Mr. President,

The Bakersfield National Cemetery would be a great place to build a new monument to our Veterans.

They tear them down, You build new ones.

The cemetery is relatively new and on a sparse piece of ground, almost desert. It does have a couple of small hills on it though, the perfect place for a Mt Suribachi memorial. Visible from the 58 freeway it would bring visitors to a cemetery that deserves more visitors. Its even in Kevin McCarthys district.

Show California you still care by Executive Order funding. $17 billion ought to be enough.

I'll administer the funds. Have the NSA get you my contact info.
