Dear Friends: American ambassadors have been assigned to supporters of the President or State Department Secretary for their campaign finance. This tradition may not be so bad, thus we did not see much criticism or challenges against it. However, considering the recent high tensions in Pacific Asia involving Japan, China,Russia and both Koreas, we should change this tradition to improve the process to nominate American ambassadors. President Obama will nominate a new Ambassador to Japan. Let’s help him to make the right choice by nominating a Japan expert with human rights background, because American helped Asian people to defeat the largest human rights violation in our human history. We recommend you use the following sample letter to ask President Obama to nominate Dr. Jing Zhao, or other suitable candidate, by phone, fax, mail or online filling-in. Let’s make our voices heard to promote freedom, democracy and human rights to build peace, security and prosperity in Asian Pacific! 各位朋友: 美国驻外大使通常由总统(或国务卿)按照竞选时得到的财务支持分配给其支持者,这种旧习一般看不出多大危害。但近来围绕东亚发生的一系列事态使得我们不得不关注美国驻日大使的任命的重要性。现任大使作为前国务卿克林顿女士的财务支持者即将退任,让我们向奥巴马总统推荐一位深知日本的人权专家,因为美国帮助了亚洲民众打败了日本帝国主义这个人类历史上对人权最严重的罪行。我们向公众推荐赵京博士,大家也可以推荐自己认为合适的人选,请参照或印制我们的推荐信样本,用电话、邮寄或网上填写告诉奥巴马总统我们的心声。让我们以自由、民主与人权的理想共建亚太的和平、安全与繁荣!

To deal with the extremely complicated social, political, cultural and historical issues, American needs aJapan expert with human rights experience as our Ambassador to Japan, our largest alliance in Asia. Dr. Jing Zhao is uniquely the perfect expert to serve this position to realize your Pivot to Asia policy. Jing Zhao campaigned for free elections of student bodies in the early 1980s when he studied Nuclear Physics at Tsinghua University in Beijing. He organized Chinese students’ human rights activities during the Tiananman democratic movement in 1989 when he studied Sociology at Osaka University in Japan. He came to the U.S. as Research Fellow at Political Science Department of University of Wisconsin-Madison in 1995. As President of US-Japan-China Comparative Policy Research Institute since 2002 and Co-founder of Humanitarian China since 2007, Dr. Zhao has published hundreds of articles and twenty books (including The US-Japan Alliance) in Chinese, English, and Japanese. One of his essays was awarded Excellent Prize by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Japan in 1989 from the late Abe Shitaro, father of the current Japanese Prime Minister. In 1993, he was honored as "China's Conscience" for promoting democracy by Hong Kong's Democracy Alliance. In 2003, Santa Clara County honored him "Silicon Valley's Outstanding Immigrant" on “Immigrants Proud Day.” He has criticized Yahoo, News Corp., Goldman Sachs, advised Intel, HP, Microsoft, and helped Google, Cisco, Chevron and others to improve their corporate social responsibility and human rights policy. We highly recommend you nominate Dr. Jing Zhao to be our Ambassador to Japan to help promote freedom, democracy and human rights for peace, security and prosperity in Asian Pacific.
