Election 2016

Another election cycle and another opportunity to see the core behavior of whoever may be our next Commander-In-Chief.

Agree or disagree, here's my thought process: No more career politicians or corrupt lawyers in the White House! When considering either party this literally narrows it down to two people: Trump and Carson. 

Trump was born into wealth and is a bully who is most likely to start a nuclear war due to insulting Iran, China or Russia. He cannot threaten legal action against other countries to get them to do what he wants (as has been his go to tactic throughout life) and sanctions have proved meaningless under the Obama administration. So what's Trumps plan? He doesn't have one. He just wants to 'win' and add the presidency as another notch in his belt.

Carson on the other hand, was born into poverty and earned his way through life to become the most successful neurosurgeon in the world. He knows what it's like to live in poverty and struggle to overcome social boundaries and knows what it's like to work hard in order to get results.He is also a vocal God-fearing man which is admirable considering this generally doesn't add to any candidates popularity. More importantly, Carson has tangible plans to fix our nations problems. For example, he has stated that having a fixed tax percentage for everyone with no deductions/write offs. This is brilliant because it closes loopholes and eradicates the mass confusion that ensues upon the dawn of tax season. He also advocates individual responsibility by promulgating a health savings account for each citizen upon their birth.


Where is Trump on these issues? He simply wants to 'win' and be 'great'!
