An Open Letter to Barack Obama: If you Love America and its Children, Do Not Go to Rome

“Knowledge of what is right can no more be severed from consequential action than a living man can halt his own breath.” - Henry Thoreau, 1846

(NANAIMO, Vancouver Island) - Like you, I am the father of two daughters, and so no-one has to convince me that you love Malia and Sasha without condition, and would die to protect them from anyone and any power that would harm them.

That love for our children is born in us because the sanctity of every child is a divine condition that is higher than any law on earth, or any authority, as Jesus himself reminded us.

Is there a "pay to play" involved between the FDA and the maker of Zohydro?
