Dear President Obama,

First of all let me congratulate you on running a brilliant and successful campaign for what might be the toughest job in the world.

I am writing to you today to offer some tidbits of advice that perhaps your predecessors did not receive. I know, I know, you've heard many well wishers offer many words of wisdom, but if you only heed three bits of advice let it be these three:

- Think before you speak.
This may sound obvious to you but it is painfully obvious that not everyone does this. Sometime a silent pause before speaking gives what you say more weight and it gives you a moment to check yourself and make sure you don't put your foot firmly in your mouth. I know I wish I had heeded this advice now and again and I try to stop and think before I say something that may get me into trouble. I hope you do the same.

- Be honest
No one likes a liar and getting caught lying can be worse than getting caught with your pants down, especially if the lie is to cover up getting caught with your pants down.

- Be faithful to your wife
For the love of toast do not have sex with anyone other than your wife. I repeat, DO NOT have sex with anyone other than your wife. Any part of you or that is attached to you, including cigars or other objects, that enters any orifice belonging to someone other than your wife is a big NO-NO for the next 4 years if not forever.

I wish you and your family all the best on this momentous day and may you have a wonderful and successful presidency.

Sincerely,
-kris
