Dear Sarah

You are a beauty pageant queen. You have as much knowledge of the world as the average beauty pageant queen who has depended on looks to get by.

About 25% of the world gets by without knowing how to think. They are proud of that lack of skill. They find “thinking too hard.”

They are likely all fine, decent folks, but don’t expect much, or any, depth of understanding from them.

And they are your “base” in your forthcoming run for the Presidency.

Fortunately, they are a minority, and cannot, by themselves, elect you.

This is hard for you, and them, to understand, but the world is a complex, nuanced (look it up) place, and requires more than simple platitudes. It requires at the very least, leaders who can actually -think- and not just repeat simple sayings, with the same level of understanding and sophistication as the average 14-year old.

I’d like to suggest that you are in WAAAAY over your head, and that just because others who think the world is simple like you do, will support you, is not enough reason, by a long shot, to think that you’re qualified to take the most powerful office in the world.

We had 8 years of leadership that was “simple” and look where that got us. And those people went to Yale, not the Miss Junior Beauty Queen school of hair and makeup.

On the other hand… and come to think of it… please DO run. At least that will assure us of -someone- (else) who actually -can- think for at least 4 more years.
