Who Were The Top 2 Candidates?

I’ve never really thought or cared about where I stand in politics, but after taking the two surveys the results were pretty interesting. I was able to see where I stand in politics, and find it agreeable to my own personal beliefs

Many people have different opinions on political subjects. The ways a person may feel about these subjects determine what they are in the political world. I personally do not follow politics like other people older than me do, but I do consider myself to be a moderate democrat. Both of my parents are democrats, and they choose to be of this political spectrum because they feel like the Democratic Party represents them. They feel as they stand for policies that will better them as people. With me, I am my own person so I take in the considerations of my parents’ choice, but also make my own decisions. I do believe in some of the policies and ideas of the Democratic Party, but disagree on

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?”

In conclusion, I think the opportunity to ask any candidate a question would be amazing, and although my question seems antagonistic, it comes from a place of genuine concern. I have never heard him elaborate on his philosophy of “make America great again,” at least not in depth. I have really enjoyed this prompt as it has allowed me to express my concerns as a future voter and I will definitely try to seek out extensive information when I am eligible to

I took three quizzes, the ‘Political Typology Quiz’, ‘The Political Party Test’ and the ‘I Side with Presidential Quiz’, to determine my own political identity. Each of the quizzes had a myriad of questions that ultimately resulted in a final result displaying my political standpoint. The first two quizzes resulted in a product of ‘Young Outsider’ and ‘Independent’, two identities that are not completely partial to neither of the two major groups, the conservatives nor liberals. Each considered politically neutral. The third quiz; however, stated that I shared various viewpoints with two major Democratic candidates, Hilary Clinton and Bernie Sanders. But, I still had a portion of my views in connection with Donald Trump and Ben Carson, two

After learning about the different sides and actually understanding their views I can see more clearly now how I seem to identify with both parties. When we took the quiz in the beginning of the unit, I had really no idea about the difference between a Republican and Democrat besides that one was more conservative and other was more liberal not even knowing the differences between the political ideologies and the political parties. When I talk about politics with people, I feel that knowing where I stand on the political spectrum will be helpful to me because I will be able to make more educated statements and viewpoints to others within this

We hold debates between the Republican and Democrats before the primaries, and then we hold debates between the two remaining presidential candidates. Upon first glance it may appear that the presidential debates are held to get to know the candidate’s positions on the various issues that are important to the American people; however, the format of the debates make it difficult to accomplish that task. Instead, it is more plausible that these debates are held in order to discover what the candidates are like personally because the debates provide ample opportunities for us to discover the candidate’s values. Ultimately, we want to find out the values that these potential presidents have because we want someone we trust to lead the

In order to have a government that is run by people; specifically, people that must choose a candidate to vote for, its seems fit that it would be important that there be adequate means of illustrating each candidate’s positions on all of the issues that the constituents care about. Presidential debates are the means of showcasing a candidates’ policies to the nation and at the same time they allow the citizens in the democratic society to make a more informed decision about their vote than they otherwise would have without a debate.

The election year of 2016 has proven to be full of acrimony between candidates and the people in our country. While this election progresses, it is difficult to determine what my decision will be when November approaches.

“Personally, I think the public deserves full and open access to candidates, and is made stronger and wiser by being allowed to compare candidates side by side in debates.”

I would say that this is quite an accurate representation of my political ideology. Despite not having all the same views as the majority of this group holds, I deeply align with many of them. For example, this group is slightly more conservative and leans toward the Republican party, but holds the opinions of both parties, which is an accurate assessment. I believe that I am mostly conservative, but I also hold a lot of mixed views espoused by both political parties. The Young outsiders are largely skeptical of activist government, which I believe to be true, which proves the quiz results accurate. Environmental and liberal social policies are also supported by this group, many of which I also support, once again, consistent with my results. This evidence proves that I am consistently aligned as a Young Outsider based upon my own personal views which agrees with the results of the typology

For me this quiz definitely gave me a sense of how little I actually understand of the presidential candidates. While I have an idea who I would vote for, I would definitely want to make sure I understand everything about their presidential plan. However, on a personal note, I believe that social

Democrat or republican? You have always just chosen what you believed, right? Well, the choice you make could actually be based on how your brain functions! In How Politics Breaks Our Brains, and How We Can Put Them Back Together, Brain Resnick uses studies and experiments, strong credible figures, and a weak personal life experience to argue his claim that people have a partisanship side of them that is built into the brain. This causes decisions to be made on a biased mind. These points give a shaky but over-all strong argument that the general audience can agree with.
