Who is Better, Donald Trump or Hillary Clinton?

With November being just around the corner and the elections heating up, this is the time to really look at each candidate and assess who is truly the best person for the job. The two leading this year's race are Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump. Hillary has the political experience while Trump does not. Which one you like the best is your opinion and should be based on facts on who is best qualified to lead this country for the commonality of all. Lets compare the two "stars" and hopefully at the end, we will come out more knowledgeable than before.

Hillary Clinton, on individual rights, is for keeping God as a part of our society; this will allow for people of all religious backgrounds to come together and pray in public if they so choose; She agrees with allowing women to have an abortion without restrictions and wants to make voter registration easier. She is also for same-sex marriage along with requiring women and minorities to be hired.

On Domestic Issues, Clinton disagrees with making punishment for criminals harsher as a way to keep crime at bay, disagrees with absolute right to gun ownership and disagrees that marijuana is a gateway drug. She agrees that ObamaCare should be expanded and wants to prioritize green energy.

Now let's look at Donald Trump in the same two fields. With individual rights, Trump has no opinion on requiring women and minorities to be hired, disagrees that abortion is a woman's right and isn't comfortable with same sex marriage. Trump agrees that God should be a part of our society and is on board with making voter registration easier.

Domestically, Trump wants to make punishment harder on criminals and believes in absolute right to gun ownership. He doesn't, however, want to prioritize green energy nor does he want ObamaCare to grow. He and Hillary see eye to eye when it comes with the marijuana issue.

This is only some of their platform. On the surface each one has its ups and downs but when they speak, that is when we find true knowledge. Trump has made countless raciest and sexist remarks during many of his speeches and Hillary needed a complete reboot of her campaign. They have both done things during this campaign that are not right but as humans we are known for our mistakes. Personally, I think there are better people out there who could help us run our country but that is a consistent feeling during uncertain times.

When you go out and decide who you are voting for, do it based upon who you think will do the citizens of this country and the world justice not because they are the same party as you. We need someone who will make this country thrive and free again based upon action and being true to their word. We do not need someone who bypasses questions and doesn't thoroughly explain their platform's agenda. This country needs a restructuring and we, the people of the United States are responsible for making sure it happens and confirm the right man or woman is helping us to lead the world to justice and equality for all.

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.
