social status still become his competing resources. This is why when Donald Trump announced his running for president, great waves were caused in the United…

The anti-smoking campaign presented by NHS (see fig. 1) clearly illustrates the severity of becoming addicted to smoking. Not only is it an addiction, but a habit that one cannot escape and will eventually be the death of that individual. Through use of scare tactic and logic regarding the outcome of fish whom become hooked, NHS construes a touchy and effective ad that delivers the harsh reality of cigarette smoking in order to save or help those potentially affected. The consequences of…

Every November, more than 100 million people in the United States pull the lever in a voting booth and walk away with a sense of civic pride and fulfillment, not realizing in the slightest that they have been robbed of their most fundamental democratic right –– the right to pick their leaders. This unfortunate phenomenon is inhibiting and uprooting every fiber of our democratic society and the tenets upon which it is built. It goes against everything that more than 600,000 servicemen and women…

For every lack of transparency on the email scandal, there’s a lack of transparency on Trump’s finances. For every accusation of Clinton selling access, there is yet another case of Trump buying access. At the end of the day, neither candidate is going to win an award for ethics. This makes it impossible to use character as a deciding factor in…

Government funding provided benefits to serve the needs of the people and check and balances stop parts of the government from being too powerful again to protect the people. Also, things like presidential campaigns and campaign finance give the people the power to vote for who they feel should be president. The heads of government are normal people who are just like us and have the same views as us so I guess you could say that American democracy comes from the…

and elections. Both involved protracted struggles for power, strategizing, fundraising and research. Political campaigns in the U.S. even borrow several terms from warfare, further demonstrating their congruence. Campaigns strategize in “war rooms”, put their fundraised capital in their respective “war chests”, “mobilize” campaign members and confront their opponents in “battleground” states. The results of the 2016 U.S. presidential election were shocking to many, as the polls systematically…

closing months of the campaign. First, she will need to petition to young people of all backgrounds and ethnicities, in regards to the nation’s immigration laws and policies. Currently, our immigration structure, in the United States is not working well. I believe this necessitates pressing attention to this topic. Hillary Clinton should continue to pledge that there will be no deportations. Mrs. Clinton should emphasis that everyone who wants to come to the United States, should be permitted…
