The Right, The Left And Those Effected In Between

The Right, The Left And Those Effected In Between

Since this past election in 2016, I feel like America has been split up into three groups and I wanted to get your opinion on my viewpoint. The first group that America has is the traditional political machine . Hillary Clinton and Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer are the leaders of this group. This is the group that would say "I am here to make a change for America." When in hindsight , all they ever did was stick with the status quo that would fund their pockets and push their money pile higher and higher.

The second group in America are the "controlled anger group". In my opinion , these people are the ones who voted and feel vindicated by Trumps win. A lot of these people feel like government isn't the answer , but the problem . These people are also people who looked up to Ronald Reagan and needed to find someone who gave a feeling that they would "Make America Great Again." They resent the government helping people because they feel deep in their hearts that government is the problem and not the solution.

The third group that America is split up into is called the progressive party. This is a party that was born off of liberal ideals and wanted to actually make a difference for the working mans life and hope that he would be able to get enough money to send his kids to college without worrying about saving up or worrying about going into debt. Bernie Sanders was the leading force behind this movement and it made quite a big impact on the political spectrum. Some people believe that Hillary lost because of Bernie Sanders, which in my opinion is not completely accurate. The problem with Hillary Clinton is that she was not relatable to a lot of her voters and therefore , people who intended to vote for her turned out to vote for Bernie because he seemed more genuine about what he had to say.

Anyway, that is my opinion on America today and I was interested into wondering what your viewpoint was.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.
