America Can Wait For A Truely Influential First Woman President

Don't settle for the idea of what could be, but wait for a woman worthy to be President.

The day America becomes a nation represented by a powerful woman will be yet another profound event within history.

However, it’s plain as day to see that Hillary Clinton should not be that woman.

It’s easy to believe that many people, mainly women, can be swept up in the idea of having a woman as the president. Such an occurrence could potentially establish huge strides and credibility toward the influence and strength among the female population. Woman will finally feel as though they have an equal voice against the male population, which woman have been fighting to gain for decades. But what many people fail to recognize is that we once had an unofficial woman president, and that woman, Eleanor Roosevelt, holds a strong reputation and standard proving that a woman has already influenced the white house and influenced America, and the future success of America is not lead by a woman like Hillary Clinton.

Hillary Clinton is wrapped up in continuous scandals, lies and manipulations, and such a woman isn’t fit to run a country. She’s proven to be irresponsible and untrustworthy. Her actions pre-presidency clearly give the American people a glimpse into the type of president she will be. Her actions have only shown her heart lies within a selfish nature and not for the well-being of the American people.

When a woman comes to office that woman should hold high morals and standards, not only for herself but with her actions because those actions will represent the people of America. Leadership is more than simply leading a group of individuals. Leadership involves inherent abilities that establish a good leader from an extraordinary leader.

Eleanor Roosevelt represented the type of leader who was able to step up in stressful times of crisis. She took over the demanding job of President Franklin D. Roosevelt during his time of illness, all through a period when women battled to gain rights and equality. She established a clear vision by advocating for women’s rights, the rights and needs of the poor, minorities, the disadvantaged and all as the first lady of the United States. By doing so, her vision was shared throughout the country, as her sensitivity and love for others inevitably lead people to follow her causes. She stepped in and created change by not only protecting the presidential foundation of Franklin D. Roosevelt, but also establishing her own agenda to create change in the lives of those in need.

Eleanor Roosevelt stood by her morals and values by firmly holding on to what she believed in, regardless of public approval. She became a leader who influenced change and encouraged peace as she took full advantage of the power she possessed to make an everlasting difference in the world.

A woman like Eleanor Roosevelt stepped into the role as the president, showing the American people that women are strong enough to be influential leaders who can successfully run a country. So, how can the American people support a woman like Hillary who has repeatedly failed before even stepping foot into the shoes of the presidency? A woman who proves to have abandoned her morals for the desires of being named the president.

It’s safe to say that everyone is flawed in some way or another, however, this country is in desperate need of a positively, profound and influential leader, and that person should not be Hillary. The women within America have fought long and hard for our rights and our equality, and the American people should wait for an exceptional and moral woman to take the role and title as the first woman president of the United States of America. The American people deserve nothing less.

So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
