Dear Mr. President,

(Part of my continuing series wherein I give people in power my advice which I'm sure they take very very seriously.)
Where's the lofty rhetoric? The soaring oratory? The Gettysburg Address was written during a war. Not as a chapter in a pre-campaign autobiography.  Propaganda, like power, abhors a vacuum.
Obama

Dear Mr. President:

Please close Guantanamo and consider subletting cheap overseas prisons from Vladimir Putin. Bush had the right idea with secret overseas prisons--the problem is that they weren't far enough. With our prisoners in Siberian labor camps where there is no electricity, they'll be pretty much incommunicado permanently. Take that, Red Cross!
Yours in Christ,
Gunz2luv
