When a boy is small, and innocent of the world's influences, he may dream of one day becoming the President of his country. He may imagine himself walking tall through the halls of the majestic White House, with an aide carrying his coat. Never does one hear from a little girl that she wishes to be the President, and seldom does a girl dream of attaining such a position. Instead she must dream of one day, meeting a man who has the aspirations of becoming the President, and who has intentions of marrying her, and making her a distinguished First Lady. I believe that the time has come and gone, and come again, for little girls of our country to begin dreaming big. The only way to accomplish such a goal, would be to elect a woman for the presidency.

Only a woman can clean up the mess that the men have made of our country in the last few terms. Men have always been the bullies that run our country, and the women are always forced into the background. The Presidents receive all of the glory, while the wife is to look good, host parties, make appearances that the President can not make it to, and keep the home. Some people may think that it is high time that women are cast from the shadows, and regarded as more than keepers of the home, mothers, and hostesses. The First Lady is involved in every facet of a President's life, when he awakes each morning, and when he retires at night. She lies beside him in the residence, where he may get at any hour an urgent phone call and be summoned to the Oval office, or the situation room. Why then, can not the woman be the President? America is the promised land, yet it remains alone in the fact that we have never had a woman for our President.

Hillary Clinton deserves the Presidency, simply put. She has worked her entire career either for the government, or as some sort of public official. She was a lawyer, a First Lady of Arkansas, the First Lady of America, and went on to be a heralded Senator. She has been gearing for this for years, perhaps even her entire life. As a woman, I would be overwhelmingly proud to be a part of a historic moment where a fellow woman would be elected to the most important post in our country. She is admirable, she carries herself extremely well, and she is brilliant. Had I rather Hillary Clinton in all her genius be considered a role model opposed to the Hollywood royalty fashionista's with very little sense, and even fewer brains? Absolutely. Young girls in our world deserve to see, and be
