Bicentennial
February 17, 1976
Mr. {redacted}
c/o Mrs. {redacted}
Third Grade Class
Greenwood Elementary School
Terre Haute, Indiana 47802
Dear Mr. {redacted}:
Thank you for your recent letter concerning the United States Bicentennial and its meaning to members of the United States Senate.
The Bicentennial has a very deep meaning to me and I am sure has a great meaning to almost all Americans. Here in Washington, we are looking for a great influx of tourists during the summer season due to the Bicentennial.
This nation's 200 years of existence have been something that all Americans be very proud of. While our country is far from perfect, relative to many other countries and many other governments, we have a great deal to be pleased with. Today our country finds itself grappling with many problems. As a United States Senator, I hope to have some positive influence on the resolution of these problems.
For me, the Bicentennial is more than just a look backward, it is a time for reflection on the future.
Once again, I want to thank you for your letter. If I can ever be of assistance to you again, I hope that you will not hesitate to get in touch. I also want to comment on the fine penmanship in your letter.
Sincerely yours,
BOB DOLE
United States Senate
