Letter to the Editor- Spoil System (positive)
I'm writing to let you know we owe you so much for providing us with an opportunity to learn new jobs, and to be able to provide a better life to our families. Even though we may not have all the skills to do our job, we will work hard to make our nation proud. You will continue to have our support and votes. We know some people may be upset you gave us jobs, but we really are grateful to you. Without you we couldn't be able to save money for the future.
Sincerely, The People
Letter to Editor- Trail of Tears (negative)
As a strong Native American we know that moving to a new Indian territory may provide us money and other things needed in order to re locate us to our new home land. We are very concerned with all the other Native Americans that have started there journey that has already died from other diseases or hungry. We don't want to be one of the 1,000's of people who will die as a result of the journey that you are forcing us to take. We expected more from our government to not put our lives at risk from the U.S. Government.
With regret, Native Americans
