To the Editor:

Dear President Obama: You may know that many years ago there was a movement here on the Island to secede. We even have a flag, and it’s a lovely one. Since you seem to like it here, and I for one am so deeply ashamed of our current White House occupant, would you consider becoming the President of M.V. if we secede? Please? I know there are many who agree with me.

I’m sure some haters will comment on this letter; just ignore them.
