Narrative Essay: If I Were President

Have you ever thought about what you’d do if you were ever elected president of the United States of America? The 2016 elections were the subject of much debate over who would make the best president. There are many people who don’t feel like the right person was elected and have speculated extensively on whether he’s up for the job. Of course, there are plenty of people who are glad he was given the job over the other candidate. Do you think you could do a better job?

If I were president, I would take the emphasis off of racial ethnicity and class and place it back where the Constitution began, which is that everyone was created equal. It doesn’t matter where you’re from or what you look like, we are all people and all deserve the same rights. At the same time, America is a welcoming country and people should be taking the proper steps to become a legal resident of the country. If this were the case, there would be fewer people who have trouble with minorities because they wouldn’t be using resources that belong to American citizens when they were not legally entitled to them.

If I were president, children wouldn’t go hungry. Those with enough would be compelled to share and those who were lacking would get the help they need. The amount of food that is thrown away in America is appalling when so many people are going without a meal. Grocery stores could give their surplus or less than perfect looking produce to food banks. Restaurants could donate end of the day leftovers to food kitchens or homeless shelters. Never again would a child have to feel the pains of being hungry.

If I were president, education wouldn’t be so controversial. Parents would support teachers and teachers would support parents. Neither would be against the other and each would be focused solely on the education of the child and ensuring that he or she has a bright future. Funding would be pulled from politicians paychecks to help pay for the needs of every school. Teachers would be properly trained to work with students of all kinds and would be paid accordingly. After all, the future of the world depends on today’s children so shouldn’t our money be going to that over anything else?

If I were president, the environment would become a top concern. People would be motivated to recycle and reuse things so that landfills could be kept from taking over their communities. Research dollars would be allocated toward developing environmentally friendly fuel sources and people and companies would be compensated for choosing solar panels and other things that are better for the environment. Protecting our world is important for future generations and educating the public about what they can do to help would be a top priority.

If I were president, kindness would prevail and people would treat those around them with love, respect and basic courtesy. There wouldn’t be any resources wasted on petty arguments and fights between neighbors or family members. I know I might be wearing rose colored glasses, but if people truly treated others as they want to be treated, the world would be a better place for everyone.

Not everyone can become the president, but if those that do were better at doing what the people need and trying not to be ruled by money, every citizen of the country would benefit in a big way. If we all come together and do what’s best for the nation instead of one population or individual, the United States would be an even better place to live.

President for a day virgil abloh ashnikko shea coulee

What would you do if you were president for a day?

As the election of a lifetime approaches, virgil abloh, ashnikko, drakeo, shea couleé, and more discuss what’s at stake, what they’d do in the white house, and the state of the american dream.

On November 3, Americans will get themselves to the polls and send either Joe Biden or Donald Trump to the White House. Millions have already exercised their right via mail in record numbers. On Dazed this week, we’ve heard from teenagers across the states – both disillusioned and galvanised, but ready for a fight – who stand for a generation that’s turning out in their droves , spurred on by issues from climate change to Black Lives Matter and reproductive rights. We’re also heard from the most marginalised, the incarcerated who won’t get their say, and the state of affairs in the election linchpin states.

Figures from across culture, fashion, politics, activism, and enclaves of the internet today on Dazed tell us what they would do if they were president for a day. What issues are impacting their choice at the ballot box? What, do they believe, is the state of the American dream in a world marred by pandemic, racial inequality, and political polarisation? Brooke Candy speaks on sex work decriminalisation and Shea Couleé would sort reparations, while Aminé would arrest the cops that killed Breonna Taylor. La’Shaunae would make “WeDontBelieveYou” by Seshollowaterboyz the national anthem, and Jordan Firstman would drug the country and see how that goes, naturally. Can we have a presidential candidate reset?

