My favorite comment from the first article by '912er' in response to someone who says Jackie should decline the invitation to sing for the inaugural: Jackie is a uniter not a divider

I feel sorry for Andrea's persecutors. Fear and ignorance can make people do things they will come to regret. But I am hopeful, because with regret often comes a change of heart...

You're very kind ben. On the other hand, I'm very "sorry" that any of them are registered to vote. A rather hopeless and whiney bunch that best fit the adage: "You can't fix stupid".

Jackie has shared this post, calling for an end to the campaign against her: www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=10154768787502719&set=gm.451324278563027&type=3The original post has already been shared over 18,000 times. I have written to the USA Embassy in Australia (text of the email below). I invite any interested citizen of the United Kingdom to consider sending a similar email to the USA embassy there. - - - quote - - - Dear Sirs, I am writing to express concern at an event unfolding on the International stage involving the inaugeration of President Elect Donald Trump. The young singer Jackie Evancho has accepted the role of singing your National Anthem, just as she has sung for President Obama, various Capital Forth, Memorial Day and other patriotic events. There is currently an organised campaign of intimidation being waged against her on social media, attempting to make her withdraw from the ceremony. Jackie has active fan clubs in America, Australia, Brazil, Denmark, France, Germany, Russia, the United Kingdom and Vietnam to name a few. Her many fans around the world are dismayed that a young and talented girl, the face of America for many of us, is being assaulted by those whom she served with patriotism and respect. She is not old enough to vote. Instead, she sings for her country. While there is probably little that Embassy staff can do to remedy this situation, I ask you to increase awareness of the issue as you can. Yours sincerely, Robin Bermanseder
