What Drink Would You Share With Each Presidential Candidate?

No hard feelings, candidates. You’re all gonna need a drink after this is over anyways.

What Drink Would You Share With Each Presidential Candidate?
Inside Gov

A professor once told me that you want to choose a president that you could see yourself sitting down and sharing a beer with. I suppose it shows an excellent sense of friendship and trust to share a beer as a grown adult, but college kids will tend to drink whatever with whoever. Now that six candidates have dropped out, it’s getting down to the wire. Since all of these men and women have made it this far, each presidential candidate deserves their own drink, specifically set for them. You’re welcome, ladies and gentlemen. Bottoms up!

1. Bernie Sanders

I would take shots of something warm with Bernie because you’ve gotta “feel the Bern.” But I have to rag on him a bit: Since he looks like a bottle of Everclear, that’s what we’re drinking. We should both prepare to die.

2. Donald Trump

I’d try to drink a beer with Trump, simply because beer is good. But, as a woman, I’m not sure if he’d let me enjoy a “man’s drink.” I might have to drink a daiquiri instead. Oh well.

3. Hillary Clinton

There are enough pictures of Hillary throwin’ ‘em back, but you mostly see her drinking Presidente. I guess that’s fitting because she wants to be the “presidente” and all.

4. Jeb Bush

After almost flunking out of college, Bush spent time in Mexico. And got... married? I mean, cheers to you I guess! Here’s a shot of tequila.

5. Ben Carson

You little neurosurgeon, you. I’m sure Dr. Carson doesn’t even drink regularly. Just you wait, you will be taking shots if you become president, I promise. But, Mister “America’s Doctor,” could you handle absinthe? I’ve read that stuff can make you hallucinate. Talk about brain problems.

6. Chris Christie

Christie has never been shy about his love of food, so Pinnacle is the way to go. With all of their bizarre flavors, like every kind of cake ever made, he’s bound to love sharing a drink with me!

7. Ted Cruz

Born in Canada, eh? You can try to be a Texan, but born a Canadian, always a Canadian. We can share a maple leaf cocktail. I actually had to google Canadian drinks because, well, I’m American. But, this drink looks yummy. Go Canada!

8. Martin O’Malley

Mom? Is that you? Wow, what unfortunate letter choice. Hmm, moms always drink white wine. We can share a bottle of Charles Shaw “two-buck Chuck,” which is really three dollars now, so I’m spending big money on you, O’Malley. You’re welcome.

9. Carly Fiorina

Called the “worst CEO of her era” when she worked for Hewlett Packard, why should she deserve a drink? Despite her shortcomings, she did battle breast cancer. So you go, girl. Let’s share a martini.

10. Rand Paul

Since Paul is an ophthalmologist and a supporter of legalizing marijuana, I think he’d prefer something other than a drink if you know what I mean. He’d rather celebrate me having 20/20 with a little 4/20.

11. Lindsey Graham

Graham’s passion for religion may try to stop us from enjoying a mixed drink at a bar, but I’ll secretly chug Communion wine with you in the back pew.

12. Mike Huckabee

Since you’re currently being sued by Frankie Sullivan for playing his band’s song “Eye of the Tiger” at the Kim Davis rally, I believe that you would prefer an alcoholic drink right now. But we’re going to share an energy drink because you’re going to need some fuel for court.

13. Rick Santorum

Since Santorum is so anti-gay, I think it would be funny to trick him into meeting me at a gay bar, while I wait for the bartender to offer him a cosmo, on the house of course.

Enjoy all of the drinks and my amazing company, candidates. But, no hard feelings. All things are fair in love and war (and cocktails). You’re all gonna need a drink after this is over anyways.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Dealing with the inevitable realities of college life.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
