I Want A Woman President, But Not This Woman.

The woman I imagined in the White House represented the best qualities in America, not the worst.

I Want A Woman President, But Not This Woman.

I know the election is a little bit of a sensitive subject, so before I start just a quick disclaimer! This is only my opinion, and if you don't agree with me that's fine. Just because we may have different opinions doesn't mean we can't be friends!

Like most millennials this is my first presidential election to vote in, and like most millennials I'm more then a little disappointed at how it's turned out. Over a year ago this election started out with hope and excitement, and now it's turned into doom and gloom. The idea of there being a female president is exciting and it's amazing to see how far women have come. However, I don't want Hillary Clinton to be that president. I'm sure some people think it's odd that I'm not voting for Clinton, because she is a woman and I'm a woman. After all that's the main reason people assume I would vote for her, but just because we are the same gender doesn't mean I can over look the things she has done.

When I was a little girl I thought about the first female president. Like most little girls I was looking forward to the day we could see a woman in the White House. The woman I imagined in the White House represented the best qualities of America. I did not imagine someone that in my opinion represents the worst qualities of America like corruption, lying, greed, and divisiveness. I definitely never imagined a female president that has been under not only one but two FBI investigations. Even if Hillary Clinton was to be elected there's a possibility she would be indited, and I am really not okay with a Tim Kaine presidency. Hillary Clinton lies nearly every time she opens her mouth, and when she gets caught she lies about lying. In case you want specific examples, here is a list of some of her greatest hits:

-Saying she was dead broke when she left the White House

-Denying her support for the Trans Pacific Partnership

-Claiming she "never received nor sent any material marked classified" on her private email server while she was Secretary of State

-Publicly blaming a you tube video for Benghazi

-Telling the FBI she turned over everything related to her emails

-Saying she never had her aides delete and wipe devices

-Claiming she was under sniper fire in Bosnia in 2008

Not only does she have a long laundry list of lies, but she has an impressive list of mysterious deaths related to her. Obviously none of these can be proven. However, if you want to get chills down your spine google these names and read the stories. Here's a list of 34 people who were linked to the Clinton's and mysteriously died:

Shawn Lucas, Victor Thorn, Joe Montano, Seth Rich, John Ashe, Gareth Williams, Charles Ruff, Carlos Ghigliotti, Charles Wilbourne Miller, Daniel Dutko, Lt. Gen. David J. McCloud, Johnny Lawhorn Jr., James McDougal, Eric Butera, Ron Miller, Mary Caitrin Mahoney, John Hillyer, Barbara Wise, Ron Brown, Charles Meissner, Stanley Huggins, Bill Shelton, Kathy Ferguson, James Bunch, Gandy Baugh, Ed Willey, Jerry Luther Parks, Dr. Stanley Heard, Jon Parnell Walker, Vince Foster, Jim Wilhite, C. Victor Raiser II, Montgomery Raiser, Susan Coleman

America has been waiting for a while to have a woman president, and this is the best we could do?

Now as I said in the beginning if you are a Clinton supporter that's fine by me, but I am tired of having to defend why I'm not a Clinton supporter. Your vote, your choice. However, the first time I vote for a woman for president it is going to be because they are the right candidate for the job, and that's my choice.

Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.
