    The Vice Presidential debate that occurred on October 4th 2016 was important to people across the united states.

I was hoping this debate would be better than the presidential debate however it seemed to be the same; Tim Kaine interrupting and Mike Pence constantly being on the defense.

    with its use of strong shafts of light and backlighting, immediately evokes images from classic black-and-white movies, and it is not accident that it does.

    seem but it is certainly not good for the United States. Some of the undocumented immigrants that just walk straight across the Texas-Mexico border avoid paying taxes, and although they take the jobs that no one wants to do they still stop legal US citizens from getting them, and there is a large amount of them already here and it just keeps on growing.
