For as long as America can remember we've only had male presidents. However, things had a really good chance of changing when Hilary Clinton ran for president in 2016. Women have become a lot of things over the years, but never, not once, have they become the President of the United States. For so many simple reasons, this needs to change.

1. Women CAN do things as good as a man does.

There are still some people in this world who think that women can't do anything as good as a man can. That is exactly what women have been trying to prove wrong for years since they entered the workforce. But a female president of the country is several steps higher than those jobs!

2. This would be an inspirational historical event to girls for years to come.

All the women and girls in the current world only remember men as presidents. Having a woman president is the proof they need that women can not only do anything as good as a man but also that they can do whatever they put their mind to.

3. Imagine the other changes this would bring.

If a woman became president, chances are she would pay closer attention to things like the glass ceiling, and gender inequality (basically like what Hilary Clinton promised).

4. They already did a good job as First Ladies.

They have been working in the shadows of their husbands, the presidents, for years. What makes you think they couldn't take it up a notch?

5. If a queen could rule, why not a female president?

Alright, so everything Queen Elizabeth does has to go through the Prime Minister first but still, this is not much different!

So, all things considered (especially considering how far women's rights have come over the last several years), why not?

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
