Dear sir

I voted for you and campaigned for you. We need to concern ourselves with domestic problems. You know as well as I do the infrastructure of this country is fallilng apart. You spoke of this during your campaign. We both know that jobs leaving this country hurts our economy. If your not working how can you buy goods and services. If you bring in illegal aliens to undercut the American worker you drive down wages and thusly the American standard of living.

I want to hear more about Detroitistan, Chicagostan,Californiastan instead of Pakistan,Waziristan, Turkmenastan,kurdsetan and the other places that I dont understand we are investing time and lives in. We all know big business will never share the wealthwith the average american. Its corporate interest who are pushing this imperialistic agenda. Its silly to think that America can win over people by spending money and erecting a few buildings after bombing and killing hundreds and thousands of Iraqi people. That is against human nature.

9/11 occurred because of the poor ingress and egress into and out of this country. The hijackers watched how poor the easy to get into the country and they took advantage of it like millions of other illegal aliens do all the time. That is what caused 9/11. You cant stop people from joining the socalled terrorist groups in foreign countries no more than you can stop people from joining the KKK in this country. People can join what they wanna join. This country will be safe when the boarders are finally secured proplerly. Unsecure boarders have caused tremendous damage to the infrastructure of this country.

You should impose on countries like Mexico and the southern American countries who are allowing their poor to immigrate into this country illegally so they can send money back to the same countries to spend their money on housing and employing these people expost haste. Its is assinine for the American business community to employ these illegals and break the law while at the same time claiming to be so patriotic and on top of that wanting the average American to go out and defend and if need be give his life for their interest.

Infrstructure, Infrastructure, Infrastructure in America that should come first. We have as you know millions of Americans who are homeless. Many are veterans . Washington D.C. has a homeless population. Please deal with it.

You are supposed to be about change. Dont flip the script on us now. We medicare for all. We need medicare for all.
Allowing people into this country who have a deadly disease is highly dangerous. People have quarantined other people with deadly disease all through history. That is how you cure a disease by isolating the virus. Why then would you sign into law the right for illegals sick with a fatal disease to come into this country and seek Medical aid when millions of Americans go without proper Health care? Is this the Gay lobby again.

Please sir please take into consideration the issues I rasied and act on them accordingly.

Thank you

Touraco you raised some very valid points. We do need to spend more time and money on infrastructure and matters "at home" but we also have a responsibility in the global community to Americans (and non-Americans) abroad. If we simply pull out of foreign locations we run the risk of alienating allies and leaving American business interests and American lives abroad in a dangerous position.

I can only imagine how tough it is to be in President Obama's shoes now. Every group wants to claim responsibility for getting him elecetd and also the spoils that go along with the victory. [In addition to those problems you have the Republicans who want him to fail at all costs....even if the country falls as well!] However, like in any big family you can't give everyone all they want ALL the time. We must compromise and make tough decisions.

I have faith in Mr. Obama and I am sure we will alll be pleased with his decsions and leadership.
