The Author of this article titled “I am a Bernie Sanders support and I refuse to vote for Hillary” insists that Democratic voters should make cautious decisions on whether Hillary should be president of the United States. Stated in the article, the author gave specific reasons why she wasn’t voting to Hillary. She states that due to many inconsiderate laws, bills, and actions she’s taken over the years, because of this Hillary should not be trusted as our President. The author also includes the lack of progressiveness the Democratic party has failed to exemplified. The author in this article is using one of the things we’ve learned called majoritarian which is the completion of both parties by calling both the republicans and democrats for what she feels like they lack in.
What are your thoughts about this article, do you think she is making a rightful decision by voting for neither parties?
I think that the author is making the wrong decision by choosing not to vote. It is an example of the privilege she holds. She is willing to let Trump win because she dosn't like Hillary. Democrats need to realize that so many people would be negatively effected if Trump wins. -Anika Blitzstein
ReplyDeleteI disagree with the author's decision because although Hillary may not be her first choice, I know she is the first choice before Trump. I think to not vote is irresponsible because it diminishes the idea of a democracy, and it is passing up a great opportunity. However, I do agree with her that the democratic party needs some radical, progressive change, and I don't blame her for questioning Hillary's honesty, but in the long run, she is more honest than Trump. --Nuala Brennan
