The 2016 Presidential Election is a few weeks away. The 2016 race is one of the most controversial elections in recent years. Both primary candidates, Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump, stir strong emotions in the voters and both have very low approval ratings.

The election is important as the outcome will influence a number of issues and have a lasting effect on individuals and businesses for many years. A few of the issues include health care, the Supreme Court, taxes, international affairs, trade, and the economy. The complication for the issues is the question of trust and leadership skills of each candidate. Neither candidate has a clear advantage.

For the Midterm Assignment, write a 1,500 – 1,750 word paper comparing and contrasting the two candidates from the perspective of business. The paper should provide a recommendation for business to consider. The paper should follow the rubric (attached).
