It's a Goode Day to be an American

I know, I know. Choosing who to vote for is a hard decision and before you came across this persuasive essay, you had no idea what you were going to do tomorrow. But have no fear, now you know! I will help you. I know you may have never heard of him, but Virgil Goode, of the Constitution Party, is the obvious choice for president of the United States of America. Yes, he had good plans to repair our sad country. Though more importantly, he has Southern Hospitality and is a family man. He works with what he has and is very resourceful. With that, he will reduce the debt, unemployment and immigration issues.
First of all, let’s discuss reducing the debt. Goode, being the innovator of ideas he is, plans to create a ‘balanced budget’ to our way out of debt. What a great idea on his part. This is just so original and refreshing to all the Americans looking for hope like me. As Goode says, “There will be pain, but the old saying that one will not get out of the hole by digging the hole deeper is accurate”. These are true, true words of the wise. 
Immigration is the next topic I will be discussing with you today. Goode says it best when he says, “Illegal immigration must stop”. I had never though of it from this perspective. Wouldn’t it be so ideal if there were no more illegal immigrants? It is such a simple idea, yet it would solve so many problems. This could help the unemployment rate go down, allowing the legal citizens to get and keep jobs. Goode plans to heavily patrol the Southern boarders. He doesn't even want to allow many legal immigrants to move here. Goode also doesn’t plan to allow the babies born in the United States that are the offspring of illegal immigrants to be legal citizens here. They will just have to find hope elsewhere. 
The final point I want to share with you, is the unemployment rate is up to 8.5% and that is not okay with Goode. We all know an uncle, a cousin, a father, a grandparent, or even ourselves that have been unemployed at some point. It is a very scary thing to experience and it just doesn’t seem fair. But do not worry, Goode has a unique plan to reduce that to 5% or less. His immigration ideas will play into this plan perfectly. If the immigrants aren’t taking our jobs, there will be more for us. Imagine all the opportunities that the legal citizens will then have. With Goode in office, the citizens of America will finally get the dream jobs, like cleaning ladies and construction workers, that have not been available because of that problem. 
I hope that I have helped you see why Goode is the best option there is for president of the United States of America. He is like no other candidate. His plans to decrease the rate of unemployment, immigration, and reduce the national debt are obvious factors. The way he will go about these are what really sells me; in his gentlemanly southern way. His ideas and ways are as American as fried chicken. That is what all Americans should want for our country. Tradition.

  1. First of all, clever, clever, title! You did a great job at listing ideas, or reasons why you believe Goode would be the best president. However, the result you had from the quiz, stating that Romney was the highest, left me a little bewildered. Also in the first paragraph you use the word "had" ideas, instead of "has ideas, which makes me feel like he's already lost, or he's out of ideas. Which both, reflect negatively on Goode as a candidate. However, other than that, it looks as if you did a good amount of research, and you did a good job.

  2. You have adressed issues that you agree with and don't agree with within Goode's campaign. Your research has shown to be adequate for the small amount of information that there is out there on Virgil Goode. Your word choice in smooth throughout and your facts are fairly well placed. There are some facts that have no supporting points but they are few and far between. The essay is well polished and is grammatically correct. There is little mention on other candidates leaving minimal attack to the current institution. For as little information there is about the constitutional party and Virgil Goode you did a relatively good job. Everything was fluent and well spoken. Great Job!
