Can Trump or Clinton become the Unifying voice of America
At this difficult time in America, it is clear that we need a strong leader, yet it is doubtful if either presidential nominee could be that person.

According to a New York Times article," No moment in the 2016 presidential campaign has cried out more for a unifying candidate that the police shootings of two black men last week and the ensuing national uproar, followed by the shocking sniper ambush that killed five police officers in Dallas.
"And no other moment has revealed more starkly how hard it is for Donald J. trump and Hillary Clinton to become that candidate.
"Never have two presidential nominees been as unpopular as Mr. Trump and Mrs. Clinton. And they are not fully trusted by their own parties … Mr. Trump… is also the political figure many people blame for sowing division and hatred with his attacks on illegal immigrants, Muslims, Mexicans and others. Rather than diffuse tension, he electrifies crowds and vanquishes rivals through provocations that he delights in calling politically incorrect.
"Of the two, Mrs. Clinton would seem more able…to try to bring the country together... Yet many on the right and some on the left dislike her intensely, and even her admirers say she lacks the …reputation for honesty to persuade large numbers of Americans to see things her way..."
According to the article's author Patrick Healy, other presidents have unified the country in items of crises "The current run of crises ( terrorism, mass shootings, police violence, social unease) has in the view of many democrats and Republicans, served only to spotlight the shortcomings of both Mr. Trump and Mrs. Clinton."
