Both candidates are liars and cheats. One thinks he is qualified because he has run more than one business to bankruptcy. The other believes she should be because it is her turn.

Hillary was chosen by the party and never really had a legitimate opponent that could beat her. Neither of these candidates deserve to be president. If you look at their past you will see our future. More of the same disastrous plans that have nearly ruined our country financially. Are you better off now or eight years ago? I know I am not. Think carefully when you cast your vote.