End Sars – summer 2021

Ashnikko:  If I was only president for that ONE DAY, and then it went straight back to the orange fascist again, I would eat all the spiciest foods I could think of, then take an absolutely disgusting explosive shit all over his desk. I would follow that up by abolishing the police and changing the public school US history curriculum to reflect the actual history, rather than that candy-coated, whitewashed bullshit that we’re taught.

BROOKE CANDY

Brooke Candy

Brooke Candy: I would nominate Bernie Sanders as VP and Oprah as speaker of the house. Then I’d unlock the country’s top secret classified information and share it with the public (specifically alien contact/Area 51); abolish the class system and redistribute all money in the federal reserve to BIPOC and disenfranchised communities; decriminalise sex work and all drugs; eradicate the education system and eliminate all student debt; and maybe, depending on my mood, dose the water supply with DMT to truly elevate this shit.

Drakeo

Drakeo: I would get a task force to find all the racist laws, like 182.5 and California Gang laws, then sign an executive order to rewrite them – like, overturn my people’s convictions, bring back Activis pints, make education free, provide free healthcare, close down men’s central Jail for real, give every family that is descendants of slaves a reparations stimulus, throw a party in the White House with exotic dancers.

Detox

Detox: If I were president for a day I would hit the restart button on the simulation! In all seriousness though, being of minimal political knowledge and experience (not so dissimilar to our current Commander in Cheese), I’d immediately appoint an array of diverse, experienced, thoughtful, and progressive-minded individuals. People whose mission would not be to appeal to the favour of the consistently oppressive powers that be, but to dismantle them. I would do everything in my power to support, protect, and uplift the disenfranchised communities of this nation so that they too could set their sights on The American Dream and have a fighting chance to attain their goals.

I would redistribute the funding of police on a national level and take away power from and make examples of the dirty and corrupt; Overturn drug charges; Make it impossible for men to have any say on what women can or can’t do with their own bodies; Set up funding for the arts in case another catastrophe like the one we’re witnessing now strikes again; And last but not least, I’d establish a connection with extraterrestrial life… and beg them for help!

And Mugler for everyone.

JORDAN FIRSTMAN

Hank willis thomas.

Hank Willis Thomas

Hank Willis Thomas: It appears that one American’s dream is another American’s nightmare. In fact, I sometimes wake up wondering if I’m trapped in someone else’s dream. ‘America‘, after all, was someone else’s dream, nightmarishly built on someone else’s home, with other peoples’ people, and suspect ideas. So much of our time here is spent alone and asleep, daydreaming. Instead of waking dreams, I dream of waking up. Once I awaken, I won’t have any use for dreams. I will not be alone, I will be wide awake to all the things that make this life a gift.

HILLARY TAYMOUR, COLLINA STRADA

Hillary Taymour

Hillary Taymour:  I would eliminate fracking, all plastic use, stop fossil fuel dependency, and elect Bernie (as president) with AOC as VP because I am not qualified to be president.

La’Shaunae – autumn/winter 2019 6

La’Shaunae: If I were president for a day, all my underground favourites would perform in my city. I’d make therapy completely free and more accessible, both online and offline; I’d free Tay-K and paint the White House black; My vice presidents would be the millionaires and America’s national anthem would be “WeDontBelieveYou” by Seshollowaterboyz.

QUIL LEMONS

Quil Lemons

Quil Lemons:  If I was president for a day... All the caucasians to the back. Immediately, immediately. Honestly, thank you. Looks better already.

SHEA COULEÉ

Shea Coulee drag race election

Shea Coulee:  If I were president for the day, I would literally spend it carving out like three trillion dollars in the budget to disperse to Black people for reparations. And I’d be like, ‘alright, I’m good, we got reparations – 400 years too late, but we got them. Thanks, bye!’

VIRGIL ABLOH

Virgil Abloh

Virgil Abloh: My American dream is to see a pure eradication of all injustices effecting Black people, people of colour, and LGTBQ+ communities.

How to Write an If I Were President Essay

Noelle carver.

American children study the U.S. presidents in 4th and 5th grade.

