If The Presidential Candidates Had Favorite Emojis

'Tis the season—campaign season, that is. 2015 may have been a big year for the 2016 presidency candidates, but it's also been a big year for emojis everywhere. New updates brought us a taco, champagne bottle, and even the long-awaited middle finger.

We're still months away from official nominations, and there are still a lot of people to keep track of. Much like the senior superlative list, what we all need is a good-spirited, not-to-be-taken-seriously list of the presidential candidates and their favorite emojis to help us remember who's who.

Ben Carson


Ben Carson's favorite emoji would likely be the hand raised in defiance. Why? Because he's intolerant, of course!

Bernie Sanders

Senator Sanders' favorite emoji would be the balding old white guy for obvious reasons.

Carly Fiorina

The computer—obviously—because all she ever talks about was the time she was the CEO of HP.

Chris Christie

The football—he wants everyone he texts to know that he's always down to fly to Cowboys games and spend $82,000 in taxpayer dollars on concessions!

Donald Trump

Mr. Trump probably doesn't use emojis anymore after the update that allowed you to make the skin color anything but white. But if he did, it would probably be the hammer, because he's all about building a wall.

Hillary Clinton

The snail mail mailbox because she's never using email again.

Jeb Bush

The two boys holding hands so that no one ever forgets his brother George Bush was president.

Marco Rubio

Marco Rubio's favorite? The hatching chick because it's kind of cute and a little bit confrontational, just like he is.

Martin O'Malley


The SOS sign because he's barely hanging on.

Rand Paul

Probably the gun since he love love loves the second amendment!

Ted Cruz

Definitely the tea cup because tea party, duh.

Hopefully, one of these candidates can bring our great nation as much joy as the taco emoji did.

AI music threatens creativity

The Soul of Sound: How AI Challenges Human Expression in Music

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

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.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

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.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

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.
