\u201cCheaper textbooks honestly, or like, some way to help students buy textbooks. I mean, textbooks are pretty much half of your credit and tuition fees, so, it\u2019s very expensive. I rent mine, but I\u2019d like to be able to keep it, because most of the classes I have right now I can use the same textbook for the next semester, and sometimes textbooks you can\u2019t write on.”<\/p>\n

“I really don\u2019t know, but I think decision-making is number one. I remember I read, I watched the news about how he couldn\u2019t help that small island\u2026Puerto Rico? He says something about ‘Oh, it\u2019s a small island’, that he couldn\u2019t help them. So I wish he would put a little more effort in helping them instead of making excuses.”<\/p>\n

\u201cI would like to see him make good decisions, that actually help the country in the long run. To make something more fair\u2026like, taxes, because I heard that he changed taxes to make taxes for corporations less.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cReally? He\u2019s just so unpredictable. Well, he\u2019s predictably unpredictable, you know what I mean? We all know that he\u2019s going just say whatever he wants, and he\u2019s going to get us into some trouble somewhere along the line. Especially with the nuclear\u2026what happened last Saturday with the ballistic missiles. He\u2019s going to say something to upset somebody. But I have faith in our military, and I have faith in the forces protecting us, so I\u2019m not too worried about it. But I know he\u2019s got some big plans that a lot of people aren\u2019t excited about, and I am a little worried about what\u2019s happening with the Health Care Act, the CHIP, and with education in general. It\u2019s really sad to see a lot of the things, and the way people are speaking towards education right now. So I really hope it\u2019s going to be a good second year, but we all have to cross our fingers and just pray a little harder.\u201d<\/p>\n

“It\u2019s not really an expectation, but of course, peace and positive relationships with other countries, and safety for everyone, I guess.”<\/p>\n
