4. I think campaign finance reform is a huge crying need in this country and I don't think Clinton will address it directly because her ties to Wall Street are too tight. Trump is not going to address it either. At least Clinton gives the issue some lip service, whereas Trump has never said anything about campaign finance reform. Further, Clinton will appoint SCOTUS judges who are more likely to uphold any future campaign finance reform efforts, while Trump will put up more Alito types who have no problem with gazillionaires stuffing the political system with as much Super PAC cash as possible. Clinton clearly wins on this point.
I'm pretty much a single issue voter this election, and for me it's that the next president will appoint at least one and more likely 2 or 3 USSC justices. I want a democrat, any democrat, doing that to drive a final nail into the conservative social platform.
