    Through the first presidential debate, Hillary Clinton has proved that she is the best choice for President. First, she proved that she is more empathetic to the common American. She herself came from a middle-class family. During the debate, she preached about her hardworking father, who worked in drapery. Trump came from a wealthy family, so he cannot relate to average Americans as well as Clinton can. She then expressed her desire for tax cuts for the middle class, and tax increases for the rich. She also mentioned how she intends to create 10 million jobs by investing in industries such as “clean energy”. She proved that she will do her best to make everyday life better for them. Next, she behaved more professionally then her opponent,…

    Tragedies seem unreal for people who are directly affected by them. There something that can either unite or destroy people. Just like making life decisions can take away a life or give life. A similar decision was made to take away Timothy McVeigh’s life as a sentence due to his action to bomb 168 individuals in the Murrah Building on April 19, 1995. This horrific circumstance is remembered as the Oklahoma City Bombing. One man’s decision to inflict pain, due to his strong faith, caused another to return the favor on a more intense level.Who is America to decide that she will be the bearer of life or, in McVeigh’s case, a barrier of death? “While the horrific scale of McVeigh’s crime seem to demand the ultimate penalty, there’s something…

    In March 2015, Hilary Clinton came into the public limelight after she was exposed that she used a private email server for official communications. This happened when she was the United States Secretary of State. This was breaking the regulations since she was supposed to utilize the official state Department email accounts that are maintained on Federal government servers. She also deleted 32,000 emails that she claimed to be private (Dinan, 2015). By doing this, she defied State Department procedures and protocols and also the Federal legislation that govern the requirements for recordkeeping. In her 2016 presidential campaigns, Hilary Clinton has set her economic policy goals. Her…

    Since the beginning of this race, millions of us Americans have become more and more doubtful of Hillary Clinton's ability to defeat Mr. Trump. There is no longer any doubt that Hillary Clinton has become a burden to the public and to the party. When we ponder all her issues, including her health complications, her 'pay to play' foundation, her war exploiting, and her email scandal, to name just a few, it appears that her deficiencies far exceed her positives. Donald lacks clear thinking and must never become Commander-in-Chief. Scaring voters with the prospect of Trump as president is only another Secretary Clinton media tactic to deceive us into voting for a corporate puppet who will lead us into war as she destroys…

    In Benghazi, Libya, September 11, 2012, the United States consulate was attacked by terrorists affiliated with Al-Qaeda. Four brave Americans: Ambassador Chris Stevens, Sean Smith, Tyrone Woods, and Glenn Doherty, were killed. The entire story of the incident has been very unclear; it seems the Obama Administration desires to cover it up. The American people, especially the families of the fallen, deserve to know the truth of the grievous assault against not only our consulate but also our country. That starts with the three main questions that need to be answered: what happened during the attack, who is responsible, and why is the Obama administration downplaying it.…

    Multiple Bombs Explode during the Boston Marathon (Apr. 15): Multiple bombs explode near the finish line of the Boston Marathon. Two bombs go off around 2:50 in the afternoon as runners finish the race. At least three people are killed. One is an eight year old boy. More than 170 people are injured. Another explosion happens during the afternoon at the JFK Library, but officials confirm that the incident is not connected. Later in the day, President Obama says from the White House briefing room, "We still do not know who did this or why, and people shouldn't jump to conclusions before we have all the facts, but make no mistake: We will get to the bottom of this. Any responsible individuals, any responsible groups will feel the full weight of justice." (Apr. 18): President Obama speaks at the Cathedral of the Holy Cross in Boston's South End. After the service, both the president and First lady Michelle Obama visit those injured in the explosions who are still recovering in the various hospitals throughout Boston. Later in the day, the FBI releases photos and video of two suspects in the hope that the public can help identify them. "Somebody out there knows these individuals as friends, neighbors, co-workers, or family members. Though it may be difficult, the nation is counting on those with information to come forward and provide it to us," says FBI special agent Richard DesLauriers upon the release of the photos and video. Just hours after the FBI releases the images, the two suspects rob a gas station in Central Square then shoot and kill a MIT police officer in his car. Afterwards, the two men carjack a SUV and tell the driver that they had set off the explosions at the marathon. Police pursue the vehicle into Watertown.

    She has paid her due, put in the hard work. But instead of vetting her objectively, the so-called Berniebots or Berniebros (who are mainly inexperienced young people behind the unsuccessful “Occupy Wall Street” movement) have joined and/or fueled by clandestine conservative groups to mount attacks on the credibility of the former Secretary. It is indeed sickening to hear arguments against Hillary Clinton as being a hawk and other disingenuous criticism of policies she worked on while at the State Dept. People seem to forget that even as head of the State Dept., whatever policy she advocates is subject to the president’s approval. How can we justifiably separate her from the president she worked for? When you criticize her stewardship at the State Dept., one is effectively saying Obama is the same. But that is not what we’ve been hearing is…
