Everyone in the UK is voting for Trump?

Both Hillary's and Trump's presidency will have the same amount of apocalypse as the Obama presidency. I really don't give a **** which one gets in since I don't like either of them (for different reasons) but I'm not willing to give them a helping hand.

How about some substance to back up this statement?

How about some substance to back up this assertion that his presidency was such a failure?

I'm not saying that it was anything of the sort.

Along with the assemblymen and possibly senate seats depending on your district. If you don't pay attention to state politics. I feel like that is what you should spend your time researching more than presidential candidates.
That's also what I've been doing. But, I still focus on the presidential candidates to form my opinions about them.

Pardon? Pretty sure we've seen more success in Obama's presidency than we've seen in the last 15 years.

That would be the point, gentlemen.

There was a lot of talk about Obama being an absolute disaster and it didn't turn out that way. Even if Trump does get in, he's going to be fighting a congress using obstruction tactics that have become so popular recently. It's just going to be business as usual, even if a lot of the cogs in the system are rotten.

That's more the problem I have with people's view on Hillary. While I now don't really necessarily see a point in voting third party, people think that if Hillary is elected she'll have the power to change anything. Obama spent 8 years trying to get congress to listen, and they didn't. They're now not going to listen because the first female is president, if anything, that'll cause them to listen even less.

Also, the use of the word apocalypse made me think you were saying something negative, hence my confusion with your initial post.

You are looking for sources? Here you go.

At first I was going to go through and make a laundry list of her failures but it's fine. Five will do and I'll let you read it because I'm way too lazy for that.
