My Vote

In my opinion I think that presidential elections are very important! Many people think that their vote doesn't matter, they think "what good could one more vote do?" But it does matter! That one more vote could have tied the election, or caused the winning of maybe one of the greatest presidents in history! I am sadly too young to vote, but if it was up to me I would have voted for Obama. Only because I like change and it seemed like he really had a lot to offer, I'm not so sure about that now though. Just remember, every vote counts!

Character

Character can either be overlooked or underestimated and this is all because of personal image.  Back then it was all about character, what a person looked like hardly crossed ones mind. For example Abraham Lincoln, was very tall, lengthy and hairy! Abe wasn't seen as that thought, he was noticed for his intelligence and vision as a leader. Nowadays, the media has shaped character to be more about the image than ones true self. A person is more likely to become popular because of their beautiful/handsome image than because they are a good person at heart. So, what do you want to be known for?
