I Side With
October 4, 2016
We debate a lot of things in our day to day life. What shoes would go with what shirt? Do your nails match your outfit? Is that book better than the movie? These are all questions we ask.
However, when it comes to politics, things can get a little complicated. With the passing of the recent presidential debate, I have found many people are undecided on which candidate to go with. This could be because Hillary Clinton’s outfits make you want to barf, or perhaps the faces Donald Trump makes are awkward or idiotic.
This is where “I Side With” comes in. This website is designed to help you figure out which candidate would be best for you. The great thing about it is that it is not based on whether or not Hillary’s outfit was on point for that one meeting, or if Donald Trump’s hair looked like it was on edge during an interview. It goes off of things that actually matter. It covers issues from social to economic, including issues with domestic and foreign policy, healthcare and criminal issues.
A helpful tool available is the ability to rank the questions themselves. If social issues aren’t as important to you as healthcare, you can state that, and it may change who you side with. There is also a feature that allows you to learn more about each question. You are also able to see public opinion and see which side of the argument more people are siding with. However, don’t let that stop you from raising your own voice. It’s always good to go through the facts and make your own stance rather than being swayed by others, whether it be a parent, sibling, or even a boyfriend/girlfriend. So if you need help figuring out who to vote for this coming election, check out “I Side With” and see who is best for you!
