As the Communications Director at Rock the Vote, I've had the
privilege of reading your letters to Senators McCain and Obama.There
were so many, and they were so heartfelt. I wanted to pass on a few.
Liz from Ohio writes: "Don't forget about or underestimate us.Maybe
more of us will vote if you remember that we're here, that we matter,
and that we want our voice heard too.
Caryn from Boulder, Colorado writes: "In the world we live in,
Americans are looking for a president who can be strong but tolerant,
open-minded but steadfast ... Can either of you represent the people
of America rather than just its government? Campaign promises are one
thing, but delivering on them and actually improving the lives of
Americans is quite another You're not expected to be a super-human,
but as a presidential candidate, I do expect you to be honest and
dedicated to helping the people of this nation, as well as the people
and environment of the global community. Please don't let us down.
Anthony from New Wilmington, Pennsylvania writes: "Please, Senator
Obama and Senator McCain, no matter what happens in the months to come
remember one word...unity. I know your views are very different but
the thing that is most important to me in this election is reuniting
America. The world we live in now is bad enough without domestic
fighting, Republican vs. Democrat, gay vs. straight, rich vs. poor;
America is becoming divided and I hope that you both will run fair,
respectable, and clean campaigns.
The only voice we're missing is yours.
