To the Editor:

How does it feel to be the first African American president?

To some people it might seem like an honor to be the first. One reason why people would think that is because many children and school students look at you as a role model or leader for their future. There are tons of Americans today that complain about the choices you've made but I look up to you as well.

Now granted it's a choice of the people to elect a president. It looks like more people in America like you more than the other runner for president. However, with that always comes lots of hate.

Although you are known as the president and many people look up to you, there are many racist people and people who judge people in general. By this point I hope you have learned to deal with all of the stresses of being a president.

Not many people appreciate what you do for us.

Many people have been talked about and bullied earlier in their life, but that is what makes citizens so positive and happy now in their life as a American Citizen. If you compare the amount of positive people that applaud you for what you do and compare it to all the people who believe you've made bad decisions most people would think you are a good president. They think you make good choices. Then there are the others who don't think so much of you.

Does it frustrate you at all that the citizens of America don't believe and don't trust their own leader?
