1.A safe country - I want very strong borders. A candidate said a couple days ago 'I want strong borders, and I want big beautiful doors on the wall, and I want thousands of people coming through the doors, legally.'...This candidate has been bashed for the way some words were used, but deep down this candidate said with total conviction please come to us, we will have open arms and we love you, just be legal. That is a great statement. I have never heard a president say with such conviction, 'I want thousands coming here.' Also, ISIS is out there and I don't want them in here, until ISIS is defeated, we can't let anyone in that even has a chance of becoming radicalized. God forbid anyone in this country is killed by an illegal or a terrorist, …show more content…
Economy - I want a candidate that will make us wealthy. The last 2 terms, we have gone down 10 trillion and if we continue in this direction we will lose power. We can't afford the current health care program and our taxes are so high that we need a spouse to afford to live nowadays. I want a smaller government so that I can do what I want with my money, I don't want it taken out of my check so that it goes places such as i.e. towards somebody that doesn't work. There is a massive contrast right now between these candidates. One wants a massive government, that will run our lives for us, the other wants smaller government and encourages us to work hard. And both sides, dems and republicans, are not backing one of the candidates because he/she wants the people to run the country and not the government. This is a threat to people in DC, not a threat to the people. So it's becoming us, the people, vs them, the government. I want us, the people to run the country, and our democracy that was built by our ancestors is being threatened. 3. Negotiations - I want a president that works for us, diligently. I want him/her to get up each morning and get their ass to work. It's a tough job and it requires amazing energy and stamina and health, physically/mentally. Negotiations with other countries must be going on constantly. Right now we are being destroyed in negotiations and we are losing thousands of jobs to other countries. I want a candidate that will bring back jobs, knows how to make a deal, knows business, and makes deals that will benefit the people and generations to
America is a land of very diverse people from all parts of the world. They all have wide varieties of interests, which are represented by both parties of its political system. The Democrats and Republicans represent two different standpoints; although they concentrate on the same issues both of them have different views on how the issues should be addressed. Two presidential campaigns in which the parties’ candidates differed on the issues are that of 1988 and 1996. Democracy only works when the people who represent the masses differ on the issues, so that to protect our freedom and the parties of our political system are the best representation of this ideology.
He wants to cut back on military use of ground troops and also to seal the border with Mexico, how does he think to get it done what will congress do to help or will they make it more difficult for Donald Trump. Donald Trump has made 76 promises to the public. Donald Trump also what to get rid of numerous health plans and other project that would help the American people out. How does Mexico feel about Donald Trump's plan do they agree with sealing the border between the US and Mexico. Do we know for sure that Donald Trump can keep his promise about making Mexico pay for the building of the wall. Also has Donald Trump stop to think what that might do to the relationship between the US and Mexico. In all Donald Trump has countless plans that may do some good for our country and may also be bad as well. There are many good points that Donald Trump has point out but how will that affect our counrty relationship with other countries. His plans may cause our country to become great again or it may affect use in way’s that will not have people happy. So what will be the Cause and Effects of Donald Trump winning the Presidential
What is at stake for the key parties, including those who disagree with you? What is important to them?
For many years since 1879 citizens of the United States wait in line to vote for the next great president who will help the country stand tall for another four years. But the mistake doesn’t lie in who you vote for, but what you are voting for and supporting. We sometimes ask ourselves, “what does each party do?” or “what are their beliefs for our country?”
The topic that I chose as one of the major problems in the United States, is gerrymandering. With gerrymandering being a factor that contributes to obtaining votes from both extremes of the political spectrum, allows the political candidates to not engage in competition against their opponent. This is due to the political candidate already having guaranteed those votes from because the political party through gerrymandering, has manipulated the boundaries that could concentrate certain groups (political, ethnic, religion, race, beliefs), creating a guaranteed state that will mainly vote for their political party candidate or a safe-zone. These safe-zones were divided between coasts and urban areas (Democratic states) and between the coasts, rural areas and suburbs (Republican states). Within these different boundaries, the political candidates had specific targets that they needed to make their points across. For the democrats, they targeted younger people, women, minorities, and non-religious because most likely they would support the democratic
Well I don’t know much about politics, but I do have a few ideas about what I would love to change as a president. For starters I would want to change the 2nd Amendment: the right to bare arms. Not only that but I would also make all taxes even and based on a percentage of your income. Also I would fund a plan to send every person who wanted an education to school for free. I honestly think the changes that I would be honor to make, would make a better life for citizens.
