Making History Defeating Trump

The difference between the 45th president and the 46th is that the next president won't have a free pass to lie to America. He or she won't be motivated by financial gain, or have the innate ability to mobilize, or embolden racists every time he opens his mouth or sends out a tweet. The next president will have the temperament of a true leader and will lead by example. He will understand that words matter, especially during times of uncertainty and unrest. He will not abuse his power, or stand in the way of justice because he knows that no one is above the law, not even the president.
He or she won't use our adversaries as political pawns in our elections, take sides with Russia, or signify, belittle or take revenge out on his opposers.
"The next president will have my vote, because he believes that this country is great because of our diversity, not in spite of it."
He won't view the free press as an enemy of the people, but rather a voice for the people. He will inspire us through his humanity and moral conscience which will guide every decision that he or she makes. I pray that the next president can unite this country, and change things for the betterment for all Americans despite our differences. Finally, the next president should be someone all Americans can be proud of because he has integrity, and will defend anyone's right to protest in silence against social injustice. The next president won't have to worry about being on the right side of history, because the next president--will make it.
