Why I'm A Female And I'm Not Voting For Hillary Clinton

Hillary Clinton sucks, period.

Why I'm A Female And I'm Not Voting For Hillary Clinton
jtf.org

For starters, I'll say that my entire family is a part of the Democratic party. They're all pro-union, something that Hillary claims she's in full support of. I, myself, have voted Democrat before. I'm sick and tired of people saying that they're voting for Hillary because "It'd be nice to have a female president." I'm a female too, obviously, but there's absolutely no way I can vote for Hillary Clinton and here're a couple reasons why.

1. Her comment degrading nurses.

Clinton once stated that "nurses were overpaid and nothing but doctor's handmaids." Being a nursing major, I can't see myself voting for someone who degrades my chosen profession, but claims to support all unions. Nurses are part of a union, and I can't see her supporting people she claimed were nothing but a step-down from a doctor.

2. Benghazi.

Clinton is a pathological liar about the whole Benghazi tragedy. Her failure to act and her countless excuses as to why she didn't makes me sick. We know for a fact based on State Department documents that Benghazi was a terrorist attack, she let four people die.

3. Landing in Bosnia.

Clinton claimed that she landed under sniper fire in Bosnia. When in reality, she and Chelsea were seen in a video strolling across the Bosnian tarmac smiling and receiving flowers from well-wishers.

4. Lying about being a public servant.

Clinton claims to be a public servant and having "sacrificed" 30 years in public service. She hasn't sacrificed anything, she's lived the progressive dream for years.

5. Lying about being "dead broke" when she left the White House.

A few weeks before they left the White House, the Clinton's were able to muster a cashdown payment of $855,000 and secure a $1.995 million mortgage. This hardly fits the common meaning of "dead broke."

Her tons and tons of lies are a red flag for me. I don't care if she's a female and she'd be the first woman president. Martin Luther King claims that people should be judged on "the content of their character." To me, Clinton's character isn't helping her chances of winning this election. Even though I'm a democrat and a female, I think that anyone would be better than Hillary Clinton as our next president. I'm not voting for her, and you shouldn't either. While I think that neither Trump nor Clinton are good enough candidates to run this country, I'd take Trump's blatant and sometimes harsh honesty over Clinton's flip-flop personality any day. Trump has been consistent in what he's been saying he'd do as president, but Clinton has been changing her plans each and every press conference.

The Daily Struggles of Being a College Commuter

It's not all morning coffees and singing along to the radio.

The Daily Struggles of Being a College Commuter
morethanwheels

I've been in college for four years now. I spent half my time as a commuter and half as a resident so I've experienced both sides of the housing spectrum. One thing I've learned comparing the two is that my struggles as a commuter far outweigh anything I went through while living on campus. Commuters have to deal with the problems school brings along with a slew of other issues; I've filled up my gas tank in the worst kind of weather conditions and napped in random places in public more times than I'm proud to say of. This is a list of some of the most challenging aspects of being a commuter.
