How our presidents have changed the country:
Abraham Lincoln helped stop slavery. Barack Obama is the first African American president of the USA and I think that sends out a message that anybody can become president not just if they are white. He will be a president just like any other. He might have some different ideas but other presidents had different ideas too and that’s fine.
