Dear Mr. President

President, President what have you done?

There has been so much trouble since you won.

Seeing you on T.V. you seemed to be so wise.

Your years in office has really opened a lot of eyes.

I know you meant good, and you tried to do well,
but this country, excuse me, is going through hell.

Our lives were going good, and some were doing great, but now it's hard to put 
food on our plates.

Can you tell us what has happen to our economy? 
 
Have you used too much of the country's money?

Gas prices are so high today,
that each week we fill up it takes most of our pay.

It seems like America is under a curse,
because things in our country keep getting worse.

We will always wonder what really were your plans, because me and others use 
to be your biggest fans.

WE hope you accomplished what you intended to do.

You really don't realize the pain we're going through.

You may be rich and have it all, 
but why do the middle class and the poor have to fall?

We are not talking about people who don't work or try.

Were talking about people who work 2 or 3 jobs
just to get by.
