An Open Letter to President Elect Obama

Dear Mr. President Elect Obama,

We are going to start with colors first, in hopes that you will understand what we are trying to say in the following lines. The colors White, Black, Yellow, and Brown are very important colors because they represent more than 6 billion human beings on this earth.

 

The White color stands for the White people in Europe, part of Asia, and part of North America, Australia and New Zealand. The Black color stands for the Black people in Africa and around the world. The Yellow color stands for the Yellow people in most of Asia and Japan. The Brown color stands for the Brown people in the Middle East, part of Asia and around the world.

 

You are created by God just like all of us, at least that is what the majority of us believe. But in reality you are created by two people who happen to be White and Black. We can count you as Brown just like us from the Middle East. But you are to be the President of the most powerful nation on earth; at least it was until a few months ago before the collapse of the financial capitalist system. We hope that you will build up the USA of Jefferson and Lincoln so that the USA will again be a country that can help us later on.

 

Mr. President Elect, we are proposing the Aryan (Iranian) Economic Union (AU) for our people, the Brown people in our home land and hope that your administration will help us to achieve that big goal. We have been actively trying to achieve that goal for a year now. We are not greedy. We want to be fair to all people: Brown, Black, and Yellow too. So we are now proposing the same for them too.

 

The US Government should adopt the policy of the angels in heaven. The US can help to create regional economic unions world wide rather than global economic unions. Your policies can support and protect the Latin Economic Union (LU) which would include the entire area of South America and Mexico; the African Economic Union (AFU), which would include the entire continent, but without the Arab countries because they are calling themselves White; the Aryan (Iranian) Economic Union (AU), which would be from Pakistan to Georgia and from Kurdistan to Kazakhstan. We call ourselves Brown, and the Indian Economic Union (IU), India, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka and others probably would be with us because they are Brown too; and the Arab Economic Union (ARU), from Iraqi Arabs to Morocco.  We have been told by a friend about a Black African from Arab Morocco who, when he looked at his hands, told others he believed that because he was Arab, he was White!!!

 

We hope, Mr. President Elect, that your election by the majority of the American people will make it possible for people like that Arab from Morocco to say I am Brown. This perception of color and race is very important to the majority of the people on earth. The qualifications to do the job are secondary in the minds of many. In any case, we are little people without powers and wealth in Kurdistan, a region of Iran and Iraq, because the Bush Administration gave money meant for us to Mr. Talabani and Mr. Barzani in order to gain their support to fight the terrorists in the region. Believe us Mr. President Elect, though there are times when we must drink sewage water in Kurdistan, we have strong immune systems and we have a life expectancy similar to Americans.

 

Mr. President Elect, we pray and hope for your success. We hope you will build up the old USA. We hope you will adopt our proposals. We hope you read this article. We hope you do not forget colors. We hope you will give our representative in the USA a chance to meet with you in the White House. We have a thousand more hopes for you just like every individual in America and around the world so we will let you go now because you have a lot of work to do.
