For as long as America can remember we've only had male presidents. However, things had a really good chance of changing when Hilary Clinton ran for president in 2016. Women have become a lot of things over the years, but never, not once, have they become the President of the United States. For so many simple reasons, this needs to change.

1. Women CAN do things as good as a man does.

There are still some people in this world who think that women can't do anything as good as a man can. That is exactly what women have been trying to prove wrong for years since they entered the workforce. But a female president of the country is several steps higher than those jobs!

2. This would be an inspirational historical event to girls for years to come.

All the women and girls in the current world only remember men as presidents. Having a woman president is the proof they need that women can not only do anything as good as a man but also that they can do whatever they put their mind to.

3. Imagine the other changes this would bring.

If a woman became president, chances are she would pay closer attention to things like the glass ceiling, and gender inequality (basically like what Hilary Clinton promised).

4. They already did a good job as First Ladies.

They have been working in the shadows of their husbands, the presidents, for years. What makes you think they couldn't take it up a notch?

5. If a queen could rule, why not a female president?

Alright, so everything Queen Elizabeth does has to go through the Prime Minister first but still, this is not much different!

So, all things considered (especially considering how far women's rights have come over the last several years), why not?

There are plenty of obstacles that come when taking care of kids, but it's a very rewarding experience.

As a college student, being a nanny over the summer is both enjoyable and challenging. Underneath the seemingly perfect trips to the pool or countless hours spent playing Monopoly are the obstacles that only nannies will understand. Trading in your valuable summer vacation in return for three months spent with a few children less than half your age may seem unappealing, but so many moments make it rewarding. For my fellow summer nannies out there, I know you can relate.

There are a lot of really easy, common names in the U.S. and while many of those simple names have different spellings, most of the time, pronunciation is not an issue that those people need to worry about. However, others are not as fortunate and often times give up on corrections after a while. We usually give an A+ for effort. So, as you could probably imagine, there are a few struggles with having a name that isn’t technically English. Here are just a few…

Puerto Ricans. They are very proud people and whether they were born on the island or born in the United States by Puerto Rican parent(s). It gets even better when they meet another fellow Puerto Rican or Latino in general. You’ll know quickly if they are Puerto Rican whether the flag is printed somewhere on their person or whether they tell you or whether the famous phrase “wepa!” is said.
