Dear President of the United States, You are inheriting a mess. I hope you will be up to the challenge. In these uncommon times, we need an uncommon leader. Someone who will rise above the fray and take our country to a new place in the world, one where we are not abusers of power but models of peace. We need you to start that transformation, to honor and value different cultures and to create new possibilities for all people on earth. We need a world leader, who can usher in an era of equality for women, for children, for people across all their differences. Sincerely, Adrienne McCormick Professor, SUNY Fredonia March 17, 2008
