Bill Clinton

George W. Bush, the 43rd president of the United States of America, has come under flak over the years for many reasons. One very secret and controversial topic is that he was the backer and secret cause of 9/11. Now, now Ms Weaver I know what you are saying, "How could you accuse our former President to be the cause of such a terrible, terrible tragedy?" Well the thing is is that Bush's actions and body language the day of 9/11 was a major key indicator. He was reading a story to young kids at…

The importance of participation in the democratic system was instilled in me by my family. I remember playing in the living room in the late summer of 2000 while my father watched the news, then dominated by Al Gore and George Bush. I remember liking Bush. My parents did too. He seemed warm and friendly, like someone I would enjoy meeting; a complete contrast to Gore who was calm, calculated and confident. At the age of 4, I began to grasp how important the election was, constantly hearing…

During my life I have personally encountered two us presidents. These two men have shown many special characteristics although the two have shown the same. To make it into office the Americans need someone with intelligence, decisions will be made that will affect millions of Americans and they need to know the consequence. A president that is swift to take action with the time arises is also a must have. These characteristics can make or break a president and many times throughout their office…

even though, Sanders states he is against the corrupt fund-raising groups. Sanders also is still managing to fall short behind Clinton and Biden in votes. Many people have doubted Sanders, but now with the amount of money that has been donated it has shown that Sanders has a good standing chance thanks to…

There were pleas for favors, as when a Democratic Party official emailed Chuck Todd, the “Meet the Press” host, for tickets to an exclusive NBC soiree. (“I can’t even get every producer on my cable show into the party,” Mr. Todd replied.) There were gripes about coverage, with party aides dismissing the MSNBC host Steve Kornacki as a “hipster pit bull.” And there was disdain for the frequent flattery by television journalists. When Fox News sought permission to sponsor a Democratic primary…

role. The people despise him, his coworkers can't stand him and foreign countries can’t bear to hear his name. He raises the question: is he qualified to run this country? There have been many candidates like pantsuit suit wearing liberal, Hillary Clinton but with that entire email fiasco, she doesn't seem like the appropriate contender. I believe the true quality to look for in a president is the ability to be a leader and not a boss. May I remind you that Donald Trump was a boss on the…

Cartoon Analysis This cartoon depicts the Alabama Senate election. Roy Moore was a candidate in this election, and he is displayed as an evil person surrounded by fire and lightning. This is referencing the sexual misconduct allegations against Moore and his ultra-conservative beliefs (e.g. homosexual conduct should be illegal and Muslims should not be allowed to serve in the Senate). Moore is shown at the bottom of a slippery slope and next to a sign saying, “alt-right”, which is a white…

In 1988, Republican George H.W. Bush and Democrat Michael Dukakis were engaged in a political campaign for Presidency. In the two ads I selected the tied into a certain political debate. Each ad could be categorized as a documentary because they relate back to a factual event. The Republican ad entitled, "Credibility," is a very serious tone and is set out to make Dukakis look very unprofessional. The demeanor they present him as makes him look foolish and laughable. While the language isn't…

to legislation? In the United States, there is a process that all bills must go through before being enacted into law. This process begins when a member of congress proposes a bill in either the house or the senate. Once a bill is introduced, it will be transferred to a standing committee and eventually to a subcommittee. These committees will then send the bill back to the house or the senate with a written report. Then, the bill is issued to a rules committee for scheduling, and, afterwards,…

The media is an integral part of society’s political system. The media has vast power because just about all Americans get their news from the media. The media’s coverage can determine how Americans’ see the world and the media decides which issues are important and should be discussed. From the political standpoint, the media performs many functions important to the political process. The media not only reports the news, but it serves as the liaison between the people and the government. In…
