Pros And Cons Of Being A President

Decent Essays
As a ninth grade student, I will be able to vote in the next presidential elections. Due to having Donald Trump as our president, I worry about how our country will turn out. I believe that everyone should be able to know what is going on and what is going to happen in the 4 years Trump is president. We all should have a say on what goes or not. I am concerned about Trump’s thoughts on war and peace. Donald believes that we need the “element of surprise” and people need to stop say “where we’ll attack.” He believes he would be slower to go to war than Hillary would be. He wants to keep troops in afghanistan. Trump would like to strengthen the military and act defensively, and use force to stop North Korea's nuke development. Trump

    When people began judging president Trump for the idea of a ban on Muslims entering the United States, he quoted as a relevant historical event, World War II and the proclamations issued by then-President Franklin D.

In my generation, it seems that most people get out to vote just to vote, without really doing their research, and I do not believe that this is what voting is all about.…

    As I embark on a journey to adulthood, I often find myself referring back to my résumé’s roadmap to define where I was, where I am, and where I will be. I find that it has been decorated with formality and intriguing action verbs like orchestrated, designed, and executed, throughout the years, yet the simplest sentence on the page makes me most proud. “I am a chicago public school graduate” and that simple statement defines who I am more than any other statement.

Luckily, during my 13 years in Chicago Public Schools I was able to build upon my basic…
