Dear President-elect Obama,
As a recent American citizen from another country, I am glad to be able to participate in such a historic election with which the color barrier has been broken. Though you might sound very inspirational in your speeches, I hope that you can deliver on many of your promises. I believe the problem with America is not America itself, but rather how America throws its weight around the world. I would like to end with a quote from Nicolo Machieavelli: "Wars begin as you will, but they do not end as you please."
Sincerely,
Teng-Yuan Cheng
