I have plenty of reasons to NOT vote Clinton or Trump. Can you give me one unemotional, no BS, detailed policy reason to vote FOR either one?

The next president will appoint a justice to fill Scalia's vacant seat on the Supreme Court. And it is rumored that from one to three more justices will be retiring, so the next president could be making even more appointments. Nuff said.

Sure, depending on the details you are asking for. Example, sealing the border. Congress agree a fence long ago and even made a puny attempt to do so. Are you asking how he will be able to get Congress to complete it. More Border Patrol?

Each policy has been what the majority asked for in polls. No one can tell us precisely how they will be accomplished in detail, but can explain in broad strokes. My, or anyone's, thoughts could be on the mark or way off given our Congress and their lack of back bone.

It again comes down to whichever turd is the most shiny. Considering that all the 3rd party candidates are for the most part hidden from public view. None have been at a debate since the major parties picked their candidate.

The next president could potentially put 3 or more (potentially 5) Supreme Court justices in place (in the next 8 years) - easily enough to swing the voting to completely liberal (and IMHO, completely out of control) now that one of the greatest is dead - Justice Antonin Scalia. And we already know they will appoint 1 right off the bat that will tip the scales in many of the votes. I'd rather have Trump do that than Hillary.

We have given the political class the chance to make a difference, they did not. I would suggest we look at the Senate and Congress and aggressively pursue term limits. If a President can get too powerful, so can Representatives

I can't and this is the very reason I will not vote for either one. And "NO" not voting for Trump is not a vote for Hillary and not voting for Hillary is not a vote for Trump. That argument is a fallacy.

Neither one represent me. I feel that HRC is "foul". She is that self centered, no rules apply, pandering, and deceitful woman who'd send someone to do a long bid for something she did. No integrity at all. At the same time, the last five presidents have too. This has nothing to do with me disliking her personally, which I do, but how much she'd screw up, or how much Bill would actually be president for a third and fourth term by proxy screwing things up. I don't see her as the "bridge" that heals a broken nation race wise. I see her as more division with a smile. I'm hoping that her ties to Wall Street don't prove to be the next recession for a nation that is slowly but steadily moving on up.
Trump I don't like due to the way he see's people. Whereas I believe HRC will sit and talk to you (doesn't mean she'll listen or hear you), Trump wouldn't even sit down to hear anything that doesn't support what he wants. He has no loyalty to the nation. His loyalty is to dead presidents. We're a nation of immigrants, yet to him we are a nation of white or Caucasian men, and the rest to include women, minorities, handicapped, and any other deplorable he cares less for. He is also a strong liar. You say things, tweet things, blame your comments on bad or faulty equipment, but never take ownership of them. For a military man, those are against us all regardless of branch. You say it, you mean, you stand by it, right or wrong. You either come out the hero, of you come out looking for a new job, knowing you held firm with your sack in your hands. Pence is proof of how much he can screw up by screwing you. Pence is trying to keep the party together, taking the comments Trump makes and soften them up so the masses won't haul ass and vote for someone else. And here comes Trump telling the world, He and I haven't spoken, or he'll just come out with more gas to throw on the fire, and take more fire retardant from Pence. Hence making Pence look like more of a fool. His bromance with Russia bothers me. You can say what you will about Obama and his relations with them, or Israel, but no one ever said you have to be pro-either one. Trump is beyond pro-Russia to the point I wonder would his desire to appease to Putin be more of a problem than anyone wants to admit?

Here's the most important part of the election the appointment of Supreme Court Justice. You have two choices that's it. Hillary Clinton or Donald Trump Hillary wants to appoint justices that will look beyond the scope of the constitution her words Trump wants people like Scalia. I would remind that your oath is to the constitution above all else. One wants people who will uphold it as written the other wants to have it reinterpreted to better fit our modern times again her words we protect and preserve the constitution as is. Now if Trump dies we get Pence not bad If Hillary dies we get Cain hmmmmm choice is yours but I believe there is a difference

FOR Clinton:
- 30+ years of experience navigating US politics from the White House to the Senate and Secretary of State.
- Already has established political relationships with world leaders.
- Knows how to play the game (for good or for ill).

FOR Trump:
- Successful businessman - always looks at the bottom line and doesn't let emotion get in the way of "the deal."
- Has personal relationships with high-powered and influential people around the world - primarily business relationships that could be used for mutual benefit.

Trump will work to restore our country; clinton will finish obama's policy of destruction of the U.S. Here's a great reason to vote for Trump; Associate Supreme Court Justice Barack Hussain Obama. Hillary will appoint him; guarantee it because she owes him big time for protecting her during her email scandals.

In a number of ways, this election reminds me of the Spanish Civil War or the Eastern Front in WWII—Do you root for the Fascists or the Bolsheviks? Clinton has raised corruption to a level not seen since Nixon. In fact, given our experience with Clinton and her husband, I think we all owe Nixon an apology for the ways we demeaned him. Trump is a braggart, a bully and a blowhard; never mind embarrassing. He may (or may not be) a very successful business man, but as the Duke of Wellington once said about Napoleon, "His hat on the battlefield is worth ten thousand men, but he's no gentleman." I wish, like the story of the Kilkenny Cats, they would make each other disappear, but sadly that won't happen. I will go and cast my ballot for Trump because we hope he will not do the same things Clinton would, but before I vote I'll take a a double dose of my anti-nausea medicine.

I'l give it a shot, because she is the epitome of the establishment that we have given trust to run this country for over 12 years, and they failed. Time to think out of the box. Really we are at a point where we saw what doesn't work, and we have a choice, keep choosing what doesn't work, or try something new. Trump is something new, different, but new
