I think being President of the United States is the most challenging job there is. And just when the President thinks they are doing a good job, something they had no idea existed suddenly pops up and smacks them silly.

It is one of those rare jobs where nobody is really qualified to do it until they start doing it. So you hope you elect someone who has a good head on their shoulders and will surround themselves with good people who give them good advice and information and they will make good decisions.
You also have to asses their personality and demeanor so you can guess how they will deal with leaders of other countries. With Hillary we know a lot about how she behaves politically, but Trump is a total wild card so we have to dig into his past. See what he has done and who he has associated with in order to hopefully gain some insight into how he might be in office.
