STRENGTHS AND WEAKNESSES OF THE NOMINEES

These two years had been an incredible spectacle when it becomes to the United States' campaings for the 2016 election. The famous Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton were the principal candidates for presidency, besides from Bernie Sanders and others. The Americans had an important role in those election. They had to choose the right candidate to take up Obama's place. The best way to choose the right one is doing a Little bit of research about them and comparing there strenghts and weaknesses.

DONALD TRUMP
Weak Points:
  • Immigration:
Donald Trump wants to build a wall which will separate the USA from Mexico and he explain himself saying: 'We have no country without borders'. He also says that Americans are killed who came to the USA illegally and that they bring with them drugs to sell it and make money. He says exaclty this: We have some bad Hombres here and we are gonna make them out.
  • Women discrimination
The buisnessman has a dark past with horrorific discriminatory comments about women. He does not have any respect for women. An obvious example is when he was caught saying vulgar things about women with Billy Bush. He also humilated women such as Alicia Machado (the Miss Universe of 1996), when he called her an eating machine and the 'Miss Piggy'.
  • Climate change:
Trump doesn't take the climate change serious. He makes fun of it and he says that it is a chinease hoax. The climate change is very important to have it present everyday. If he will be the president, he must take responsability of that and make security mesure, just like Hillary Clinton would do it.

Strong points:
  • About the speeches:
I think that Donald Trump got more and more famous for the speeches that he made. When Trump makes a speech he says everything: his opinion, his points of view, what he wants to do and what he will do. That shows him the kind of person he is. I think that this is a strong point from him because people know who is he and what are his thoughts. However, Hillary Clinton does not say anything. In fact, in every speech she has made or in the debates with Trump, she focus on what Donald said and she doesn't give her opinion in some aspects. That makes me feel that what Hillary says and what she really thinks is not the same.
  • He knows how to win voters:
In my opinion, I think that Donald Trump knows how to win voters even if it seems quite the opposite. He knows what people think about the current situation in the world (the wars, the terrorism attacks, the refugiees, the immigration,...), so, he takes advantatges of that. He is racist because a lot of people in the USA is. So, he can use that to win people. On the other hand, his humor influences the opinion of the youth. I bet that a lot of young people could voted him because he looks cool and funny.

HILLARY CLINTON
Strong points:
  • Women’s rights and opportunity:
Hillary Clinton says that if she wins the election she will rease the mínimum of the women's wages. She will also fight for paid leave, then women would have to chose between keeping their Jobs and taking care of a sick family member. She adds that parents shouldn't have to go back to work right after they welcome a newborn baby. Clinton wants to confront violence against women, considering that there is a lot of women victims because of that.
  • Education system:
A good thing about Clinton is that she wants to reformate the United States' education system. Hillary Clinton said that as a president she will make preschool universal for every 4-year old in America. She will increase childs care investments so that the families would not have to pay more tan he 10 percent of its income to afford high-quality child care. She will also award scholarships of up to 1,5000 dollars per year to help students parents ans she will increase access to college campuses. She also says that every student should have the option to graduate from a public college or university in their state without taking on any debts.
  • LGBT rights and equality.
Hillary Clinton fights for full federal equality for LGBT American. She supports LGBT youth, parents and elders and she will protect transgender rights.
  • Climate change
About the climate change, Hillary said that if she becomes president of the United States of America, she will launch a 60 billion of dollars in Clean Energy Challenges to partner with states, cities and rural communities to cut carbón pollution and expand clean energy. She will also try to esure safety and responsability in energy production.

Weak points:
  • Emails scandal.
Everyone knows about the email scandal but not everyone gives the importance that this has. Why would Hillary use a personal email to work with top secret things? You only hide things if you want anybody to notify. Why would Hillary Clinton hide things if she is politically correct? This gide us to believe that Hillary and her political party have a lot to hide.
  • What she had voted for.
Hillary Clinton doesn't says what she really things about many aspects. She only says what we want to hear. If we describe her, she is not racist, she is a good person, she would never hurt someone, etc. But the thing is that she is not like that. Hillary seems to fight for womens rights but when it becomes to reality, she voted against abortion. She also voted yes for war in Iraq, for a 'barrier' in Mexico (which is the same as a wall), etc. In the following video, you will see the semblances between what Hillary says about immigration and what Donald Trump says.



  • The strategist politics that she hides.
The following video explains exactly what I mean:



In my opinion, It think that it is not right to build a 'wall' and seperate people from a country. But the think is, why we focus a lot on the fact that Donald Trump wants to build a wall and we don't give importance to the fact that Spain build a fence in Melilla, that Britain will start to build a huge wall in Calais, France, to stop the migrants trying to get onto trucks near the port or that Israel built a wall up to eight metres high in the West Bank.
Yes, Donald Trump is a racist and a bad person but this doesn't mean that everyone who is not Trump is good. The world is not just like a film: sometimes the bad caracter is not really the bad one.
Also, a good thing about Hillary Clinton is that she has the support of Barcak Obama, of course. They are from the same political party, remember?
