Dear Barack Obama #2

President Barack Obama, Congratulations on your recent presidency! You now have a very huge responsibility! And during a time of so much economic turmoil! It’s an honor to be writing to you; however I have a few questions on what you could do to better this country and some suggestions.
One major question I have is how would you have handled September 11 if this crisis had happened on your watch? Would you have handled it the same as former President Bush? (Who I personally had little problems with because he kept us safe over the 8 years.)What would you have done differently if you would have done something differently?
Another major question I have is why do you want to bring the troops home, when war is clearly nowhere near to being over? Why are you putting a time stamp on the war? One thing I think could be changed is your plan for the war. There is a proper time and place for the pullout of troops from Iraq.Everyone wants to end it (including me), but there is no way possible right now. We are stuck. You can argue whether we went in the first place was good or not, it doesn't matter, point is we are still there and we can’t leave until the job is finished, otherwise all the soldiers who fought and died would have died in vain. We can't leave now otherwise everything will go back to the way it was and we would have circled around and completed nothing! And you shouldn't put a time limit on this war it is extremely dangerous and the Iraqis need help and we are there to help them until they can do it on their own And they are nowhere near ready for that yet! We can't back out until our mission is completed!
One of the important issues I believe in is abortion, I am pro-life but it should be up to the states to decide, but my issue is with your quote "I've got two daughters. 9 years old and 6 years old. I am going to teach them first of all about values and morals. But if they make a mistake, I don't want them punished with a baby."-Barack Obama
Since when is a human life a punishment? All human life is equal baby or not, a child is not a punishment. It was her choice, her responsibility. Unless it wasn’t her choice, but it’s still not a punishment. Where do you think hope resides? The government, The American people, You, God? How do you define the word hope?
Thanks for taking the time to read this And I would like you to seriously consider what I have written and actually think about it and May God give you the wisdom that you need and the strength and courage to handle such a heavy responsibility may he be with you always as you face these very tough decisions. God bless you and your family. Brittanie Ford
