Well, yes, we can. It seems kind of like learning how to use your office's defibrillator after your favorite co-worker has died, but it's still good information to have. Our government is all but complete in the hands of the evil, conspiring men the scriptures warn us of, but it is still important for the Saints to know these things because not only do we still believe that, like the song say, with God, nothing is impossible. Not only t hat, but the day will come when governments established and perverted by evil will be replaced by good government.freedomforall wrote:I suppose we all can learn from Benson's writing of "The Proper Role Of Government."
You have three main ways to communicate with the President. You can call the White House, and believe it or not there is an office full of WH workers who will take your call, listen to your issue, and make the proper notifications: If you're calling the President, they'll report it either to him or to one of his staff. You can write a letter and mail it to the White House (get the address online, I know it's 1600 Pennsylvania ave. Washington DC but I don't remember the zip code) and he either gets the letter itself or his staff coalesce your letter into others sharing your opinion (I've even heard of a President answering a few personally, but it's rare. Closest I've ever gotten was a reply from James Baker from Reagan's presidency.BTW, is the best way to get a thought to POTUS is by going through a congressman?
The third and probably most popular way today is to send an email. You can send letters to [email protected] or to [email protected]. I've never received any correspondence back from this other than an automated reply thanking me for my letter I'm guessing they deleted. I have regularly had email communication to my state's U.S. Senators and U.S. Congressmen, though and I've had pretty good success with these officials. I communicated quite a bit with Lisa Murkowski in Alaska, when she came to my village I got a notification from her office she was coming for a visit and said she hoped to meet me. I was surprised she actually remembered some of the content of our emails. In the two years I was in Wyoming I had regular communication with Rep. Cynthia Lummis' office, and even more with Sen. John Barrasso. On three separate occcasions I got a phone call asking me if I'd like to attend a conference call with Sen. Barrasso and other educators around the state. This was great because he'd get on the line and talk with all of us about mainly educational issues, but he was always glad to hear some of us rail about Obama and ask him to fight against the encroachment of our rights. A Senator who actually spoke directly with us lowly teachers, we all felt like he actually wanted to represent us, it was unique.
I'd recommend both a letter and an email, but until Trump is sworn in, the above info goes to Obamao. I'm sure Yahoo can help you get a current email and physical address to mail to President Elect Trump. You're almost guaranteed to get an automated reply to an email, I'd say you have a f air chance at a response to an actual letter. Most likely it'll be from a staffer, I'm guessing he's far too busy to reply personally until things slow a bit with his innaguration.So what is a Republican to do to get his voice heard?
