Let me tell you something about my father's side of the family: They are big into politics. Every get-together, there is some debate about it, and they know what they are talking about, and who they like and don't like in the government.
My father has been in the military for almost 30 years. Everyone in my family knows who they are voting for; my boyfriend knows who he is voting for and is educated on politics too. Let me tell you something about me: I am highly uneducated, let alone interested in politics. I am one that listens to what the media and my peers tell me, but not what I truly believe in. I didn't have any idea of which 2016 candidate I was truly against or whose side I was on!
Until today. Today, I stumbled upon a website: isidewith.com
The website holds information on the candidates, polls, and tax plans. The website informs of the issues on things like illegal immigration, environmental safety, gun violence, military funding, and more! The polls and charts show who is voting for what, who is voting for who, and why. There are polls on social issues, immigration, domestic policy, the economy, healthcare, foreign policy, education, the election, the environment, science, and clinical issues. This helped me a lot to understand a little bit more about each matter, what other people of America think, and what each candidate wants to do for America.
The best part of the website is that they have a quiz: "2016 Election: How do your beliefs align with the potential candidate?" This helped match me up with the candidate I agree with most. The quiz also gave me the rest of the lineup on who I should be voting for in order by percentage (highest percentage to lowest percentage). The percentage is dictated by what you answered for the questions asked.
With that said, I suggest you take the time to answer he questions on this quiz if you don't know who to vote for. It's a way to share your stance on things to figure out who you stand by in the presidential election of 2016.
Here is the link to quiz.
When this website popped up on my Facebook page a few days ago, my political life changed. I now know a lot more about everything and everyone, and I have a better idea of who to vote for! If you are in the situation I was in, not knowing anything about politics but wanting to, this is the website for you!
