William McKinley: Next American Hero
William McKinley is running for President of the United States of America this year. He is concentrating heavily on protective tariffs and the gold standard.
Protective tariffs would mean the taxation on imported and/or exported goods. Taxation upon foreign goods would put a heavier stress on buying domestic goods which would ultimately help the people. More domestic buying means higher employment rates.
McKinley was quoted saying, “I am a tariff man, standing on a tariff platform.”
Criticism has been flying at McKinley who has been avoiding being labeled as a "monometallist" for concentrating on passing The Gold Standard Act.
McKinley was awarded "The Loving Cup" which has an inscription of the words "In Silver we Believe, When Redeemable in Gold..." by silversmiths who believe in the metallic money McKinley stands for."
McKinley has our best interest at heart. He will protect America and do what he determines is best for us. We are in struggling times, and with both candidates stressing heavily on the advantages and disadvantages of having tariffs and converting our money. Many are confused about who to give their vote to.
The president in running also has plans to annex Hawaii, he said “We need Hawaii just as much and a good deal more than we did California. It is Manifest Destiny.”
Annexing Hawaii would make it a permanent part of the United States of America, it would also allow us to set up a naval base there, since it is a body of land completely surrounded by water. Along with annexing Hawaii, McKinley has annexed Puerto Rico, Guam and the former Spanish territory the Philippines.
The working class makes up a large portion of America, and William McKinley recognizes that. He believes in the working class hero and that they are the roots of our country.
Modesty is a good quality of a president, and when it has to do with William McKinley, nothing rings truer. He is a humble man with great plans for our country. He has nothing but the best in his mind to help you and our great nation.
“I have never been in doubt since I was old enough to think intelligently that I would someday be made president.” Said McKinley.
Another great aspect of McKinley’s campaign is that he is focusing heavily on cultural pluralism. Cultural Pluralism is when everyone individually chooses their own identity and religion to form a unique nation.
If we all choose our own identity, we wouldn’t have to worry about conforming everyone to one belief. McKinley is about the people. He cares about you personally and has shown it in his platform. You lead your own life, and you have your own individual rights.
Not only is cultural pluralism about religion, it’s about how you live your life, the food you eat, the music you listen to and the way you live. Voting for McKinley ensures the whole nation will get to live their life the way they want to. Everyone is accepted no matter their religion, their heritage, or anything of the sort.
The Front Porch Campaign has had a significant effect on the minds of voters everywhere. McKinley has made dozens of speeches in and around his hometown because that is the area he knows best. He can concentrate on areas based upon his experiences at home.
As far as credibility goes, McKinley is an American Civil War Veteran, so you can bet that he has experience with fast thinking and quick decisions. He is 54 years of age and has all the wisdom he could have possibly attained. He is not only prepared for the job, but he has experience dealing with political issues. He was the 39th Governor of Ohio for 4 years and in that time, gained the experience necessary to become the 25th President of the United States.
William McKinley is the breathe of fresh air that we need. He is immediate relief for our country and we are guaranteed that he will run in office to the best of his ability.
