Why I'm Shouting, 'Never Hillary'

It's not over 'til it's over

I don’t think I can actually enumerate the number of reasons I would not vote for Hillary Clinton to be the President of America, because there are so many. But here's a start:

1. Not only is she pro-choice, she does not think there should be any limitations on when a woman can get an abortion.

She thinks that women have a right to abort their children regardless of the reason. Now, she doesn’t actually advocate for late-term abortions, but she thinks that women should have complete autonomy over their pregnancy.

She also stated that babies “hours before birth” have no constitutional rights.

By that logic, if a fully developed human being can be killed inside the womb, then what’s to stop someone from killing their baby several hours after the baby has been outside the body and using the same reasons to justify it?

2. Her tax plan only helps raise more money for the government, without giving any relief for the hard-working middle class.

Even Hillary said, “The middle class pays way too much.”

But in her tax bracket that she will try to implement if she becomes president, she does not plan to do anything about it…

3. She is a hardened, conniving criminal.

She deleted 33,000 emails, many which were labeled classified, lied about deleting them, lied that they were classified, said it was an accident, and just keeps lying… Media is ignoring the information found on WikiLeaks and Clinton’s campaign has not denied any of the emails are genuine.

4. She has no respect for anyone, let alone women.

Although she stands on the premise of equality for women and staunchly supports many women’s rights issues in public, actions speak much louder than anything she says she supports. She says she supports harsher laws for sex predators, yet her own husband is one and she has tirelessly tried to cover up Bill’s gross abuse of power.

Hillary Clinton has claimed that “every survivor of sexual assault deserves to be heard, believed, and supported.”

10 victims of Bill Clinton have come forward and identified themselves, some even alleging rape.

Hillary has been recorded shaming his alleged victims, and even accused of threatening them and trying to cover up his scandals.

5. She has no respect for the armed forces.

If the gross injustice that took place in Benghazi isn’t enough to discredit Clinton, then surely her record of irreverence for military officials should.

Recently, 88 military generals have come together to defy Clinton gaining the presidency.

6. She flip flops on almost every issue; how do we know what she’ll believe when she gets in office?

Same-sex marriage, NAFTA, immigration, TPP, the Iraq War, and so much more.

She has also never admitted to changing her mind on any of these topics, I assume, believing if she says she’s been consistent enough that Americans will believe her. Even if a group of people supported her on her current policies, how do we know she won't change her mind when she rises to power?

7. She called me, and half the nation, “a basket of deplorables.”

She later apologized, saying these terms were “wrong.” But, she showed me her true heart in something that was not a quick off-hand remark, but a written speech – a calculated effort to degrade half the country.

The support I see for Hillary does not make sense to me. They say, “She is qualified.” Qualified to do what, exactly? She has failed women, created an overly-complicated and failed health plan that cost taxpayers millions of dollars, failed our armed forces and veterans, and fails the American people every time she lies to us, believing that we are too insolent to discover the truth.

Clinton has run the campaign of fighting for the interests of American people: she said she wants to impose higher taxes on the wealthy and work against big banks. Yet, many of her top donors are big banks such as JPMorgan, Citigroup, Goldman Sachs, and Bank of America. She said she wants to bring down the corrupt business practices of those on Wall Street, yet she is sponsored by Morgan Stanley, and Alphabet Inc., a multinational conglomerate.

By the way, organizations typically sponsor a candidate when that candidate protects their interests.

How can anyone support Hillary when they don't even know who she is fighting for?

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.

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.
