    Despite HRC shortcomings and downfalls, during the most important campaign run of her life, she is forced to go up against a white man that is racist, misogynistic, a bigot, privileged to infinity, sexist, a prude and more. She is on a platform where her opponent can do all of these things blatantly, and his supporters still does not bat an eye. She still has to fight and fight HARD, because she is a woman. Why is this race still "so close"? I hear people at my job talk about women not being in the top positions here, but in the same line say they don't want HRC as the president because of how other nations may not respect women (but want men and women to have equal pay and same opportunities).…

    Beginning with the death of Trayvon Martin in early 2012, the United States has started to acknowledge the way police mistreat citizens, particularly black people. With this “new”, rising topic, which the nation previously turned a blind eye to, people have also started to look at other issues that have disproportionately affected black Americans, such as mass incarceration. Mass incarceration is usually defined as the sharp increase of imprisoned individuals in the last forty years (200,000 in 1972 to 2.2 mil in 2010?). Although the government itself rarely addresses these problems, others have made it their mission to combat these injustices through social media, television, and speeches. Among those who have spoken out against the political mistreatment of black Americans is former First Lady Hillary Clinton.…
