Voting For You Was A Historical Obligation.

May
19

Dear President Barack Obama,

When you decided to minimize Pell Grant eligibility to 12 semesters you forgot about the young African Americans students who are now seniors. You did not seek to change Colleges and Universities policies, but instead you choose to penalize a group that is struggling to survive in this depleted economy. I know that your decision stems from a financial obligation, but this will only create more of a burden on the economy.

Your plan should have included a waiver to extend the 12 semester eligibility for seniors who needed a minimum of six classes to graduate. Require Universities and Colleges to remove prerequisites for seniors who are about to exhaust there financial eligibility. When a university or colleges amend a curriculum to include additional prerequisites this adds to financial aid bill. Are these amendments absolutely necessary, and to what extent? As soon as you cut the Pell Grant my school also increased tuition this was counter intuitive.

For seniors who need less than six credits to graduate and who are unemployed this spells disaster. In six months these students will be required to start paying back there student loans, and required to look for employment without a degree. Our competitive rights have been taken away from us, and without fair warning. So, I ask you Mr. President was this great for the economy, because it seems like a short term solution. In six months what will happen to the loan market?

Mr. President, I urge you to examine university rights to change curriculum at will policy. Student should only be responsible for meeting degree requirements that are in place when they declare there major. Surely this would reduce federal aid nationwide.

Discrimination Against Workers Over 50

May
17

Dear President Barack Obama,

Please address discrimination against older workers! At the age of 57 I have found that I am too old to work, and too young to retire. My retirement fund has been hit twice, once with 9/11 and then again with the Great Recession. Please consider lowering taxes on Social Security and retirement withdraws to compensate for all the money we boomers have lost. Something has to be done. How will we survive?

Respectfully,
JHH Read more about Discrimination Against Workers Over 50

California Medical Marijuana

May
15

Dear President Barack Obama,

The following is a sincere plea to the city of Pomona, California to allow good people the right to their freedom of choice and the right to gather as a collective and make exchange as expressed by the will of the People of California via Prop. 215.

President Barack Obama, four years ago I campaigned hard for you, believing all the while that you truly were going to help medical cannabis patients. You were nothing more than a big disappointment. Never the less you're still my choice for President and you have my support.

I don't think I will be putting in the hours like I did fours years ago, but you have my support! With that said, President Barack Obama, again the following is our approach to doing the right thing!

Thank you for your time Mr. President.

Very Sincerely,
Abel Read more about California Medical Marijuana

Swamp People is Inhumane

May
15

Dear President Barack Obama,

To be brief, "Swamp Eaters" is a show on TV that films humans traveling through bayous killing alligators with firearms. The winner is equated upon who kills the most weight. After watching only one episode, I immediately felt compelled to contact you.

Airing such activities on national TV goes against everything known to modern society. Thank you for reading my letter. Best of luck in the elections. Read more about Swamp People is Inhumane

African Americans

May

Dear President Barack Obama,

I just wanted to ask you to not forget about the people that helped to put you in office.

African Americans have struggled in America since our abduction. Its not just speculation that white hire white and white promote white. I don't mean these statements to be racially charged but, when will African Americans have an even shot a success? Please do something! Read more about African Americans

Freedom of Religion Right

May
15

Dear President Barack Obama,

You seem like a good understanding guy. Its been 70 years since pot has been made illegal in this country. In ancient times, it was known as "ganga". Ganga has been part of multiple religions in the spiritual sense.

It is the tree of Life. This country is based on freedom of religion–right? I am 100% against drugs, but drugs are man made and unhealthy for you. It will lower the crime rate. And, financially our country would gain because hemp is a fuel source. It can be used to make clothing and paper. It is easily grown and harvest. Ganga also produces more oxygen than most plants, so, our air would actually be cleaner.

All the trees and animals that died due to our overuse of resources is crap when most of our resources alone could have been extracted from hemp. It breaks my heart to see the world decay like it is.

From,
A worried American Read more about Freedom of Religion Right

Lower Interest Rate's for Everyone with Good Credit !

May
15

Dear President Barack Obama,

I would just like to say that this lower interest rate is something that everyone is enjoying but me and it is not right. I have been getting offers for my house and car payment in the mail for as little as 3%, but as soon as they find out I am unemployed they say no! My credit score is about 777. I have never been late on a payment. I understand their point of view they are looking out for themselves to stop the bleeding of the foreclosure's on the banks, but your credit score should mean more than it does.

The people that need help the most are not getting help at all. And while I am sending this e-mail that most likely will never be read, could you also stop the speculation on a barrel of gas from the people on Wall Street. It adds $20.00 per barrel as I am sure you know. These gas prices are really hurting all of us. Read more about Lower Interest Rate's for Everyone with Good Credit !

I Voted For You With Great Hope

May
15

Dear President Barack Obama,

I am saddened by your passive demeanor, I thought you would be a stand up guy that would kick it–you are not giving us the feeling of being the MAN.

If you want my vote this time you need to clean house. Start with Valarie Jarett for not representing you in a positive manner. I voted for you. Think it out and step it up and find your mojo again.

STAND UP, SPEAK UP, AND BE THE MAN I VOTED FOR! Read more about I Voted For You With Great Hope
