Skyhorse Publishing, Inc. is in the process of publishing a collection of
letters to president-elect Barack Obama, with the straightfoward title
Letters to President Obama. The letters presented are a reflection of the
decisions made, closed-curtained, in loges across America, on Tuesday,
November 4th 2008. We at Skyhorse want to illuminate the good will felt at
this moment in history. The book is being edited by professors from the
University of Michigan and Cornell and will be in stores April 2009.

We are seeking input. We are offering the opportunity to congratulate
and/or pose questions to Mr. Obama.

Please visit www.letterstopresidentobama.com for submissions.

Thank you.
