To: President-Elect Barack Obama We citizens of The United States of America request the appointment of Michael Pollan to the Office of Secretary of Agriculture of the United States of America.
Through his academic lectures and papers, published books and articles Mr. Pollan has proven capable of gathering wide-ranging research, organizing it into a coherent whole and reaching non-biased conclusions. This research has provided him a unique understanding of the history, development, and contemporary practices of U.S. Agriculture and its relationship to the health of the citizens of The United States. He is singularly qualified to identify inefficiencies and present improvements in production, nutrition, and our problematic reliance on petroleum and petro-chemical based fertilizers, for the benefit of food producers and consumers both. As an academic and journalist, Mr. Pollan is free of the type of conflicts of interest rampant in the current administration which have led to abysmal performance and deficient oversight of industry at the expense of the people.
It is our belief that this scholarly approach coupled with his unique ability to synergize and coherently communicate to a wide audience makes Mr. Pollan the best choice for Secretary of Agriculture in an administration whose stated goals include affordable health and healthcare for the citizens of this nation and wholesale change from the practices of the Bush administration.

It is well past the time (if there ever was one) when the appointment of special interest group advocates to oversee key government agencies could be justified. When will your cabinet appointments signify and reflect the change that you promised in your campaign??

Michael Pollan has great knowledge of the US's agriculture and history and the opportunities and dangers that lie ahead and he would make a great impact in an administration of "change"!

I believe this would be the most crucial and revolutionary appointment Obama could make. It would usher in genuine beneficial change.
