She is respected by all her colleagues but viewed differently by them depending on their race. However, she can fit in with all the clicks in her office and is able to establish a relationship with the VP. This leads to her demanding he empty certain federal accounts to accounts she beleives will save the earth and combat poverty and genocide. However, the VP seems to think he will catch her and save the nation from loosing money despite for good causes.
"Goddess: Where are you going Bobo? Bobo: What? What do you mean where am I going"
page 183
This quote comes in the section Interview at the Total Liberation Café. In this passage an appearingly more insightful goddess is talking to bob, which means stupid in spanish. Bobo cannot see past the short term and is caught up in the grind of life. The goddess tries to enlighten him to the meaning of his life. Bobo however is not receptive and continues to be short sightened and not philosophical. The author is stressing the importance of putting life into context and thinking about a meaninguf way to live.
