Women are an important part of society. We are the steel thread that helps to hold the nation together. For a long time, we have tried to become a part of the political world, and during the 2008 presidential election, we came close. By having women represent the public in the political world, we would gain a new perspective; something different from the traditional male views'
In 2008, a woman, by the name of Sarah Palin, ran for vice-president. She truly inspired women throughout the country and helped others to believe that we can change the world we have come to know. Palin did more than just run in the election, she helped to raise morality in the country while maintaining freedom. Palin helped the country to realize just how important are troops are and that they will still be important no matter what happens. She did this by helping women to believe that their opinion and vote do matter. More women are exercising their right to freedom of speech through voting in today's world.
Because of Sarah Palin, I will make sure that I register to vote in the upcoming elections. She has allowed me to believe and feel that my vote and opinion do matter. I am also a proud American who believes that women have the right and privilege to serve and run for offices of political power.
