I posted this on another board, but Hillary is just not a good candidate. She was supposed to be a favorite heading into the 08 democratic primaries. Lost out to an unknown candidate from Illinois. She almost got beat out by a Jewish democratic socialist (that might as be Joseph Stalin to some in this country) in this year's primaries. And she lost the presidential election an orange with a toupee that has no political experience and is a racist and misogynist whacko. They picked a person that was more despised than an elite with no filter that brags about touching women without their consent.

Now, I don't think he will follow through with some of his campaign statements (registering Muslims, the wall, gay marriage back to deciding state by state). I think alot of his campaign was just blatant pandering (and as Robus stated, lots of Hillary's was as well). Many Republicans still don't like him, they just liked Hillary even less. I think if he truly tries to do some of what he's promised, he'll be stopped. He won't bring jobs back (neither would Hillary) because the kind of jobs that are leaving can be performed for cheaper in other countries. We don't have a lack of jobs, we have a lack of people skilled enough to perform those jobs. Which means we need to up our investment in education and really focus on that the next couple decades.

My two most important issues are foreign policy and education. Neither Hillary or Trump have foreign policies that make me comfortable. We have alot of people (minorities, homo***uals, transgender etc) that are fearful of what will happen to them with Trump as president, and rightly so. However, I imagine that's how most people in the third world feel whenever a president is elected in the United States because of our military involvement in virtually the entire world. I voted third party because they were the only ones that had non-imperialist foreign policies IMO. As I stated earlier, education could fix alot of the problems in our country. There's alot to be changed about it (curriculum, standards, access, affordability etc). Between Trump and Hillary, there was only one education policy I was gung-ho about and that was Hillary wanting to expand Head Start (free pre-school).
