Dear Bill Clinton,
I first got to know you when I was a student at Newcastle University in 1992 watching your election debates in my bedroom on a rubbish old TV. You were talking about how you could build an economy that worked for everyone and I was hanging on every word. It wasn’t just what you were saying, although I did passionately agree with you. It was also how you said it. I was studying politics, and watching you I thought: this is what I want to be like and how I want people to see me. You were, it felt to me at the time, the embodiment of the values of JFK – selfless public service.
Your election the following year ended an era in which the Republican Party had controlled the White House continuously for 12 years, and for 20 of the previous 24 years. I came from a small...

There are too many of you, and quite frankly your types are acting more rabid than ever.
Even as you bemoan letting in migrants and refugees because they "make your nation less civilized" as you sit and drink your wine and as some of them drown in conditions that would leave you crying like the egocentric ... people you are.
I guess you MUST take to stuffing strawman arguments (They're going to push us to Sharia, even though there's no way they could reach citizenship status in that case!) (They'll make us less civilized!) into the mouths of people you've never even known, because it's pretty clear that you can't live as an example. I say this as a civilized individual who is talking to some... beings (excluding the reader if they happen to have actual empathy). A very delusional...

Dear Bernie Sanders, you owe me dinner. About a week ago I received a telephone call from one of your Vegas based volunteers. She invited me to the Battle Born First in the West Dinner. I was ecstatic to receive the call, telling the volunteer that I had wanted to attend the event but (as a student) it was out of my budget. Actually I could have swung the price of one $125 ticket, but I have three very politically active teenage daughters and I hated to attend without them. I asked if I could bring a guest and she replied that I could bring one. Then she stated since my daughter was on her list as well, we could each attend along with a guest. The volunteer stressed that we must all have volunteered for Bernie to be invited, so I thought "Wow, we must have gotten on some exclusive list"....

Dear Gentlemen,
Giving us all lip service about how you will put a leash on Wall Street banksters means N O T H I N G unless you are willing to cut off the head of the snake. Americans are no longer ignorant sheep. 2008 was a painful wake-up call. 30% of Wall Street revenues are laundered drug monies and IT CAN BE PROVEN if people stop being murdered, jailed on false charges, or exiled to other countries while their American and Canadian families are terrorized by American agent thugs. This is what I am talking about: http://www.worldlawdirect.com/forum/law-news/91146-uncle-sam-seized-book-manuscripts-protect-jeb-bush.html#post394936

From the Freedom Movement of Iran
Tehran, August 10, 2015
Honorable Senators and Representatives of the American People,
As you know, the eyes of the world rest on your deliberations pertaining to the nuclear agreement signed in Vienna in July between Iran and six other nations, including the United States. While the words and actions of powerful leaders in Iran and other countries have been the main focus of the discussion so far, I appeal to you to also take note of the views of those of us inside Iran who have struggled for decades against their excesses — and paid a heavy personal price for doing so.
It is clear to us that there is a well-funded and powerful campaign to discredit the path of negotiations and to block America’s participation in this international...

Dear senators:
Thank you for your letter of March 9 explaining your system of government. We were unfamiliar with the complexity of your laws. For three years we have been negotiating a nuclear energy agreement with your president. We now realize our mistake. As your letter makes clear, the authority to establish such agreements on behalf of your country rests with your Congress.
We are in your debt for this clarification. Moreover, your letter has prompted us to undertake a broader study of the American political system. What we have learned has opened our eyes. For 35 years, we have treated you as an adversary. Our intelligence agencies told us that your culture and your political system were radically different from ours. We now understand that we were misled. Your country is...

Mr. Mayor Rahm Emanuel,
I’m a concerned citizen of Chicago. I never had much love for who you were or what you stood for (Not sure I ever really new what you stood for) . As a father of two boys one in his first year of college and one in middle school. I try to instill in them a love for humanity in all its forms, a love that realizes we as humans all have flaws. We must accept our fellow man at his or her word. You “Mister Mayor” have broken a trust so deeply and so profoundly that only shows a disdain for your fellow man that I believe will require the Department of Justice involvement to settle, a trust you will never restore. As a father yourself maybe you can help me understand how a man so calculating and so powerful can withhold justice or allow his staff to withhold...

Governor Bentley, I urge you to publicly support Chief Justice Roy Moore as he fights to uphold the law. It is the duty of every public official to continue to uphold the law, even when others will not. That is why all officials take an oath to uphold the state constitution in every area that it does not contradict the federal constitution. It is very clear that Alabama's marriage law is in perfect harmony with the constitution, and the fact that a biased federal court said otherwise cannot trump your oath of office or the Chief justice's oath of office to uphold the state constitution. Please do your duty that you were sworn to uphold.
The duty of the Governor is not to blindly comply with every beck and call of the supreme court. That would render the office of governor nothing...

Dear Mayor Allen,
I am an attorney, but I write you today as a native of Concordia Parish and as a grand-daughter.
Months ago, my grandfather was ticketed for speeding through your town. My grandfather insists that he was not driving over the 35mph speed limit, but was stopped just the same. The fine for such an offense is less than $200, but my grandfather insisted that he was not speeding so I encouraged him to request a hearing in lieu of paying the fine. I offered to attend the hearing with my grandfather, but was called to court on another matter. Attempts to reschedule the hearing were not successful, and I assured my grandfather that everything would be just fine. After all, he was simply going before the Mayor's Court to contest a speeding ticket. For added assurance,...

Dear Mr. Trump,
Securing OUR southern border is tantamount to domestic security and paramount to decent wages for AMERICAN workers. Your plan to build a wall between the United States and Mexico is a good idea, but such a wall would ultimately be rendered ineffective in accomplishing its’ primary objective of curtailing illegal immigration. As we all know, elaborate, sophisticated tunnel systems have been constructed and are currently being utilized and expanded by Mexican drug cartels. A wall will not thwart such efforts. To the contrary, a giant wall would drive more human trafficking underground while increasing profits for the cartels. Instead of paying individual “coyotes,” more Mexicans would turn to the cartels to reach the Land of Opportunity. An unintended consequence of the...
