Mr. Senator Barack Obama,

It made me very sad when I heard you say that you would not talk to Hamas. I grant you that you did caveat it by saying "under current circumstances". I also applaud you for refusing to criticize Jimmy Carter for his continuous work towards peace in the Middle East.

Please Mr. Senator, the vast majority of the people know that you have to have dialog to solve a problem and the current path of the Palestinian/Israelian crisis is mutual annihilation! The only way to solve the problems in the Middle East is through peace and you can not achieve peace without negotiations.

I really thought you would say something like "my goal would be to achieve peace and if that means we have to talk to Hamas, then we will talk with them. Once the dialog stops the problems only get worse." I am sure you would be far more eloquent, but that is the basic message I have been hearing from you thus far. It is the truth and it IS what people want to hear!

I view you as a lone voice of reason in a crazy cesspool of ignorance led by mass hysteria. The media will pick up on reason and the reason will overcome the ignorance as long as it is done with integrity, as with your race speech, that even the Daily Show praised.

Thank you Mr. Senator for the hope you have given me, please keep up your good work!

Sincerely yours,

Paul de Jong
