Dear Mr. President,
As a guest in your country, I am particularaly concerned that the main beauties of theis American society are regressing. Pursuing my professional degreeas a librarian, I have totake issue with your and John Ashcroft's assault on the right to read. W have heard of people, citizens like you, taxpayers like me, who have been afraid of checking books out of their public libraries. We have heard of instructors facing students afraid of researching simply because of your Section 215 of the Patriot Act. Whether it is enforced or not does not matter. The fact that citizens are afraid of using their right to road dos matter. mit freundlichen Grussen,
Caroline Mavergames
