Dear President Obama,

Congratulations on becoming the 44th President of the United States and as a citizen of this great nation, our beloved America, I wish you the very best in the coming four years.

First of all let me introduce myself to you and explain who I am and why I am writing to you. I am one of the sixty million (59,934,786 to be exact) Americans who voted for the other Democrat who ran on the Republican ticket.

I am a naturalized, ordinary American citizen with an extraordinary thirst for knowledge and information about America and Americans who influence or mess up our daily lives. Communicating with them is one of my hobbies. I have been engaged in this quest for the last fifty-five years of which thirty-five were spent here in America. When I came to America I had eight dollars with me and today - after thirty-five years - I may have four dollars and some change after paying off all “toxic assets” that accumulated during the past several years because of massive taxation and progressive politics of a criminal class who holds the majority shares in our public corporation called The United States of America.

I am an AMERICAN. That means I consider FREEDOM as my birth-right and that freedom comes from GOD, not GOV. That is why I "hold these truths to be self-evident that all men are created equal (and that goes for women too), that they are endowed by their CREATOR, (not their elected representatives) with certain inalienable rights, that among these are LIFE, LIBERTY and the PURSUIT of happiness." And I also completely agree with Thomas Jefferson that "to SECURE (not PAY FOR) these rights governments are instituted," and that "whenever any form of government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it and to institute new Government."

In the past thirty-five years I have lived in America I witnessed the gradual erosion of these basic truths, not because they are no longer valid, but because men with power will always subjugate their fellow-men, blackmail them and steal their freedom, their labor and their belongings.

In the past we called this this theft of other people’s rights and resources slavery. Today it is big, intrusive "government" which is destructive to the hopes, ambitions and dreams of millions of Americans. Those of us working in the non-government sector do not have any protection from the constant assault from 87,000 different forms of "governments" where 23,000,000 people have found a refuge for life-time-guaranteed jobs.

Those who run “the government” seem to hold on to a view that to protect this privileged class of bureaucrats governments are instituted, exactly opposite of what the Declaration of Independence states. Can you protect me and millions of others like me from obese governments whose primary function is to rob one group, count the money, keep a big chunk for themselves and re-distribute the rest to a permanent class of dependents.

I have a feeling that you, Mr. President, deep in your heart, is a true American, even though some of your past associations with certain Americans and their sermons leave some doubts in my mind. But when I read the letter that you wrote for Malia and Sasha in which you mention the importance of the words in The Declaration of Independence, I realize what a great father you are.

Mr. President, America is facing very serious, unprecedented challenges. You have just taken the pilot’s seat of US Air Flight 1549 and the plane is rolling on to the runway. Those sixty-nine million voters who put you on the captain’s seat were told by New York Times, CBS, TIME magazine and others that you are Captain Sully. I hope and pray you are. But when you promote trillion-dollar spending programs just keep one thing in mind, those Canada geese you see ahead, they look innocent but they are deadly. They represent free-loaders of all kinds, from big businesses to professional government-dependents. You can let a few into the engine - America’s economic engine - but too many, you are in peril.

I wish you the very best, Mr. President.

Sincerely,

The Blogtrotter
