Talking Point 5 (pg 28-32)
The passage I found most interesting was when the children were saying how the president should help the homeless and poverty. I mean whenever I was a child, I always thought the same thing. I grew up thinking that I wanted to make a change and help everyone who was suffering in the world. The injustice that I felt was going around made me so upset that I grew up with a serious attitude. Though I always had many things to say, I’d bottle it up inside me and I’d be too shy to speak up. I’m slowly changing now and I have more confident. “Clinton said he’d take care of the homeless people if he got elected and look what he’s done,” said a second student. “Nothing” (page 30). This is what all presidents do. They tell us stuff we want to hear and stuff that they’ll do and provide us. Though once they are elected, nothing happens. I could agree with what this student said, because it is true.
