Our relationship through these letters could have inspired the first woman to hold the position
of the Speaker of U.S. House of Representative, as the leader of the U.S. House Representative as a whole. If you might sitll
remember, on September 21, 2006 I wrote a letter of Nancy Reagan's Objection on Jim Webb Campaign,
about former first lady Nancy Reagan’s objection on Jim Webb’s using the name of her husband Ronald Reagan for his poltical campaign.
Such objection appeared after my working the painting of "Paris Hilton RR Phantom",
whereas in that painting Paris was riding a Rolls Royce Phantom with me and Rolls Royce’ "RR" is like former president’s
Ronald Reagan’s initial of "RR".
And when President Bush gave his State of the Union address, it was Senator Jim Webb (Democrats, Virginia) who took the opportunity
to give Democrats response.
Like written in the website of the House of Representative Speaker,
the position of the House Speaker has important roles, among which is second in the line of succession to the presidency after the Vice President
under the Presidential Succession Act of 1947.

Before President Bush nominated Mr. Robert Gates to become the new
US Secretary of Defense, I was just placing the painting of Paris Hilton wearing blue dress on the wall. It was the
painting of "Paris Crystal", about Paris Hilton with the crystal swan of Swarovski in the foreground.
Actually I have finished the painting a few months earlier, yet as usual sometimes a painter like to make some correction to the finished painting.
When later on Mr. Robert Gates was confirmed to be the US Defense Secretary, I felt like the painting
has contained a historical moment related to US Defense.

The first time I heard about the name of Mr. Christopher Hill, I was in the middle
of writing some letters to Paris Hilton. When recently came the news about Mr. Christopher Hill success in the deal of North Korean
nuclear disarmament, I thank God for it could be another historical moment to add to my writing letters to Paris Hilton and
to you, for the good of this world.
