Notes to Barack

There is an opportunity to write a note to Barack Obama at this website. Here's what I wrote:
Please don't let us down, Mr. Obama. We're counting on you to be your best self, as you run for the Presidency, as you serve as a Senator, as you are a husband and father, as you are a son, a son in law, a brother, and as you are a human being.
We're counting on you to be a champion of justice, a friend to the "little guy", and above all, a man of integrity.
Please don't let us down. We're counting on you to bring this country back to a place of integrity and good repute.
Rev. Kit Ketcham

We're counting on you to be your best self, as you run for the Presidency of the UUA, as you serve as a minister, as you are a husband and father, as you are a son, a son in law, a brother, and as you are a human being.

We're counting on you to be a champion of justice, a friend to the "little guy", and above all, a man of integrity.

Please don't let us down. We're counting on you to bring this "tiny dwindling fringe religion" back to a place of integrity and good repute.

...a friend to the "little guy"...

Provided, of course, that they're not too little.

Honestly, if it weren't for that, I'd be tempted to vote for him.
