Querido Señor Rubio: I am not a Republican. However, after years of studying Plato, I have taken to heart his message from The Republic, and consider it my personal responsibility, as a member of a democracy, to educate myself about the relevant issues in our society. And so I tuned into the recent Republican presidential debate. And I have to admit I was very proud of you, for our backgrounds are extremely similar. I too was born in Miami, the daughter of Cuban exiles; my father was imprisoned by the Castro government. I grew up playing in the streets of Little Havana. I attended and got my Bachelor's degrees from Florida International University, where you currently teach some courses. So, despite our political disagreement, my heart welled with pride seeing you up on that stage....

Dear Mr. Rand Paul, I recently read a transcript from your appearance on Meet The Press: If there is a war on woman, I think they've won ... The women in my family are doing great, and that's what I see in all the statistics coming out ... In fact, I worry about our young men sometimes because I think the women are outcompeting the men in our world ... Judging by your sample size of approximately four women, it seems you're not too interested in stories that don't revolve around you and your family. But before you go making such claims about "what all the statistics are saying" these days, there are a few you didn't mention that I'd like to bring to your attention. Although women account for over half of the world's population, we account for over two thirds of the world's...

To Governor Scott Walker: Until you pushed through your anti-union bill attacking the public employees of your state, I had never heard my 88-year-old grandmother call somebody a douchebag [...]. Watch the video below.

Dear David Cameron, Theresa May, Nigel Farage, the Daily Express, protesters in Germany, Katie Hopkins, Philip Hammond, anyone who has ever written a disparaging comment on a Mail Online article, police in Hungary, the governments of Bulgaria, the Czech Republic, Estonia, Hungary, the Netherlands, Poland and Slovakia, the people of Britain, Czech police, tourists in Kos, Tony Abbott, cartoonists, Ukip MEPs and people on Twitter. Over the past few weeks and months you've been responsible for spreading anti-migrant and anti-refugee sentiment. Some of you have used dehumanising language. Some of you have reacted to this language by misunderstanding why people are trying to reach Europe. Some of you have hauled refugees off trains and written numbers on their arms. Some of you...

I thought since you're so familiar with Mr. Trudeau and call him Justin, I'd be familiar with you and call you Stephen. The water is rising fast, Stephen. You're pretty good on the piano. Maybe you've played a little number by Bob Dylan called "The Times They Are A-Changin'" Come gather 'round [Stephen] Wherever you roam And admit that the waters Around you have grown And accept it that soon You'll be drenched to the bone If your time to you Is worth savin' Then you better start swimmin' Or you'll sink like a stone For the times they are a-changin'. As with Richard Nixon and Watergate, the crime is not so much the initial blunder (paying Mr. Duffy $90,000 to keep quiet), but the lengths you've gone to cover up the crime. You did tell us some months...

Mr Trump, DO NOT TAKE THE PLEDGE! The only way to keep the Republicans honest is to carry that dagger with you at ALL times. It might even be possible to win for the first time in a century as an independent. Look how Bernie Sanders is doing – he's not even a Democrat for Pete's sake. If you ran as an independent with Sarah Palin as Veep you'd probably win without a runoff. If you give up that leverage, they will screw you for sure. Think about it.

To Freedom Loving American and Canadian Citizens Hungry For The Truth... I hope you all appreciate the truth. Because sharing this truth with you has caused me six years of separation from my wife and children, and years of death threats/terrorist acts on my wife's home in Canada (two shootings "investigated" by the Peel Police Department). Out of all 15 of the government and corporate crimes I have reported since 1975 this one here has hurt more Canadians and Americans and overall, is linked to over $1 billion of illegal profits with overlapping links to Enron, Canada's largest smuggling ring, the real reason Noriega was kidnapped, and why Wall Street banksters will never be prosecuted nor jailed. As of now, five people (witnesses) including two of my personal friends have been...

Dear Senator Sanders, You've come a long way without my advice, but now that you are running for president, you may be interested in these suggestions: 1. You've taken progressive positions on "decent paying job programs," such as investing in repairing our country's public works, raising the minimum wage, strengthening labor laws, opposing the good-job-exporting, corporate-managed trade treaties such as NAFTA and WTO, and creating a Youth Job Corps. Now you need to make major addresses in greater detail on each topic before large audiences. The media coverage of these events will be very helpful during primary season. 2. You need to identify with local and regional issues as you travel around the country and appear with the citizen or labor groups championing these pathways to...

Dear Ms. Davis, What is religious freedom, anyway? Should a Muslim be able to exercise their religion freely in the United States the same as a Roman Catholic? Or a Buddhist? Or a Sikh? Or even an Atheist? Well, every precedent says yes, they all have the same right to freely practice their religion as one another, provided they're not causing anyone any physical harm or inciting violence through their practice of religion. But how, exactly, does this work, anyway? If one only looks at their own personal freedoms, then it's clear: you get to grant or deny anyone anything you want, using your beliefs as a hammer to use on anyone you judge to not fit within that belief system. But one's own personal freedoms aren't the only ones that matter. You're not the center of the universe...
