Jason McBride of Post Political blog emailed in to point us to his open letter to Fred asking him to run. Here is how he closes the letter:
Senator Thompson, please consider the opportunities at stake here. At a time when America, and the world for that matter, are in dire need of leadership, I believe that you would make us proud in becoming the next President of the United States. If indeed you are seeking the feedback of your peers, than allow me to do what I can in a simple letter to you, by saying that I, and many that I know, would support your candidacy.
I hope that this letter will find it’s way to you, as I’m sure thousands already have. But I wanted to do my part, in being yet another citizen of this great country, in asking you to represent my vote as the next Republican nominee for president. Good luck in whatever decision you make Senator Thompson, and God bless.
The whole thing is worth a read.
