TOPIC: Do we need to admire the famous people to succeed?
As a result of the enthusiastic admiration for President John Kennedy, Bill Clinton eventually became the 42nd President of the United States, the third-youngest president. Clinton, born in Hope, Arkansas, suffered considerable frustrations in his childhood such as his father’s death and his stepfather’s identity as a gambler and an alcoholic. Bill Clinton’s situation, however, began to change by virtue of his visit to President John Kennedy, in which he was captivated by Kennedy’s charisma and determined to achieve Americans’ dreams as a prominent president. Therefore, it was under the directions of the fervid reverence that Clinton dedicated himself to his schoolwork and obtained Bachelor of Science in Foreign Service in Georgetown University and Jurisdiction Doctor in Yale Law School respectively. In addition, according to the route map set by Clinton in his adolescence, he endeavored and managed to win the election of Governor of Arkansas at the incredibly young age of 32 so that he would be likely to possess the competence for the president. Resulting from his excellent work as a governor, Bill Clinton was voted as the 42nd President successfully and played the key role in the revival of national economy. As you can see, without the fervent admiration for Kennedy, Clinton would not have become one of the most preeminent presidents in American history.

Nevertheless, his ambitious aspiration to surpass Julius Caesar motivated him to ignore the noise and concentrate exclusively on his study. Consequently, he was adept at the application in mathematics and the acquaintance about history and geography, which had profound impacts on his subsequent wars. Later, based on his unsurpassed knowledge accumulation and abilities, Napoleon Bonaparte was appointed as the military and political leader of France. It was until then that Napoleon Bonaparte was able to conquer the whole Europe continent as his wishes like Caesar. Simultaneously, his actions shaped European politics in the early 19th century. Were it not for his respect for Julius Caesar, Napoleon Bonaparte would not have been the unprecedented ruler in Europe.
