Write an open letter to the citizens of the United States of America

As a student in English 104, a class that has focused primarily on war and how we communicate about it, write an open letter to the citizens of the United States of America, addressing the issue of what needs to be done to talk about war in our country. How can we improve our dialog about war? In what ways is it already good, and in what ways is it functioning poorly? What kinds of forums could you suggest to improve communicative interaction among citizens? Use at least one powerful and moving quotation from an article, essay, story, or film that you have read or watched in this class. 250 Word Minimum, 350 Word Maximum.
