Message To Obama From an Obama Supporter

Dear Senator Obama
Hey Bro, as always I give you my warmest regards and praise. You are a great man of exemplary honor and integrity, a unifying leader, and a harbinger of hope and how hopeful the future can be. Please come visit Hawaii before the General Election, because the folks out here would love to see you, but to be totally honest, we would be more happy if you came to visit us as the next President of the United States of America.
But there is an immediate issue that has become of serious concern to me, and to a lot of other people. In the great city of Detroit, there is a situation brewing that could potentially lead to a riot.
Like most of the nation, I really don't know what is going on in Detroit, but according to the news it has something to do with sexual misconduct and perjury allegation made against Detroit's African American mayor, and the word "nigger" and death threat being hurled at said mayor.
I am uncertain as to how much of a friend the mayor of Detroit is to you, or if you have even ever met him, but there is no denying that many of the people of the City of Detroit, and of the state of Michigan, look up to you, and see you as a transformative leader that can greatly help America and Americans heal their racial divides.
Is there anyway that you can help the people and politicians of Detroit settle their situation, before it becomes dire?
I believe most Obama and Clinton supporters would be of the opinion that you can help in Detroit, and all of the Obama supporters, that I know personally, would be greatly appreciative if you could go to Detroit and try to help the people and politicians there settle their situation peacefully.
I can't speak for all Obama's supports, but I am sure that many Obama supporters would lend their voice to this message.
Thank you very much for the positive message you have given throughout this nomination process, and I look forward to you taking back Washington DC for all us that have long wanted real change in our government for a long time.
Yes we can!

Sincerely
A serviceman, a patriot, and one of your supporters.

Detroit needs to do the city a favor and get rid of Kwame Kilpatrick on its own. It's ridiculous, with all due respect, to think that Obama has any responsibility, much less the power/influence, to do anything about this.

He has no responsibility for Detroit's situation (none / 0)

And I hope I did not imply that he did. But Detroit is in a bad situation, there is no denying that, and as an Obama supporter, I would like to see Obama address the situation. And I think it would do wonders for the city if Obama was to visit it.

You obviously don't know how badly Kilpatrick... (none / 0)

has screwed up.  There is nothing ANYONE (even Hillary Clinton) can do to save his ass.

He should already have resigned.

I could care less about Kilpatrick. (none / 0)

I am concerned about the city of Detroit.

Or (none / 0)

Obama could help calm down the people of Detroit, and help them help them help themselves to solve the situation peacefully.

My sense is that the city will make this one work out.  Everyone in Detroit is deeply cognizant of the city's racial history (which I wrote about here) and they know they don't want to go back.  I've been encouraged to see so many community leaders, white and black alike, join together in proclaiming that this is not a racial issue and should not be allowed to become one.  Here's an example of what I'm talking about.

I'm certainly in favor of Barack Obama doing anything within his power to help resolve the situation.  Hey, if you make everything work out okay, the mayor's mom has a superdelegate vote!

Glad to hear this (none / 0)

Still I am concerned though. A race riot is the last thing this country needs.

You should send a message to Hillary and (none / 0)

John McCain as well. They have just as much responsibility to do something.
