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.

In honor of Mother’s Day, I have been thinking of all the things my mom does for my family and me. Although I couldn’t write nearly all of them, here are a few things that moms do for us.

They find that shirt that’s right in front of you, but just you can’t seem to find.

Thank You on wooden blocks

1. Thank you for being the one I can always count on to be honest.

A true friend will tell you if the shirt is ugly, or at least ask to borrow it and "accidentally" burn it.

2. Thank you for accepting me for who I am.

A best friend will love you regardless of the stale french fries you left on the floor of your car, or when you had lice in 8th grade and no one wanted to talk to you.

Do as I say, not as I do.

Your eyes widen in horror as you stare at your phone. Beads of sweat begin to saturate your palm as your fingers tremble in fear. The illuminated screen reads, "Missed Call: Mom."

Growing up with strict parents, you learn that a few things go unsaid. Manners are everything. Never talk back. Do as you're told without question. Most importantly, you develop a system and catch on to these quirks that strict parents have so that you can play their game and do what you want.

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!
