I believe that Hillary Clinton's power is just as fraudulent as her husband's. While the U.S. had the lowest unemployment and inflation rates, low crime rates, and a budget surplus under his presidency, Bill was impeached and charged with lying under oath to a federal grand jury and obstructing justice. While Bill lied about Monica Lewinsky, the ... [Read More…]
Latinos for Hillary Clinton: Don’t send my parents away
I am the first in my family to vote, and during this election, I am not voting on my behalf but on my family’s behalf. As a first generation American student, I have a great decision resting on my shoulders during this presidential election. For the first time in my life, I have to think about someone else’s future rather than my own. ... [Read More…]
I’m playing the race card and here’s why
I will be voting for Hillary Clinton on Nov. 8 because I feel that a vote for Donald Trump would be a vote for a less safe and tolerant America.

George Washington is probably rolling in his grave
I’m not going to pretend like I know everything about politics. I’m not going to pretend like I have all the answers.

Will Trump actually make America great again?
I've never voted in an election. Until a few weeks ago, I wasn't sure I'd vote in this one. In fact, I received my voter's registration card only a few months ago, so you could say this political landscape is somewhat new for me. However, through research and civil discussion I have come to the decision to support presidential candidate Donald ... [Read More…]
There’s no crying in baseball unless you’re a Rangers fan
I want to start by saying that I had actually planned to write an entirely different column this week talking about real problems – but then game three of the ALDS happened and, as a Rangers fan, I had a lot of feelings about it so I wrote this instead.

What you can learn from Donald Trump’s video
The shot heard around the world last week was when the Washington Post released a video from a 2005 Access Hollywood taping in which a hot mic captured Donald Trump objectifying actress Arianne Zucker and disclosing that he may have committed sexual assault. The second shot heard around the world was when he dismissed his comments as “locker ... [Read More…]
Is a Master’s degree worth my money? Perhaps, yes
During this week’s Graduate Awareness Week, the university’s graduate schools invited students to learn about post-graduation options. Because we all want more school, right? At this point of the semester, any more school after a bachelor’s degree may seem overwhelming, but for some students, graduate school could be a practical next step ... [Read More…]
