Personally, I would like to meet to Miguel Hidalgo who is the man most important of the independence of Mexico for many reasons.
To begin with, Miguel Hidalgo changed the History of the Mexicans. From my own experience, when I was in elementary school, I had a very interesting History class where the teacher taught the history of Mexico. My teacher told us the Miguel Hidalgo’s life who was the man that could change our live. In the past years, all the Mexicans were slaves of Spain until this man made a great battle in order to become us independents. I think that this man was very intelligent because he made that the people fallowed his steps. I know that the people were very ignorant, but he knew how to motivate all the people for fighting against Spanish’s soldiers.
In addition, I think that this man was very important in my country because he changed some laws of my country. Consider, for example, the people who had their lands they had to pay for taxes. I mean, if one person had a lot of hectares, he could pay for each hectare. Also, people paid for their house or for their properties. Consequently, a lot of people were not satisfied whit this things. They always cracked about it. After a long time, this man could change this law, and today people don’t pay for these taxes. I think that he was very useful person even though he was not Mexican.
Finally, I think that this man was a hero for Mexicans. Although he was a priest, he could make a lot of things that transformed my country. He was a leader, his character was strong and sometimes he was passionate for helping people. According with my own experience, I’ve learned that this man was so imaginative that could change the life of a lot of people because they had done nothing. Many people started working and believing in his country. They said that in this country people had not had the opportunity for growing as employees. This demonstrates how, this man could change the live of a lot of people. I think that thus could be alleviated and people restarted their lives.
To sum up, these factors led me to believe that I would like to meet this man because he was the most important in the History of my country.

FOR MANY REASONS I would like to meet to Miguel Hidalgo(.) HE is the man most RESPONSIBLE FOR the Independence of Mexico(.)

To begin with, Miguel Hidalgo changed the history of MEXICO. From my own experience, when I was in elementary school I had a very interesting history class(.) The teacher taught the history of Mexico. OUR teacher told us ABOUT Miguel Hidalgo’s life(,) AND HOW HE was the man that could change our liveS. In the past years, all Mexicans were slaves of Spain until this man made a great battle in order to WIN us independenCE. I think that this man was very intelligent because he INCITED the people TO FOLLOW IN his steps. I know that the people were very ignorant, but he knew how to motivate all the people TO fight against SPAIN'S soldiers.
In addition, I think that this man was very important in my country because he changed some laws of my country. Consider, for example,THAT people who had LAND had to pay for taxes. I mean, if one person had a lot of hectares, he SHOULD pay for each hectare. Also, people paid for their house or for their properties. Consequently, a lot of people were not satisfied WITH this. After a long time, this man changeD this law, and today people don’t pay these taxes. I think that he was A very useful person even though he was not Mexican.

He was a leader, his character was strong and sometimes he was passionate for helping people. According with my own experience, I’ve learned that this man was so imaginative that could change the LIVES of a lot of people because they had nothing. Many people started working and believing in his country. They said that in this country people had not had the opportunity for growing as employees. This demonstrates how, this man could change the liveS of a lot of people. I think that this could be alleviated and people restarted their lives.

To sum up, these factors HAVE led me to believe that I would like to meet this man(,) because he was the most important PERSON in the history of my country.
