Overcome power of media, other politic parties, sexual scandals, frauds, private life issues and secrets.

Jack Stanton – it is really hard to define this guy. It looks like he cares about people, he always meet with people, enjoys to be with people, but on the other hand, he lies about everything. He plays this game, and for him everything presents a way to get on the president spot. From political side, he really does a great job, but on ethical side this doesn’t look right at all. Also, during this time of elections, Jack changes his views and ideas about the politics. He understands that if he wants to get that president spot he’ll have to do all the dirty stuff and go “negative” on other polticians. But at the end of the movie he changes and uses the material against Picker anyway, no morality, no ethics, everything changed. Even at the end of the movie, I struggled to understand Jack’s personality.

    The presidential election of 2016 and the presidential election of 1800 were two of the most divisive and partisan elections in the history of the United States, and many of the lessons learned from the election of 1800 have carried on through the years and become relevant to this election two hundred and sixteen years later. While the election of 2016 is widely regarded as unusual, the election of 1800 was also unusual in its time for some very similar reasons, and Edward J. Larson’s book, A Magnificent Catastrophe, describes that election in dramatic detail. Similarities between the two elections included rampant partisanship, divisions within parties, negative political attacks, and the occasional scandals, though the impacts of these were…

    The greatest men have overcome some of the most prominent situations in history but they have also been defeated by some. They could not be named the greatest without the trials they faced. Nelson Mandela overcame apartheid, Alexander the Great conquered the most belligerent fighters in war, and Martin Cooper made a wireless phone. Obstacles make a person stronger and provide them with the wisdom they need to triumph. In ‘Adventures of Huckleberry Finn’, Huck Finn is a motherless child and is trying to escape his drunk and abusive father, Hester Prynne in ‘The Scarlet Letter’ commits a sin so seemingly horrifying that she can now only live a life of public shame and loneliness, and Anthem’s Equality 7-2521 has a burning curiosity to know more than what is given to him which almost gets him killed.…

    “More than any other president of the century. . . Kennedy made his own personality an integral part of his presidency and a central focus of national attention” (Brinkley, 696). Kennedy wanted to create an image of a strong, intelligent, and vibrant leader, and he tried to use that image to help push reform through congress; however he was largely unsuccessful in this endeavor. He faced early rejection for some of his major ideas, but he was successful in raising the minimum wage and establishing the Peace Corps (“Domestic”). Even though President Johnson was similarly known for his personality in office, it was different from Kennedy’s personality.…

In “The Negative Consequences of Uncivil Political Discourse” Sandy Maisel states that the “lack of civility has led to the decline in citizen approval of trust in our institutions of government” (Maisel 405).
