What world leader do you admire?
None currently.
How would you change the world?
I would change the world by influencing tolerance and
equality.
How would you change your neighborhood?
I would eliminate gang violence and become more involved
in my community.
What have you learned about power?
Power is a dangerous thing. It is a good thing, but is
mostly a reflection of the beholder.
Is power a good thing?
Depends.
What makes a good leader?
A good leader is a person who tries to listen as best
they can to their subjects.
Who have been some of the best U.S. presidents, and why?
Abraham Lincoln; for abolishing slavery, John F. Kennedy;
for actually caring about equality, and Bill Clinton; for actually working
and listening to the country (for a change).
Who have been some of the worst U.S. presidents, and why?
George Bush; for not truly caring what happened to his
country while he was in presidency, George W. Bush; for trying to be an exact
replica of his father and his poor decisions.
When you become an adult, what do you think will be the biggest problem facing our nation and/or world?
Hopefully not, but most likely, problems concerning age-old
problems involving intolerance.
If you had the power to change one or two things about our country right now, what would it be?
Racism, bigotry, intolerance, oppression, and unfairness.
If you could put into place one law that pertains to kids in our country, what would it be?
Kids would have the right to vote, granting us a more
active role in the progress of our countries.
Why are some people rich and others poor?
In some cases the difference in social status occurs
from lack of proper education other cases are from unfair views inspired by
bigotry, racism, and intolerance. All of which, even though some are intent
on ignoring it, still exist on the heart of several problems.
Do you believe global warming is a fact or a myth? If you think it is a fact, what would you do about it if you were in charge?
I'm not one hundred percent sure that global warming
is real, but even so I would take as many steps as were required to prevent
it.
If you were in charge of immigration, would everyone be allowed to enter the country? Would illegal immigrants be allowed to stay?
If I were in charge of immigration those that were already
in the country would be allowed to stay, but those who were outside of the
country would be required to take a series of tests and exams first for the
sake of economy.
If you were in charge of education, would art class be as important as math?
Definitely. I believe that self expression is just as
(if not more) important as any mathematical equation there is.
Do you belong to any organizations or clubs?
Not currently. I used to sing in a choir and I was a
sort of theatre troupe.
If you could switch places with one person, who would it be and why?
No one. I have contemplated that question many
times. But I can go no further but to think that there is no one I would rather
be than myself.
