O knihe

Scientific Essay from the year 2017 in the subject Politics - International Politics - Region: USA, grade: 1,3, Academy for Design Cologne, language: English, abstract: In this paper analysis of the candidates of the 2016 presidential elections in the United States will be performed. Firstly, an outline the political system in the United States and how the presidential elections take place will be created. Then their respective biographies, opinions and goals on 2016's key issues, campaigns and popularity will be taken into account, followed by a comparison of the two candidates based on the previous findings, and a conclusion.

On November 8th, 2016, the 45th President of the United States of America was elected. The Republicans nominated billionaire and business man Donald Trump while the Democrats were counting on Hillary Clinton as the first female presidential candidate in the history of the United States. Clinton and Trump have both been public figures for decades - Clinton as a livelong politician and Trump as an unconventional billionaire. The contrast between the two candidates could not have been bigger.

According to a Washington Post-ABC News poll from May 2016, the presidential race between Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump was a competition between two candidates viewed unfavorably by a majority of the electorate. The voters' motivation was mostly to vote against the candidate they dislike rather than voting in favor of the person they wanted to lead them (Balz, Clement 2016).
As the leader of a country that has the ability to shape the world, the American president can be named the most powerful person on the planet. Therefore, the presidential elections do not only affect the United States itself but also a fair amount, if not every other country in the world.
