Dear Mr President my letter to Obama

Dear Mr president,

I heard you speak of ending Government corruption and greed I have been now for over 2 yrs fighting to pass a law to reform the way child services operates too many children are dying and being removed falsely for the sole purpose of the almighty dollar this to me is blood money human life has value and when one ends a life no matter the level of involvement they are held accountable.

I am asking you Mr President no I am begging you to bring back to America the peoples rights their constitutional rights their civil liberties that are being violated and disregarded for federal funding children are dying Mr president for state kick back funds I am asking you to put an end to this I voted for you as did millions you need to make good now on your word and stop the corruption and greed killing America's children our future the future of your country.

American families are being destroyed broken apart driven to even suicide please Pass Shavon's law every state every child the name for one child become the savior for all children I was told they are state paid and state protected I will never get this law passed I ask you Mr President how many more will die before you do.

Shavon deserves justice & recognition as do all murdered children and their families please pass her law and give back the people their country ,their rights make the system work for the ones in need of it.

The words you have spoken on our civil liberties and justice

What we cannot continue to do is operate as if we are the weakest nation in the world instead of the strongest one, because that’s not who we are and that’s not what the US has been about, historically. It is starting to warp our domestic policies, as well. We haven’t even talked about civil liberties and the impact of that politics of fear–what that has done to us, in terms of undermining basic civil liberties in this country, what it has done in terms of our reputation around the world.

I will never forget that the only reason I’m standing here today is because somebody, somewhere stood up for me when it was risky. Stood up when it was hard. Stood up when it wasn’t popular. And because that somebody stood up, a few more stood up. And then a few thousand stood up. And then a few million stood up. And standing up, with courage and clear purpose, they somehow managed to change the world.

Today we are engaged in a deadly global struggle for those who would intimidate, torture and murder people for exercising the most basic freedoms. If we are to win this struggle and spread those freedoms, we must keep our own moral compass pointed in a true direction.

We have been told we cannot do this by a chorus of cynics who will only grow louder and more dissonant in the weeks to come. We've been asked to pause for a reality check. We've been warned against offering the people of this nation false hope. But in the unlikely story that is America, there has never been anything false about hope. For when we have faced down impossible odds; when we've been told that we're not ready, or that we shouldn't try, or that we can't, generations of Americans have responded with a simple creed that sums up the spirit of a people. Yes we can.

Barack Obama Quotes On Constitution


I am a great admirer of our founding charter and its resolve to prevent theocracies from forming and its resolve to prevent disruptive strains of fundamentalism from taking root in this country. I think there is an enormous danger on the part of public figures to rationalize or justify their actions by claiming God’s mandate. I don’t think it’s healthy for public figures to wear religion on their sleeve as a means to insulate themselves from criticism, or dialogue with people who disagree with them.
