With new faces, US election 2016 is likely to pop up surprises
What is it with the US Presidential elections in 2016 that world media is going bonkers over it? We say, it is for the world's most powerful country and the presidential head could well decide the fate of many countries dependent on it for finance, economy and employment.
With all eyes on the Presidential campaign and the way it is proceeding, it can be observed that the elections would be a little more than unusual.
The candidates come from varied backgrounds and different professions, nothing like the previous elections where the participants had prior political history.
