Bernie Sanders

We had been waiting in a line that stretched around an entire city block. Two hours and one security pat down later, we made our way the arena - where we heard yelling from the outside. Perched from atop the second level seats, surrounded by 13,000 other people, he appeared to be a stubby, red-faced troll – almost as if someone had replaced the head on a manikin with an orange beach ball, and adorned it with a mop head. His name was Donald John Trump, or, as some, I soon discovered, prefer to…

In American you can protest, and organize a sit-in. You can kneel during the Pledge of Allegiance, and March on Washington. You as someone living in America can do all of these things and as long as you're peaceful and non-violent you will not be prosecuted because of a principle called civil disobedience. This simple but extremely impactful principle is something that the people of the United States value, and something we probably should value more. Civil disobedience is the reason that we…

The key to a successful country is its ability to continually progress forward. Yet the United States always seems to be behind other countries. For instance, women in the United States received the right to vote in 1920 but women in New Zealand started voting in 1893. Denmark was the first country to legalize same sex unions in 1989 but it wasn’t until 2015 that the United States legalized same sex marriage.

In today’s society, we have American politicians such as Bernie Sanders and Hillary Rodham Clinton that are stepping up and using their voice to speak out against the break in class structures. We have big banks on Wall Street, who can be viewed as being similar the overpowering elite level of the eighth century in…

community in the US primarily stems from radical right-wingers. First, let start by letting people know that the rights of LGBT people are in great danger in part of this presidential election. Of course, we have common sense democrats such as Bernie Sanders and Hillary Clinton who actually respect the rights of consenting adults. But unfortunately on the opposite end of the political spectrum, things aren't looking as colourful. Many of the 2016 GOP presidential candidates, including Donald…

European project to come". Both Merkel and Schultz are running on, what in the United States would be considered, a far-left platform.
