Why Should I Even Vote This Year?

     Your article came across good points because as a young generation we are finding that even the government it is a lie as well voting. The older generation is greater to know about politics than the young generation, as we have the “super delegates” the ones who decide where our votes to. Some of our votes can become useless and its bitter sweet to know that the entire struggle on voting for the one that is right for our nation they end up sending our votes to the one we did not wanted to vote in the first place. United States is not a democracy as it seems to appear but instead is an oligarchy that has been going on for decades. The rule of the rich over the poor describes our political system clearly.

     We can see that our votes are useless and the ones who are running for presidency are the rich wealthy people and advancing to the next round while the ones we want are in the bottom. The government is manipulative to tell everyone to vote and lie to people’s faces while the ones to choose for the people would be the delegates. Like Greg Mankiw's made a point "voting is a civic responsibility, they because democracy works best when everyone participates" is a national disgrace he said. 

      If our votes didn't matter in 2000 when it was the biggest turn out of the year why should it matter now, having to vote in the different states it could be 10 to the 200,708th power which you have the chance to win the jack pot than affecting the election's outcome. As a college student I clearly see that no matter who we vote for our votes will never count which is sad because as our generation is growing we would want a better government than the one the nation creates by having the wrong president in the United States. So if many people want to call the young generation ignorant because most of us don't vote, we can understand that our votes will never passed the super delegates because them being in control they choose whoever they want as a president, and all the hopes for a better government are crush and we are left I voted but I don't know what happen? The article Don't vote makes good points why America is the way it is.

Why Violence ?

In the article, LA times "Trump protesters, Mexican flag waves could bring unintended consequences for GOP race" Many people from Hispanic heritage as well as some immigrants took over the streets of Costa Mesa to protest against Trump. Every time Trump makes appearances on cities, we find a peculiar thing that is violence. Even thou Trump encourage violence and anger on people by arguing the topic of immigration which can show that he is very ignorant to judge people by their color only focusing on the bad instead of what immigration has done by making a growing number in the United States.
Many people from Costa Mesa came out waiving the Mexican flag, which there is no bad meaning because it only represents diversity that the United States has which is beautiful. For Donald Trump having to talked negative things about immigration can only make California one of the largest city for voting be against Trump because the population in California it's a large Latino population.
Which they are against Trump not only a decade ago sadly half a million immigrants and the people who supported them walked on the streets of Los Angeles to denigrate federal bills that would criminalize helping out immigrants with food or medical services.
  Having issues like this can only bring Hispanic people together to fight against discrimination and to protest with every nationality flag to show how diverse is the United States and having Trump or people discriminating illegal people can only cause more violence. That is what Trump would be looking for to make people go against each other and cultivate hate so the violence could grow and the ones for blame would be the minorities.
