Writing Assignment 4, Draft 2

Congradulation on being ellected! Although I am too young to vote now,
you would have recieved my vote if I were of age. I am honored to call
you my president. You are have intelligence that could surpass the
intelect of any president before you. This, I know, will help you
during the next four (hopefully eight) years. As you have stated, we
are in crisis, and I have a few suggestions on what issues to tackle in
your first year in the white house.

Millions of lives are being affected by the war in Iraq. I believe
this issue should be addressed first, because of the vast amount of
people affected by the war. I don't know much about politics or
miltary, but I don't see how this war is helping anything. If it were
my decision, all troops would be withdrawn from Iraw, and returned to
their families. However, I know this is not possible because the
American millitary has a reputation to uphold (reguarding its stamana).


The second issue to be addressed is the economy. If the world ran on
love and puppies, then we would never have to address these problems.
But unfortanetly, money controls alot of the world. IÕm not very
educated about the way the economy works either, but if there were a
way to reboot the market and increase stock market productivity, many
other problems could be solved. I really agree with you tax plan, even
if some perceve it as "socialist". Your like a moderrn, and moderate
Robin Hood!

Education is deffinetly a topic I know you're considering. No Child
Left Behind has be1en a nightmare for teachers and students. The amount
huge of testing and standerdazation has compromised America's children's
learning expiriences. Because the teachers are have to teach their
students required material over and over again (because if the children
donÕt pass the tests, the school wonÕt get government funding),
alternative teaching styles arnÕt possible. If different kinds of
teaching were possible for teachers, the relm of learning would be
greater improved.

Being able to say I was alive when the first African American president
was in office is something I treasure. But the reason I belive you can
change the country is not simply based on the color of your skin. I
know you will adress crucial issues, and address them with the up most
Obamanocity.

Dear President Obama,

I am honored to call you my president. You are have intelligence that could surpass the intelect of any president before you. This, I know, will help you during the next four (hopefully eight) years. As you have stated, we are in crisis, and I have a few suggestions on what issues to tackle in your first year in the white house.

Being able to say I was alive when the first African American president was in office is something I treasure. But on top of that, I know you will adress crucial issues, and address them with the up most Obamanocity.
