Dear Mr. Trump,
I will be straightforward about one thing. You were not my first choice for president. The things that you have said about women, immigrants, people of different races and religions is disturbing. I don't understand how our country has elected you as our future president. The youth that have not been able to vote in this election are feeling helpless, especially the young women. The thought that I would not be accepted by my country because of my gender and Indian heritage had never even crossed my mind before. I am going to make something very clear to you right now. You cannot turn this country into one that is inhabited by white males only. It's not going to work. Women are much stronger and resilient than any man can imagine, and we are proud. So good luck taking all our rights away.
Many young people in my area are hoping for an assassination. However, I am praying that you are able to see reason. I pray that you can learn to love all people no matter what their gender, skin color, religion, or sexual orientation is. I pray that you will be able to see that this country is great, and always has been. Sure we have had our low points, but everything has always turned out okay. I pray that you and all your supporters will be able to see that love is real, and love is true. I am sending love, and prayers to not only all those who are suffering because of this election, but also all those who are joyously celebrating. The only way to stop the hurt is to support everyone, and not turn into monsters.
Please learn to love, and to respect all human beings.

I love this piece because you are so straightforward and honest and I think it really speaks to a bunch of different people. Especially in your second paragraph where you talk about people hoping for him to be assassinated, but instead you are just praying for him to see the light. This is a piece that makes me very hopeful for humanity.
