As a presidential candidate
He is without doubt a the biggest "most beautiful" Buffoon to run for president ever. He is the master of double talk, yet the masses are too stupid to see it. Including Dave and Pete, stupidity must run deep in the republican…
While it should be no surprise that Sanders, who stands behind a podium with the White House seal and regularly lies to and misinforms the American people, would borrow a line from an average cat caller on the street, it is doubly upsetting for another reason: Sanders is only the third woman to serve as White House press secretary. But let's recall that her job is basically to justify the actions and/or deflect accusations away from a man who was infamously heard, loud and clear on tape, boasting that serial sexual assault was a perk of his "star" status. Regardless of how much harm or harassment a person consciously intends to cause a woman by using it, the request itself assumes that women owe the world -- and principally men -- something.…
“There I was, getting ready to argue my very first contested case, and it's before the United States Supreme Court. I'll never forget the morning of oral arguments. I got up really early and headed over to put the last touches on my argument. There was a sense of majesty, walking up those stairs, my steps echoing on the marble. I went to the lawyers' lounge — to go over my argument.…
In an interview, Donald John Trump, an American businessperson and a Republican candidate running for president, specified: “ The immigrants are bringing drugs, they’re bringing crime, and they’re rapists. It’s coming from Mexico. It’s coming from the south and Latin America and it’s coming, probably, from the Middle East, but we don’t know because we have no protection.” As a result of the immigrants coming into America, Trump wants to create the immigration plan. If Trump’s plan is carried out, the Mexicans would be unauthorized to enter America because of the “great great wall,” possible recessions and riots would take place, and all illegal immigrants including the birthright citizens will be forced to leave America.…
Ask an average teenager what they know about sexual assault, and they may refer to “locker room talk” or dramatized rape scenes in movies. It is misconceptions like these that can drive a victim further into seclusion, because their situation is so unknown to the average person, leaving them in solitary. In the United States alone, one in five women and one in seventy-five men will be raped at some point throughout their lifetime, yet only 37% of these incidents are reported to authorities (Department of Justice 1). There are many factors that contribute to this, but one major reason this occurs is that victims feel as if they are on one's own and lack someone to assist them in their time of need.…
For a example, during the election a video was released of a conversation between Trump which he made about women. According to CNN second debate, Trump said “when you’re a star, they let you do it," Trump says in the recording. "You can do anything." he described kissing women without consent, grabbing their genitals. Bragging about sexual assaulting women.…
I believe Hilary Clinton won the final presidential debate. Clinton’s performance was more persuasive than Trump’s because she spoke with sophistication and intelligences. This country can go in two directions. The first way is up, with Clintons ideas and views I believe our country can become great and everything from trade to economy can thrive. The second way is down, with Trumps and his ideas to build a wall to keep immigrants out and his lack of commence sense and human decency.…
Politically we live in a quite polarizing time. Between the two viable presidential candidates and an equal amount of dissatisfaction of those candidates on both sides, the fate of this country is seemingly up in the air. Though the election holds a discernable amount of media coverage and attention of the public every term the media coverage of this particular election has been dominated by the hateful rhetoric and call to violence of a particular candidate. The candidate calling for this violence is Donald Trump, he on multiple occasions has called for violence against protesters telling his audience how he would like to see them “punched or maimed”. Encouraging his supporters to do so by promising to cover their legal fees if they get arrested…
Everyday people view articles and stories that are produced by the media. Just one event can create hundreds of different stories explaining the event. Each type of media and each company produces a different story. It is so hard to distinguish which articles are telling the truth and which ones aren’t. The hardest articles to see the truth in are ones involving politics or large scale world issues.…
Some say Ben Carson is so naive about some specific policies; he should not be president. Just because he is inexperienced, does not mean Carson thinks he should not worry about foreign policy. Carson wants to be up to date on what the army is doing and should do. Carson has said in an interview he is working hard to read up, so he can learn all he should to be a knowledgeable president (Levine). Finally, people may say Ben Carson should not be president because he is bias with his religious views.…
Locker-room talk has been a highly debated subject in the media recently, mainly due to statements recorded several years ago between now Presidential hopeful, Donald Trump and former NBC television host, Billy Bush. This topic has spurred dialogue questioning the appropriateness of locker room talk. One might argue that such discussions are harmless while others feel the behavior is demeaning to women and men. I played sports during high school and my husband played football at the collegiate level and neither of us experienced locker-room talk at the level highlighted in the recent press. I selected this topic to ask, at what point does one determine where do we draw the line?…
In the article, “When all news is ‘fake’, whom do we trust?” the author Ruth Marcus writes from an interesting point of view about the media. Her article provides no biasness and only gives facts about the media and the society at large. She leaves the begging question as to whether the media should or should not be trusted by the society to the reader of the article. She provides facts to support her article, the technique of the author’s delivery is established as formal.…
I strongly believe that racial profiling does still exist today because people discriminate whether it be your skin color, ethnic background and the stereotypes follow along with it. Racial profiling is targeting individuals for suspicion of crime. Racial profiling is based on your ethnicity,color of skin,religion or national origin. Racial profiling is all around. It is at restaurants,parks, schools, you will most likely see on the news or maybe even when you are walking somewhere.…
Domestic tranquility in the United States is outlined by the Constitution and can be better understood as the way in which society lives in harmony (Wilson). Unfortunately, society has not reached a state of tranquility yet. This can be traced to ideas of racism, sexism, and other means of discrimination in the United States. Although some strides have been made to try and counteract these modes of discrimination, society has recently taken a step back in its development towards a tranquil state. Specifically, the rhetoric used by Donald Trump has been linked to ideas of racism and sexism.…
Stephen Dunn’s “Locker Room Talk” takes the reader through Dunn’s personal experiences as he listened to other guys’ stories about girls throughout his life. His memories start from when he was young, at around twelve or thirteen, when an older boy named Frankie talked about having sex with a girl and introduced him to pornography in the school yard where he felt “Wonderment. Not wonderful.” Later on, when he got more experience under his belt, the wonderment that he felt was substituted by embarrassment although he did not know if he was embarrassed for the girl being spoken about, the guy telling the story or himself as the listener. During college while at the locker room he heard a guy explain, purposely loud enough so the whole room…
