I find it disappointing that these two are our choices.

Obviously this is a hot topic but I don't get into political discussions online

Oh, Steve!  I won't go there!  It'll be fun to see the answers of those who do, however!

I am going to place my vote on which candidate, in my opinion, has the stronger leaadership skills and political savvy to lead our country and be a leader in the world. Our President needs skillful finesse, diplomacy, and respect for others as well as from others. I think Clinton and Trump are both lacking in some skills and I hope at least one of them chooses a vice presidential candidate that balances his/her own skill set. 

Hillary Clinton will be better for the economy. Foreign governments, politicians, investors, economists, and many successful business people are scared of Trump. Globalization and trade agreements are a net positive; all his talk about canceling them and erecting tariffs may not be for real, but if he does carry through with his threats, the recession we just climbed out of will return and be even worse.

Hidden in Hillary's agenda will be the price to be paid and it is not "people" centered or favored but leans toward big, private interests instead. Trump will buck all systems and shake things up and it is my hope that he is guided by the ghosts of Americas founding fathers and behaves himself and does great things. I find both distasteful, inadequate and for such a great country as the USA, a big let down.

Not a topic of conversation for discussion online. 

I do usually do not express my political views on ActiveRain. 

I see neither being beneficial to MY ECONOMY.

I lose either way.

I will vote for the loser that has the most in common with my values. These in-common points are few and far between, but if one of them gets the jail term they earned, my choice will be easier

.

 Not igniting the powder keg, but sure as the sun rising, you are poking the beehive.

I do not believe this is the place for this type of discussion and I have no skin in the game!

In the interest of Weltanschauung, I say...-zip-....

Too many people expressing opinions, so I will stay on the side lines!

Not going there myself

Did you just say Hillary is conservative? As i clean up my breakfas i just spit out, she would not know conservative if she deleted it. There is no doubt Trump is a great business man. I do have concerns about things he says and does not being conservative either. I am not an avid supporter so i have to look to see who the lesser of 2 evils is. Hillary has no trust, lies, then lies about the lies, makes up stories to cover said cover up lies. A savior that is better than these 2 is not coming.

It is a very interesting and crazy election....but I do not understand those who would go for Mrs. Clinton.... 

Not going to get into that here

I think you are in fact getting political.

My comments won't solve any of the issues, so I will just read everyone elses comments.  We'll see what happens in November.

I won't go there either.  Some things I just don't discuss. Politics is one of them.

Desperate times call for desperate measures.  The really bad news is, it is apparent those are our only two choices and one of them will win.  God help us!

see what happens

I don't know that the President has that much authority anymore to sway the economy. Now put the Congress on the side of the President and you may see some action.

Steve - Either way, I have to say that I am a little nervous about what will happen. Thank goodness there are a lot of other people and departments that help control the presidents decision making.

I do not discuss politics with clients or online.

I'm not happy with either choice. 

...not the right forum, albeit an interesting discussion topic.

Mum's the word at my end. I don't make political or religious pronouncements on any public social media site.

Steve, I don't answer political questions on publicly accessible questions.  You never know when someone won't want to work with you because of who you supported in the election...

I do not know the answer to that question, though I always have an opinion!  That being said, I know not to state my opinion on anything these days, as a realtor Steve Snyder.  I've learned early to 'zip it', because I could be offending anyone with almost any comment - HA! 

parked and reading...

Steve Snyder - let me rephrase the question - choosing between devil and the deep sea, correct?
