What world leader do you admire?
I'd have to say probably Susan B. Anthony
because she started fighting for women's rights when she was just
17. She lead protests and speeches and look at all of the women
that have governmental leadership positions now.
How would you change the world?
I'd want to travel and help the poorer countries
develop more by establishing schools, shelters and hospitals.
How would you change your neighborhood?
I live on a busy street and my neighborhood
doesn't have sidewalks. Everyone goes rollerblading and biking
on the street which is really dangerous, so I'd try to get sidewalks
made.
What have you learned about power?
Power depends on your problem solving skill,
ability to communicate with others and to be able to incorporate
other ideas into your own.
Is power a good thing?
Power can be a good thing when you use it
for the good of other people.
What makes a good leader?
Knowing how to listen to people and put their
ideas into your own. You also should know how to communicate with
people so they understand you and I believe that it's better to
be liked than feared if you're a leader.
Who have been some of the best U.S. presidents,
and why?
My family came to America when George W.
Bush was in office so we have only felt the affect he's had on
the nation.

When you become an adult, what do you think
will be the biggest problem facing our nation and/or world?
Feeding and getting jobs for the always increasing
population.
If you had the power to change one or two
things about our country right now, what would it be?
Poverty and wars.
If you could put into place one law that pertains
to kids in our country, what would it be?
All kids enrolled in school, must finish
their education.
Why are some people rich and others poor?
People choose different paths of life that
lead to different outcomes like becoming rich or poor.
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 think that global warming is slowly becoming
a fact and if I were in charge, I'd do something to reduce the
pollution from factories, cars and airplanes.
If you were in charge of immigration, would
everyone be allowed to enter the country? Would illegal immigrants
be allowed to stay?
Before allowing people to enter the country,
I would somehow make sure that they have a good background and
that they intend on doing something progressive while they are
here. If we let immigrants in, we might let some terrorists in
too. However, in America, there are a lot of new job opportunities
opening up and some immigrants can't get jobs in their country,
so why not try here? I think that illegal immigrants would only
be allowed to stay if they are willing to work, can support their
families, and have a good record.
If you were in charge of education, would
art class be as important as math?
Yes. Math is very important in life. However,
art surrounds us everywhere. The sunrise, the flowers, mountains,
fire, water – it's all a form of art. Each house is artwork
and if you never learned about art, then how would you decorate
it?
Do you belong to any organizations or clubs?
Not at this moment.
If you could switch places with one person,
who would it be and why?
Angelina Jolie because she is a really good
actress and she does a lot of humanitarianism work.
