Americans start voting in US presidential election
Well the time has come for America to choose it's next president, however in my opinion its a double ended sword. This two horse race features two candidates which have come under some scrutiny in recent times. On one side of the battle for presidency you have Hilary Clinton who deletes thousands of secret emails at a time from the FBI, she also accepted millions in illegal bond loans from foreign governments who harbour terrorists, suppress women and regularly execute gays and lesbians. The same women who is the former First Lady and also Senator State of New York with a vast democratic history, oh and who's husband was also an ex president. Against Donald Trump, a so called billionaire tycoon who wants to build a "great wall" across the border to stop Mexicans getting into the country as they "rape our women and smuggle drugs", he also hates Latinos. Trump also takes a dislike to blacks, women and most of all muslims, stating how there must be a system of when muslims enter and leave the country along with blaming them for 9/11, but to top it all off he also hates people with disabilities and surprisingly Barack Obama, who lets face it is probably the coolest president the Americans will ever have. Honestly if I were an American I'd probably just stay at home on election day and watch a movie.
Firstly I want to look at Hilary Clinton's campaign, she primarily is focusing on jobs for the American people, making college tuition fees free with the government taking on the debt, combating terrorism and keeping the homeland safe and immigration reform. I don't know if it's because I'm not knowledgable when it comes to American politics but when Hilary Clinton's slogan for the campaign was "stronger together" it didn't give me much to go on, it just seems like yet again another corny catchphrase in which at the end of it being used in a commercial she'll turn to the side camera and do a big cheesy smile. However this may be working as in the polls she's narrowly ahead over her rival so I can see the appeal to voters, with Hilary you get a sense of unity in which you feel if she becomes president she'll tackle issues like the economy and getting jobs for people. But then I also think of the b******t which comes from politicians mouths, her background of politics is impressive there's no denying that but on the other hand t's also highly corrupted which is turning voters away. In their final rallies Trump accused his rival of being corrupt talking about investigations with the FBI, deleting emails in secret and securing funds from foreign countries illegally. To me this isn't someone I would want running the country.
If you look past Donald Trumps outrageous statements and take a look at his policies or lack of them, his "make American great again" campaign has caused uproar in the country and really divided voters. He fits many of the presidential criteria, he has a big mouth to shout down opponents, he has a vast amount of wealth to fund his campaign, but mainly he has ideas on how America should be ran and this makes him eligible to run for president. Hilary's main backlash at Trump came while the Democratic nominee labelled the New York developer unfit for high office, the surge in voting from Latino's is up 80% from 4 years ago showing how there may be a potential turn in the tide for Mrs.Clinton, one which Trump may have caused himself.

In conclusion I feel sorry for the American people that one of these nominees have to become their next leader. As China’s state-owned Xinhua argued: “American voters will be the biggest losers in the election,” and claimed the US system is now controlled by a small number of rich and connected. This is coming from a State Owned country.
