Thanks to a tweet from Bud the Teacher, here is a site that is collecting letters to the next president. Several cool things about this, in addition to the opportunity to have the voices of your students sent on to the next presidnet, you also get a mashup of locations of letters being submitted, and a word cloud of top subjects people are writing about. Keep in mind, these are real people writing about real issues, so you should check this and understand what you will see before you introduce it to your class.
