The Federal Bureau of Narcotics (no "Enforcement") no longer exists, as it was merged with the Bureau of Drug Abuse Control to become the Bureau of Narcotics and Dangerous Drugs in 1968. That agency became what is now known as the Drug Enforcement Agency (DEA) in 1973. They will be able to help you much more than the ATF (Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives). Anyways, the president will not be able to help you either. If you feel that you cannot trust your local or county law enforcement officials, you can contact your state law enforcement agency, or your state attorney general's office for assistance.

The President will not be able to help with your situation.
The cops do not think selling drugs is no big deal. However, knowing who the drug dealers are and proving it in court are two different things. In order to arrest and prosecute dealers, it takes money to fund the operation. Then, once the officers make the arrest, the judge sets a bond. The dealer makes the bond and sells more drugs to make enough money to pay the attorney. The judge and/or jury may or may not find him guilty. Even if he is found guilty (the DA can always offer a deal), you have the board of probation and parole to deal with.
The officers do the best they can with the limited resources available. And, contrary to the movies, very few cops are actually on the take.
Officers have a multitude of responsibilities, part of which is traffic control. Traffic laws are made to make the roads safe, not just to let officers write tickets. Traffic accidents are usually not accidents but actually caused by someone violating a traffic law.
If you had to help Rescue and EMS pull a broken, bloody, lifeless teenager out of a car that straightened out a curve, you might have a different view of speeding.
Law enforcement is a whole different world than the one you live in. Cut us a little slack, because one day you might be the one dialing 911.

The prez won't do much. If the cops are useless, take it to the mayor of the town. You may get a lot accomplished in elections year

You don't want to direct this to the President, you want to direct this to the Federal Bureau of Narcotics Enforcement. They should be listed in the phone directory of the nearest MAJOR city to wherever you live.