Pretending you are the president is a satisfying imaginative exercise. Thinking of all the rights you would wrong, justices you would bring and people you would save is exciting. While a president does have a lot of business-like work to take care of, like taking required trips and holding meetings and press conferences, she does have time to concentrate on fixing some of her nation's - and the world's - biggest problems. Studying the U.S. presidents in 4th or 5th grade, you may compose an "If I Were President" essay to share how you would run the country if you were elected.

List a few problems or concerns you have about your country or state. For example, if you are experiencing flood damage in your home state, come up with a few ways that you would handle the struggle if you were president.

Outline your essay with a graphic organizer. Draw a large rectangle at the top of a piece of paper and label it "Introduction." Underneath the rectangle, draw three boxes. Connect the boxes with lines to the top rectangle. Label these boxes "Main Idea 1," "Main Idea 2" and "Main Idea 3." Draw three bigger boxes below those and attach them with short lines. Title these boxes "Supporting Details 1, 2 and 3." Underneath the detail boxes, draw another rectangle, like the one at the top and label this one "Conclusion."

Fill in the graphic organizer Introduction box. Start your introductory paragraph with a “grabber” sentence that will get your reader's attention. For instance, write "It's hard enough in 4th grade to get people to like and respect me - imagine if I were president!" Include in the introduction the areas you will cover in your essay, such as how you would stop wars in other countries, help save animals on the endangered species list and improve schools for students like yourself.

Fill the body paragraphs with problems and ideas for solutions. Choose specific, original goals and problem-solving methods. For example, achieving world peace is a traditional presidential goal, but not specific enough. Write more specific problems and exact solutions. For instance, write “If I were president, I would make every Thursday ‘help your neighbor’ day. Everyone would do at least one good duty on that day, such as offering to buy a sick neighbor groceries, staying after school to tutor a child struggling in math or donating to a charity."

Fill in the Conclusion box your essay with a summary of your goals. Write about the larger concept of what you would want to accomplish as president. For example, if your essay focuses mostly on bringing peace to countries in war, discuss how, as president, you would bring the public's attention to issues around the globe by airing a TV special in which you addressed the most urgent conflicts around the world.

What Would You Do if You Were President?

For an Op-Ed piece , 12 Americans who don’t work in politics or the media were asked what they would do if they were president. What would you do? What issues do you think are most pressing?

In the ArtsBeat blog post “If I Were President …,” Jesse Kornbluth asks two professors, three writers, an entrepreneur, a medical doctor, a prioress, a youth advocate, a painter, an astrophysicist and an inventor share what they would do if elected to the Oval Office. Excerpts from their statements include these:

