One 44-cent First Class stamp is all you need to mail a letter (weighing up to one ounce) anywhere within the United States. Postage is decided by the weight of the letter, not where it's coming from and going to. As long as the letter weighs one ounce or less, and is going to someplace within the U.S., it just needs one 44-cent stamp.
If the letter does weigh over one ounce, then you can go to the post office and either have a teller take care of it, or use one of the automated machines (if they have one). The machine will weigh the letter and print out the postage for you, but I'm pretty sure the machines only take credit or debit cards (no cash).
The postage is the same for all first class mail addressed to any destination in the USA. The stamp costs 42 cents right now if I remember correctly. There are discounts for pre-sorted bulk mailings.
It is 42 cents until 11 May 2009 when it becomes 44 cents for a one ounce of a standard size and shape of First Class letter.
The price of a letter is forty one cents any where in the United States.
Put a 42 cent stamp on it. - Stuart

No, you cannot. You must meet the cost for a letter which will be 98 cents. The Forever stamp is only 44 cents.
One. It needs to be a first class stamp and the letter needs to be one ounce or less.
The reason you need a stamp to mail a letter is because the stamp is the proof that you paid for your letter to be delivered. Instead of paying the mailman directly, and waiting for him to come to your house so you can pay the mailman to deliver your mail, the stamp proves that you paid for the delivery of the mail.
Of course
It depends on the size and weight, but if it's a regular letter, a 44-cent stamp will suffice.
A normal letter requires just one first class stamp to be delivered anywhere within the USA.
