No matter who wins

the presidential vote
in
America
on
coming November 8,
it has exposed the
Americans to a tough
choice
between
Democrat
Hillary
Clinton
and
Republican Donald J
Trump who are
characterised
by
vulgarity
and
insanity,respectively.
By all hints, next
month's election to
choose a successor to
President
Barack
Obama, a democrat,
has brought disgrace

paraded by voters as a sex manic who himself confessed to groping and touching women
'inappropriately'andaudaciouslyasabusinesstycoonandpolitician.
On the other hand, apparently 'clean faced' Hillary is facing odds as spy agency Wiki leaks has
released volumes of documents regarding Hillary's inappropriate activities as Secretary of State,
which include illegal financial transactions and her link with the dreaded militant outfit Islamic
State(IS).
