Unfortunately, Bernie Sanders lost to Hillary Clinton to become the Democratic Presidential Nominee. While I will congratulate Hillary Clinton on her victory, I am still saddened on our choices of this year of presidential candidates.

Even though I really do not want Donald Trump to become president, I cannot fully support Hillary Clinton as I do not think she will fully represent me. The thing that pulled my vote for Senator Sanders was how I felt how genuine he is when he speaks on issues.

Of course, I don't agree with all of the things he is trying to do, but I can honestly say that he has been fighting for others since his political career. I remember seeing a video of a Bernie Sanders rally , and protesters who took his microphone and he allowed them to speak to voice their opinions. Of course, it was ignorant of them to do that since he is for their cause, but the fact he did not silence them as they voiced their concerns speaks high volumes about it. Something similar happened to Hillary Clinton, but instead she silenced the protester as if the protester's voice did not matter. Not voting at all or voting for a third-party is pointless since that will secure Donald Trump's victory. There was a campaign that was ran clean, but it was sabotaged by his own party. I felt like there was hope to continue great leadership after President Obama. It is truly heartbreaking that he lost and how the way he lost. While Hillary Clinton's name was already established, Bernie had to actually fight for his support and name to be out there.

On social media there are a ton of Bernie Sanders supports, but also those that did not vote. It is important to get registered to vote so a person's voice will be heard.
