The ability to write letters to the president was established during the Truman administration. Since then, many people have taken advantage of this opportunity to express their opinions on various issues before the president. Most letters deal with one subject matter, but some are written in support of someone who has been nominated for a government position. It is important to note that not all letters receive a response. If we take a look at the history books, we will see that several hundred letters were sent to President Truman, for example, but only a few of these letters have ever been made public. The rest were considered personal communications and were not released by the president.

Your letter should be about a topic relevant to the office of the presidency. For example, you might want to write about policy issues before them or ask questions about administration actions.
"Most respectfully," conclude your letter. This complementing close indicates that the body of your message has come to an end. At the end of the letter, sign and print your name. The address should be as follows:
