I, Zachary Tremper of Kansas City, MO, am a huge Taylor Swift fan. I have been to her shows, proudly don my Swiftie shirts, and I even have a tattoo that says "Speak Now," written in the font used on the album cover. You can imagine my dismay when, on August 18th, Ms. Swift released the music video for "Shake It Off" and I was not in it.
I petition President Obama to ask Taylor Swift to put me, Zach Tremper, in her next music video. I would even happily share the spotlight if you, Mr. President, joined us in our dancing.
I realize that there are very serious things happening in the world today. I'm not sure how to end the crisis in Gaza, halt ISIS, or stop earthquakes in California. I can promise to make you forget about the problems by dancing crazy. You might even laugh.
Thank you.
