Letter
We need a president who knows his history
I am a 37-year-old, and I care more about what happens to America
than the president.
President Bush says he does not know American history. Namely, he
says “I’ve been to a lot of summits. I’ve never
seen a meeting that would depose a tyrant, or bring a terrorist
to justice.” There are many photos of Franklin Delano Roosevelt
at summits to dispose of Hitler. I think we need to send this man
back home for the next four years to learn the real history of World
War II, which his father fought in. He might learn how to do the
job right instead of killing vets.
In the first debate, President Bush stated, “First, listen,
of course I know Osama bin Laden attacked us. I know that.”
I ask: Why is Osama bin Laden still free? Is it because of an incompetent
leader of the Western world? Or is it bin Laden showing off his
ability to wait until the cows come home?
Either way, it is time for a change — a change for the better.
