I was recently asked to assist a deaf webmaster to develop a letter he/she can use to send to people asking for financial support. The letter below is the example he sent to me. I can see why this person wasn't able to get any sponsorships. The letter below represents the result of the failed sign language based education system we have been feeding, as in funding, for too long. This is the result of the taxpayers $800,000.00 that was spent to teach this person sign language. The person can't succeed because he/she wasn't taught the right language. That's a $800,000.00 waste of taxpayers money you're seeing here. Getting this deaf person to hear and speak would have cost far less than $100,000.00 and would have made a better writer than what you see in the letter below.
I've been seeing a lot of examples like this and feel it's high time we start teaching deaf children the right language. It's high time we stop funding the failed sign language based education programs for the deaf and start funding programs that teach deaf children the right language. Lets do that so we dont have to see more letters like below.

Letter To Senator Harkin
February 27, 2009
The Honorable Tom Harkin
731 Hart Senate Office Building
Washington, DC 20510
Dear Senator Harkin,
Even though you're not one of our senators, we appreciate the time to read the letter from us.
We at the Orange County Deaf Advocacy Center thanks and appreciates your longstanding zeal to make life better for people with disabilities.
As civilization advances, the deaf community has been very slow to advance with it. And they show it by forcefully rejecting futurists like Dr. Jane K. Fernandes from running Gallaudet University. They also show it by violently resisting most attempts to create bridges out of the so called 'crab theory' syndrome that keeps many of the deaf community members in a prison of silence.
We are all for advancing the deaf community through mitigation of their hearing and speech disabilities. Two of our board members serve on UCI's Stem Cell PAC as one of the avenues we use to help the new deaf generation escape the prison of silence among other ailments.
What we ask from you is for your continued support in helping the deaf community advance with civilization and helping them escape the prison of silence. Please support the oral deaf schools, please support the application of latest medical innovations to mitigate hearing loss such as cochlear and brain stem implants, and support the organizations like ours for advocating these avenues for the new deaf generations.
Also we ask for you is to give a hard look at the Deaf Bilingual Coalition and consider adding them to the lists of domestic terrorists since their members have been violently resistant to advancements of the deaf community. They show it through numerous videoblogging activities and violent activities at deaf socials and expo events.
Finally we ask you to help millions of deaf Americans and deaf Californians escape the prison of silence with your support of oral deaf schools, medical innovations, and suppressing violence from members of the deaf community that are resistant to advancing with civilization.
We look forward to a response from you once you have taken the opportunity to look into the matter.
Thank you,
Richard Roehm

VICE PRESIDENT JOE BIDEN ANNOUNCES KAREEM DALE AS SPECIAL ASSISTANT TO THE PRESIDENT FOR DISABILITY POLICY
First Time a President has had a Special Assistant Focused Exclusively on Disability Policy
BOISE, ID – Vice President Joe Biden today announced Kareem Dale as Special Assistant to the President for Disability Policy. The Vice President, who was leading a Presidential Delegation at the 2009 Special Olympics World Winter Games in Boise, Idaho, made the announcement during a stop at the Special Olympics’ Healthy Athletes Event, a worldwide program in which athletes receive a variety of health screenings and services.
“The commitment that the President and I have to Special Olympics and people with disabilities is deep and abiding. And we are backing up those words with real action at the White House,” said Vice President Biden. “This is our first step to ensure that we have a strong advocate for people with disabilities at the highest levels of our Administration.”
Dale, who is partially blind, will have direct access to the President in this role and he will coordinate the Administration’s efforts to ensure that people with disabilities are on a level playing field with all Americans.
Originally from Chicago, Illinois, Dale previously served as the National Disability Director for the Obama for America campaign. He also served on the Arts Policy Committee and the Disability Policy Committee for then-Senator Obama.
Dale graduated from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign with a Bachelor's degree in Advertising in May 1995. He received his JD/MBA in May 1999 from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, graduating Cum Laude. While attending law school, Dale was also active in community service, including serving as president of two organizations, the Black Law Students' Association and Open Forum.
