You would not let an uneducated farmer perform a doctor's job, the farmer would have no idea what they are talking about.

Politics may seem like a whole different world to us, but those who participate in running our country have the same struggles. “A Woman In the House (and Senate)” by Ilene Cooper is one of many “movements” that are in attempt to assist America's understanding the rights and roles of women in society.

Some of my personal favorites are when a congresswoman was seen as half of a person and had to share a seat, when a female representative couldn’t attend an awards dinner because it was hosted at a men’s club, and of course, when womenfolk as a whole were not granted the right to vote until 1920. It’s hard to imagine what it would feel like to be held back because of your gender, but the publication also highlights the achievements of these women during their time in the Senate or House of Representatives.

Hillary Clinton has made many promises that she plans to fulfill if she is to be elected and some of them are complete opposites of the Republican candidate Donald Trump’s views. Hillary Clinton has declared that she would like to accomplish such objectives. Out of the many objectives that she has states the three that I would like to cover on such as when she stated that “for families making less than $125,000 a year, [she] will eliminate tuition” for in-state students of public colleges, getting rid of the tax loopholes for the rich, and increasing the federal minimum wage. These objectives seem to be hard to accomplish since each of them would require copious amounts of money and effort. One of her objectives is to make public college free
Human rights, education, and child poverty are some big issues that are sometimes overlooked in the United States. There are many candidates that are running for the 2016 presidential election.
