Below is the rough draft of the letter I would like to send to Mark Rosewater. I think this meets with the sights of the CPA when it was founded, and I would like to get involved in this sort of thing. Even though it isn't earth-shattering, it at least lets us try to open a dialogue with WotC, which I am sure was one of the founding purposes of the CPA.
Any suggestions or changes? If there isn't anything fundamentally wrong with it, I'll have it sent off to Maro pretty soon.

Dear Mark,
I'm writing you on behalf of the Casual Players Alliance. Our group was started with the intent of giving casual players of Magic: The Gathering a voice. A voice that might not be listened to, but could at least be heard by Wizards of the Coast.
Keeping with the group's mission, I'd like to let you know about a vote that was conducted at the website recently. We posted a vote thread that was made public by a front page link. (The thread can be found here for reference: http://www.casualplayers.org/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=13284). The vote concerned the question: "How likely are you to play the new Arcbound mechanic?"
Here are the results of the vote:
I'm building a whole deck dedicated to it! = 4
I'll put a lot in an artifact-heavy deck. = 0
I'll use a few in various decks. = 2
Maybe I'll play one or two. = 2
Get this trash away from me! = 2
As of this writing, 48 replies have been posted in the thread. Though only ten votes were cast, the choice with the largest votes was the one most in support of the new Arcbound mechanic. This is probably not surprising at all, as the mechanic has a very casual feel to it.
Thank you for your time,
