~Examining the election issues and the candidates helped me learn and understand a lot about the topics. I learned that their are more than two candidates. I thought that only Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton were running for president. I also didn't know that there were so many issues that the candidates had to have there opinions on. Giving my own opinion on the election helped me understand about a lot of the issues the US has. Minimum wage is an issue I learned about. I learned that the government might be hiring minimum wage and that some people don't agree with bringing up the amount of minimum wage. There were also several other things i learned by examining the election issues and candidates but these are some of the ones that stuck really well in my mind.
