"Rubio joins presidential race, takes swipe at Clinton" Brett Akop
"Sen. Marco Rubio cast himself as the forward-looking candidate to lead the nation toward a new American century when he announced his presidential bid Monday, framing the election as a "generational choice" for Americans." Rubio chooses to go on the attacking end regarding his campaign's announcement, immediately criticizing Clinton's involvement in the running. Candidates in next years election are already taking advantage of certain diplomatic connections (Jeb Bush) and advancements in technology. Similar to the election of 1960, this election already started as a brutal and critical campaign with valid candidates from the start. Although the age gap is quite different in the 2016 election, both candidates show promise and this proves to be a tight race.

There is no way that Americans can let the protege of Jeb Bush of all people be elected President in 2016. This race is shaping up to be comparable to the 1960 election, when the progressive ideals of Kennedy beat out the backward thinking Nixon policies.
