I believe we must judge each individual as a separate person and not give them “extra benefits” because they are the first but reality tells me that society sees it differently. We bend out backwards to give breaks and ignore faults to those who are the “first” . What is most remarkable is the group that this individual belongs to could be the one to suffer the most detrimental effects from their leadership but they will continue to be this person’s biggest supporter. Maybe it’s a feeling of standing by your team when things get rough but this isn’t sports this is reality. So the next time someone runs as the first “Hispanic President”, “Jewish President”, “Woman President” or a combination of the above let’s make sure we the entire American family are the first in this individuals heart and soul instead of a group he/she belongs to.
