Is there a grassroots way to actually have a message reach the President?

Twitter?

I often wonder if he stalks around here on fluther to gauge the pulse of the collective.

I sound so cynical, but I think the government has gotten so big and self involved that it doesn’t think of mail from us “little people” as anything more than fan/hate mail. I don’t think we are being represented in Congress, and I don’t think anyone is listening. DC has become its own self sustaining robot. It’s going to fix and destroy at it’s own will, though it may have enough consciousness to hold back a little- just enough so that its subjects don’t revolt.

I’ve read that President Obama reads about twenty letters a day from individuals. Somebody is obviously screening them for him. Try the site whitehouse.gov; I believe they have a contact link.

Doesn’t he have a blog? I thought I heard that somewhere…

There is a White House blog on the above referenced site. I don’t know if there is another.

Go stand in front of the gate at the White House where the President’s limo arrives and departs with a sign. You’ll have to keep walking (you’re not allowed to stand there), but if you carry an interesting enough sign, you’ll be seen.

Twitter is much like a blog, but faster due to IM.
