President Obama, the undersigned ask that our President please tell the US Air Force to remove the Air Force Demonstration Squadron "Thunder Birds" from sequestration cuts. When the Thunder Birds come to perform at air shows, the local economies attract aviation geeks and the general public like a magnet to spend money and generate tax revenue.
Certainly a lot more economic stimulus is created in our communities from Seattle to Virginia Beach than $40 million dollars each year. Furthermore, the U.S. Air Force Thunder Birds serve to recruit young people to support and defend this Great Nation. Lets show the Power of AIR POWER!
Finally, Mr. President: WE PAY TAXES FOR THE COMMON DEFENSE AND THE THUNDER BIRDS! THANK YOU, POTUS.
