In this presidential election, most voters seem to firmly support one candidate or the other. Few can think of a positive thing to say about the candidate that they oppose. However, Matt Stopera at BuzzFeed found some people who were willing to take on the challenge. He questioned students at Lynn University, where the third presidential debate took place Monday evening, asking them to name one thing they liked about their opposing candidate. Here are some of the most interesting answers.
