I agree with what you're saying in the letter, but what are you trying to accomplish? If you’re trying to convince him, your tone is way too confrontational. You're basically trying to take his head off. There's no way he knows as much about this stuff as you. You could probably convince him the party was wrong on this issue if you calmly explain the facts. A letter like this is likely to harden his position however because he'll fell like he's under attack and find some reason in his own mind to dismiss your arguments.

I agree with this assessment. As the president of your university's club, he probably has the ears of many. But the substance of this email is great and I don't think you should hesitate to send this information to any outlets that will hear it.
