Chief Justice of the United States

The Texas judicial system has been called one of the most complex in the United States, if not the world. The state of Texas is one of the seven states that uses partisan elections to select judges. Judicial selection begins with partisan elections and significant amounts of money for campaigning in order to win the election or reelection. Partisan elections influence the electorate in a consistent party label for the voting process. Another problem that the Texas judicial system lacks is…

to respond. As you may know, the United States Supreme Court upheld Obamacare subsidies nationwide in June of 2015. In a 6-3 decision, the court held that federal subsidies are valid even in states that did not set up their own state exchanges for Obamacare. The case centered on language in the original 900 page Affordable Car Act, which limited federal subsidies to those individuals who bought insurance through exchanges “established by the state”. Chief Justice Roberts writing the majority…

issue of the federal government meddling in states’ rights, but rather defending the natural, human rights granted to all. Lincoln speaks on the Dred Scott decision, the tyrannizing effects of the majorities in terms of slavery being a state’s rights issue, and how although the Declaration of Independence does not speak in direct terms about the social and political equalities blacks possessed, they didn’t foresee blacks remaining in a static social state. One of Lincoln’s main issues with…

what our forefathers put in place to make America a free country. The Supreme Court justices are all appointed for life to serve the constitution, justice and to keep the integrity of America in place. The court justices are hand selected by the president of the United States and normally are the same party as the president. Our current President (Barrack Obama) had the luxury of appointing two Supreme Court justices. He appointed Sonia Sotomayor, a previous federal district judge, and also…

proclamation was issued by the President of the United States, containing, among other things, the following, to wit: "That on the first day of January, in the year of our Lord one thousand eight hundred and sixty-three, all persons held as slaves within any State or designated part of a State, the people whereof shall then be in rebellion against the United States, shall be then, thenceforward, and forever free; and the Executive Government of the United States, including the military and naval…

In my opinion, the Trail of Tears (the Indian Removal Act) was an entirely unethical decision implemented by the government of the United States. It is insane to think the United States would do such a thing especially with a patriotic history. The Trail of Tears (1838–1839) was an eight hundred mile journey from the southern Appalachians to Indian Territory. Over 17,000 Cherokee had been evicted and 4,000, possibly more, died along the way. This was not only from harsh weather condition,…

The progressives became successful in their goals in many ways. The Progressive Era was an effort to get rid of the political, social, and economic problems during the Industrial Revolution. It took place from 1900 to 1917. The year 1917 was a significant end date for the Progressive Era because that was when World War I started. The idea of ¨social darwinism¨ had a big impact on these problems. The theory of Social Darwinism basically stated that the wealthy would grow in power, while the poor…

Hodgenville, Kentucky, is most known for being the sixteenth president of the United States. The time in which he was president was a hard time in American History, The Civil War. Before Lincoln had become president, he served as a legislator in Illinois; he also ran for U.S. Senate but he lost to Stephen Douglas. It was a memorable time in history because Lincoln went on to become the very first Republican president in the United States. Not only was he known for being the first Republican…

In the United States of America, its citizens would like to believe that the rule of law applies to everyone equally; however, current events create questions in regard to this theory. Democratic Presidential Candidate Hillary Clinton’s lies have far out-shadowed those of her contenders; however, her lies are so often contextualized, excused, and forgotten because of who she is and the purpose her lying supposedly serves. The FBI and the Justice Department have given her a pass on crimes that…
