Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton Do Not Deserve to be President

Donald J. Trump and Hillary Clinton are clearly unfit to be the next President, and it is saddening to say the least

This presidential race makes me sick. It is absolutely disgusting. I am unable to escape the media lunacy that is the 2016 presidential election.

In one corner we have the criminal and crooked Hillary Clinton. She may seem politically apt to assume the office of the President, but, I would not trust her with being my class president, let alone the President of the United States of America.

In corner number two we have the heinous, terrible Donald J. Trump. This man is a sorry excuse for a person that cannot and will not stop running his mouth, spitting insults, and spouting lies long enough to have anyone take him seriously. These two sorry excuses for presidential candidates have led me to make one very bold claim: Neither of them deserve to be the next President of the United States of America.

The media has come an extremely long way in the last five years. The advent of social media outlets such as Twitter, Vine, and mobile media apps have forever changed the way political elections are held. This year, every single thought that Mr. Trump and Mrs. Clinton have had for the past 12 months has been put out onto the internet for the whole world to see. Each thought is instantly scrutinized and debated to no end, inevitably ending in the people of the internet insulting one another simply for agreeing with something.

Some of Trump’s greatest hits include snippets about Mexico building a wall on the border and countless insults against women, minorities, and many other groups. As for Mrs. Clinton, her campaign has been an endless battle against her email scam, and her many lies in her past, including the Benghazi and her trouble when President Bill Clinton was in office.

After hearing ceaseless barrages against both candidates, as well as support for each, I am unable to put my faith in either Donald Trump or Hillary Clinton.

The President of the United States needs to be someone that people can trust, not someone that lies about war conflicts and has had government emails stolen due to negligence. The President of the United States should also be someone that is tolerant and understanding, not someone who brazenly insults may different groups while not caring whether their “facts” are right or wrong. The President of the United States should be someone that is honest, yet tough; someone that is ready to face adversity, and not lie their way out of it. The job of President of the United States does not belong to either Donald Trump or Hillary Clinton, and I wish more people in our great country saw that. Instead of choosing the "lesser of two evils," citizens need to pick a proper candidate for the Presidency of the United States of America.

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.

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.
