Dear Mr. President,

We need to talk about Mr. Spicer. Sir, are you aware of the things that he said in defense of the attack on Syria? He went so far beyond the regular levels of putting his foot in his mouth that we have come to expect from him. This time, he was inexcusable. He said that Adolf Hitler—literally the reason there are laws against war crimes—never stooped to using chemical weapons. Sir, I strongly recommend that he be forced to watch a holocaust documentary as soon as possible. After that, I would recommend that all of his speeches and talking points go through both a protocol official and an extensive editing process. We've trusted him to write his own reports, but if he continues to make snafus as serious as calling concentration camps Holocaust centers, then you should really think about having someone else write his briefings.

Another thing you should really be aware of Mr. President, is that Sean Spicer and the other members of your cabinet act as an extension of you. As President, you wield supreme, executive power over statements made by your cabinet almost as if some watery tart threw a sword at you. I fear that it's up to me to inform you that the American people are beginning to question your leadership because of such incidents.

Dear Mr. President, On this Earth Day, it's nice to celebrate the Earth and remind ourselves that it's the only one we've got. It's a chance to think about how we can all make a small difference that will add up to big results later. That's why I was so glad that you responded in such a way to the March for Science. Thank you for indicating the turn around your administration will be making to protect endangered species and further the efforts of those organizations dedicated to preserving the Earth. After all, we're not the only ones using the planet. We've got to think of everyone. I'm so proud of you, Sir. It takes a big man to make such a public change. I eagerly await the new policies.

Dear Mr. President, In an interview, you had some questions about the Civil War. Namely, why it happened and couldn't be worked out. Well Sir, let me tell you. Half of our country believed that owning a person as property was wrong. The other half were those that owned the slaves. At the heart of the matter was the way people viewed blacks. To the Southern American, a black person was not a person at all. I'm not even sure if they were considered to be as high as livestock, but they were definitely treated like manure. All because of an uncontrollable factor that allowed them to survive in such sunny climates. By that, I mean the color of their skin. One side thought people were nothing more than objects to beat and work to death, and the other side respected the sanctity of life. Those were some very deeply held beliefs Sir, and it is always difficult to change a fundamental opinion. As for Andrew Jackson being upset about the Civil War, he was dead by then. For 1...

Dear Mr. President, A disturbing report was brought to my attention today. You have allowed logging in National Parks. Is that true? That can't be true, Sir. Logging would destroy our National Parks. The effect would be terrible, both for the environment and for our reputation. People don't say America the Beautiful because of man-made structures. They say it because our country—YOUR country—is inherently beautiful. It's natural structures are breathtaking. Perhaps if you considered them the Trump Tower of parks. It would be like allowing gold minders into your homes. I've seen pictures. They would strip your home of it's very essence. The same is true of logging in the National Parks. Please don't let us become America the Deforested.
