Conservative Party

prevent that from happening by electing people to represent them in government. The people vote for those whom they think will best represent them, the people vote for who has the same ideals as them, and the people vote depending on which specific party they register. The “Pledge of Allegiance” states that America is a republic. A republic is defined as a form of government in which the people act for their own benefit and not a sovereign ruler. As a republic, the voters of the United States…

Federalists, while the uneducated, backcountry farmers called for equal representation under the Anti-Federalists. A 19th century example of tension between populism and elitism, is big business, Social Darwinism, and the formation of the Populist Party. During the 1800s, big businesses began to have booming success. Such as, Rockefeller with oil and Carnegie with steel. These business then began to integrate…

That’s the case with J.D. Vance, author of “When It Comes to Baskets, We’re All Deplorable.” Vance is an opinion writer for the New York Times, in a column titled Hillbilly Elegy (Vance). In his article, he states his opinion mainly on the Democratic party, Hilary Clinton and Barack Obama, while throwing a lot of assumptions, bashing, and harshness into the mix. Vance shows us how Hilary is being narrow minded when she referred…

Should Proof of Citizenship be Required to Vote? The United States today is split between two political extremes. On one side are capitalist conservatives and on the other side are progressive socialist liberals. Both parties are campaigning on a brutally embittered battlefield for the presidency of the United States in 2016 and the integrity of our nation’s polls are under scrutiny. The issue in question is, “Should it be mandatory that a citizen of the United States be required to show…

A topic that I find interesting would be the US Constitution, more specifically the checks and balances system. It was formed to maintain a form of equality amongst the three branches of government. Although this is a topic that has been lectured throughout my American education, it continues to be relevant being that it is implemented into our government infrastructure. As most of us know, checks and balances are, in a sense, a form of protection- protection from the government, that is. It…

Research Question/Sample Population, and Sampling Strategy In todays political climate, it is my firm opinion that, active informed (citizens and/or voters) of the United States need to take firm action, and understand what is going on with each of the candidates running for political office, especially in regards to the presidential race. Getting involved does not simply mean we are understanding what they stand for domestically, we should also have a firm understanding of…

When looking at political matters I could personally say that I could lean both ways if the argument is valid, or if I believe in the curtain issue. If I were to pick a political party that I consider myself, I would say that I’m Liberal. I have many different views on things and when looking at the values and beliefs of Liberal, I lean more to the left. When I took the political ideology quizzes, the quizzes also said that I am Liberal in many issues. When looking at different social Liberal…

“Don't expect to build up the weak by pulling down the strong” (Coolidge qtd Brainyquote). President Calvin Coolidge said this about increasing taxes on the wealthy. He cut taxes four times, because he felt excessive taxation is nothing more than a restriction upon the freedom of the American people. Former President Calvin Coolidge and future President Donald Trump both can and have run businesses efficiently, even though their personalities differ extremely. John Calvin Coolidge was born…

Given the increased political power Republicans won in the last elections, from Washington to red-state legislatures, voters might expect the party to feel that the nation’s voting procedures are working quite well. Yet this is far from the case, as triumphant Republicans are using their enhanced clout to continue their campaign playing up the mythical threat that voter fraud abounds in the nation. The newest and loudest zealot in this cause is, of course, President Trump, with his scurrilous…

Summary: On Saturday, The Obama administration called for a cap on assessment so that children would not spend more than two percent of classroom instruction taking tests. It called on Congress to “reduce over-testing” as it reauthorizes the legislation controlling the nation’s public secondary and elementary schools. In a recent study taken by the Council of the Great City Schools found students who attend big city school will on average take 112 standardized tests from pre kindergarten and…
