Dear Mr. President

Posted in Uncategorized by remarkabelle on 05/01/2010

Dear Mr. President,

My name is Rachelle Leeann. I am from Our Lady of the Holy Rosary Catholic School in Miami, FL. I am an honor roll student and a third year junior Girl Scout. I love learning new and interesting things constantly. When I grow up I want to be a journalist or owner of a transportation agency. But most of all, leading our country as the first female President of the United States of America. Do you believe I can? Because two ignorant boys in my class do not believe I can because I am a girl. What do you think? Thank you and tell Socks, Chelsea, and Mrs. Clinton I said hello.

Sincerely,

Rachelle

My mom is visiting and brought over a box full of pictures and other childhood memories. The above message is the verbatim text from a handwritten letter that I wrote to President Bill Clinton. I wonder why I never sent the letter. I was a pretty interesting 5th grader! Journalist…or…Owner of a Transportation Agency…or…President?!

When does the little kid in us stop reaching for the stars?  Also, I think I have always thought that I could be BFF’s with Chelsea Clinton. Chelsea, if you are reading this, let’s hang out sometime.

    @Varun I don’t think I really like politics these days. It’s too political for me.

    @Stan, yes! I have no doubt that you will be a famous author one day. Do it for the fifth grader! Never lose that drive and optimism!

    @Waleeeeed I will miss you too! and everyone else :( I am sad to leave. You have to make sure there is another blogging planel for PFS next year, it was so fun!

    @Hira….it’s your turn to be president!

    hurray for feminism!! :P

    I’m stalking you, rachelle. found you on linkedIn, followed you to your website (which is pretty impressive i must say – how did you do it?! you gotta teach me) and then landed upon here and wonder what you’re doing sending letters to the president. i randomly had this urge to send one to President Obama last week… didn’t get time though =/
