Presidential Election : President Of The United States

The 2016 Presidential Campaign candidate, Bernie Sanders, believes in creating a better America. In proving to the American people, rich and poor, how great the country can be if all people vote for who is trusted best as future President of the United States. The political figures in government care about money and wealth, not the people. Bernard Sanders would be the best choice for President for the main reason that he is concerned about the issues in America that create inequality for the people. The issues addressed by this candidate will create social and economic equality.

The 1980 presidential election of the United States featured three primary candidates, Republican Ronald Reagan, Democrat Jimmy Carter and liberal Republican John Anderson. Ronald Reagan was the governor of California before he decided to run for the presidency. John Anderson was a representative in Illinois and Carter was the incumbent. The lengthy Iran hostage crisis sharpened public opinions by the beginning of the election season. In the 1970s, the United States were experiencing a straining episode of low economic growth, high price increases and interest rates and an irregular energy crisis. The sense of discomfort in both domestic and foreign affairs in the nation were heading downward, this added to the downward spiral that was already going on. Between Carter, Anderson and Reagan, the general election campaign of the 1980s seemed more concerned with shadowboxing around political issues rather than a serious discussion of the issues that concerned voters.

In 2000 George W. Bush was elected as the 43rd president of the United States. This was despite the fact he lost the popular vote. This was made possible by the Electoral College, the system the United States uses to elect the president (and vice president). Elector are the people appointed to vote for the president in the Electoral College system. These electors are appointed to the states based on the number of people in Congress (and 3 electors are given to the District of Columbia). In most states, electors pledged their votes based on their state’s popular vote. The candidate who receives an absolute majority of the electoral votes, wins the presidency. 1 For example, If a president won the popular vote in Minnesota,

This year the presidential elections will take place at the beginning of November, and there are lots of people wondering how this is going to end. Some candidates for these presidential elections may not have been the best choice for their respective parties, but the one that really shouts, “I should not be here” is Mr. Donald Trump. His personality and actions are not the correct ones for a president because of his temper and comments against other cultures. On the other hand, we have Mrs. Clinton who is a more competent candidate; she has more experience on the field of politics than Mr. Trump who has none at all, which are the reasons why she is a better choice as a candidate and as president of the U.S.

“To succeed we must believe that we can.” - By Nikos Kazantzakis. This quote has truly carried meaningful inspiration for men and women in the world today. The success of one person can lead them to what they want to pursue in life, and it may happen to be becoming the president of the United States. From the first presidency of George Washington, in 1789, and through all the presidencies until today, has only had one thing in common; they all are males. Nonetheless, a woman will eventually become president. Soon, a woman will become president because the twenty first century allows more opportunities for jobs for women, more women are encouraged to be bold as the modern society begins to grow, and many women are just as capable as men in

The 2016 Presidential Election is coming sooner and sooner as each day passes, and it’s approaching the point where all eligible voters need to become informed about the each of the Democrat and Republican candidates running in the 2016 Presidential bid. The voter should be aware of what each candidate represents and what their values are and from that the voter can decide which candidate suits their beliefs best and vote for said candidate when the time comes. In this upcoming election, in my opinion, the candidate that wants the best for the majority of the citizens of the United States is Senator Bernie Sanders. His views in politics, connect with many poor and middle class families because all throughout his political career and his 2016

The 2012 presidential election was fundamentally different than the presidential election of 2004. In 2004, George W Bush defeated John Kerry with 62,028,719 votes, which was essentially 50.8 percent of the ballots cast. In 2004 the issue that was of most concern for Americans was terrorism. Furthermore, the attacks on September 11th 2001 served in bringing the country together to help secure the win for Bush. The polling data shows that 52 percent of the people believed that Bush would do a better job dealing with terrorism and homeland security, versus 29 percent for Kerry. Voters seemed to prefer Bush in dealing with problems in Iraq, 50 to 37 and furthermore, on moral issues, by 47 to 29. Kerry was ahead 48 to 32 on jobs and unemployment and by a fairly wide margin of 51 to 28 on health care. When comparing how people voted, Kerry had the majority of

Bernie Sanders has proven himself a champion of the middle class since his humble beginnings in 1981 as mayor of Burlington, Vermont. Once he became active in office as a member of the Senate in November 2006, Senator Sanders began breaking grounds to help provide “affordable housing, progressive taxation, environmental protection, child care,” and women’s equality. Now that he has officially began his campaign in the 2016 presidential race, Senator Sanders is discussing his ideologies that he believes will help the American people overcome many commonly-encountered obstacles.

