It can be difficult to wade through the murky waters of political rhetoric.

The purpose of every well-written speech is to present a candidate’s most appealing positions—

with no note as to the cost of the policy to the average American or the constitutionality of the ideas.

That’s means it’s easy to fall prey to voting based on one issue or on clouded or misdirected understanding of what is truly at stake.

So while you consider the positions each candidate has, I also urge you to consider this truth:

We need to elect leaders who will bring change to America. If we continue as we are,

we’re setting ourselves up for a financial crash and more polarity between race, gender, and religion than ever before. I’m Mac Hammond, and this is the Winner’s Minute.
