11 Reasons Why Michael Scott And Dwight Schrute Should Be Presidential Running Mates

Election years always prove to be interesting. Blue states and red states. Liberals and conservatives. Debates here and debates there. Controversy after controversy. With Super Tuesday arriving, things are becoming especially heated. Everyone is advocating for their favorite candidate and you pretty much try to avoid Facebook at all costs. Presidential races can be overwhelming when no one seems to agree. Speculations are circling as to who each candidate would select as their running mate. But, I know there is one dynamic duo we would all like to see run for president.

1. They answer the hard-hitting questions.

These are the things America needs to know.

2. They're hip, making them relatable to young voters.


Through Grammy-worthy musical productions, Michael and Dwight can draw young voters out to the polls.

3. The sky is their limit.

They're ambitious.

4. They're both Olympic medalists.


OK, OK...they're "Office Olympics" medalists. Close enough right?

5. They're up front with their past.


Sometimes he'll sing in the shower or spend too much time volunteering.

6. They have state-of-the-art military tactics they plan to implement.


Dwight is the first to let you know he has a black belt in karate (and he knows how to use it).

7. They can communicate without using words.


Communication is key, and these two know exactly how to do that. Using words, or not.

8. They recover from opposition well.

They're rubber and you're glue. Whatever you say bounces off them and back to you.

9. They have a clear stance on economic issues.


Like the Notorious B.I.G., Michael and Dwight prescribe to the philosophy of "mo' money, mo' problems."

10. And healthcare.


There is no healthcare in the wild.

11. They think about the consequences of their actions.


It's simple, really.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
