During the latest press conference, both candidates, Rebecca Sanders (D) and Jordan Rubio (R), commented on the recent terrorist attacks that have struck France. Amid the climate of fear that these attacks have generated, the conversation geared around questions about foreign policy. However, the quick strokes of domestic policy in this conversation are important to analyze.
Rebecca Sanders restated what she had already declared last week; raising taxes on the upper classes, destroying industries, discouraging economic freedom, etc. Besides her reiteration, Sanders commented on alleged problems with racial justice in the country. Sanders hopes to join Black Lives Matter regardless of the several violent spectacles that the movement has been central to. Sanders aims for “equal voting rights”, however, the candidate seems to fail to recognize the existence of such. As mentioned during the press conference, proof of the opportunity for equal voting is the turnout rates in the 2008 and 2012 elections, where African American turnout was about 66%, two percentage points more than Caucasian turn out. Certainly, Sanders likes provoke quarrels for her own benefit.
Sanders does not only yearn for conflict, but her socialist conjectures are starting to endanger the future of America. As president, Rebecca Sanders would give voting rights to those who have been sentenced to prison for jeopardizing the rights and lives of law-abiding citizens. Justice seems to lose its meaning in the words of senator Sanders.
As per usual, Jordan Rubio embodied the true spirit of the country with grace. He rejected all questions that would dissuade him from commenting on future policies. In good faith, he did not respond questions that would encourage slander about his fellow presidential candidate Rebecca Sanders. His aggression, he mentioned, would not be directed toward the senator, but toward ISIS.
It is not only camaraderie that Rubio displays, but true and inspiring vision for the United States. While many individuals, among them Sanders, have lost all hope in the path of the country, Rubio believes that it would be an error to emulate other countries. The United States was built in the wake of bravery, independence and individuality. Rubio knows that the United States holds a special place in the globe –that citizens of this country yearn for freedom and independence, and will not dare to take the easy route and follow a stranger’s steps. Rubio argued that doing so would have deterred us from achieving our economic and spiritual state.
