Dear Mr. President,
To you I am just a child, a child in this big old world, someone not really important but there for wasted space. I wright this letter to tell you of one thing and one thing only, My name is Wendi Deason I am the only daughter that my father has. I live here in Kentucky and pray every day that god will change your views and let my daddy come home, My dad was sent to Afghanistan January of this year, he has missed everything my 18th birthday and even my mothers funeral. Some people think that your doing a great job and others believe that your work here is in vain. I am writing you this letter so all can see that I am my own person and this is what I think of you.
Ever since you have came into office our country has went down hill, we have lost many good men thanks to you and your selfish ways, do you really believe that sending more men, to there death will help anything. I have to live with the fact that my father is over there in that god forsaken country and you don't give a damn what happens to him or anyone else. Well Mr. President I am one citizen that has taken this opportunity to speak out and tell you just what I think of you. Your the one that sends our fathers, brothers, husbands and our loved ones to war, but when it comes down to it you don't want any part of it, this is were a woman should come in and say when it is enough, You've done nothing to help the united states nothing at all. All you have done is cause us pain and misery.
I can understand the pressures of war and piece but enough is enough, you have made your point you have cought who you wanted to catch now send our men and women back home, this war is so damn pointless that I myself believe that you don't know what the hell your doing anymore, if it were up to me I would have voted your ass out of office along time ago. To me we should bring President Bill Clinton back into office, yes I know that he has done some things in the white house that are unsound but if you look back in history there was another president and his brother that slept with Marylin Manrow in the white house as well, I think it was the Rosevelts but my mind has slipped at this moment and I can't remember the exact name, So Mr.President I guess I have said my piece and listen well there is no more since in this world now that you are here.
It is getting to the point now were children can't even go out into there own front yard and play without having to worry if there going to get shot down by the other angery americans or if the world is just going to come to a dramatic end, if your planning on scaring the americans you have done so Mr. President now stop with the games so we can all continue on with our lives.
Thanks For reading,
Wendi E. Deason

HERE HERE! I so think we should bring back Bill Clinton. He was a great President. I thought you had a lot of good points... However, there were A LOT of spelling errors. There were many times that you mistook the word "there" for the word "they're". Also, Marylin's last name is "Monroe" and, although you got the wrong President (it was actually Kennedy), the name is "Roosevelt". You also had many run-on sentences. There were a lot of commas where there should have been periods. Sorry, I'm a grammar freak. Other than all that, I really liked it, I think I would agree with most of what you said. Thanks for entering!