A great president must be a person with solid character. He must be honest, trustworthy, and a high level of integrity. The president must be honest so when negotiating with other countries. The president must he keep his word and express that "he means what he says".
In the United States, voters have the choice between Republican and Democrats for elected officials. While there are people on tickets for other parties, historically their chance of getting elected is slim. This is a reality that Americans have lived with, and its roots can be traced back to the beginning of the republic. Post-Revolution America brought about much debate over how the government should be ran, how big it should be, and how officials would be elected. Through this political turmoil, many agree that two men had strong voices in how the government should be shaped, Founding Fathers Alexander Hamilton and Thomas Jefferson, and they, combined with the overall eventual setup of the government, are what led to the formation and
One key difference between the Republicans and the Democrats that society sees the most is the debate against taxation and minimum wage. If taxes are being raised, Republicans take it from the middle class or from the poor instead of taking from the rich. Citizens of society that are in the middle class believe that they are the only ones being affected by the change in taxation but that is false. Once again the media portrays that the middle class is affected drastically and to be angry with the government for it. Citizens who are for the democratic party view that the Republicans are just trying to make the rich more rich and the poor more poor. This is the big fight against the Republicans and Democrats and will not seek to an agreement
This problem can pertain to anyone, ages 18 to even 90s, if they are someone looking to pursue higher education that is. One of the most crucial questions one asks themselves when exploring college options is, “How am I going to pay for this?” There are scholarships, grants, loans, and a new option, Income Share Agreements (ISA). ISAs fall in the same idea as loans, but without the debt. Instead, the student takes out a loan and then the investor gets a piece of the borrower’s future income.
It is important that my President's priorities are bettering our country while speaking critically about it when compared to other countries. Acknowledging that America is not number one on most sectors measurements by internationally recognized bodies (such as United Nations Development Programme reports) is the first step to improving our nation. I am aware of my ignorance when it comes to running a country. I may feel education is the most important factor but a focus on education might collapse the economy (this is not an argument, I am simply stating that I do not understand how our country's sectors work in relation to each other). A President and his/her advisers are paid to have some idea of how to keep our
I want a president with a record of public service. Someone whose life’s work shows our children that we don't chase fame and fortune for ourselves; we fight to give everyone a chance to succeed. And we give back even when we are struggling ourselves because we know that there there is someone worse off. There but for the grace of God, go I. I want a president who will teach our children that everyone in this country matters.
The issues that I find most important and most time-sensitive are education, the economy, and terrorism. Improving the educational system is my top priority for President Trump and the Congress because I have been through 12 years of public school and I will be attending college next year. This country focuses too much on competing with educational systems across the world, rather than figuring out how best to educate our kids. I think that the Department of Education should give schools and teachers more freedom to teach their students, not enforce new national standards every few years (I am very strongly against Common Core). I also believe more of the government’s budget should go toward funding for education, specifically the arts. My second priority is the economy. The recession in 2008 directly affected my family, and as I go off to college and begin a career, living in a country with a stable economy is important to me. The United States is in trillions of dollars of debt, and I’d like to see President Trump and Congress try to find ways to reduce that number before spending millions, or billions, of dollars on other things. Finally, terrorism, both foreign and domestic, is my third priority for our government. I do believe that ISIS is a real threat to America, but I also want the President to acknowledge the incidences of domestic terrorism that occur in our country as just that: terrorism. There have been too many school shootings and hate crimes in just the past five years to ignore the idea that domestic terrorism is a threat to Americans. I do not have the knowledge to know how this could be done, but I’d like to see the percentage of terrorist attacks go down over the next four years with Trump in
Most voters have an understanding of a candidate's political views are and how they differ from the rest of the candidates. Most candidates picks the issues that are in the forefront of the political arena and describe how they are different from their competition. Economy is a big issue concern right now because people cannot seem to find work. If the incumbent is doing badly, the other candidate can tell the voters that it is time for a change. If President Obama does not get a handle on the economy soon and get assist people to get back to work, then he will not be re-elected for President in the 2012 election (Schmidt, Shelley, Bardes, 2011, p.196)
My opinion of the political issues facing the United States as proposed by the candidates
