Here is the original article.
What world leader do you admire? Fidel Castro is a world leader that I admire for many reasons. Firstly, he led a revolution against a corrupt government ruled by an evil dictator named Fulgencio Batista. Then he went on to lead the country of Cuba by ousting their existing political system in order to instill a socialist government throughout the country. That meant out with the rich and corrupt and in with a more fair and balanced environment for his people. Although he has not always been fair nor kind in how he governed, he is like the energizer bunny, he just keeps going and going and going…! And no matter how many times we try to assassinate him, he just doesn't die. Although it is more difficult for his country to succeed due to the embargo banning trade with Cuba, he and his people have persevered and shown the USA that we can kick him and fight him all the way, but he just won't fall down.

Is it possible for a 9-year-old to make a better leader than a 14-year-old? How so, or why not?
I think it is possible for a 9-year-old to be a better leader than a 14-year-old. It depends on the environment and the experiences that each one has had.
Should kids be allowed to vote?
No, because some kids don't fully understand what is happening in the political world.
Do you have any kid role models? If so, who?
My friend who died at the age of 10 is a role model for me. Kelsey worked hard and never gave up fighting for a cure for cystic fibrosis. She raised a lot of money to fight her disease before she died.
