Growing up I always wanted to be something spectacular; to grow up and one day be someone that everybody knows, everybody loves, and a role model to those growing up to be the same. The jobs kids dream of being often range from astronaut, model, singer, rock-star, doctor, teacher, pilot, firefighter, police officer, all the way to superman, bat man, cat woman, captain America, and even wonder woman. But has anyone ever mentioned politics? Of course there’s been the idea of being President one day, but has anyone actually thought about what that might mean?
I have a lack of confidence in the youth of today when it comes to the topic of politics and what our country will be like based on the minds of this generation. The reason is because I, along with many other kids, have no desire or drive to run a country slowly crumbling into dust. I realize that things can be fixed, but who has the guts to fix them? I feel like kids today don’t believe a lot of the things that adults seem to be drawn to. Between my friends and I, we’ve come to a decision that fairness should be possible, but is almost virtually impossible. How could the world be fair if so many people refuse to be agreeable? The idea of agreeing on one thing as a world, and as a country, seems to the dim-minded an easy concept. But to those of us who realize what has been portrayed in other countries and places around the world and even in America, the idea is anything BUT an easy concept. So how can the President manage to make decisions that this United States can agree on? Or does he not? Does he really just do what the majority agrees on, although the rest think it is or isn’t best? Unfortunately I’ve come to the conclusion that the President must do what he and the rest of his political party believe is right, but when it comes down to it… is that really fair?
When I grow up… I want to be the editor in chief of Vogue Magazine. My passions are art, fashion, and writing, so that job seems absolutely perfect. But, if I’m doing my fabulous job as editor in chief of Vogue Magazine, then who will be the politician?
