偉大的總統(tǒng)

作為共和國的創(chuàng)始人，這位總統(tǒng)具備許多的優(yōu)秀品質。還在掌權之前，他就是一位慷慨的律師。他愿意無私地幫助那些向他求助的人。他免費為失業(yè)的，或沒有受過教育的人提供法律指導和意見。后來，因為相信所有人類都是生來平等，他全身心投入到廢除不平等的反黑人法律工作中。他建立了黑人青年團并被選為領袖。然而，盡管他堅持沒有暴力、沒有恐怖的和平原則，卑鄙的敵人還是炸毀了他的家、襲擊了他的親屬，他自己也無法逃脫被判30年徒刑的遭遇。

在獄中，他毫不畏懼獄警的殘酷，始終保持積極的態(tài)度，不向他們乞求憐憫。實際上，他在任何一個困境時期都充滿著希望，從未灰心。

最后，人們以領袖的職位和一塊金毯子回報了他的貢獻。
