Voice Your Vote

By: Stylicia Bowden

In the world of politics the old cliché “fighting fair” may not be a reality for this presidential election. If you have been following both candidates you will realize how vital it is to voice your vote for this upcoming election. Everyone has an opinion about each candidate; however, the facts are what count for casting your vote. Once you begin to separate the child’s play involved during the Q&A debate session, then you can begin to filter through the topics that matter to you. This will help you analyze whether Donald Trump or Hillary Clinton will be the ideal candidate to vote for.
