Watching the Presidential debate last week, I could not help but be absolutely lost. Hearing the arguments between Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump actually had me concerned. Not because I still have no idea who I am voting for but because I have no idea how we as a nation have gotten to the point of choosing our future President from these two vastly different people.
Don't get me wrong it is really entertaining to watch Secretary Clinton and Mr. Trump fight it out; I was kind of waiting for one of them to just put the other one in a chokehold or something. But is that what we have come to as a nation? Because to be honest, even after researching the candidates' stances on issues and listening to speeches and all that good stuff that we all do, because we are all good informed voters; listening to them argue like a couple of five-year-old kids made me question if either of them is ready for the job. Every week one or both of the candidates opens their mouths or something from their past comes up that really makes me question not only their capability of running the country, but how they sleep at night.
As a college student and a young millennial, I understand that my age group is very important to the victory of either candidate. I know that voting is something to take very seriously and that it is important to let my voice be heard through this process. I just don't know where that voice is yet. Is that wrong? I know a lot of people have strong opinions about who they are voting for and that is so great. The fact that you have made up your mind about who you believe will run our nation the best is amazing, and I wish I were in your shoes. But as for me, I am undecided and will probably be undecided until I actually walk into the voting booth. I know that with less than a month to go until Election Day I do not have that much longer to choose. And as I finish writing this article please let me ask my wonderful friends who will read this, let me finish figuring this out on my own. I love each and every one of you dearly, but I don't need to be bombarded by anyone to find my way.
