The Presidential Election 2016

As the National Presidential Debate is coming to an end, these three candidates have been working diligently to prepare for their big debate that took place on November 3rd, 2016. All of the candidates did a phenomenal job and brought up great points on important issues that are significantly impacting today's society. Topics included Economy, Race Relations, Common Core Educational Curriculum, Obamacare, Gun Control, Immigration and Religion in Schools. There is no denying that these three did extensive research in an attempt to further educate and prepare themselves for their big day.

While there are many similarities between the three, there are also very distinct differences. One example of this was noted during the discussion concerning the Second Amendment, where Mr. Filep felt that more restrictions should be put into place to limit gun ownership. Mr. Southard expressed that there should simply be stricter punishment for individuals using guns in the act of committing a crime. Finally, Mr. Ennis pointed out that the use of knives and stabbings are more prevalent than gun injuries stating, "We can't possibly take away all the knives; how would we butter our toast?"

All jokes aside; each candidate brought a unique perspective to the issues plaguing our society and left most viewers questioning their own personal stance on today's most important issues.
