America’s 2016 presidential election is something that seems to have never occurred in the US before. This nation as already ran through multiple systems to have failed to meet the standards of the public and better this country, but for the last six years, there has been almost no progression. The people for America are now looking and pleading for a system ran by a president who will be bring reassurance and simplicity to this entire situation. This year also seems to stray away from past elections because the public interest seems to no longer feed from the idea of social network revolutions, but, in fact, it seems to have the opposite effect. The 2016 presidential election is to be finalized in January when votes of the Electoral College, that are cast in december, are counted by a join session of Congress. Up until then, this year’s election process presents multiple candidates, from both the Democratic and Republican party, strategically setting up their campaign and presenting their stance on various issues in hopes of winning the favor of the public and convincing voters that they are what America has lacked the essence of for six years.

I believe Hilary Clinton will be the final ticket for the Democratic party, and, while the Republican party seems to face a year of unpredictability, I predict the Republican’s presidential nominee to be Marco Rubio. Hilary Clinton readiness is combined with an immense team of practical personnel, intensively working to avoid the same mistakes she made last time around — almost guaranteeing her cruise to victory in the Democratic party. She already seems to bask in the aura of inevitability. It seems who will come out of at least one of the parties — no need for any great perspicacity. She recovers from her issues, such as with the terrain of federal indictments in connect with her private email server, so swiftly. While glorifying the Democratic party’s advantages on demographics and issue, she overcomes her own deficiencies as a candidate. She also knows just how to appeal to the public. On the other hand, the Republican party upholds a big question mark this year. They seem to be opting for a candidate who simply has the chance of winning a national election - the more moderate, electable choice. Marco Rubio is the more plausible choice. There was always a division between the needs of the community and Republican establishment. “Grass Roots” conservatives always clashed heads with an establishment Republican. It is difficult to please these conservatives because they are almost opting for anything that has to do in their favor, and with so many individuals with different needs, meeting this standard might almost be impossible. What Marco Rubio does, however, is close that division between Republican Establishment and grassroots conservative individuals. Gaining the favor, or lessening the hatred, of that minority will even be essential. The number of republicans running this year might present an issue, but despite the large numbers, Rubio doesn’t fail to differentiate from the rest because of his knowledge; he is prepared to discuss almost any issue. In the most simple terms, Rubio has political talent. Answering questions fluidly and approaching all attacks towards him tactically, he is by far the best Republican speaker and holds a real ability to inspire. Marc Rubio is most in touch with modern American culture. This characteristic places him as the top Republican candidate, even if his poll numbers do not show it yet, and the only one, who I believe, could possibly place a threat to Hilary Clinton.

The most important domestic issue remains the discussion over health care, while the most important foreign issue I believe are those concerned with war on terrorism. Hilary supports free or low-cost government controlled health care, a core democratic principle. She encourages universal health care, promising that there is a system to make it all affordable. Rubio supports competitive, free market health care system, where health care is more privatized. He believes the problem of uninsured individuals should be addressed and solve within the free market — the government should not control healthcare. He believes Obama Care stifles entrepreneurship. They both take moderately the same stance on war on terrorism, encouraging what needs to be done when it gets to the point of necessity. However, Marc Rubio freely discusses future plans or confronting and defeating ISIL, while Hilary mentions that future plans or “hypotheticals” should not be discussed.

It appears almost obvious that Hilary Clinton will take on the White House. The Republican presidential candidates have not built their campaigns on offering conservative ideas that would give any direct help to families trying to make ends meet. Their tax-cut proposals are almost all focused on people who make much more than the average voter. So far, Republicans do not seem to be even trying to erode the Democratic advantage on middle-class economics, giving the democratic party the favor of a large group of people. Eighteen states (242 of the 270 electoral votes) have voted Democratic in the last six elections, giving Hilary Clinton the benefit of the doubt. The approach Clinton and her party seem to be taking is warming the public to her personally. She will undoubtedly be the final ticket for the Democratic party, and to win the ultimate vote, all it would take is to swing voters by proving to them that she will do more than a Republican candidate who is “out of touch” with most of the people’s concerns.
