Hmmmm I don't know what to think of the current elections here coming up in the United States.
It seems we have no choice's to choose from. Either Hillary or Trump. It's a pretty scarey situation indeed. |

I agree
for I welcome neither...
to what (by definition)
is the most powerful job in the world!
Too often we underestimate the power of a touch,
a smile, a kind word, a listening ear, an honest compliment,
or the smallest act of caring,
all of which have the potential to turn a life around.

Saying what I have in my last post...
if I were an American citizen qualifying
to have a vote
it would have to be Clinton
as opposed to Trump...
as a result of his emotional instability,
misogyny and xenophobia.

PS., plus his sexual proclivities
real or fantasy, makes no difference...
his boast about same is on record.

Very scarey thought if trump should win. God only knows what he will do. Then again we have Hillary which I don't believe she will make much changes either to make this a better country.
I guess we just have to sit here and wait it out until the next election to get a good president. |

Chelle and David,
Everyone, including the US press, has been saying that, that we don't really have much choice this election, that both candidates have major liabilities. I personally am for Hillary, and I don't feel she is all that bad. But I don't want to start a big argument over this as I know many people have strong opinions.
I would like to make this point: approximately 44% are voting for Hillary and 41% for Trump. Let's say there are 200 million voters in the US. That means a whole lot of people are voting for one or the other and have strong emotions for their choice. People have their reasons. I just think we should be careful. After the election, in about 10 days, we will have to accept our new leader and try to support him or her, and make the best of it.

I don't live in the US but am following the news and events closely.
