As a twenty-something in 2016, I am expected to participate in our country's elections (because its my right as a citizen or whatever). However, this year we embark on a selecting a new president and while I'm always a pioneer for change, this year I'm not too excited about getting a new president in office. Why, you may ask. Well, the two presidential candidates our major parties have chosen are subpar, to say the least, and I feel neither deserve my vote.
Hillary Clinton. Donald Trump. Whyyyyyyyyyyy?!?!?!?!?
I feel like our country is at an all time low for even letting these two make it THIS far not even focusing on the fact that one of them WILL be our president-elect come November and acting president in January.
Personally, I will be voting in November because I WILL exercise my right to vote. But, I do not, have not, and probably will not watch a presidential debate. I feel like its a waste of my time. Its like these two candidates can't say anything that will sway me to whole-heartedly support either of them. I kind of do the same thing with sports (unless its a team I LOVE). I don't watch the game and get the scores once its over. With the debates, I just listen to what I hear around me because either way it won't change my decision.
But to end this little rant of mine, please go out and exercise your right to vote on November 8th. If you don't, you cant complain about the outcome. Also... #MichelleObama2020
