History Essay.

Have to start essay. For an African American president would I rather have Booker T. Washington or Du Bois. Right now I am leaning towards Du Bois because he stands for the fundamentals that all citizens in America are equal. However, Washington has some good ideas about economic reforms for African Americans, and if they were followed through on, things today may be brighter. I think I will end up sticking for Du Bois though, because there should always be a difference between economic status and rights. The rich already have enough advantages, so they should not have advantage under the law, especially since America prides itself on "All Men Are Created Equal."