MICHAEL J. SANDEL: I would invest in an infrastructure for civic renewal — not just roads and bridges, but schools, transit, playgrounds, parks, community centers, health clinics, libraries and national service. SHARON OLDS: I’d grant the very rich the boon of helping them help others, as a form of gratitude for their good fortune. ANDREW WEIL: I’d tell the nation that I was powerless to control the war machine, Wall Street, big oil and the other interests that run the country, and I would urge Americans to form a new political party not beholden to them. DANNY MEYER: I’d appoint a blue-ribbon committee of 14 accomplished citizens — one each representing these nonpolitical walks of American life: arts, science, sports, big business, entrepreneurs, tech, medicine, law, education, environment, defense, religion, farming and philanthropy — and charge them with imagining innovative industries that put Americans to work and add value to our world. JAMES Q. WILSON: With my staff, I would decide what my administration was for. Once I had clarified that, I would write several speeches on how to cope with a stagnant economy, how to deal with countries (such as Iran and Syria) that harass their own populations, and how the United States is committed to the survival of Israel. These speeches would not attack the other party or previous presidents but would describe the views I supported. JENNIFER EGAN: I’d decide (privately) from the outset that mine would be a one-term presidency. Freed from the stranglehold of ensuring my own political longevity, I would focus entirely on achieving what I think most Americans want: a stable and productive economy; an environmentally viable planet; a humane, efficient government capable of educating its young and protecting its vulnerable members. SISTER MARY DAVID WALGENBACH: I would require members of Congress to participate in a weeklong workshop on dialogue, negotiation and compromise before the next session. All sessions would begin with 10 minutes of silence. GEOFFREY CANADA: I would have a “grown-up” talk with the American people, emphasizing that we are facing a crisis and solving it will require a spirit of shared sacrifice. Those of us who have benefited mightily from this country and made billions, as well as those who make the minimum wage, must all sacrifice. PATRICIA RYAN MADSON: I would invite all of the members of Congress to join me in an improvisation retreat. We would spend the time practicing saying “yes” to each other and really listening to one another’s offers. STEPHEN HANNOCK: Immediately after August break, every member of the House and Senate would be required to move for two weeks, with family, to a town or small city in a country outside North America. (Those serving more than one term may only visit an English speaking country once and not on the first trip.) JAMES DYSON: The United States still spends more than any other nation on research and development. But others are moving up, not least China. America needs to inspire a new generation of risk takers. And it starts in school. NEIL deGRASSE TYSON: When you’re scientifically literate, the world looks different. Science provides a particular way of questioning what you see and hear. When empowered by this state of mind, objective realities matter. These are the truths on which good governance should be based and which exist outside of particular belief systems.

Students: Tell us what you think of these ideas. Which are most helpful? What would you do differently if you were president? How would you try to solve the problems facing the United States?

If I were President, I wouldn’t even know where to begin on boosting our economy. But the main problem is job availability so I guess I should start with that. Many US citizens are out of work or getting their hours cut back because they cannot be afforded. Well here’s what I’ll do: I would create and environmentally friendly power plant that would offer 150 jobs in every state.

I thank the ideas are graet and I also thank that the most hellpful is for fixing up the schools and hellpin kids in need. I know if i was president i would help the kids in need. I would also try to help you out by lisining and understanding your problems.

If i was presisdent i would lower gas prices. Then i would try to stop all the violence.I would try to help all the sick children and poor people make the world a better place.

I would try to make the gas prices less than what they are now because some of the adult that have children need to get to work everyday. Also i would invest to make more schools, playgrounds, daycares, and alot of other stuff too. The one thing i would do is meat with other countrys that is having a hard time with their life and i would try to help them in any way i can.

I would lower gas prices so everyone could afford it. I also would try and make the economy better. i would try to house every homless person on the streets in the united states.

if i were president i would change alot of things around , such as school hours . School hours are really long now days . Yes , students should get all the education they can get but at the same time they should be able to take a break . That’s just one example of what i would do if i was president , there is so much more .

Not worry about re-election and focus on core problems. Pass laws creating non partisan redistricting commitees to make elctions competitive and get congressmen willing to work in congress. Then focus on the problem the president is actually able to deal with. In a word entitlements. The president is responsible for the government so get it in order. One way or another take responsibility and fix the budget. Otherwise key programs of the government will go bankrupt within the decade. Once we have money to use then you have the ability to fix then other problems.

If I were president, first off I would change the yearly wages that Congress gets by decreasing them, and putting them aside for the schools. So that kids like me can learn more and be able to have a good art program. I would also, take away the border patrol and make it so that would be where the military trains. So, that way the trainees can have many hands on experiences and we can save some money. I would also start a fund with the other part of Congress’ wages and make it a back up fund for our country. I would then, slowly start jobs up again, and go in on a deal with Hanes or something and start a production line here in the US and then after that picks up I would continue to increase the amount of jobs available. Those are a few things I would do if I were president.

