I wrote an email to my President today.
I congratulated him on his victory and told him how glad I was he would be our leader for 4 more years.
I told him how much I appreciate his dedication to our security and his support of our military.
I joked with him that they have "my mattresses" in the White House and Air Force 1.
I told him how much I admire Laura and the relationship they share.
I got a form letter back. And that was more than I expected.
I just wanted my voice to be heard one more time.
Yeah, I'm naive. But I'm alright with that.
Cause I wrote an email to My President today.

Posted by: Boudicca at November 4, 2004 08:19 PMtoday's posts were great. I especially loved the 30 sec bunny reviews of the shining.
that was so nice of you to write the president. he got a love letter from me on election day so I didn't feel compelled to overwhelm him with my love. You know how guys are.
Hey, here's a multi-tasking idea: why not sing your song, while trying to sweat worries and calories away as you clean for Ma vi's visit?
Posted by: michele at November 4, 2004 09:50 PMNoble Eagle is right. Writing it made you feel good. I'm sure that the e-mail made the person who screened it feel good (I'm sure there are lots of nasty ones), and it just might find its way to the big guy, and it will surely make him feel good. I know reading about your having written it made me feel good. It's a good country.
Posted by: Jim - PRS at November 4, 2004 10:22 PMGood Job, I didn't even think of it.
I've read several Presidents autobiographies and they all mentioned how much they liked getting positive emails, it makes their day.
