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.

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.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.

Top 10 Reasons My School Rocks!

Why I Chose a Small School Over a Big University.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
