah!Flag

Name: Andrea Bullens on Feb 22, 2008Comments: We need to get rid of the politicians in Jamaica - they are not visionaries but a bunch of gold diggers - they recognise the man only after the rest of the world did. After all - the 'Rasta man was the Black heart man who should be feared' is what we were taught as kids and that's not so long ago. As Bunny Wailer said - they use to laugh at them for eating ital food and vegetables - now the world is encouraging the vegetarian lifestyle for good health and longevity - so now - who has the vision - Give the man what's due to him. After all when I travel to the deep parts of Africa and they ask me where I'm from and I say Jamaica - they don't have a clue - when I say same place as Bob Marley - they all know where......so Fire for politrixers the RASTAMAN.Flag

Name: Anonymous on Feb 22, 2008Comments: No one has brought as much notoriety to the Island's cause socially, geographically and musically as Bob Marley and the Wailers did. He took Jamaicas music to a new summit and stamp Jamaicans voice on it. Look beyond the hair and personal idiosyncrasies. He is someone to look up to, a National Hero for Jamaica.Flag