The great race that happens every four years in U.S. is getting close to the finish line, and the contestant are pulling all out to win the necessary votes to win. One of the central topics that is very likely to determine the presidential seat this year, is the topics that revolved around women. Women around the U.S. are keep their eyes peeled on the race as it is the second time in the history of the U.S. to have female candidate, and first time to have serious contending to win the whole race. As the race is narrowing to the finish line, it is clear that the most vocal candidates are Donald Trump, Hillary Clinton, and Bernie Sanders. Each of the candidate have their own views on the central topics of women’s right, Sanders and Clinton shares

In this Presidential Election, the Republican Party is a disadvantage in Florida due to the large concentrations of voters in major cities. The majority of the state votes for the Republican candidate, but big cities like Miami, Orlando, and Tampa always seem to vote for the Democratic candidate. In the 2012 election between Mitt Romney and Barack Obama, Mitt Romney won all but thirteen counties but lost in majorly in the urban areas where Barack Obama won an astonishing number of the votes. For Donald Trump to stand a chance, he must focus on the rural cities with a large number of Conservative and Independent voters and has a low voter turnout.

This upcoming presidential election includes a diverse pool of candidates, with a wide variety of opinions coming from different backgrounds. There is one candidate that stands out among the rest: Vermont senator Bernie Sanders. He has decades of experience in politics, which is immensely important for someone holding the position of President. During his time in public service he has demonstrated that he is committed, strong, productive, fair, and honest. Sanders relies on his policies and ideas significantly more than flaunting a charming personality to gain support, and he is able to do this because he has always put a lot of consideration into the decisions he makes. Furthermore, he has always been a strong supporter of quality of opportunity, which is the political ideal advocating the view that the assignment of individuals to places in the social hierarchy is determined by some form of competitive process; all members of society are eligible to compete on equal terms. As president, Sanders would take many steps toward improving this aspect of society. He recognizes that currently there is great disparity in the balance of power, and he has consistently fought towards making the U.S.A. a country where everyone is well taken care of and has access to what they need. If Sanders becomes president, he will fight for everyone to have an equal chance of achieving their own American Dream.

Bernie Sanders takes a very forthright approach on income inequality. He states that “In the year 2015, no one working 40 hours a week should be living in poverty.” He would amend this by raising the minimum wage from 7.50 an hour all the way up to 15 dollars an hour. He has also stated that he will begin taxing big corporations more heavily, and hopes to use that money to fund public works such as rebuilding bridges, roads, railways, airports, public transit systems, and so much more. Bernie Sanders truly wishes to improve the standard of living for your average family and have them be able to be self-sustaining without the need for government welfare.

The 2016 presidential election was one of the most controversial elections to have ever faced the American people. Both major political parties ran on completely opposite platforms which caused the American people to be divided more than ever on policies and beliefs. In fact, the outcome of the election took the media, the American people and the world by surprise. This only divided the American people even further. The Democrats were certain that their candidate, Hillary Clinton, was to be the winner over Donald Trump. History though proved everyone otherwise with the loss of Hillary Clinton. Many analysts claim that the Democrats' loss of the presidency was due to FBI director, James Comey's letter, the media's

In the 2016 general election, Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump both vied to become the candidate that would champion the middle class and build economic opportunity. However, income inequality became a key issue in campaign during the primaries when Senator Bernie Sanders entered the Democratic primary. Senator Sanders, a self-proclaimed Democratic-Socialist, rallied the progressive base of the Democratic party with his message for a political revolution to fix the rigged system in Washington that benefits the rich and powerful. At the Democratic National Convention, he proclaimed, “it is not moral, it is not acceptable, and it is not sustainable that the top one-tenth of 1 percent now owns almost as much wealth as the bottom 90 percent” (“Sanders Prepared Remarks”) Hillary Clinton, the eventual Democratic nominee, continued to

“Despite the negative press covfefe” (Donald Trump). What does it mean? Who or what is covfefe? Why was this said? Was it an accident? With all the questions, it seems there was only thing everyone can agree on - it was a quite unique tweet. Donald Trump, much like his tweets, is the very definition of an outlier. With no political experience, this man rose in the polls and was able to become the president of the United States, beating out Hillary Clinton, who had years of political experience under her belt. This is the same man who lives in a penthouse New York apartment. The same man who has repeatedly walked out on interviews, where as most people would have stayed for the free press, because he believed they were unfair questions. The list goes on and on. Donald Trump is in no way an average person, much less an average president. He is more, and defined much by his previous experiences. However, there are a couple of factors that really stand out in making Donald Trump an outlier. Donald Trump’s views on free speech, his self confidence, and his unique business and marketing strategies all help to form Trump’s identity and make him into the outlier he is today.
