*DISCLAIMER: MY PRESIDENTIAL PREDICTION - YOUR CONCERN*

MY PRESIDENTIAL PREDICTION: MY FEAR


i once quoted that I would exercise my right to vote this coming election year, but I don't know if I should vote seeing the candidates that will be available this election. I haven't had the time to follow this election year, but I have enough of an idea to know what is going on - I wish I was able to follow a little bit more closely seeing I am limited in technology right now. However, I not the one to follow the status quo. For example, when Mitt Romney was the Republican Presidential Candidate - most Mormons voted for him because he is Mormon - I didn't vote for him; and chose to vote for Barack Obama - even though I am a registered Republican. Though it is disheartening to say, the least, I think Donald Trump is going to be the president this 2017. How did I come to this conclusion?


Placing aside current polls, and crazy antics, Donald Trump has had a following for president since the early 1990s. If anybody has read his books especially the book called: "The America We Deserve", which came out in the early 2000s, he has described the current state of America; and how he could change the United States of America. It describes in detail the political issues America faced then - just before the 9/11 attack. Though it has been over 10 years since I have read the book, he has a charismatic approach towards creating America a great country; well aware of the political issues that America faces. Since some of Trump's books has been addressed to making America great again, it has caused many of his followers to increase for quite some time - growing in numbers over the last two decades. Though I support Donald Trump as a business person, I do NOT support him as president.


Again, I predict that Donald Trump will be president. Does anybody agree that Trump will be president this election - placing your personal feelings aside? If not, who do you think will be president this coming election; and why? I am interested in everyone's viewpoints, and I do respect them!


Interesting fact: 

Since Dwight D. Eisenhower's time (over 60 years ago), the presidents have alternated between parties from Democrat to Republican - I am not counting presidents that have served two terms. Since history has shown it, there bears a further conclusion that the public tends to follow the times and status quo of what they want rather than what the people need.


For example,
  • After World War II, Dwight D. Eisenhower got the vote because he was a war hero - serving as one of the primary generals during World War II. 
  • The economy went sour allowing Reagan to enter the White House. 
  • 9/11 struck, and the public chose George W. Bush, a Republican. Just these examples alone show that the public goes by what it wants rather than what it needs. 

Are you "the" public?

This is my fear. Your concern. Choose wisely.
