Michael Obama once said, “ When they go low you go high.” In this 2016 election it feels like we all are going low and just waiting to see who is going to go high and win this presidential election. This election has become weird and bizarre for the fact that candidates Hilary Clinton and Donald Trump tend to push each other buttons to confess things and call each other liars. They both have their own opinion and idea on how they will make society a better place for all of us , but both individuals have their own ways on making changes. In reality who is telling the truth? Which candidate will actually keep their word and make America great? It’s bizarre for the fact that once people hear “ Let’s make America great again” they tend to get …show more content…
You may say how this campaign is bizarre and unusual, well first of all, the Republican candidate Donald Trump who has not type of experience in the government or either in politics. The experience he has is being becoming President of his organization. Trump is an American businessman and television producer who was raised in New York and now is running to be our next president. In the other hand Democrat candidate Hilary Clinton is an American politician who served as the 67th United States Secretary of State Senator. Washington Post article named,“Is Hilary Clinton the “most experienced” presidential candidate in history?’’by Philip Bump , Bump states that Current President Obama quotes,“Look, I know how hard this job can be. That 's why I know Hillary will be so good at it,”he said."In fact, I don 't think that there 's ever been someone so qualified to hold this office.”Who knows better than our current president, Obama trust and encourages Hilary Clinton to continue on the presidential …show more content…
For instance, something that is always being brought up upon these two candidates are the release of Donald Trumps tax returns and Hilary Clintons deleted emails. Trumps refused to release his tax returns but the question is why? In the Final presidential debate Hilary states that Donald Trump is the first candidate who hasn 't released his tax reports. In Politifact article by Louis Jacobson, he states that, “ It is true that Trump 's businesses have received a lot of attention, but without the release of Trump 's tax returns.” Trump does not want to release his tax returns due to possibilities of facing criticism. On the other hand, Hilary Clinton email scandal being reopened by the FBI which is totally bizarre for the fact that it is only a few days beadier the election and it may affect her campaign. In BBC article by Anthony Zurcher he states,“ The FBI is reopening its investigation since it was first reveled in the winter of

    Election years in the United States remind many citizens that they live in a country with a political system that allows them to vote for people that will represent them and their wishes up in Washington. Many of the issues that become the target of debate can stem from dissatisfaction with the current regime, issues that have yet to have been answered, as well as whatever else is a hot topic at the time. One election season might have the turbulent geopolitical issues of the Middle East be the hot topic while the next season might have the talk shift to a domestic issue like gun control. Due to the presence of only two major political parties in America, many of the issues, candidates, and positions get diluted into binary choices that in…

    With the presidential election right around the corner politics has never been more important than they are right now. To pick between two nominees who both have flaws is very difficult, especially when you are a first time voter. I have to take into consideration the lies from one candidate and the derogatory comments made from the other. My family will try to sell the candidate they support to me, thinking it will guide me in the right direction, but only I can have a say when it comes to casting my ballot. It was important for me to pay attention to each debate so I could understand each candidate’s platform on major issues. For example, immigration was a major issue that was discussed that stood out to me. Hilary Clinton and Donald Trump…

    Two years ago the mainstream media introduced the world to a billionaire businessman, and a career politician, with vastly different leadership styles that both declared to run for America’s top role as the next U.S. President. Though these men had somewhat different campaign messages and different ideas of how they would carry them out, both had novelty approaches that had never been seen before in U.S. Politics. President, Donald Trump, and the U.S. Senator of Vermont, Bernie Sanders, both had fiery messages that spoke on the insecurities of the American people and where the future of this nation is heading in extremely different ways (Keith, 2016). With that said, I will attempt to compare and contrast…

    There is a huge contrast in between both presidential candidates mentality. The Democratic party seems to be more conservative than the Republican party in many ways. In one side, we have Mrs. Hillary Clinton. She is known to be a very presidential lady with a polite personality. This candidate feels comfortable with running America the same way we been doing it. The traditional matters are important to keep, and not many changes are needed. In the other side, we have Mr. Donald Trump. Mr. Trump is attempting to change the whole system and create a political catastrophe. This system will make America great again according to the candidate.…

    Immigration has recently become the center of the presidential debates, and every candidate is trying to offer up the best position regarding this topic. For instance, the democrats maintain a low profile on their stance because many, such as Hillary Clinton, believe immigration is be something we should allow more of. While the republicans, excluding Jeb Bush, strongly support the strengthening of our immigration laws. That being said, Donald Trump’s stance on immigration is the most popular amongst Republican Americans. This is because he promises to build a wall large enough that there would be no chance of illegal immigration. Today I would like to discuss Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton’s stance on immigration, what I personally think…

    This election cycle illustrated it for me; other cycles showed it to others. The democracy, the backbone of American politics, is not perfect. There are problems, yet Americans still champion our system and implant it in other countries. It is merely an imperfect system for an imperfect populous. In this glorified system, the one our hallowed founders created, how can someone who wins the majority of the vote not win the Presidency? How were we left with those two candidates (some of the least liked candidates in American history)? America is becoming a place where polarization is total and where political differences become defining features. Is this what those men wanted as they set out to create the laws of America for then and for now? Is this the tipping point or has the ship been taking on water, waiting for a wave to force people to jump overboard? Well either way, a wave came. The ship is flipped; people are realizing the gravity of “America’s Decision,” clamoring from the water onto the keel, attempting to right it; but they don’t have enough, they have too many Facebook posts, and not enough action. You’ll ask in your accented english, can we right this sinking incredible old ship, with 50 staterooms, and 318 million souls? I don’t know. See, some see no sinking at all, they saw sinking in 2008 and 2012, and today…

    more frequently in the most recent presidential race, the use of post-truth politics. This is “a political culture in which debate is framed largely by appeals to emotion disconnected from the details of policy and by the repeated assertion of talking points to which factual rebuttals are ignored (Post-truth Politics). So many people form emotional attachments to their arguments that they appear to be seeing through glasses with bias lenses. One example of a politician engaging in debate with a narrow point of view is when Donald Trump stated at a rally in Arizona that the newly approved government budget would decrease border security, however, the actually clause within the proposal states that more money will be available for border control (Donald Trump 's File). He had such a simplistic way of looking at information that not only does he tend to skew information but he uses what is called the Black and White logical fallacy. This is when “you presented two alternative states as the only possibilities, when in fact more possibilities exist” (Logical Fallacies). Most of what President-Elect Trump says is corrupted by this fallacy. He takes a controversial topic like immigration and says how you either pick him, who will keep your families safe or you choose Hillary who is going to let them flood the gates. He makes it seem like no middle ground can be reached, therefore, forcing people to choose from two extremes. The excessive use of this fallacy as well as other too is…

    I completely agree with everything you said, I feel everything that you do. Presidential election is all about the big promises and the bigger the better. Promises from the Presidential candidates are like bribes to pull us in, the bigger and shinier the promises are the more of us get pulled in. The sad part is neither Trump or Hillary has pulled me in, when those two talk all I hear now is blah blah blah. I don’t believe a word either one of those two says. I am a little afraid of what’s going to become of our beloved country, when either one of those two take over, we can only hope for the best. I do love what your said “if candidates weren’t allowed to give false promises how even more boring would politics be?”. You just made me laugh…