I believe that all of the above comments are good ideas, each proving a wonderful point. The presedential office a difficult position that, when one isn’t in, it is hard to see what being president is like. The President must make difficult discions that affect more than him/her or his/her family. The pressure to be president would make the job difficult, and though a person may have many great ideas, they may not follow through. If I were President, I would stop lending money to other countries. We have our own debt to worry about, we don’t need theirs. I would also figure a way to make more homeless shelters for those in need. I would try to form a plan to get the soldiers out of war slowly to keep from a revolt against the United States. I would try to lower gas prices, but if i couldn’t i would explain to the citizens why i couldn’t. I would lower taxes for the poor and raise them for the rich, and finally i would take away the budget cuts of the schools and find the money from another source

If i were president, i would cut wasteful spending(that means decreasing the members of congresses salary) and put more emphasis on the importance of education. I’d also wouldnt worry with giving money to other countries we have our own debt to worry with. Tax the rich and make the US a more enviromentally friendly nation, and planting more trees to help clean the air that we so desperately need.

If I was president I do what ever I want to and tell those thats backing me to step aside. I would create more jobs find away to fund higher education less and let students work part time over the summer and pay for their own education. I have free training and bring back workshops in high schools so if students want to start a business after they graduate high school and skip college at least they can make money and then go on to college if they please. Find away to not destroy the earth build less buildings and fix up the old ones. Find ways to fix up other living areas without digging into the earth but make it sleepable. Stop building jails and build ways to keep people from going to jail. Find a way to bring peace love joy and freedom. I will make a way to reform jury duty make it a volunteer choice.

If I were president I would first make more jobs available. Many people don’t have jobs and they need to support their family. If I set up jobs to help the earth such as planting more plants. This would provide jobs and help create clean air. Another thing I would like to change are the school hours. School days are long, tiring and take a lot of focus. If they were shorter students would have more energy. Also everyday I walk past homeless people. This saddens me. I would want to make homeless shelters open to help all the homeless, sick or not. I would fix the monetary system, the way Andrew Jackson did. I would stop all of the wars, and use the resources to help all of the people lead happy, constructive lives.

If I were elected president of the United states of America I would do my personal best with all my power as president to try to end this war that has plauged the U.S military and their families for many years. Since I myself am in a military family I feel that the sooner we end this war and bring our soldiers home the better of our country would be. The situation in Lybia right now has more of an impact than others might tell you. Since a majority of oil is made in the Middle East and sent by boat leaving first the Red Sea, going around the continent Africa and arriving to other countries and the U.S, well think for a second. Where is Lybia located in relation to the Red Sea? Right next to it. So with the amount of oil that actually leaves Lybia so little the price goes up, and we really aren’t in any position to pay the fines and prices for oil with as bad as the economy is. Those are a couple of the many issues I would cover during my term as President of the Untied States.

If I were president, I would first off listen to THE PEOPLE. Having health care would be an option and those who make more money than others would not need to pay higher taxes for the ones who don’t. I believe the ones who make more money put much effort in what they do and should use the money for their own purposes. Also, I wouldn’t keep raising taxes, instead I would decrese them. Decreasing taxes would give the citizens the relief to spend more of their money which would give businesses a great boost! Instead of the businesses downsizing they would hire more people and more people with jobs would mean more taxes being paid and, bigger amounts of taxes being paid from the businesses. I also, would not visit countries and apologize for what the Americans have done to make peace. We are a strong nation and will do what we need to, to keep us high up with other countries looking up to us and NOT down.

if i were president i make there be better health care and more jobs and better environments for the kids in the projects so they wont be killers or on drugs,and assure animal health care and find them better homes so they wont be abused as well as children

if i was the president i would change alot of things and that you wouldn’t have to be in school for so long an that you wouldnt have to go to school.

I would make a law saying there be less homework and less time in school and more time playing outside.

Legalize gay marriage and keep taxes at a fair level for all citizens.

make everythang free

:)

If I was president, I would first try to turn economic power from corporations and the financial sector to actually go towards the public sector and people who need it. I would design a healthcare system that is based on people staying healthy, not getting ill. I would also try to clean up our environment by investing in alternative fuels that are beneficial and don’t release toxins or pollutants. Finally I would make it so that only a small portion of the federal budget is put towards military power, it should go towards helping countries get back on their feet, investing in educational causes and good health care as well as using diplomacy as a way to convey our opinions. not military might.

