Cultivate life!

Dear future president.
I pray that you please reconsider your position on abortion. Life is not in our hands,not for us to control. We cannot murder without defacing our souls and God's very will.

Health Insurance

Jerome Calvitti — Mon, 17 Nov 2008 20:50:26 +0000

Dear Mr. President,
I would like to know if there is any way that you can look into health care system to have a plan for Self and One person to cut costs. Right now there is just Self only and Self and Family.Here again the middle person has to pay more.
Thank you, Mr.Jerome Calvitti

My Prayer for You

Dear Mr. President Elect,
God has put you into this important position and you are accountable to Him first and foremost. You must become the servant of all. Integrity is the bedrock of Christian leadership. Admit your mistakes and confront others in authority who do wrong. Don't seek our approval. Earn our respect by doing what is right. Be faithful to God and first ask for God's help and guidance in all that you. If you are close to God in all decisions you must make, God will let you feel his mercy, peace and love. However, if you are not doing his will, you will feel unrest and axiety. Ask for His help and trust only in the Father, Son and Holy Spirit for all your needs. I will be praying for you and your family. Don't be afraid to ask us to pray for specific things. Man can achieve fame. God grants Greatness.

What If?

Dear Mr. President,

At this point I am sure you are quite overwhelmed by your new role. Lots of decisions to make, policies to think through, and plans to execute. As I am a believer of the Bible, I believe that God has given you this position for a reason and you are not here by mistake.

As you begin to move into your new role I ask you one question: What if you decided to make every decision, every choice, building every strategy, and establishing every policy through the lens of the Scripture? What if you decided to commit to doing that for just the next 30 days. It does not even have to be while you are in the White House, but rather now as you plan and prepare. I assure you that if you committed the next 30 days to running everything through the filter of God's Word, I have no doubt that you, your family, and our nation would be in a much greater position. God blesses those who are obedient to His Word. I ask you to be a leader who rises above and set yourself apart from those who have come before you.

Dear the next president,
First of all, I`m fairly sure the president will never read this, but I do know that someone will, so here goes.
I know that whichever candidate you are, you will make mistakes in your term as our president. I just wanted you to know that if and when you do, as long as you admit it I will not blame you for them. Also, I recommend that you don`t worry about what the people of America think of you. Don`t pay attention to the approval ratings; we all mess up sometimes and you`ll never get everyone to like you. But we all know that there is a reason you are president, and we can`t change the fact that you are. I hope you lead our country well, and will support you (whoever you are).
Okay, I suppose I don`t matter much, I`m just a 13 year old girl. And even though I have an opinion at my age, it`s not of great significance since I can`t vote. I have been told I`m smart, and will make a good leader… but those phrases are always followed by "someday", "when you`re older", or "unless you screw up". I`m no genius, but I do think I`ll get into a good enough college, hoepfully publish a book, and maybe get into politics. Who knows.
Sorry, I got a little off subject. If you don`t read any of this accept these last two lines I`ll be happy:
Lead with wisdom. God bless you.
Love,
Stacie Worrel

Citizenship

Marlene — Thu, 06 Nov 2008 14:40:14 +0000

Dear Current or Future President,

I am a seventeen year old soon to be eighteen on 11/09/08. I have had a very important concern for over eleven years. I am writing to ask you if you can help me acquire my citizenship. For fifteen years, I have considered myself Haitian-American. In those past years, my family has been trying to so hard to make me a United States citizen. We have been going through my adoption agency the Three Rivers and have been going through the INS (Immigration and Naturalization Services) and we have been ignored while the process has been drawn out. The INS has repeatedly told us that we must get my citizenship before I am eighteen years of age. They also told us that we must have a sponsor and that we have to have a certain amount of income to achieve this. We were also informed that before I get my official citizenship, I must get a green card. This of course would take a ridiculous amount of money and time. My parents are not able to work, they are disabled, and so coming up with the money is very hard for them. We have looked for anyone that is willing to sponsor me, but no one came through. They are worried that they would be responsible for my medical bills and such. My family is not what you call rich or middle class, we are happy and comfortable. Without my citizenship, I cannot vote, I cannot get a job, I cannot leave the country, I cannot get any acceptances to any college, and I cannot get any scholarships. I want to be able to call myself a United States citizen because of the pride that comes with it; I want to have that pride. If you can please help me acquire my citizenship, my pride will be raised, and I can finally go around exclaiming that I am a United States citizen.

Sincerely,

Marlene Gail Noble

Things that can help

Kylee — Thu, 06 Nov 2008 02:07:41 +0000

Dear next president,
You can help us by lowering the gas prices in Georgia. You could tell people to start or keep recycling to stop global warming; you could withdraw the troops from Iraq and Afghanistan, stop letting people smuggle in illegal drugs, and don't let illegal immigrants take jobs here in ths U.S.. You could lower taxes, raise money and donate it to the organization of americans that gives food to the families in Kenya, let pilots carry guns with them in planes to prevent highjackers taking over the planes, raise money and buy food, clothes, and supplies to charity, and lastly raise money and spend it on supplies for schools.

Thankyou for reading!

Kylee - age 10

Congratulations

Matthew — Thu, 06 Nov 2008 01:54:05 +0000

I would like to start of by saying Congratulations. I'm a high school student at international high school in NY. I'm 16 years old. If i would have the right to vote I would surely vote for you. In my history class we have been learning a lot about politics and goverment lately. Also we have been looking at the ads that each candidate made. We had several projects like making an ad for a president of your choice and much more fun stuff. But my main point in this letter are issues that are going on in and outside of USA. One of them is War in Iraq and the other is education.
I have been reading lots of letter on many sites and i was relly touched by one of the letters. Some person in NY had a friend that was serving in Iraq and he had his arm and an leg blown of and was brutaly burned. I think that should be changed becuase many more people are experiancing the same fate or worst. Also not only that people are dying, money is being spent on the war at big ammounts. That money could be used to play for education becuase the money that is needed for college is very high. I'm kind of scared becuase my family is not rich and it's very hard to get a full schoolarship. I will have to work hard to get my education and I wont be able to go to a very good college if this will not change. So i ask you dear Mr.President to try to change this country for better.

Once again Thank you.

Opportunity

Russ — Wed, 05 Nov 2008 21:27:56 +0000

Opportunity. Hope. Change. Words that define our nation and words that have been the foundation of your campaign. Please do not let power and people with agendas derail the your ideals and disenfranchise the next generation of American's.

Please seek not what is expedient or popular but what is right. Not what is right as defined by culture or opinion but by God. In the last few years we have missed the heart of God and I encourage you to be a leader like Jesus. Do the hard things,sacrifice self and recognize you answer not to the people but God almighty.

Bless you as you lead us. We follow you and pray that you are following God.
