Trump’s victory in the U.S elections was an unexpected surprise to many people within the United States and around the world. This millionaire and eccentric businessman who pushed through the presidential race with his unfiltered and colorful rhetoric offending or emboldening certain people is now the leader of the free world. This is no dream, but the reality that the people of the U.S now live in and will endure for the next four years. Trump, a person with little to no political experience and who is often seen as a bigot, racist, misogynist, etc. is leading the United States into an uncertain future that may either spell disaster for the U.S or bring about the success of making “America Great Again” as promised by Trump.

“This is our time… to reclaim the American Dream and reaffirm that fundamental truth, that out of many, we are one ; that while we breath, we hope…” ~ Barack Obama (Barack Obama Working to Make a DIfference) The United States of America not only had to seek out the criminals and then rebuild its security on the homefront from the terrorists attack on September 11, 2001, but the United States embraced equality by making Barack Obama President in 2008..

The 2004 election season was during a time of high patriotism supporting the War on Terror after the September 11, 2001 attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon. President George W. Bush ran a reelection campaign on American pride, national security and security of the American family. This platform resonated with the American populace, especially married women, who historically support the democratic candidate. In 2000 Al Gore won women voters over President Bush by 11 points. However, in 2004, John Kerry only mustered a 3 point victory in female voters over President Bush. Of those, married women favored President Bush over John Kerry by 11 percent (Trei).
