Time For a Third Party Choice?

So here we are, apparently after a contentious primary season nears the end, Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton will square off in the November election. Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton. I have serious mixed emotions about "The Donald". On one hand, he is a refreshing change from the same old political insider crap that has plagued us for decades. On the other hand, he is Donald Trump. Big mouth, shoot from the hip without thinking, insult you until you cry, Donald Trump. His business interest are mainly in America so his claims of wanting to strengthen our working class and economy probably ring true. He certainly doesn't back down from a fight which is good in itself but only to a point. When it comes to the international platform, he is going to have to learn to use more diplomacy than big hammer politics. While we are a leader in the world, we still need to consider the rest of the world and it's needs. He will have to work on his diplomacy a bit more. Not that he shouldn't keep speaking what he feels is honesty, he just needs to temper how he puts it out there. The Republican voters have spoken and said that they are tired of more of the same, but is Donald the right change? I'm not totally convinced of that.

Now on the flip side, apparently the Democrat voters are simply not interested enough as a whole to change things. They prefer overall to let things plod along as usual. Here's Hillary who has a history of "misspeaking", who has this cavalier attitude about using a private email for highly classified information, who refuses to acknowledge that the investigation into the email situation is just that, an investigation. Her ties to Wall Street are deep, and we all know Wall Street helped to create the debacle of 2008 which leads me to question her choice of economic adviser, her husband, who signed NAFTA and the repealing of Glass Steagall which also helped to contribute to the same debacle even though he blames it all on the Republicans. She has been on the wrong side of history on social issues until public opinion has become so great that she jumps on board, also known as flip flopping. She outright lied to the families of the Benghazi victims and the American public about the cause of attack while knowing the truth hours after it happened. Those same emails she's "not" being investigated for have proven that fact. She actually seems like the most Republican Democrat I can think of.

All of this leads me to wonder who really should I vote for? A hot headed big mouth or a openly corrupt career politician? I'm sure as hell not voting for the latter, and not sure I'm comfortable yet with the former. So now that leaves me looking towards libertarians and if they can muster up someone who will make a respectable run for the office. If we are going to have real change, it has to be either Trump, or a third party candidate. I'll keep my eyes on the libertarians for awhile to see what they come up with.
