Patriot's Pen Essay

Author's note: I wrote to George Washington first since he had the right idea of not splitting up the country and he's one of the founding father's.  I then wrote to all the founding father's and thanked them for all they've  done.


Dear George Washington,
 I like your idea of not splitting up the U.S.A with parties.  Then there wouldn’t be all these fights over facebook and other online conversations.  People should just vote for who they want and not having to side with the democratic or republican side.  If you have your opinion on something you can say it but only if you can back that opinion up.  Some people don’t even know what’s going on in the presidential race but while their sitting at home, watching their favorite show they see a commercial about how much Obama has spent and how Romney can change that with his new plan.  That makes them want to vote for Romney although those commercial always give half the truth.  Sometimes not even that!  That’s why I wish that America wouldn’t have gotten separated by which political party they agree with but with who is the better president and who speaks the whole truth and not half of it.

Dear Founding Fathers,
I would like to thank you for all you have done to America and for building America.  Would there even be freedom without the founding fathers?  They wrote the Declaration of Independence and that’s what freed America and gave everyone their  freedom.  How would life today be?  Without our founding fathers we probably wouldn’t have half the stuff that we do today.  Take Benjamin Franklin for example.  He invented electricity!  If he wouldn’t have made the discoveries that he did, who knows what would have happened?  Would we have Ipods and Iphones?  How about computers?  How long would it take for someone else to discover electricity?  What I’m saying is this is why America is what it is today and without the Founding Fathers America wouldn’t be close to what it is now.
