Barack Obama Wants to Hear From Us - Let's Speak Up

Barack Obama Wants to Hear From Us - Let's Speak Up


Barack Obama told us in his speech on election night that he wants to hear from people who disagree with him. His transition web site has a feedback form asking for people to share their vision for his presidency with him. I think we need to speak up and let him know that we want him to protect innocent life.


Before I give you the web site to send him a message I need to make one thing very clear. I do not want anyone to use this to slam Barack Obama or send him hate mail. As much as we may disagree with his stance on life, we must also love him and share our message with love and compassion.


If you do not feel that you can send a respectful and constructive message to him, I ask that you refrain from participating in this challenge.


Here is the letter that I will be sending Barack Obama


Mr Obama


I want to congratulate you on your victory and share with you my vision for your presidency as you have requested on this site.


I want to first let you know that I did not vote for you. I am a strong believer in the sanctity of human life and I was very troubled by the comments you have made that seem to reflect a disrespect for life.


My vision for your presidency is a simple one. I want to see you stand for the rights of every single American, born and pre-born. I want to see you protect life from the moment of fertilization until natural death. I want to be able to trust that my President believes that every single human person has a right to life and is considered equal.


Mr Obama I will pray for you every day. I will pray for our Nation every day. I will pray that some day we as a Nation will end the slaughter of the innocents. I will pray that you will have the courage to stand up for social justice for the most vulnerable and innocent of our citizens, pre-born children.


Social Justice Begins in the Womb.


For Christ I stand,


Bryan Kemper

Personally, I think it's just a ploy to identify dissentors to later perssecution, but what the heck -- it's too late for me to hide now after being an open prolife activist and blogger all these years.

I sent him a picture of Rowan, and this letter:

Dear President-Elect Obama:

This is a picture of my friend's son, Rowan, who drowned in an abortion clinic toilet while his mother pleaded for staff to call 911. They not only refused to make the call, they sent away the ambulance that my friend's companion had called, lying and saying that there was no live baby at that facility.

I think you can understand why I am less than thrilled with the prospect of an Obama Presidency, when at best you deny that these things happen at all, and at worst you give them your approval.

If you want to show that you are sincere in reaching out to those who disagree with you, a good place to start would be by putting teeth in the Federal Born Alive Infants Protection Act. It is not being enforced. It did not induce clinic staff to provide care for Rowan. It likewise did not induce staff at another Florida clinic to provide care for Shanice, who instead was put in a biohazard bag and thrown on the roof.

This is an area where prolife and prochoice citizens are united, and where you are serioulsy out of step.

Why not make this gesture -- at least to give the mother the choice, after the child is born alive, to request medical care for the child? Is that so much to ask?
