Mans wealth and how it relates to political rights

The story that I am going to be telling for my ace day Pecha Kucha is going to be the story of why a man’s wealth was so important for possessing political rights. I think that this will be the best story for me to do for my presentation for a few reasons. It is important for why certain political leaders were political leaders, and if it was for their knowledge, or because of their wealth. The emotional impact that I am trying to leave the audience with is that we should not base our political decisions off just how much money someone has, but we should base it off their knowledge and their decision making. I think there is a lesson to be learned here, and it is exactly that. We should base who we vote for not based off their income or their net worth, but we should base it off their knowledge and how good they would be as a leader. I think that I will be able to successfully relate the primary source to my own life because I feel as if in my own life, I tend to lean towards and be around people who are wealthier, but don’t have my best interest at heart.
