Hillary Clinton is our ideal presidential campaign up to date; Clinton is very familiar with politics and has always been in the background working for the people whose voices need to be heard. Three of the biggest issues Clinton has focused on during her campaign is same sex marriage, healthcare, taxes and wages. These three issues have major importance with our society today. Same sex is viewed as illegal, well Clinton believes that it isn’t right to deprive people of their constitutional rights to engage in matrimony, love has no gender. This being one of the hottest topics in society, Clinton shows how she supports her same sex communities. Healthcare has always been such a big topic, being that many Americans are without healthcare because it can be too expensive, but Clinton is working to keep healthcare affordable, so that the people can have a chance to receive such benefits. The last issue that has major influence on our campaign would be taxes and wages, mainly the fact that upper class families aren’t taxed as much as middle class families which doesn’t sit right with our nation. Clinton plans to fight towards lowering taxes for middle class and also having the minimum wage raised to have people afford their living situations. Clinton is looking out for the better of her people, which makes her the ideal candidate.
