         <description><![CDATA[<div>Dear, President of the United States of America...<br><br>I have realized that you wanted to promote the Philippines as independent. We shall accept the offer as finally our country will finally be free from the grasp of American hands. But, let’s have a deal. You leave my country alone, and we shall not waste the effort you have put into the education and health of the Philippines in vain. But, if any of your comrades lay a foot on the border, and you shall face consequences that your nation shall interfere. Also, I hope Trump gets fired.<br><br>Signed,<br>A Filipino dude<br>(Why on earth am I even signing this?)</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div><br>Dear Mr. President<br>The Philippines can handle themselves because of the resources we have maybe given or found in the Philippines. That we can always handle themselves with a stable government that was fairly made. As one of our rights our culture has been taken away by the commissions or acts your country has implemented and I think we can handle our own without the control of your country.<br><br>-NANAY MO<br><br></div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div><em>Tenissey Paladin<br></em>I think that the Philippines is ready to have freedom, and independence due to the following reasons:<br>The Philippines already had solid progress in trade and industry. They had enough money and stable economic growth. It was just that the U.S. received most of the money from trade. Due to things being established in the Philippines, by the Americans, we had access to tools for communication, like telegraphs and radios.  It also provided different forms of transportation like trains. We already had established and stable governments, which were civil and military. Health was not a problem at the time due to the Board of Public Health, and Philippine General Hospital being established. Other than that, we had proved to have capable leaders like Sergio Osmeña, Manuel Roxas, and Manuel Quezon.</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>Dear Mr. President of the US,<br><br> I believe that we should be independent for we have worked very hard to gain this. We already made a stable government and learned many things. We want to not be dependent on others for we have our own identity. I would appreciate it if you would take our concern and put some thought into it. Thank you!<br><br>Sincerely, <br>The Filipino Government<br><br></div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>Dear President Roosevelt,<br>I firstly would like to thank you for all the improvements and contributions such as the establishment of public shool system, improvement of health and social welfare services, introduction of railroads, telegraphs and radios you have generously given my country, the Philippines. With these improvements and with our own skill and wisdom, I believe that the Philippines is ready to gain independence. Independence is a very big deal and must be given after thorough speculation. So, I’d like to give you some of the reasons why I believe that the Philippines is ready to be independent. With more Filipinos being educated and civilized with Act 74, I believe it will be much easier to lead and direct them to national development. I believe that with the new technology, namely telegraphs, radios and telephones, transportation methods such as railways being extended to further parts of the Philippines and health and social welfare services such as general hospitals, dispensaries and modern sanitation. Aside from this, the Philippines has also made some very notable and stable economic growth. We have also made a lot of growth in the trade and industry department. Government agencies and boards such as the Board of Public Health. We also have experience from various kinds of governments like civil and military. Filipinos also already have experience participating in the government like in the Philippine Assembly. I hope that the resons stated above will convince you that the Philippines is ready to gain independence and self-rule. Thank you (next).<br><br>- A Philippine Government Official/Reoresentative</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>Dear Mr. President, <br><br>I would like to ask for our independence back, because we have truly worked incredibly hard to earn it and just to lost it again. Don’t you think that seems a bit unfair? Our independence is our identity, it makes us who we are and it has been taken away from us. You have not only taken our independence, but you have also taken a bit of our culture away from us in the process. More and more people are being affected by colonial mentality because of it. However, I would like to say thank you though, because you have given our country new advantages for our citizens, like better communicating services and better education, and I’m grateful for that. I would just like to peacefully ask for our independence back without any problems and I hope you understand. <br><br>-A Filipino Representative </div>]]></description>
