Dear Mr. President...

Dear President Trump,

You may not realize, but you are in a unique position that only 44 people before you can understand. Right at this moment, you are the representative, and leader, of one of the most, if not thee most, powerful and admired country in the world. 

At this moment sir, you represent approximately 325,373,864 men, women and children of all different race, religion, gender, and ideas. 

You represent...

56.6 million Hispanics—11.4 million of those are undocumented immigrants that sacrificed their life, left behind everything they know and love, in pursuit of the "dream." The dream land that was founded by immigrants for immigrants looking for a better life. 

37,144,530 million black Americans who are still facing racism everyday in spite of the years of fighting for equality. 

3.3 million Muslims that came to this country, known for its religious freedom only to face hate. 

157 million women that deserve justice and equal rights just as much as their male counterparts. That are worth more than 80 cents to the dollar and have every single right to their own body. 

9 million LGBTQ individuals who live in shame every day because they believe they cannot be who they really are. 

America is more than just the 1% of rich, white, male elite. You might think that because you were elected president you represent ALL of America, but as you have shown time and time again, you don't. In fact, 63% of the US population are minorities that have just as much equal right as the 1%. And believe me when I say, we will come together to fight against any injustice. 

There are 7,000,000,000,000 people world wide watching you, turning to your leadership. Take it seriously.
