2016 Election: A Breakdown of the Candidates
In an election year that appears to be anything but conventional, voters may have slightly better clarity on Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton and where they stand on key issues following the conclusion of the two major political party conventions. Differences in economic policies of Clinton and Trump mostly follow along party lines and viewpoints about the role of government. Clinton proposes a measured agenda. It is one that offers change, but without revamping the existing system and without throwing aside longstanding practices such as staying within budget constraints.
