Humberto Mendez Prince/Staff Writer Political religion can be described as a belief system that relies primarily on the fanaticism its followers have towards a specific political party or candidate. Other aspects that can better describe politically religious individuals are the demonization of opposing political views, unwavering denial of a political loss and a blind disposition […]
Mia Petruccelli/Contributing Writer I still remember the moment I found out that Donald Trump won the election in 2016. Attentiveness to politics was fairly new to me since I had just recently turned 18. I was excited, exhilarated, yet overwhelmingly terrified. I engaged in conversations with my peers, read articles, watched debates and encouraged the […]
Fernando Fernández/Staff Writer Ladies & gentlemen, habemus praesidens. Former Vice President Joseph R. Biden Jr. has been elected the 46th President of the United States of America and Donald J. Trump has officially been made a one-term President. Seems like pretty good news for the Democrats, right? They have once again captured the presidency and […]
Julia Gomez/Staff Writer Latinos, from Cubans to Mexican, are all different with each demonstrating a unique preference for music, cuisine and even holidays.

If Democrats want to get the Cuban vote, they need […]
Sergey Podlesnykh/Staff Writer On Saturday morning we finally got a call in the tight 2020 Presidential race that made history; Joe Biden was announced the 46th President of the United States.

Julia Gomez/Staff Writer When we think of the 2020 election, we often think of the Presidential election. But it’s so much more than that! This year there are six amendments for Floridians to vote on. While they’re all important, of the most significant is Amendment 2. It’s deciding if we should raise Florida’s minimum wage […]
Sergey Podlesnykh/Staff Writer The final Presidential debate was undoubtedly the strongest one. The first erratic face-off provided few answers, and the dueling town halls last week lacked a confrontational edge. Thursday night finally delivered a discussion that can be labeled as both “Presidential” and a “debate”. Here’s a few keynotes that might sway the voters […]
Sergey Podlesnykh/Staff Writer Much like the screaming of two siblings who won’t stop fighting, America had to separate incumbent President Donald Trump and Democratic contender Joe Biden in an attempt to hear both sides of the story. Unlike the first Presidential debate, the second reunion of the political candidates was cancelled after President Trump refused […]
Julia Gomez/Staff Writer On September 17, 2020, the Women for Trump rally took place in the middle of a shopping center in Kendall. But based on the individuals and the message of the event, it was safe to say this quickly spiraled into a “Latinos for Trump” rally. People gathered to welcome Lara Trump to […]
Sergey Podlesnykh/Staff Writer After the first Presidential debate answered few questions about either candidate’s program for the next four years, my expectations for the Vice-Presidential debate were unreasonably high.
