Grammyism: "It would have been nice to have seen a woman become president."
Now, more than ever, is the time to pay attention to politics. Despite your political views, it can not be denied that this will be the most talked about and studied election for years to come du to its 'uniqueness'.
Whether we like it or not, History was made with Donald J. Trump becoming president Elect. There has never been a man elected president who has been more unqualified than Donald Trump. He has not held a position or seat in any office, and he was never in the military. Frankly, he is not a politician at all, and perhaps that is what won him the presidency.
I am not here to convince you to like him or not, but I am trying to convince you all that it is important to pay attention, especially now, in a world that is divided.
President Obama recently delivered his Farewell Address. If you have not had a chance to watch it, I highly suggest you do so. I was a powerful and moving address. History has been made. Our first Black President is soon leaving office. On January 20th, we will say goodbye to the man that most of us have grown up with as the leader of our country.
Get ready for the questions your future children and grandchildren will have for you, because believe me, there will be tons. Also, please remember to stay strong throughout these next few weeks. As Ellen DeGeneres always says, be kind to one another.
1. I wrote this post in a time of urgency and importance. History is being made and I am passionate about what is happening in our world. I wrote this post to make people care. 2. I difficulty not showing too much bias in this post, but I didn't really do a good job with that. I didn't want to insult anyone though. 3. The rehetorical purpose of this post was to inspire my audience to stand up for what they believe, become engaged, and make a change in this world.
