A Letter to the President of the United States of America




Dear Mr. President,

How are you?  I am so happy with what you have been doing as President since I last wrote to you.  I am following your activities with much interest! 

First of all, thank you for negotiating with Chairman Kim Jong Un regarding the denuclearization of North Korea.  This is an issue that citizens of my age group are very concerned about!  I ask you to continue your negotiation efforts with this country and its leaders so that our country is more secure and safe. 

Secondly, I applaud you for honoring the military!  I hope to serve in the Air Force one day, and your support of the troops thrills all of us in the Civil Air Patrol.  I have served in the search and rescue division now for almost a year. I hope to serve my country to the fullest extent of my ability all of my life. Having a strong leader like you makes it something positive, because you have our backs!

A concern that many of us younger citizens have is that our country is under attack by various groups.  One of our issues  (my peers and my concerns) is that the country is at risk for falling into a worldview of Islam.   In America, many look at Islam with wonder and glowing interest.  That is how it is presented in our classrooms, and other places in our community.  I have learned that we have several predominant Islamic leaders in our government.  Ninth graders are noticing!  Some of the statements made by these leaders are shocking.   I find the ideology of Islam to be toxic to our republic, and potentially damaging to our freedoms.  I want you to know that I pray about these things daily.  I pray for this nation, and for you, Mr. President!  

This is a confusing and challenging time to live in American culture.  Please hold fast to your promise to your citizens that the USA will NEVER be a communist country.  I support you in this wholeheartedly!

Mr. President, I admire you and thank you for putting America first… to make America Great Again.  I, too, care so much about America, the leaders, and the citizens of this country.  I want to challenge you to continue to fight for freedom, for small business owners, and for a safe planet for all of us.

I humbly thank you for taking time to read my letter. 

Most respectfully,
