My Letter to the President

Dear Mr. Obama,

I am writing you today with hope. Hope that you will make a difference. I am concerned about the many issues we face as a nation so I thought I would share some of these needs with you. I am aware that change does not come quick and that you alone cannot make change in this world, without the help from us. I will do my individual best to help out and try to put in as much effort as you, well maybe not as much as you, because I know your plate is full, but the little help I can provide for myself, family and community. I have faith in you and your ability to fix these issues. I believe that every step you take and every move you make will surely make a difference in making our America a better place.

I am not asking for everything to change immediately, but what I am asking is for you to mindful of the many concerns we all have. We all have different needs and wants and I know it will be difficult to fulfill them all but knowing that you hear our cries and will make a conscious effort to make change is already enough for me.

But one of my main concerns is the economy. Money makes the world go around and we cannot survive without it. Many people are losing jobs and hours are being cut. It is a struggle for working class families who depend on that income to provide for their families. I do not have a family but it is already a struggle for me to even take care of myself. I know people have become greedy and careless and that is why we are in such a financial deficit. I do not have many concerns only because I know that change will not come quickly. We can only handle so much at once and I do not want to put to much pressure on you than there already is. I will address my concerns one at a time. We can make change slowly but surely and I will make my efforts in helping as well.

I hope that I do not come off as not believing in your abilities, I do, but I also am aware that so many people are expecting so much out of you but don't understand that it isn't just your responsibility but ours as well. Thank you for taking the time out to read my letter. I am greatful to have a president like you, someone who is concerned about our issues on the same level as the majority of us.

Sincerely,

Jennifer Gonzales