If I was the president I would help a poor people,orphan,adult,sick people,people don’t have a work.i was building more schools,transit,play grounds,parks,community centers,healt clinics,libraries,national service…… I helping school ,kids,and sick people that need to help.I would try to help the people in our county by listen about their problems.

if you can change or make a law , what would it be, why?

Listen to the people represented, take responsibility, be a guiding leader, be willing and able to do what is ask of others, always ask and answer, “what have we (Congress) done for our country today?”, sacrifice internally before asking or expecting the people to, respect every voice, communicate fully and transparently (respecting national security and privacy), get the people involved, motivated, and inspired with bettering their country, and make sure to thank all of those who make this country a great place to live!

I will kill ppl and be a ninjaaaaa!!!!!

If I Were President

Student model print.

Austin, the second-grade writer of this expository paragraph, introduces his subject—how to be a good president—in an interesting way.

If I were president, I’d be responsible. I’d look alert and run the United States like it should be run. I’d be honest. Then the people would trust me. I would be a good president because I have faith in the people of the United States.

If I were a President Essay for Children (999 Words)

June 6, 2018 by Study Mentor Leave a Comment

These days when you start talking about the problems we are facing in our day to day lives, one thing leads to another and that leads to another and so on. But the thing is, it’s not only us whose suffering from these daily issues it’s the whole nation.

Everyone hopes for a better nation, a better environment, a better place to live, etc. everyone has high hopes for its country, you sit in between a group of people and they themselves will point out the things that they are hoping for to improve in our country within a minutes.   

Now let’s talk about the president of a country. Hmm president. Who is a president? A president is the one who is the head of government. He/she is the symbol of all the people. It’s a huge post to be on. Plus a lot of responsibilities though, piles of pressure too.

A president is the one who is representing all, he or she has to think wisely and make decisions in such a way that would lead to a brighter future of our Nation.  

Everyone thinks of bringing change towards their country. But what if I were a President? Woah! That did be so cool! Hmm. This topic is gonna take a while matey.  

According to me, the basic improvement that I would work upon be

  • Gender Inequality  
  • Pollution  
  • Reservation system  
  • Crime free  
  • Agriculture department  

Let me go brief in this topic,  

Table of Contents

Gender Inequality   

So what is gender inequality? Gender inequality defines that men and women are not equal. Isn’t it discrimination? We are living in the 21 st  century, everyone calls himself or herself as modern and knowledgeable, but let me tell you that is all bullshit, shame on such modernization that you are living in the 21 st  century and still don’t treat women equally.

Like is it a joke? People have been killing the girl child in the womb itself. Don’t you know how you came into this world? Through your mother, a lady you idiot. Not a bird flew and throw you at your home! That is just in the comic stories.   

And even if the girl child is born then what? People start treating her as a burden. And a time comes when people marry them with someone who himself is studying. Why is a girl burden to you? Cause of dowry? You stop believing in dowry system, if someone scares you of the fact that a girl means dowry then through a book of constitution on hat person.  

There are some people in our country who respect women so much, that every time a girl is been born, the whole village grows 101 trees. I am seriously proud of such people. There should be more people like that.   

I would seriously work on gender inequality and bring awareness to each and every person to respect a girl, cause she will be someone’s mother, someone’s wife, someone’s daughter, someone’s sister, someone’s friend, someone’s girlfriend. And if you can’t do that, then get ready to live in a nation where you yourself would be turn into gay.  

Our nation depends on the environment we live in. And our environment depends on how we maintain it. Are we really working hard for to have a nice environment? I don’t think so. Air pollution, Water pollution, Land pollution, Noise pollution, etc. what are the reasons behind them? Ever thought of that.

