During the time period of 1786 through the 1800s, a lot of historical plans went into effect, which has shaped our nation today. In Chapter 8: The New Nation, plans of forming a brand new government had started mainly because of Whiskey’s and Shay’s rebellion. Each rebellion shed light on the extreme amount on taxes to the people, and it showed that the people needed some type of stability from the government. Three important men in chapter eight are George Washington, Alexander Hamilton, Thomas Jefferson, and John Adams. George Washington became the First President of the United States or America on April 30, 1739.…
Slogans are a type of vague sentence or statement that are typically used to convey a opinion or a goal. Due to the vagueness, they are not meant to be meaningless, rather they are typically easy to agree with but can later be found to be objectionable. Take for example Donald Trump's "Make America Great Again" slogan, we could replace the word "great" with "guess" and we would have a more accurate statement.…

Amarjit Singh Political Science The weekly article that I choose to read from the website ccn.com was called “Trump order construction of border wall, boost deportation force”. The article was about President Trump keeping his promise during his campaign to build a border wall to help keep illegal immigrants out of the United States. In addition, president Trump signed two executive orders enforcing the construction of a wall between Mexico and United States, while increasing the number of border patrol force to assist keeping illegal immigrant out of United States territory. The other executive order calls for the “stripping sanctuary cities” of federal grant funding that could make undocumented immigrant leave the country.…
Trump popularized the slogan by wearing hats bearing the phrase early in his campaign. Despite Trump trademarking the slogan, it has been utilized in verbalizations by other 2016 candidates, such as Ted Cruz and Scott Ambulator. He resurfaced this puissant yet simple message to let Americans ken that America can be great again. As they did Reagan in the 1980 elections, the same thing is verbalized about Trump that his message to simple that it is not just that facile to make America again. Many people have drawn Donald Trump and Ronald Regan starting with Trump himself, who habituated Reagan’s 1980 slogan “Let’s make America great again.”…
President Donald Trump’s platform is one that favors large corporations and will likely hurt the working class. His mantra “Make America Great Again” holds an underlying truth; he will only make corporate America great again. The hypocrisy of Donald Trump is becoming increasingly evident as he nominates members for the White House Cabinet. The president claims that he wishes to get rid of all the special interest groups and lobbyists in Washington, yet he places those exact people in his Cabinet.…
America the Beautiful There is only one solitary factor that makes us all Americans; that is what makes it so beautiful! We all rise from diverse cultures, have individual customs, and have particular standards. The belief that all American’s have the freedom to be whoever we want to be, to accomplish whatever we want to take on, and to believe in the American Dream in its simplest form, is what links us together. Having Faith in this idea, and being able to put our past behind us, is what it means to be an American.…
Analysis of Good Morning America When I was watching Good Morning America, they showed many disastrous images with interesting commentary of what is going on. From the nor’easter storm terrorizing the northeast, to Jared Kushner and the theories surrounding him and his conflicts of interest, GMA really lets you in on all the details. The first thing they talked about was of a nor’easter blowing wave after wave of water in the northeast with a high ninety-three mph wind speed shredding Massachusetts. Good Morning America also seemed to love reflecting on disasterous images like trees destroying houses and cars, and high snow levels of forty inches in Albany during the storm.…
Recently, rapper and producer T.I. made a statement that he will not vote for Hillary Clinton for president, because she is a woman. His statement became important in the news, because his opinion is shared with many people throughout the United States and the world. Many people stereotype women as being extremely over emotional and believe they have a tendency to make rash decisions. T.I. believes that they would permanently and negatively affect the United States. He also believes they would not be able to negotiate with other leaders over foreign policy, which seems to be a poor accusation, because there are women presidents in other countries that deal with foreign policy constantly.…
CriticalReflection of Regime of the Second George W. Bush The United States was involved in aiding to achieve an international set of institutions, multilateral relationships, and pacts to resolve political conflicts and global problems. Internationalist multilateralism was complicated due to the Cold world war that split the world into competing blocs and camps. Amid nuclear threat and military challenges, the United States established multilateral organizations and treaties with European and other nations to facilitate global security. Policies of containment and prevention alongside global organization of agreements shielded the United States from military attacks and set the outlines of the world organization from within where conflicts…

“God bless you, and God bless the United States of America” – Ronald Regan (Goldenthal 2015). Is our modern capitalist society where wealth is earned and maintained by private individuals originated from religion, specifically Christianity? Max Weber believed that religion played a central role in the western world’s economic development (Ritzer & Guppy 2014). In the article “God Bless America: How Christ became Central to Capitalism and US politics”, Goldenthal (2015) discussed the idea of how God or the idea of Christianization became the religion of the United States of America. The United States has not always used Christian terms to support their ideas of politics and capitalism.…
“The second presidential debate resembled a WWE match” (Carah Ong Whaley). On October 9, 2016 over sixty nine million people witnessed one of the most hostile presidential debates in American TV history. Aggressive negative attacks left viewers from both sides uncomfortable at certain points throughout the debate. However, other viewers seemed to be satisfied that the negatives of each candidate were being brought up substantially more so than they were in the first debate. Many viewers were surprised by the vicious back and forth engagement that took place in this debate.…
