Improved Essays
With still over two months until election day, the 2016 Presidential Election has already proven itself to be one of the most controversial elections in United States history. The Republican candidate, Donald Trump, is thought to be highly unqualified to be president because of his lack of political history and the things he has said during his speeches. The Democratic candidate, Hillary Clinton, is highly disliked by the majority of the public because of her sketchy political history. In the first presidential debate of the year, Americans will see both good and bad things about each of the candidates.

Many people say that she is unlikeable because of the email and Benghazi scandals. During the debate, Hillary Clinton had instances where she could be deemed both likable and unlikeable during the debate. For example, Hillary Clinton was very likable compared to Donald Trump when she said, “I think Donald just criticized me for preparing for this debate. And yes I did. And you know what else I prepared for?

    According to Steinem, Clinton and other qualified female candidates could not use the same style as Obama or Bill Clinton. If they did, they would be considered too emotional.

    First Lady of the United States, United States Senator, and Secretary of State are some of the titles that have been attached to Mrs. Clinton over the years. However, after her defeat in the 2008 Democratic Party primary to political neophyte and eventual President, Barack Obama many believed that the curtain had come down on her political career.