Simple it’s us. It’s us all. We are the reason behind it. Everyone is running so fast in their lives that they won’t think once of what are we saving for the upcoming lives. Being a president, I would work on pollution its causes and prevention of it. I would let no stone left unturn.   

Reservation system

Reservation system is seats specially equipped for the backward people as an opportunity to rise. But don’t you thing that these days it is not fair for the other students. Trolls and memes are being made that why weren’t we born as SC or ST…. so do you think it’s fair for everyone. No! Right?

Being a president, I would definitely remove the reservation system and for those who are from the backward societies and need help in education or so, will bring few schemes for them, like if they scored above 80% than they can get a scholarship, by this the people who are actually willing and potential to work will get the jobs in the near future.  

I want to make a crime free nation, not a single day passes when we do not hear or read about 4-5 cases happened per day, the crime ratio is more wider than the hairs on a woman’s head.  

To make a crime free nation, I would work on it by making a special secret team in each state who would grab the culprits. Being a president, I will work on a crime free environment in our nation. Everyone wants safeness, obviously people would be expecting a lot from the government so it’s me who should bring out the change.  

Agriculture Department

As a president, it’s my responsibility to look after the agriculture department. Are the farmers really getting what they deserve? Do you know that they are the ones who produce the food we eat, they are like Gods and Goddesses but are we treating them well? I don’t think so. Being a president, I would get them full rights, bring out few schemes through which they can live a better life and get what they deserve.  

At the end I would just like to say that if you are not a president, at least you are a human, you can bring a change, because change starts from the one and goes till infinity. So don’t just sit back in front of the TV and point out that the government should do this for the betterment.

If I Were President?

The first thing I would do as President of India is educate the masses. India’s biggest problem is its bludgeoning population. Poverty, crime, corruption all stem from this one problem. Land is finite and unless India takes a step to curb its population which seems to grow at the rate of infinity, we will go back to being a poor nation.

The next thing I would do as President is make all children study at military run schools. The child’s mind is like clay and if at an early age a child is taught discipline then the sky is the limit for what this child can achieve. We would have a whole generation of people who respect each other, women and their country. It would also mean a whole generation of youth who take pride in their nation. The military teaches you to love your brothers and to stand up for them and to cover their backs. The military teaches you the meaning of the word family.

The next thing I would do as President would be to end corruption. Money is the root cause of all problems and when it goes in to the wrong hands, only wrong things are done with it.

If I could do only these three things I would have achieved a lot – an educated nation, a disciplined nation, and an honest nation.

Essay On If I Were the President of India

  • Post category: Essay
  • Reading time: 4 mins read

The President’s position is a position of responsibility. The man who becomes the President of India is supposed to be commanding the love and loyalty of all. He is expected to be above party politics. Though his position is the highest one, yet he is to take himself as the first and foremost servant of the people. His life is not simply a bed of roses in which he may be comfortable and do nothing. Indeed, if I become the President of India, I would actively serve the people, go in their midst and live as one of them. Considerations of dignity and position should not come in the way of service.

I would do my best to exercise my personal influence on my government as well as the public to serve the country and to make it progressive. I would see to it that my government implements the welfare schemes and becomes a Welfare State.

I would fill the people e with new life and enthusiasm. I would try to represent the spirit and culture of India by my personal way of living and working. It would be my first effort to be a model in service: Service, I would regard as the best and the only ornament of the President. I am fully aware that the President has manifold duties and I can only wish and pray that I shall prove worthy of performing them all properly.

People say ‘uneasy lies the head that wears the crown’. No doubt, it is true, Nevertheless, I wonder if there is any possibility of uneasiness if one performs one’s duties sincerely and honestly. On the other hand, there is spiritual satisfaction in the fact that one did one’s work as one could and left the world better than one found it at one’s birth. If I become the President of India, I would certainly and resolutely tread along the thorny path of my duty confidently, my motto shall be Service is its own reward.
