Standing at five feet, six inches in the far left (but steadily creeping more and more to the center), the Windy City native, one-time First Lady, and long-time human rights activist: the Big H Clint-Win! That’s right. In case you haven’t quite caught on, we’re talking Hillary Clinton, the probable candidate for the Democratic Party in the 2016 presidential election. Many people will argue with their computer screens that they would rather feel the Bern, however, for the sake of argument and my precious word count, let’s all assume Hillary is as good as it gets for the blue. Now that that debacle is out of the way, you may be saying to yourself:
“Hey, isn’t this the girl that made me throw my laptop across the room with her totally compelling arguments about why I should vote for Trump?”
Why yes, that is me. However, you don’t care about what I personally think (and if you do, feel free to message me and we’ll have a chat)! This is for you, the American people, to have just a little more information about who has the potential to run our Great Nation.
Read on with that newly opened mind of yours and let’s see what we find together.
So what is it that makes Hillary Clinton the best candidate (laugh at my pun) for president of the United States? Allow me to sway you with my three-point method.
1. She’s broad.
No, she’s not a broad, we’re talking about her broad strokes on a political canvas. Here’s the thing, when you first look at Hillary Clinton’s Platform, it may be a little overwhelming. This woman has over twenty-five things she wants to work on, should she be elected. While this may seem like overkill to you, to me it’s overlive! Clinton is showing that her concerns are expansive, diverse and that she isn’t afraid to tackle both the important topics on the table of conversation, but also some issues that aren’t getting as much attention as they should. Will she be spread thin? You betcha; thinner than half a knife of peanut butter on dry bread. But if she can make it happen, she might be onto something.
If you don’t find at least one thing you agree with her on when you look at her platform, you’re lying.

2. She’s talking about both sides.
No, not both sides of her email accounts which we simply cannot seem to let die, but she’s looking to you, both the red and the blue! Hillary is talking about more gun control and small, centralized businesses. Not only is she advocating for background checks and more strict guidelines to keep guns out of the hands of the wrong people, she’s also trying to hold manufacturing companies accountable for their irresponsible dealings. As for keeping small businesses small, conservatives might be pleasantly surprised to hear that she’s got a few specific tools she plans to implement when it comes to making them more successful. And hey, her views seem to change every other week, so voice your opinion enough and it will probably become hers too!
Power to the people, am I right Mrs. Clinton?

3. She’s conscious of the future
With her affordable education proposals, it seems that Hillary’s eye is on the prize (if that's what you people want, at least). This education debate is one that scares a lot of people, so bear with me here. Is Hillary proposing free education? No. Is she suggesting no one pays for school? Negatory. What she’s asserting is that college students shouldn’t be drowning in the sea of debt, like most of us are. She believes, as most Americans do, that universities should be the ones getting the slap on the wrist for their wildly overpriced education, not the taxpayers.
All in all, her plans aren't so Socialist (@Bernie); she’s just trying to help you, me, and 21 Pilots not be so “Stressed Out.”
Look at that, we made it. Whether you’re red, blue, or a little purple in the face, I think we can all agree that Mrs. Clinton shows some promise for Office. The least that we know is that she’s loyal to things that are broken and is willing to put in hard work through the most difficult of times, *cough* Bill *cough*. If I haven’t convinced you to vote for her, at least I’ve gotten to tell you a little bit about why she’s better than your average Joe, or Bernie. Ultimately, the future of America is in your hands people, nobody wants to Hold Your Hand (shout-out to the Beatles again), but perhaps those hands are a little more equipped to get out and vote this election season. All I know is, if you don’t vote, you’re not helping anyone. So call on Professor Google and get involved, because the future is knocking on your door.">
