The Iowa caucus is an election held by which the people in Iowa,
who get to sit down and talk to the presidential candidates, just to hear what
their plan is for vie the title of president. It is a very local, personal
interview-style pitch of what the prospects plan to bring to the table. There
are no absenteeism votes, only these gatherings of the candidates, speaking to
the people at the local places in town. Mrs. Cara Carleton Fiorina is one of
our Republican prospects for the presidency in 2016. She hails from Austin,
Texas and is married to Frank Fiorina. She does not have biological children
but has two step-daughters from her current marriage. She has a B.A in Philosophy
and Medieval History from Stanford University, a Masters of Business
Administration from the University of Maryland and a Master’s of Science from
the MIT Sloan School of Management. She became chief executive office for HP in
July 1999, but was forced to resign due to issues with the Executive Members. She served as an adviser to Senator John McCain’s 2008
presidential campaign. She won the Republican nomination for State Senate for California
but lost the general election. In her
running for 2016 title of President of the USA, she did not fair very well in
the Iowa Caucus, gaining only 1.9% of the votes (according to USA Today). She
also was cut from a very important debate in New Hampshire. Despite the low
numbers, she states she will continue her journey. She currently serves as Chair
of a non-profit organization, Good360. She has many different topics to be
addressed, for example, the 2nd Amendment. She states of current
government policy is trying to do away with it. She accuses the democratic
party of “politicizing” tragedies that happen due to gun violence, stating that
nothing they do will prevent that type of tragedy from happening. She also
feels strongly about the way education is being handled in this country. She
stated “In the last 40 years, the quality of education has deteriorated.” She
also said the spending going on in the Department of Education has nothing to
do with the quality of education. She also plans as president to address
national spending and the deficit. She states the Zero Act will “required
agencies to justify what their spending” and what that means for taxpayers.
