    Building the Empire EJ LeClair Teacher: Kelly Sherman 11/4/2014 The America of the post Independence War was a very different place, New York State had been a loyalist strong hold during the war and this had diminished its standing in the newly formed nation. In 1810 Dewitt Clinton, the current mayor of New York City, had the insane idea to connect New York to Lake Erie via the Mohawk Valley the only western pass in the Appalachian Mountains. This seemingly delusional idea would require four surveyors to learn to build canals by building canals. Required the re-invention of hydraulic cement, and create the foundation for New York State to be the largest port in the new country, and later to earn the name Empire State.…

    As human beings we don’t have the luxury of being able to choose between becoming a male or a female, and regardless of what technology has to offer in the next generations to come it should stay that way. The idea of a man or women ever being more superior to another is an absolute disgrace to our society. In order for our country to function the way it does, men and women on a daily basis must work side by side under no restrictions. In all honesty, being a male I grew up not having to deal with all the sexism that goes on in a girls every day activities. I don’t blame the strong willed women for rebelling and going against the common stereotypes that are tagged against them, I would do the same.…

    My mother began outlining my future for me from the day I was born. She would tell me that I was destined for greatness and one day I would become the First Lady of the United States. But that never sat well with me because the title of First Lady meant one thing to me: a relinquishment of independence and opinion. It seemed demeaning because the position degraded intelligent women to trivial tasks such as picking which china and flower arrangements to display at a dinner party at the White House. While a First Lady is foremost a hostess, one woman radically changed the perception and outreach of the job.…

    Beginning with the death of Trayvon Martin in early 2012, the United States has started to acknowledge the way police mistreat citizens, particularly black people. With this “new”, rising topic, which the nation previously turned a blind eye to, people have also started to look at other issues that have disproportionately affected black Americans, such as mass incarceration. Mass incarceration is usually defined as the sharp increase of imprisoned individuals in the last forty years (200,000 in 1972 to 2.2 mil in 2010?). Although the government itself rarely addresses these problems, others have made it their mission to combat these injustices through social media, television, and speeches. Among those who have spoken out against the political mistreatment of black Americans is former First Lady Hillary Clinton.…

The first one is that Democrats had learned from the failure of Clinton plan and had adjusted their strategy so (Clinton, 1990s). The second one is that Obama benefited from a reform of consensus that had in some years leading up to 2009 and that had included some major interest in groups and Democratic Congressional leaders.…

    The worst president the United States ever had to been William Jefferson Clinton, commonly known as Bill Clinton, the 42nd president from 1993-2001.

That woman and children will be able to expand or get an education. That woman and girls will have protection. Hillary and Malala express and talk about these things because they feel women and children/girls should be treated equally.
